SAVE ME - TAEKOOK

Chapter 14

He laid Taehyung's head on his lap and backed up against the headboard while stroking Taehyung's hair, an action he found out Taehyung seemed to like a lot.

 "I'll tell you the whole story.........

*FLASHBACK*

Taehyung's POV

I was peacefully sitting on my bed, drawing in my sketchbook when I heard a soft knock on my door. I looked up to see it was my stepdad, Josh. I reluctantly let him in.

 "Hey, kiddo! What are you doing?"

 He said as he sat down on the bed next to me. 

"Just sketching..." 

"Let me see...."

 He leaned over as he placed his hand on my inner thigh. I shift in my place as I try to get his hand off.

 "Could you teach me how to draw like that?"

 He asked in a slightly lower and creepy tone. I hesitantly nodded. I shifted ahead so that he could get a clear view of the drawing. He sat behind me and placed his hands on my waist and I slightly flinched. 

"What are you doing?" I questioned as I tried to get up. 

But his grip on my waist was too tight and I couldn't get up. Suddenly, I felt a pair of lips on my neck and my eyes widened. Before I could process what was going on, I was sleeping on the bed, my hands pinned above my head.

 "Let go of me..." 

"Shhh...It's fine"

 I squirmed and kicked with all my might but it was of no use. Josh's head suddenly dipped down as he started kissing my neck and one of his hands lifted my shirt. 

Tears were streaming down my face non-stop as I shouted at the top of my lungs, but no one heard me. I finally managed to push him off the bed and grabbed a knife from my drawer. 

"Stay right there. Don't move ..or I'll use this."

 I threatened and ran out of the room. I saw my mother in the kitchen and ran to her.

 "Mother....... J-J-Josh. H-he"

 She turned around with an irritated look on her face and said, 

"What? Just say it." 

"He sexually assaulted me, mother."

 "Are you crazy! What are you saying? Isn't it enough you're gay alone, why are you dragging your father into this, huh?"

 "I'm telling you the truth; he sexually assaulted me." She started beating me again. 

Josh rushed down the stairs and just stood there. My mother dragged me up the stairs, which made me graze my knee multiple times. 

"DON'T DO THIS MOTHER! I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH! LET ME OUT OF HERE" 

I screamed as I banged on the door. I sat there for the next few hours, crying my heart out, as the scene kept replaying in my head. A while later I heard a knock on the door and stood up. 

I grabbed a bat that was lying in the corner of the room as the doorknob twisted. The door opened revealing Josh, who was standing there with a smirk on his face. 

"Let's continue where we left off, shall we?"

 As he walked towards me, my grip on the bat tightened and I hit him hard on the leg.

 He fell on the floor with a thud and I ran off. I ran to my room, shut the door and locked it. I took my phone and with trembling hands, I called 911. A lady answered, 

"911, how can I help you?" 

"H-h-he" I stuttered as the words got stuck in my throat and tears ran down my face. 

"Oh, you're crying. Okay, what's your name" 

"T-Taehyung"

 "Okay, Taehyung. Please calm down and tell me what happened. I'm your friend."

 "H-h-he sexually a-a-assaulted me." 

"Who? Baby. You can trust me, I'm your friend." 

Taehyung heard a thud on the door and stepped back. He knew it was Josh. 

"J-j-j-Josh, my step-father" 

"Okay, how old are you, my dear?" 

A large thud followed aggressive knocks on the door.

 "14" 

"Okay, I'll send the police to your house. You're safe now, don't worry. Should I stay on the line?"

 "Yes please" 

After a few minutes, Taehyung heard a bunch of police sirens and could hear the shuffling of feet on the other side of the door. 

Josh ran down the stairs and just when he opened the door the police entered and arrested him. Taehyung opened the bedroom door, with the knife in his hand. 

All this commotion had woken up his mother and she rushed out of her room. When the police questioned her, she acted like she cared for Taehyung and even cried. 

When the police left the place, she screamed and shouted at Taehyung. After that, he solely focused on taking care of Minji and his education.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Author's P.O.V

By the time Taehyung had finished telling the story, Jeongguk had tears in his eyes. He made Taehyung sit up straight and gave him a tight hug. 

"I'm so sorry you had to go through all that. But, I'm here now and I will make sure you and Minji won't have to go through that again." 

He kissed him on the forehead and laid him down on the bed. Taehyung snuggled into his chest and Jeongguk wrapped his hand around Taehyung's waist. 

"I love you" 

Jeongguk whispered when he thought Taehyung was asleep, but Taehyung heard and smiled.
