"Where do you want to go, Honey?" Taehyung asked.

"Honey?" Jungkook laughed at Taehyung's choice of nickname.

They were walking in a dark alleyway. The sun had gone down an hour ago, and the stars were out. Jungkook liked the stars. he thought they were pretty. They reminded him of Taehyung. Although Jungkook couldn't always see them, he knew that they were always there.

"Stop laughing! I just wanted to try it. See if I liked it." Taehyung pouted.

"I'm sure you can find a better one." Jungkook smiled. "I'll go wherever you want to go," he added as an answer to Taehyung's question.

"There's a karaoke place a few blocks down. We can go there if you want."

"Sure."

Taehyung took Jungkook's hand leading the way. They turned around a corner, into an alleyway with no light source at all. Despite the lack of light Taehyung kept on walking, determined to get to the karaoke place.

They turned around more corners, but there was still no light to be seen. Only never ending darkness.

"Tae?" Jungkook's voice was small, he almost sounded scared.

Taehyung stopped in his steps, turning around so he was facing Jungkook. "Yeah?"

"I'm scared of the dark," Jungkook said.

It didn't matter how bright the stars shone, or how much Jungkook liked to look at them. He certainly didn't like the dark. Somebody could be hiding around the next corner, and they'd have no idea. The thought frightened Jungkook.

"It's okay. I'm here. I won't let anybody hurt you. I promise." Taehyung said, taking Jungkook's hand before starting to walk again. This time making sure Jungkook was right by his side.

They walked a bit more, turned left once and right twice, before they could see the neon sign in front of the karaoke place.

"Look, Kookie. It's right over there! By the ne-"

Taehyung fell to the ground in the middle of his statement. It took a few seconds for Jungkook to process what happened. He sat down next to Taehyung, tears streaming down his face as he panicked.

"Tae!" He shook Taehyung's body. "Please, Tae. Wake up. Taehyung! Please, please, please, please," Jungkook pleaded, while screaming for help.

A hooded figure walked toward them. Jungkook didn't think twice before yelling. "Help! Please help me!" The figure ran towards Taehyung and Jungkook.

"What happened?" He asked, crouching down next to Jungkook.

"I don't know, he just collapsed," Jungkook said.

"Good," the man said.

"Good? How can it be good? My boyfriend is unconscious in the middle of a dark alley! I don't see how that it good!"

"Is he your boyfriend?"

"Yes, but that doesn't answer my question."

"I guess that means I have to take you, too," the man said.

"Take me?" Jungkook asked. "You did this? You are the reason he's unconscious?"

"That seems quite harsh. But I am part of the reason why he won't be on the ground in a minute." The man smiled. "Come with me. I'll help you."

Even though the man seemed questionable, Jungkook followed, dragging Taehyung after him. At the moment it didn't matter what the man would do. Anything was better than Taehyung being unconscious on the ground.
