TW: Domestic Abuse. 

His little heart hated the atmosphere he just stepped into. 

It was physically cold outside, but inside this place he called home, even his bones felt the chills. 

He could hear his father screaming to someone in the living room. 
He hated how he needed to cross it to get to his room, but, he crossed it anyway.

"What do you mean you have no idea where they are staying!?" The little boy flinched when he heard his father yell at a man who was basically cowering in fear.

"W-We tried but the information was disclosed and-" 

"Then take your boys and search every fucking hotel in the city and find where those bastards are staying!" The man said, grabbing the man's collar.

The boy saw this and his face went pale for a moment. He definitely wouldn't want to be spotted by his father right now, but it was inevitable, like always.

"Stop right there you little brat.. come here" Izzy gulped when he heard his father's harsh tone and even though he wanted to run to his room and lock himself up, he knew doing what his father told him to do would be the best decision he would make. 

Taking a deep breath, he walked closer to his father. The other men in the room showed slightly concerned expressions as they looked at their boss and then back to his son who was holding everything in him to not show he was scared. All because his father hated seeing him so weak all the time.

Izzy saw his father's cold blue eyes glare down at him, sending shivers down his spine. The man's eyes then shifted to the unfamiliar scarf around the boy's neck and his eyes widened in rage. 

"So you're begging people now? You're telling me that what I do for you is not enough? You stupid little-" He raised his hand, but before he could finish, the little boy yelled out in fear, desperate to explain before got beaten.

"I didn't! I didn't! the people you're looking for gave me this!" Izzy blurted out, and the male froze for a moment. His eyebrows furrowed as he laughed mockingly before grabbing the little boy's collar.

"What are you even talking about? So you've been eavesdropping  on me?" His father asked threateningly, which only made the boy even more scared. 

But he knew there wasn't any going back. He needed to tell the truth and tell him everything he knew.

"Yes... Yes I-I'm sure it was them" Izzy mumbled, his voice weak out of fear. The man scoffed before harshly letting go of the boy and taking out his phone before bringing it to his face.

"You're telling me you've met them?" Mr.Miller asked, tilting his head intimidatingly. The younger was quick to nod as he immediately recognized one of the male's faces from the picture. 

His face looked kind even from a picture. 

The man's expression changed a bit, his eyebrows furrowing as he looked at his son. 

"So.. since you know what I discuss with all these men here... I'm sure you clearly know that we're trying to find out where they are staying... did you ask them about where they live?" He asked, looking down at his son who just silently shook his head.

Another annoyed chuckle left the older man's lips as he glared down at the boy. 

"What was I even expecting from my useless son? Go to your room" He said before turning away and the harsh words felt like a stab to the little boy's heart. He tried being so good for his father, to once receive the love he knew his father was capable of giving.

Maybe he was just not enough yet. 

Maybe someday he will get it.

The men in the room watched as the boy quickly made his way to his room; some of their expressions told that they felt bad while others found twisted amusement in the situation.

"Sir... I have a suggestion" One of the male's suddenly spoke, capturing Mr.Miller's attention.

"What if we use your son?" The man suggested and Mr.Miller's eyes hardened a bit before he looked away. 

"Think about it... he already met them... and he's a child.. he's easier to control and even if he makes a mistake..." The man trailed off, a smirk playing on his lips.

Everyone in the room was able to understand what the man was saying, and so did Miller.

"And I already have a plan of how we could use him..." The other man said, making Miller look at him. 

As the next few words slipped out of the man's mouth, the rest of them looked at each other and murmured while Miller's lips curved into a devious smirk.

"That sounds perfect" He muttered.

"So the next place is the stadium?" Jeongin asked as he walked alongside Jisung and Chan at the front. You, Hyunjin, and Felix were showing each other the pictures you took in the art gallery, while Minho and Changbin were getting all the details about what Jisung and Seungmin did after their little argument that morning as he walked between the two.

The nine of you reached the stadium and the watchers immediately let all of you in, and you were in awe of how big it was. 

The fact that every seat was taken was even more insane. 

"rehearsals will start tomorrow.. so we'll be here most of the time" Chan informed and the boys nodded, excited. 

"Can I come too?" You asked and the boys glanced at you, smiling. 

"Ofcourse you can, princess" Changbin said sweetly with a small chuckle, as if it was more than just obvious that you could come see them.

"But the thing is, just standing around may be boring and we might need to make some records and plans with the hosts... you might get bored of waiting for us all alone for a whole two or three hours" Chan said as he looked at you before grinning. "Which is why, I planned and got you another hotel room booked right next to here until the concert ends.. so you can go there when we're too busy," He said.

You chuckled a bit.

That was considerate of your soulmate. 

It was true that you'd be bored staying at the stadium when none of them would be free- and you certainly didn't want to become a distraction as this was such an important event for them.

You wanted them to do their best too.

And besides, then you could chat with Yuqi and Pan during that hour or finish reading that book from that orange app that Seungmin talked you into downloading on your first date with him.
