he was running; running blindly. the never-ending woods seemed to only thicken with each stride he took. flying over the rocks, bumping with the trees and he was out of breath. but he ran like his life depended on it- perhaps it really did.
'he can't save you. no one can'
a voice ripped through the air, echoing and then fading away, ringing in his ears. he ran even faster.
but then he tripped and fell. when he got up to run again, the entire woods was set on fire.
the fire consumed the world around him like even nature was angered at him. now there was nowhere to run. he was stuck, in the fire that blazed, coming closer and closer.
the voice whispered.
'you'll die at the hands of your beloved mate'
taehyung's eyes flung open, eyes that were full of tears- overflowing the moment they snapped open to stare at the ceiling. he clenched his clothed chest, trying to take in shaky breaths.
"taehyung..." a voice, sharp and unexpected sliced through the silence beside him. with a groan, he strained his neck to the left, a man coming into view seated beside him.
he took in the sight of the beautiful man. his eyes stuck on his face that was contorted with worry. taehyung gulped and then blinked rapidly to clear his vision before using the bed frame to leverage himself into a sitting position, which was a lot of work.
a groan left his lips as he sat up. his head felt as though it was getting hammered. he squeezed his eyes shut and grabbed his head with both hands before lowering it and groaning in pain.
a hand then reached out, meshing with one of his hands that was on his head. taehyung flinched, snatching back his hand and gripping it with the other while almost glaring at the man in front of him.
"w-who are you?" he glanced around, blinking. "and where am i?"
jeongguk sat there, silent. he might have a blank look on his face but his insides were thrown into disarray. no no no he isn't supposed to forget me! his inner chaos was interrupted by another groan coming from taehyung who crouched his head down onto his lap and gripped his hair frustratingly. "ugh...."
"hey, hey... dol- taehyung... taehyung. are you okay?" jeongguk tried to move closer but taehyung snapped his gaze at him, glaring even. "y-you..."
"you're my neighbour right?"
okay. pause.
jeongguk gaze drilled into taehyung's, staring hard enough to waver his gaze to see if the human was just acting but seeing that vehement look in his eyes, jeongguk felt a sense of relief. it... worked. he smiled, dimly before nodding his head.
