I remained confused.
Until it hit me.
'Five people murdered in a hotel.'
"Shit, shit, shit." I whispered to myself, attempting to lift my body away from the stirring body on the floor. "I bloody knew you weren't Taehyung."
"Taehyung deserves to die."
I lifted my head in fear, propped up against the wall was 'the other half' of Taehyung; staring me down like a hawk. His voice was sharp and aggressive; possessed with intimidation. Taehyung told me to leave him alone when he's the other personality, but that wasn't the main source on my mind; it was my least worry.
I should've listened.
"Who— are you?" I stuttered- my failed attempt of trying to look brave as if I'm not afraid.
"V. And who are you? Dead in a fucking minute." There was anger in the way he spoke, psychotic, crazy. He released an eery laugh at the end of his statement, amused by my fear.
"I may be bandaged up but I can snap your neck in a second. Just like I did with that innocent family on Halloween."
"Why would you do that V?"
"For fun."
"You're sick, you know that right?"
Wrong words. Shit.
"Say that again, I dare you." V snapped, standing up and gliding over to my gullible state. He made everything look easy; no one would've guessed he just woke up from an anaesthetic dose. He bent down so his face was level with mine.
My breathing was heavy, my heart was beating outside my chest. The tension between us was painful, I just wanted to melt through the floor and never come back. His hand relocated itself to the beginning of my jawline, slowly tracing down to my chin. I shivered to his touch; his eyes sinking right through mine, not a single break in eye contact.
His hand slowly began to move down to my neck, wrapping his long fingers around-gripping on to it; just an inch away from my wound. I released an audibly loud gulp, causing a sly smirk to develop on Vs face.
The grip tightened.
And tightened even more.
I widened my eyes in fear, understanding exactly what he was doing.
As his grip became its tightest, I was gasping for air; latching onto his wrist in attempt to pull him away. The lack of oxygen was creating a blurry cloud in my head; my vision started to fail.
"T—taeh-hyung." I called with my remaining breaths.
"Tae-hyung!" I loosened Vs grip slightly by digging my nails into his hand, allowing me to use my additional time to switch his personalities.
"Taehyung doesn't want to fucking come back. Do you understand?" He snapped, even more angry with the fact I dug my nails into his skin.
"Taehyung! You said— you — you would never hurt - a girl!" I spoke the facts Taehyung informed me earlier on in the day. It wasn't working.
"Taehyung!" I used all my might to let out a shout, immediately gasping for air when I felt the release of his strong hand.
V slumped down, ruffling his hair. I used this chance to shuffle along the wall, hand on my chest to assist in catching my breath. Except it wasn't V.
Taehyung was back.
"Anna?"
"Fucking stay away from me." I cowardly scrunched myself up in the corner of the room.
"What the fuck Anna, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh 'I would never hurt a woman' haha that's not what just happened!" I mimicked his voice, raising my own at the end.
"Anna! I don't know what your on about!"
"The fact that you almost fucking killed me! You were practically choking me to death Taehyung!"
His face dropped, regret invaded his face.
"Anna. Please listen to what I'm about to say." His voice became soft, making his way over to my frail body.
"Oh fuck off. I trusted you!"
"It was V Anna! Don't you get that?" Frustration began to rise in the way he spoke; as if everything he told me earlier went down the drain.
"Yes! I get it! You said you were working on it! That didn't look like you were working on it at all!"
"I am! Did you say anything to V?!" Taehyung was yelling in pure anger now, his moods changed in a flash of lighting.
When I rethought the entire situation, I was talking back to V despite being told not to.
"You did didn't you." Taehyung looked as if he was about to break into two, he easily read my face like a book.
"I couldn't fucking ignore him! He was saying his plans on killing another family in a hotel!"
"You're so thick Anna, I TOLD YOU NOT TO DO THAT! No wonder he tried to fucking kill you!"
I sat there, frozen. Looking up to Taehyungs angered state. He cracked his knuckles; trying his hardest to calm himself down.
Breaking the silence, the door smashed open.
"What's wrong with you two?! Your emotion trackers are soaring through the roof and we can hear you yapping all the way down the hall!" An old nurse stormed in, approaching me with handcuffs and locking them into place while I stood up.
"Maybe don't put me in the same room with him then? Common sense." I snapped, earning a glare from both Taehyung and the nurse.
The door slammed shut behind us, leaving a hot and bothered Taehyung in the chamber while me and the near- retired nurse led me down the corridor.
"It's a shame." She began.
"What's a shame?" I bluntly asked with no emotion.
"You and Taehyung. You're both quite similar yet so different. There's something about you both I admire."
I looked at the nurse in curiosity and confusion.
"Anna, he never communicates with any other patients; unless arguing with them. He will barely talk to workers if he can get away with it!"
"Well then maybe he should control his anger issues and become a better person."
We were just outside my cell but before she placed me inside, the nurse grabbed a hold of my shoulders.
"He's had a troubled past Anna. Living with his condition isn't easy."
"Yeah, and I completely respect that! It's just he needs to learn how to control his temper." I began to relax slightly, rethinking everything that just crossed my path of life.
The old aged nurse just sent me a soft smile, folding her arms over her chest.
"You're going to teach him."
