Into the woods

It was dark and cold. The wind was howling furiously, threatening to tear jackets off bodies. I followed him silently into the woods.
Suddenly, he stops. He glances swiftly in my direction. He knows that I'm here.
"Why did you follow me?"
"I know what you are"
"Tell me."
"I can't..."
"Say it."
I opened my mouth to reply, but out of nowhere a light appeared blinding my eyes. Leaves and dust flew everywhere as the glowing light came closer and closer.
"Stay here"
He left me standing there all alone. I have my suspicions. I need to know what he does.
I watched as he greeted the alien people. They addressed him as 'V'. My feet were frozen, unable to function. The aliens talked in a foreign language. Taehyung replied in the same lauguage. My mind whirled with confusion and disbelief.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"I can't. You would've freaked out."
"Well I'm freaking out now!"
"I didn't ask you to follow me."
"I would've never found out if I didn't follow you!"
"It's for the best. I want to protect you."
"But you could've told me!" I cried.
Slamming the door, I yelled out in frustration. Taehyung's real form scared me. I don't even know what to think. I ran up to the rooftop and cried.
Soft footsteps came up behind me.
"Hey...I'm sorry.."
"Stop. Seriously. Don't talk to me."
"Come on..."
I stood up angrily. "DON'T TALK TO ME. OR EVEN COME NEAR ME."
"Careful!"
Suddenly, I slipped. I felt my body go down. I'm going to die.
Invisible hands held onto me, pushing me upwards. I felt my feet on flat ground. Relief surged through my body. Warm hands held me. "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? Please talk to me!"
I looked into Taehyung's warm worried eyes and sobbed. "I'm sorry for being a bitch."
"It's okay. As long as you're safe."
Crying, I buried my head on his body, wrapping my arms tightly around him. "All I want is for you to be safe. I'll protect you. Forever. So please...stay with me."
