taehyung was in trouble. big trouble.

somehow, yet again, he'd managed to make more people hate him.

"hey venom?"

'mm?'

"remember when I said i'd die for you?"

'mm?'

"yeah, well I take it back."

'classy.'

just as the response was spat back, another bullet whizzed past taehyung's left ear. venom was one step ahead as he took over the brunette's left arm, attaching to the nearest wall, pulling up and swinging onto the balcony.

"come out little boy, don't you want to have some fun?"

obnoxious snickers could be heard.

'remind me how we always end up in these situations?'

...what kind of question even is that.

he ducked down and pushed over a stray cardboard box before pressing up against a wall of an alleyway.

'why do you even get gangs chasing you anyway?'

are you seriously asking this shit now??

'hey, if this relationship is going to continue to work out, you need to be more honest and open.'

taehyung scoffed.

fine. short story shorter, druggie father racks up a bit debt with drug gang, drug gang want money, druggie father doesn't pay money, drug gang go after son.

'oh. y'all humans are complicated. where i'm from, we rip each other's heads off.'

...classy.

he held his breath as he heard footsteps passing his hiding spot. they faded, indicating safety.

let's go?

'let's go.'

taehyung quickly looked upwards and raised his arm, venom extending himself through it and propelling them through the air and onto the rooftops.

he sat on the edge of one of the buildings, staring at the skyline - before grinning mischievously in sight of a certain person.

on the other side of seoul, jeon jeongguk chugged down what appeared to be his sixth beer. he stood up, wobbling slightly, before running his hand through his messy fringe.

he let out a groan at the sudden headrush, before placing down some change on the tabletop.

he exited, and the crisp cold air hit his lungs. he pulled a packet from his pocket and was about to light a cigarette when a smaller male whipped it from his hand and winked at him playfully.

"careful, mister jeonggukkie, smoking kills."
