Eyes of a Target

Chapter 10

Taehyung continued to watch the movie in front of him until he heard a faint click of the door. That meant that Seokjin was home, he wanted to greet him but his leg was pretty sore from the walking he did today. So he decided against it.

He then heard footsteps in the kitchen along with the dropping of plastic bags. Taehyung looked up and saw three, full bags of various amounts of food. Why does Jin-Hyung have so much food on him? Is he making something special tonight? Taehyung thought with wonder. He knew that the male loved to cook, so hopefully he gets to try something new today.

Taehyung then gets up from the couch, pausing the movie. And starts making his way over to Seokjin, slowly but surely. He is limping and walking at a slow pace, but he is not feeling any pain in his leg, thankfully.

"Tae! What are you doing?! You can't be walking this much, it's not good for your leg!. Sit down please" Seokjin slightly yelled at Taehyung in worry, he does not want the male to injure his broken leg more than it already is. The brunette then came over to the vampire, helping him over to one of the chairs at the high table. Quickly checking his leg for any swelling, but thankfully there wasn't any. Soekjin then let out a sigh and walked back to the kitchen to put the newly bought food away.

"S-sorry.." Taehyung said in a small voice, not liking how he made his hyung angry. He didn't want the brunette to get mad at him and kick him out. Or possibly punish him for doing something he wasn't supposed to. He then looked down at his lap and nervously fidgeting with his fingers. Breaking his nails and scratching him up, a very bad habit for him to do but he couldn't really stop doing it.

He then heard Seokjin sigh softly and heard him making his way over. Taehyung started to tense up and flinched when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He then looked up and saw a soft gase on Seokjin's face, calming him down.

"It's okay Taehyung, I'm just worried about your health that's all. I didn't mean to scare you, I would never hurt you if you did something wrong, okay? Remember that, no one will ever hurt you again. I'll make sure of it." Seokjin said in the most kindest voice Taehyung as ever heard. The vampire then looked into his eyes and nodded, accepting his apology.

Seokjin could make out some brightness in his eyes. Meaning that the male was relieved and happy, though he has never really seen the male smile. He had to look in his eyes to see what he is really feeling. But he would take it over seeing any other emotion on Taehyung that he has seen when he first met the small boy.

Fear and emptiness.

Was all that he saw the first time he met him. Now he is seeing happiness and calmness in Taehyung's eyes. And that brings a huge smile on his face.

Taehyung then went back to his bedroom, with the help of his hyung of course. But he heard from him that there is going to be a huge dinner and he is invited. Well it's not really huge, but a few more people will be there. Including Seokjin's husband; Namjoon.

Taehyung was sitting at the dining table, seeing a few people that he kind of recognized. There was Jackson, Yoongi, and Hoseok at the other side of the table. Talking with each other, not even noticing the shy vampire at the other side of the table. Seokjin was sitting next to Taehyung while waiting for his husband to arrive. He is also keeping his eye on Jeongguk who is doing nothing but staring at his phone.

A loud sound of the door opening erupted throughout the dining hall. A tall, muscular man came into the room. He had purple hair that swept to the side of his face, which was holding a bright smile. Taehyung could make out that this was the alpha wolf that Seokjin was talking about earlier. This male had a smell of musk and pine, the average scent of an alpha wolf.

The purple haired male then sat down next to Seokjin and gave him a kiss on the cheek. His attention was brought to Taehyung. Causing the small vampire to flinch a little bit and look away from the wolf. Taehyung felt a hand on his back, more specifically Seokjin's hand, telling him that it is okay. The blonde then shyly looked up at the purple haired male again, seeing him smile sweetly at him.

"Hello, you must be Taehyung that my Jinnie has talked about. Nice to meet you, my name is Namjoon" the said male brought out his hand to give Taehyung a hand shake. In which Taehyung returned with a stiff arm, once their hands connected Taehyung quickly pulled his hand back to his lap.

This action didn't bother Namjoon one bit, he knew that the small vampire was extremely nervous around him. Or anyone in general. He then brought his attention to his husband who started to dig into the food in front of them, adding some to Taehyung's plate.

Taehyung was slowly eating the food, he doesn't know why but he is not that hungry. The food in front of him is actually making him want to throw up, he wants to have something else instead. But he doesn't know what he wants.

So he just sits there staring at his food, which is now looking gross to him. Taehyung doesn't know what to do, he would like to excuse himself from the table but he didn't want to be rude. He also feels dizzy as well, losing control of himself and feel him succumb to something.

A darkness tries to control him and take over him, making Taehyung lose over his body. He doesn't know what is going on. He can feel his body shake, something screaming inside of him to just let go of himself. But Taehyung doesn't want to do that, he doesn't trust that screaming voice.

So he tries to fight against it. Which was hard for him to do, he feels this battle inside of him that is fighting back and forth with him. Pulling on a string that was about to break, breaking the connection Tae had with his own body.

Taehyung has never felt this way before. This pain and battle going on inside of him.

Something in him snaps, the string breaking. Taehyung losing absolute control of his body. The string that was holding him up to the surface breaks, letting him fall into a pit of darkness. He then falls to the ground, but not being able to see anything.

All that he could make out was a few blurry images of people fighting him. More people running in to hold him down. But that's it.

He can't see anything and has no idea who took control over his body and what is going on. He is scared. All the blurry images and all he could do was curl up in a ball and cry at nothing.

So all he could do was helplessly sit there until someone was finally able to pull him back up to the surface.
