Crazy in Love || TaeKook

Chapter 8

Flashback

Dawon was in the kitchen cutting up an apple when she heard the door to the house open, the first thing she hears is her brother's explosive laughter. She rolled her eyes smiling as she continued, "Is anybody home?" She heard him call out.

"I'm in the kitchen, Hoseok!" Dawon called out as she got the peanut butter out from the cabinet. Hoseok came into the kitchen and Dawon looked over and saw a boy with orange hair, "Oh who is this?"

"Hello, my name is Kim Taehyung. It's a pleasure to meet you." He bowed and then stood straight up again, "Hoseok talks very highly of his older sister."

"Shoosh, Taehyung. She's not supposed to know that." Hoseok told Taehyung and then he looked at his sister who was dipping her apple in the peanut butter, "This is the boy that I was talking about."

"Oh? Well, I'm surprised my little brother could catch a good-looking guy like this one." Dawon watched Taehyung as he was walking around the kitchen.

"Where's mom and dad?" Hoseok asked as he followed Taehyung and grabbed his hand.

"Out." Dawon was a bit confused as to why Hoseok stopped Taehyung from wondering the kitchen but she didn't worry about it. "Alright. You two have fun with whatever you're going to do. I'm out with my friend. It was nice to meet you, Taehyung." Dawon looked at Taehyung closely for the first time in the eyes and she saw someon who was very hard to read. She walked by the two boys, grabbed her purse and jacket and left. She ran to the car was waiting in their driveway which was Yoongi's car. She got in the car and greeted Yoongi, "Hey. I'm sorry I was a bit slow, I was eating and talking to my brother and his friend. Do you know this boy?"

"I don't know him personally no. Hoseok said he's been hanging out with a second year and I thought it was weird because it was so sudden." Yoongi answered as he reversed out of their driveway. "Are you okay, Dawon?"

"I felt nauseous being around that boy. I don't know what it is because he's a perfectly normal boy but I cannot shake off this weird feeling I have around him. I hope I don't sound to weird." Dawon looked at Yoongi, almost asking for reassurance.

"No, it doesn't. Don't worry, I felt it too." Yoongi said as he grabbed Dawon's hand and smiled.

"Yoongi...did you ever notice that Hoseok had feelings for you?" Dawon asked Yoongi while looking at their hands. "I know you had feelings for Hoseok so why didn't you act upon those feelings?"

"Because he's too good for me. Seeing him smile now with Taehyung is something I cannot get in between. Mainly because I feel something is very wrong with him. He may appear to be very mannerly but I can tell there's a darker side to him but he makes Hoseok happy that I can't interfere." Yoongi expressed his worries to the sister of the boy he had feelings for.

We should've stopped Hoseok...otherwise he'd still be here. Dawon thought as the former lover of her brother was laughing his head off, "Where is your sorry ass, Taehyung?!" Dawon demanded to know.

"There's no need for us to shout at each other. You know the farm my family lived on, meet me there and I will give you what you've been looking for: the location of your brother's body." He offered but Dawon wouldn't buy it.

"Why on earth should I believe that you would go back to the location of your family's murder? You told me when I found you at the police station that night that you couldn't bear going back there. What happened to you that night?" Dawon asked.

Flashback

Taehyung and Hoseok were cuddling with each other while cuddling Taehyung's little siblings who were fast asleep as they watched a movie. All of the sudden they hear the door slam open and in came three people with guns invading the place. "Excuse me, what do you think you're doing in my house? Get out before I call the cops." Taehyung's father demanded protecting his family.

"Sedate the boy, kill the rest." One of the men nodded as he went into the living room where Taehyung and Hoseok were, the two kids were hiding behind their big brother.

"Leave us alone. Please. I beg you." Taehyung pleaded until the man stuck a needle in the young boy's neck and injected him with a sedative. The last thing he saw was Hoseok fighting the attacker off before he fainted.

Taehyung was finally coming to when he noticed what looked like a factory, "W-Where am I?" When he realized he wasn't in his house, he panicked until a gun was pointed directly at the middle of his forehead.

"We're taking you to our leader. I suggest you come quietly." The person who was pointing the gun at him was tall with an innocent face but his eyes read differently. Taehyung was terrified and all he wanted to do was run into the arms of his lover and his family.

"What did you do to my family?" Taehyung was preparing for the worst but the goons had picked him up by the collar of his shirt and dragged him into the factory. I can't stay here...I have to be strong. The fact that Taehyung was terrified but he couldn't stay a scardey cat forever. He clenched his fist and gave the tall young man a crazy right hook and got out of his hold. It was just that one for now when Taehyung found out where he was. He looked down over the ledge to dozens of vats of acid. I heard about this stuff...I should stay away. I need to find my way out. He heard voices surrounding him.

"Where are you Kim Taehyung?" The attackers called out to which Taehyung looked around and knew he didn't have a chance. He was nothing but a 16-year-old boy who was studying to be a scientist, specifically a chemist. "Spread out, you, go to the bottom floor and make sure he's not in the vat of acid."

Taehyung closed his eyes and took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. He covered his face and smiled to himself, what do I have to lose?

Taehyung found an unprotected ledge and he positioned himself to fall into the acid, that's when a goon spotted him, "Stop right there."

"Why would I go with you guys, alive when I could just jump in this and end my life right now?" Taehyung's face was wet from the tears he was shedding but there was a smile on his face, "You took away the two things I loved only because you believe I have a mental illness that is a threat to those around me? See you on the other side of hell." Taehyung laughs as he throws himself off the ledge. His intention was to kill himself but instead he was cursed -- or gifted in his eyes -- an enternal state of insanity.

Dawon had made it to the hospital as fast as she possibly could after finding out that Taehyung had been admitted to the hospital. She needed answers and details as to what happened. When she found his room and him bandaged up from the burning of his skin from the acid. "Taehyung...are you okay?" She held his hand, I need to watch this boy for Hoseok. "I'm here for you...we can be there for each other."

"You..." Taehyung's voice was still deep but it was certainly darker. "You're joking right? Hoseok died and now you finally decide you care about him? This year you've not contact Hoseok once. He dies and now you decide to use me to give you information. Why don't you witness your family get brutally murdered and you can't do anything because you've been sedated? It should've been you that died, not Hoseok."

Dawon let's go of Taehyung's hand and backs away, "What happened to you?"

Present

When he was done telling his story, Yoongi took a shaking Dawon away into another room and Jimin took the phone, "Taehyung! Put Jungkook on the phone. I need to talk to him."

The deep voice was replace by a playful voice, "Well hello, Jiminie~ How is Jieun? I hope she enjoyed our night together considering she's been wanting one together one last time. We gave her quite the gift. Hopefully she learned her lesson for showing her face to me. If you do that one more time, show your face to me, I'll give your little brother the gift of death."

Just as Jimin was going to respond he heard an explosion and the line go dead. "JUNGKOOK!"
