Stay With Me [A Taekook centric Brotherhood AU]

04

Tae's heart pounded in his chest as he slowly turned his head towards the source of the voice. A tall, burly man stood before him, his face partially obscured by a hooded sweatshirt. Tae could feel the man's hot breath on his neck as he demanded his belongings.

-I said give me your stuffs. Now...faster!' that bastard of a robber screamed again, this time more vulnerable as he approached near Taehyung.

Tae's heart was pounding so loud he could barely hear the man's words. He looked around frantically, hoping someone would come to his rescue.
But the park was deserted, this is almost 2 in the morning, what do you expect? His hyungs doesn't know where he is as he didn't told them his whereabouts when he left and now he was completely alone with this dangerous stranger...

The much he was scared about his money or phone, he was way more scared of the thought what if this guy recognize him as the idol? He will be totally doomed then!

That is why this is not safe to stroll in a public place alone, let alone the odd timing like this! He will be surely assaulted if this dude recognizes his face anyhow!

Freaking hell! He shouldn’t have left the building!

Tae's mind raced, trying to come up with a plan to get out of this situation. He knew he couldn't fight the man, but maybe he could try to reason with him. "Hey man, I don't want any trouble," Tae said, trying to keep his voice steady, "Why don't you just leave me alone?"

The man only laughed in response, the sound sending shivers down Tae's spine. "I don't care what you want, just give me your stuff," he growled.

Tae took a deep breath, trying to keep his fear in check. He slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out his wallet, holding it out to the man. "Take it, just please leave me alone," he said, his voice trembling.

The man snatched the wallet from Tae's hand and quickly rifled through it, taking out all the cash before tossing it back at him.

-That's it? You better have something else on you," he said, stepping closer to Tae.

Tae's backed up as he tried to figure out what to do. He had heard stories of people getting mugged in the park before, but he had never imagined it happening to him. He considered trying to run, but he knew he would never be able to outrun the man.

-Is that all you have?" the man growled, grabbing for Tae's phone.

-You got the money, now leave me alone!' Tae held onto the phone tightly, his knuckles turning white as he refused to let go.

-I want that phone too. Fucking give it to me!' The man growled and struggled with him for a moment before suddenly lashing out, punching Tae in the face and sending him sprawling backwards.

Pain radiated through Tae's head as he struggled to get back up. He could see the man looming over him, ready to strike again. Tae knew he had to act fast if he wanted to get out of this alive. He tried to dodge the next kick the man gave him on his stomach, but he was late.
So the kick directly hit on his tummy making him scream in pain and clutched the area, crawling like a ball in the ground.

As Tae lay on the ground, gasping for air and trying to regain his bearings, he felt a surge of fear and desperation wash over him. He knew he had to do something to defend himself, but he was too weak and disoriented to fight back.

For god's sake! He is freaking tired and exhausted already!

Summoning all his strength, Tae forced himself to stand up, facing the man with as much courage as he could muster. "Listen to me," he said, his voice shaky but firm. "You don't have to do this. We can work something out. I'll do anything, just please don't hurt me." he don't even what and why he was speaking to this bastard!
