"Jiminie!" Taehyung yelled, gently but quickly hugging Jimin. "I missed you so much. What the hell. I was so worried." Taehyung says, crying ugly tears. " 'M sorry Taehyungie." Jimin says nuzzling his cheek. "No no, don't apologize. It wasn't your fault. Are you okay? How badly are you hurt?" Taehyung asks, lifting up Jimin's shirt.

He gasps at how many bruises and cuts there were. There were more, and he knew it too. Taehyung lets go of his shirt and hugs Jimin again. "I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry. If only I hadn't been late— No. I can't say that. I can't make it about me. That's selfish." Taehyung says. Jimin shakes his head. "No, Tae. It's not your fault, and that doesn't make you selfish." Jimin says.

Taehyung sniffles. "I'm sorry Jiminie." Taehyung says quietly. "Are you sure you're okay with contact? Ya'know..since." Taehyung trails off, Jimin just chuckles. "I'm fine Taehyungie, I'm us- I'm strong." He corrects himself quickly, smiling after saying his sentence. Taehyung nods "Yeah, you are strong."

"I'll stay the night." Taehyung suddenly says. "Tae- No you can't." Yoongi butts in. "Why can't I?" Taehyung responds back quickly. "Because-" A crash heard downstairs cut Yoongi off. "Stay here." Yoongi says, his face going serious. Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows and just nods. Yoongi leaves the room quickly.

"Taehyungie, I think we should hide." Jimin says, his eyes trained on the door. "What? Why?" Taehyung asks and Jimin rubs Taehyung's head. "Don't ask. Just do." Jimin hums, and Taehyung just nods. He and Jimin get up, Taehyung helps Jimin carefully. "Where? There's no where to hide." Taehyung says and Jimin smiles softly. "Closet. I know, it's cliché but it's the best." Jimin said, and Taehyung nods leading Jimin to the closet and he opens it.

Moving some clothing out of the way, he helps Jimin sit down and get comfortable and then he gets in himself, making sure to give Jimin all the room possible. Taehyung closes the closet doors, and the two best friends go quiet, waiting for someone or something to open the closet. It was quiet, way too quiet. How could it be this quiet?

Taehyung's breath hitches in his throat when he hears gun shot, and what seems running. Then, it was quiet again. Not a single noise could be heard, not even a mouse. Taehyung's breathing heavies when the door opens. Jimin grabs Taehyung's hand and rubs it with his small fingers, trying to calm Taehyung down. The footsteps walk around, seeming to look everywhere.

Then, the footsteps stop and a hand is put on the closet handle. Taehyung holds his breath, scared for his life. Whatever was happening, was not safe. It slowly opens, until the persons name was called. "Selgui! We need back up." Someone yelled, and the closet remained a tad bit open. The person named 'Selgui' quickly left the room, and after what seemed like four minutes, Taehyung peaked out of the open spot.

"Tae-" Jimin says softly, his voice cut off by the closet door slamming open harshly. Taehyung gulps, looking up. He shouldn't have done that. The person in-front of him stood tall, he was buff, huge, and scary looking. The man smirks. "I've never seen you before, but you're pretty." Taehyung's eyes showed fear, fear that he's never felt before.

He couldn't move, he was terrified. Who was this man? What did he want? And why was he here? The man grabbed Taehyung by the shoulder and forced him up. "Where's Jeon?" He harshly asks. "J-J-Jeon? I D-Do-D-Don't know who th-that is—" "Bullshit!" The man says, gripping Taehyung's shoulder tighter. "You can just be here, and not know who Jeon is." The man growls, and Taehyung's eyes fill with tears.

"I-I-" "Stop fucking stuttering and spit it out, whore!" The man pins Taehyung to the wall. "I d-don't know who he is!" Taehyung yelled, and the man groaned. "Guess I'll just have to beat it out of you." He says, getting ready to punch Taehyung. Taehyung closes his eyes, waiting for impact but it never came. Instead he heard a gun shot, and his eyes slowly opened as the grip of the man was gone and he heard a 'thud' fall to the floor.

Taehyung gasps when he sees the man, his head covered in blood and so was the floor, and his feet. He was terrified, it's not everyday you see someone get shot in the head. Taehyung felt like throwing up, and he did, he threw up on the floor. He couldn't stand the look of blood. The person who shot the man, watched as Taehyung threw up his dinner. When he got a clear look at his face, which wasn't for long because Taehyung had started to pass out and fall to the floor, he mumbled. "Mr. Kim?"

And Taehyung was out like a light. Jeongguk cringed when Taehyung fell into the blood. "Disgusting." He says, before looking at the closet as Jimin came out of it. "Taehyungie!" Jimin says, rushing over to Taehyung ignoring Jeongguk. "Taehyungie? You two know each other?" He asks.

"Yes! Dipshit!" Jimin yells. "Help me get him up! We have to clean him and then we'll let him rest." Jimin commands and Jeongguk sighs and nods. "Fine."

"Where am I?" Taehyung asks himself, the comfortable feeling of the bed felt nice on his aching body. He doesn't remember much, only the part where he threw up. He sits up quickly, this wasn't his house. Taehyung noticed his phone on the stand next to the bed, and he quickly grabs it to read the time.

"11:14 am.." Taehyung mumbles to himself and sighs. "Class hasn't started yet." "That's what your worries about? Your class? Instead of being almost beaten to death?" Someone says and Taehyung quickly looks at him. "Wait, You're Jeongguk!" Taehyung says. "You take my class." he adds and Jeongguk nods. "Yeah, I do."

"Wait. What was that? Why did you kill that man? Why was he trying to hurt me? Where's Jimin!?" Taehyung said, Jeongguk groaned annoyed by all the questions. "Stop asking so many questions." Jeongguk says, and walks over to Taehyung. "But I want to know what happened! Jimin is hurt, where is he? Who exactly are you? Just answer me!-" Taehyung complains but is cut off by Jeongguk. Jeongguk had his lips pressed onto Taehyung's, making him shut up.

Jeongguk pulls away 12 seconds later. "I said to stop asking so many questions." Then he walks out. Taehyung sat still, shocked. His first real kiss was just stolen by a murderer.
