Remember me (BTS AU)

Obsessed

  'Stop it. I didn't leave you! Why are you doing this?'

The screams awoke Taehyung. He jumped out of bed. He looked around with bleary eyes. Hoseok was not in the room.

'Hoseok!' Taehyung called.

He ran towards the screams and crashed into the bathroom door. The door was locked.

'Leave me alone!' Hoseok whimpered.

'Hoseok!' Taehyung pounded on the door. 'Let me in!'

'No! Go away!'

Taehyung swallowed the instant feeling of heartache. Hoseok is scared; he does not mean that. He told himself. He quickly fetched his phone and called Namjoon.

'Yes?' Namjoon answered sleepily.

'Namjoon, Hoseok has locked himself in the bathroom. He's screaming, and he won't let me in. Please, can you help?'

'I'll be right there.'

Taehyung hung up. Oh, please hurry Namjoon. He knocked gently on the door.

'Hobi, please open the door.'

No answer. Taehyung fought the urge to cry. He sat down against the door, waiting for Namjoon to arrive.

'Hoseok?' Namjoon tapped gently on the bathroom door. 'Hoseok, it's Namjoon. Can you open the door, please? I need to see that you're okay.'

A moment of silence. Then a click sound of the lock and the door opened slowly.

'Hoseok!' Taehyung gasped, horrified by what he saw.

Hoseok's shirt was ripped, his lips bleeding, his left eye swollen and slightly closed. He ignored Taehyung and looked to Namjoon.
'Namjoon, help me please.'

'Don't worry, Hobi.' Namjoon held Hoseok. 'You're safe now. Come sit down.'

He half-carried Hoseok into the living room and slowly eased him down onto the sofa. Taehyung put his hand on Hoseok's shoulder. Making Hoseok yelp and jump closer to Namjoon.

'No!' Hoseok screamed. 'Don't touch me!'

'Baby, It's me.' Taehyung held back the tears.

Hoseok continued to cling to Namjoon.

'Please, keep him away. He will hurt me!'

Namjoon hugged Hoseok. 'Okay, okay. I won't let anyone hurt you. Try to calm down, okay?'

Namjoon shot a worried glance at Taehyung, who was crying silently.
Taehyung headed to the bedroom and closed the door behind him.

'Hoseok,' Namjoon said. 'I should take a picture of your wounds. And then I will clean you up.'

Hoseok blinked at Namjoon. 'Why?'

'To show the police that you are hurt.
'
'Oh.' Hoseok still looked confused, but he nodded. 'Okay.'

As Namjoon finished cleaning Hoseok's face, Taehyung came out of the bedroom with red eyes from crying. He saw Namjoon on the sofa with Hoseok in his arms. Even though Taehyung knows that Namjoon is not gay, he still felt jealous. He had never liked to see anyone with their hands on Hoseok. Taehyung remembered back a few years ago before Hoseok had even felt anything romantic towards Taehyung. Hoseok was in a relationship with Jimin, but Taehyung still felt anger and jealousy towards Jimin for having what Taehyung wanted for himself. To this day, Taehyung still felt terrible about his behaviour back then. His actions had led to the separation of Hoseok and Jimin. Taehyung had always wanted Hoseok, as days, months and years passed, he seemed to long for Hoseok so much more. That beautiful smile that can light up any room and steal hearts. the shiny eyes and that killer jawline. Of course, it took Hoseok some time to accept Taehyung, as he was with Jimin and Hoseok refused ever to be a cheat. He put up a good fight against Taehyung's constant sexual advances. The times Taehyung would softly stroke Hoseok's thighs and stroke his hair. What finally broke Hoseok down though, was when Taehyung had dragged him away from the others, pushed him up against a wall and kissed Hoseok's lips hard. He made Hoseok realised that he did have feelings for Taehyung, that he could not keep fighting it. And so, his relationship with Jimin was broken. Leaving Jimin distraught. Taehyung and Jimin fought each other regularly for a while. Eventually, Jimin gave up, determined not to lose his friends completely like they had lost Yoongi. Jimin took a step back and pined for Hoseok in silence.

'Is everything okay?' Taehyung asked.

Hoseok jumped and held Namjoon tighter.

'Yes.' Namjoon answered. 'I called the police. They said they would send someone here.'

Hoseok whimpered as Namjoon stood. 'No.'

'It's okay,' Namjoon told him. 'I just need to speak with Tae.'

'Keep him away.'

Namjoon sighed. 'I promise.'

He pulled Taehyung into the kitchen and lowered his voice. 'I don't think he's well Tae.'

'What do you mean?'

'Well, there's no one else here. No one was in the bathroom with him, but, he swears that Suga was there.'

'But,' Taehyung said. 'His face, he was beaten.'

'I think he may have done that himself.'

'No, he didn't. Namjoon I-'

Namjoon held Taehyung's shoulders.

'Tae, something is not right with him. I told the police that no one else was found here. They said to call a doctor. He will be here soon.'

Taehyun'g eyes filled up. 'How can I care for him if he won't let me near?'

'He will. Just give him time to calm down. Something has clearly shaken him, and he doesn't understand.'

'I love him so much, Namjoon. I don't want to hurt him.'

'I know.' Namjoon hugged him. 'He loves you too. Remember that.'

Taehyung nodded and wiped away his tears with his sleeve.

'Okay, I need to be strong for him.'

'And I'm always here to help, alright?'

Taehyung nodded. 'Thank you, Namjoon. 'Everything would be a hell of a lot worse without you.'
