"Mom?" Taehyung whispered softly into the phone, waiting for a reply. He felt a wave of relief flow through him as a small fit of breathing reached her ears, he wasn't alone on the line, talking into nothing hopelessly for an answer.

"Taehyung."

The woman seemed to sigh in relief, her voice wavering as she breathed out heavily. Taehyung had no idea as to why she was so worried. He really did not care that much anymore, either. His parents were like strangers to him now.

"Why haven't you picked up my calls? I've called you countless times. You better come home right now."

This froze Taehyung, but also somehow made him mad. How could she control his life so simply now, she had no clue as to who he killed, who he loved, who he was now.

"You have missed so much school that your grades have dropped to barely anything. I keep getting calls and your father got arrested because of your absence at school."

Taehyung sighed into the phone, the lady was boring him with all her problems. Couldn't she think about him for once? How he feels about going back?

"I'm not coming home, mom."

The line went dead silent.

Taehyung felt a hand squeeze his thigh, taking away all the worrisome nervous energy in his cells. He looked over at Jungkook and smiled softly.

"No! I'm not going through this again. I'm still mourning the day you were kidnapped. Don't tell me you've gotten Stockholm Syndrome!"

Taehyung let a soft blush fall on his cheeks. He definitely has Stockholm Syndrome. Theres no evidence against it either, he was undeniably in love with Jungkook, his kidnapper. How this happened was a true, unsolved mystery to him.

"No! Think of all the things this person has done to you! Probably tortured you endlessly and now you love them."

Taehyung took her advice, thinking of all the things Jungkook had done to him, hug him, cherish him, celebrate the smallest things and make him incredibly happy.

"Yep, its Stockholm syndrome." Taehyung declared, watching Jungkook as he raised an eyebrow, trying to piece together the conversation the two were having on the phone.

"Who has you captive anyway? I've placed lost signs and articles, but we cant seem to find you, Tae. Please."

"Jeon, he has me, and don't worry mom. He's not so bad."

"What! Do you know how many people he has killed? Taehyung, he is very dangerous and you should run from there? Are you tied up or something?"

Taehyung giggled at this.

"I'm sitting next to him, mom. Trust me, he won't hurt me, he's been the reason I am not dead for however long I've been here. I truly love him mom, I hope you understand."

"I don't! I don't get how you can stay with that murderer and even sit beside him. He has killed too many to count and he might kill you! How could you love a man like that?"

Taehyung sighed.

"Bye, mom."

"Wait no-"

Taehyung hung up, a few seconds later, he received another call from his mother. He silenced it and faced it down, turning to Jungkook, who had a grin on his face.

"What?"

"You said you loved me."

Taehyung's lips parted into a smile. "Because I do."

Taehyung chuckled as Jungkook connected their lips, as the noise of Taehyung's phone vibrating in the road rocks was in the back ground.
