"n-no, g-go away!", taehyung yells, waking jeongguk up.

"tae?"

"g-go!"

"what? w-"

"p-please d-don't h-hurt me."

jeongguk frowns but realizes quickly that taehyung is having a nightmare.

"d-don't t-touch me, p-please."

"hey, tae. tae, wake up.", he says, softly shaking taehyung's shoulder.

but when he still mumbles some things, jeongguk has to shake his shoulder harder than before.

"w-what?", taehyung wakes up.

"it's me. jeongguk.", he says in the softest tone.

taehyung starts to sob, making jeongguk pull him closer.

"psh, it's okay. it was just a dream, you're fine.", jeongguk says, stroking taehyung's hair to calm him.

taehyung hugs him tightly, crying into his chest.

"why?", taehyung cries. "why me?"

"because you're really beautiful tae and people are bad, just caring about their own needs."

"n-no, i-i w-wish i-i was.", taehyung says.

jeongguk frowns because taehyung is the prettiest boy he has ever seen.

"of course you are. don't say that."

"i-it's ok. d-doesn't matter. let's go to sleep."

"are you sure? do you want to talk?"

"n-no, thank you. i'm sorry for waking you up."

"it's okay, pretty. don't worry."

taehyung blushes but luckily jeongguk can't see it because it's dark.

taehyung wakes up, ready to cuddle jeongguk even more since he's still tired and wants to sleep.

but he frowns when he feels that no one is there with him.

he opens his eyes to see that jeongguk is gone.

"huh?"

he stands up and goes downstairs to see his brother in the kitchen, making breakfast.

"hyung, where is jeongguk?"

"good morning to you too."

taehyung rolls his eyes.

"he went home. said that he got some things to do."

"oh, okay.", he says, trying not to sound too sad and disappointed.

"why?", namjoon asks him, making taehyung feel nervous.

"n-no reason."

"aha."

taehyung gulps.

"a-are you mad at me?", he asks and namjoon looks at him confused.

"why would i?"

"b-because i-i was with j-jeongguk last n-night."

namjoons gaze soften.

"no, i'm not. i told him that it's ok when you guys spend time together."

"w-what? really?", taehyung asks shocked. namjoon is always really overprotective when it comes to taehyung. so him being that chilled about taehyung hanging out with another male, surprises him.

"yeah. i trust jeongguk. he wouldn't hurt you." this words are doing something inside of taehyung's stomach.

he smiles.

"yeah. thank you."

"taehyung, your teacher told me that you've become worse in maths."

this is the first thing taehyung's father says to his son after not seeing him for one week or something.

"hello to you too, dad. i'm fine, thanks for asking."

"don't act like this taehyung, you're not five years old."

taehyung clenches his fists but takes a deep breath to calm himself down.

"yeah, maybe i've become worse."

"then work. i won't accept a bad grade at the end."

with that taehyung's father leaves, going to his bedroom after the butler just brought his and his wife's bags there.

"next week special guests from the uk will come for a visit. we need to go shopping tomorrow to get a outfit for you.", taehyung's mom says.

"mom, my wardrobe is almost exploding, just take something from there."

"no. we will go shopping at 10 am. be ready then."

"10 am??"

his mom doesn't respond and also goes upstairs.

he groans.

~

"5.000 $ please."

taehyung and his mom are in the mall to get taehyung an outfit.

they only got a pullover until now, because his mother is an annoying perfectionist.

"mom, let's just buy the pants from the store before, they looked good.", taehyung groans, not wanting to
spend another 3 hours in the mall.

"they looked good but not good enough." taehyung clenches his fists.

this will be a long day.
