*slight violence? strong language*

"who the hell do you fucktards think you are?" taehyung growled as he approached the table, which seated three boys with greasy hair all smirking at one another.

"ooh~ who are-"

"shut the hell up and tell me what right you have that allows you to touch someone who doesn't want it!"

taehyung grabbed one of their collars because he had started to open his mouth to speak, but truthfully, angry tae didn't want an answer from these pigs. he wanted to threaten them and make them leave town, and hopefully stop messing with vulnerable people who did nothing wrong.

"i never want to see you animals in my town. nobody deserves what happened to him that day. how dare you?" taehyung was growling under his breath, but the boys didn't seem to fear taehyung. they still sat, laid back in their chairs without a care in the world, actually excited to be making someone angry.

"so scary!" one joked around, wiggling his eyebrows. "where's jeon? we had to drop him off a little early before we could finish, we had him so-"

taehyung didn't mean to do it, he just wanted to use his words to make the pigs leave. but, the ugly words they were using when speaking about jungkook made up taehyung's mind.

he had smashed his fist right into the speaking pig's face. he hit him so hard a tooth went flying out of his mouth, landing in the middle of the table. it was disgusting. taehyung scowled in revulsion and pulled away from the pig.

"keep talking utter bullshit and see what happens," taehyung seethed, pointing a tattooed finger in their direction.

"really city boy? you wanna threaten me?" taehyung had no idea where the phrase 'city boy' came from, as he's only ever lived in small towns, but he figured the pigs were complete idiots and brushed it off.

"yeah, little pussy jeon over there couldn't get enough of u-"

taehyung kicked the other under the table, right in his jewels, causing his body to heave forward and smack into the table harshly. but the boys kept smirking, pretending nothing would scare them off, not even a little pain in their crotches.

taehyung reached over to the one who remained untouched so far and grabbed him by his hair, in the other hand he held a butter knife that was just begging to be picked up from the table.

"if i ever see you pigs near me, or anyone else, i will not hesitate to cut off your noses and ears! get lost now!" and as the three saw taehyung move the knife closer to the boys face, they began to fidget in their seats, thinking the threats may have actually been real. they were all bark when it came to fights, but no bite.

taehyung wasn't ever patient, so he became extremely frustrated about their delayed reactions and finally took their sign of not leaving as a token to hurt them some more. taehyung dropped his hand from the pig's greasy hair and moved it to his nails, ripping two off at once.

the pig squealed loud and jumped out of his seat, his head hitting the lamp above them. taehyung turned to the other and raised a bold and dark eyebrow, almost as if he was asking if they wanted their fingernails ripped off as well. they shook their heads and sprinted off, out of their seats, out of the store, out of town, and out of everyone's life.

running away with your back facing your opponent, what a cowardly way to end a fight.

//if anyone has read the iliad: for some reason, i thought of hector and achilles during the end of this, idk//

taehyung had basically escorted jungkook home. holding him by his slim, doll-like waist and looking around the street at anyone who seemed threatening. tae felt bad that jungkook had to witness seeing them again, and felt bad for also acting violently in front of him as well. he just wanted to bring the boy and let him draw to his heart's content.

so, when they arrived at taehyung's home he led the boy to the middle of the floor and brought him some ink and paper. jungkook seemed out of it though and only stared at the paper, his mind hadn't moved on from what had just happened.

taehyung just sighed and started to work on cleaning up the second floor, he was looking to get the top two floors finished off, and then have a talk with jungkook about what he wanted to do for the first.

yes, taehyung knew he was going extremely fast, considering the fact he was thinking of moving jungkook in with him, but he felt that was the right thing to do at this point. he didn't have another place to stay, and the two were infatuated with each other, so that was a plus.

taehyung sucked in a breathe after he finished cleaning and slowly walking down the stairs, a little nervous what he wanted to say to jungkook.

jungkook was sitting on the floor staring at a sketch he made of a snake. his arms were covered in silver graphite and his face sagged in fatigue. he was tired and wanted to sleep.

"hey, jungkook. can we talk for a few minutes? it's important."

//would any of you read my other books? i only have one other out right now but have lots of ideas. i'm wondering if people would support them.//
