Taehyung looks beautiful

Ever since he started sleeping on Jimin's place his angel is looking gorgeous.

The silver haired has gained some weight which makes him appear a lot healthier, and the smiles are slowly becoming more and more frequent on his face.

He is so ethereal, how could Jungkook hurt such a heavenly creature?

If it was him... If only Taehyung had chosen him over the raven-head back then...

—Hey, Tae Tae—calls Jimin to what the other lifts up his gaze—I think I'm going to start taking the night shift for a few days, you said you wanted to find a job so I can help you with that having my mornings free.

Taehyung thinks about it for a bit in silence, he doesn't want to be alone at home at night, it's somehow terrifying, especially now that the nightmares are increasing their intensity, however, and to be very honest, he is starting to feel like a nuisance to the older boy.

For the past weeks the help he has received is much more than the one anyone could ask for and he feels in debt with his friend in a whole new level.

It's true that he isn't literally asking for it, Jimin has mostly offered to do everything, but what's also true is that maybe he is accepting too much, that's why he needs to find a job, to at least pay rent and living expenses.

—I know you are scared of the night—says Jimin startling the younger—but this was the best solution I could come up with, mostly after you've been mentioning the job thing for a couple of days now—he then gets closer to Taehyung and take his hand between both of his—it'll be less than a week, don't worry, okay?

The silver haired nods slightly, but he is worried, very worried, he wants to ask if Hoseok can come over to sleep but it would be too much trouble, he would, once again, be asking too much.

Just a few days ago they met him.

It was a coincidental encounter on a nearby café.

While Jimin was taking their orders the orange haired boy recognized him right away.

By then, Taehyung already knew who was the male in front of him, his friend had showed him numerous pictures of the group, back in the day they still used to hang around together, and to be honest, memorizing the names was the only thing that could make him feel near home.

Hoseok, that was his name.

He seemed to be well aware of the situation regarding the younger's memory, that's why the first thing he did was introducing himself, he also asked some few questions, maybe just to test the waters, starting like that a very trivial (and nice) conversation as Taehyung waited for Jimin.

Naturally, the orange haired ended up sitting with them, bringing with him a bright smile and cheerful mood for the whole time they spent there, which was such a plus, given the fact that he still didn't feel entirely comfortable around Jimin by that time.

Unlike the weird feeling he had with the black haired, the new-comer was able to awoke a spreading warmth inside his belly and chest.

Hoseok was an amazing guy, indeed

—Maybe...—Jimin begins thinking out loud—... No... I don't think you want him to come over...

The whisper is just loud enough for Taehyung to hear hence why his eyes immediately light up.

—Who?—he asks innocently although the silver haired is 95% sure they are talking about their other friend.

—Hobi—and hearing the sweet nickname was never as satisfying, making him nod frenetically—he shouldn't be very busy tonight... but I'm worried, he may make you feel uncomfortable, after all you've only seen each other twice.

They both fall in silence for a bit before Taehyung opens his mouth.

—I think it'll be better to have someone...

And it's true, if he thinks about the consequences of having a panic attack while Jimin isn't home, they are far worse than making him invite a friend over, it would be troublesome otherwise.

If there's something Taehyung knows how to do well, it's being sure of his own limits.

—Maybe I can try and take some days off, or...

—No!—interrupts the ash-haired—Please don't do that, you've already done enough—hearing these words the elder looks at him in the eye, facial expression full of worry—I'm okay with Hoseok, I can do it.

And even though Taehyung tries his best to convince the other Jimin seems to be quite hesitant, however, still with his eyes stained with concern, the boy ends up calling the older male to ask if he can come over to take care of his friend.

Jimin has already left the apartment an hour ago and Taehyung it's just watching TV while Hoseok finishes cleaning the dishes, he insisted so much on doing it that the younger had to give up and let him, but that, somehow, makes him feel bad.

He wants to think that's the reason why he is feeling so strange, however if he is truthful to himself, ever since they were left alone, he's been having some kind of weird vibes, the reason is still unknown, but his body is really tense and stiff, it has been like that during dinner time too, every bite he gave under Hoseok's intense gaze was extremely umcomfortable.

"I asked Jimin to let him come over, I was the one who convinced him" Taehyung feels the need to remind himself.

Nonetheless there's something wrong.

There surely is.

The orange haired seems to be a little different too, his smile bigger, yes, but also faker, it's just an off aura surrounding him entirely. Scary.

And even though the ash-haired realizes when he still has the opportunity to go out and escape, as always, his mind tricks him into thinking he is wrong, he probably is just thinking too much about useless stuff, he's probably only going to ruin everything as he did while living with Jungkook. But what if he is right?

It's not until Hoseok finishes and sits right by his side, so close when the space is so wide, that a chill runs down his spine.

The smile getting distorted on a horrifying grin on a matter of seconds as he starts speaking.

—I've always wondered, why did you choose him... instead of me, tell me why, my beautiful angel.

"Taehyung is naive, and being weak and easy to led on is what makes him such a nice prey for his hunter".
