Rosietaehyun's Taegyu One-shots

Story 1

"As parents, we want what's best for our child."

Mr and Mrs Kang pleaded.

"Please find Taehyun a good match so that he won't leave the world a lonely soul.
We'll pay you no matter the price."

In a morgue laid the lifeless body of a young boy that used to dream so much about what his future would be like.

Standing around him, a mother, a father, and a man who would be the one to bond the young boy to an unknowing stranger.

A lock of soft brown hair was carefully cut from his head and placed into a obnoxiously red satchet.

A red satchet which would be unmissable if it was ever in sight.

Whoever was to find that satchet would be forcefully wed to the soul of the young boy.

-

For the 4th time this week Yeonjun had requested for his younger brother, Kai to ride their new bike to go into town and buy him lunch.

It was annoying to Kai that as the younger brother, he basically signed a contract to get ordered around even before his birth.

Hoping to get this errand over and done with, Kai started speeding down the streets, not even bothered to wear his helmet.

Bad choice.

A stray rock on the pavement sent Kai tumbling down to the grass field nearby.

As he struggled to pick himself up, the stinging feeling settled in from the scrapes.

That's when a bright red caught his attention, standing out from the greens of the grass field.

He didn't think much of it, but it looked fancy, so he tossed it in his bag before getting back on his bike.

-

Back at home, Kai had just tended to his wounds when he remembered the red satchet in his bag.

He opened the red ratchet revealing not only the contents...

...but also a split second glimpse of a deathly pale boy that seemed to appear out of nowhere.

In the second the sunken eyes that seemed to not have any form of emotions or life in them had scared Kai unconscious.

A red thread had wrapped itself around the pinky of an unconscious Huening Kai and the soul of a dead boy, Kang Taehyun;
signifying the forced bond that had formed.

When Kai came to, he was still beyond afraid. Wrapped up under a blanket, scared to move anywhere to the point that he had to pee into an empty plastic bottle, oblivious that Taehyun was standing right there.

Taehyun had frowned and looked away.
-

"Please help me, I don't want to marry someone I don't know."
With overflowing desperation, the young boy pleaded at the wizard's feet.

This wizard was the owner of a hotel catered to souls on their way to the other side.

Rarely ever fazed by anything after having lived in a time stuck in limbo for 1000s of years, the wizard, also known as Min Yoongi, grew a tendency to just not be bothered.

"Just go along with the marriage and move on to the next life, you're already dead in this life anyways, does it really matter?"

At that, Taehyun could only remain silent as a kinder looking man ushered him into a hotel room that was prepared for him.
