The blood in the dusk - A BTS fanfiction

Minna's POV

It was saturday. Taehyung and I decided to secretly meet at stream behind the park.
I got ready and went down to see Jungkook and Anna laughing at something.
I smiled, looking at the two.
"Oh you're here", I said coming into their view.
"Hi Minna! I came to check up on you guys", He smiled.
"Hmm... i know really well whom you came to check", I teased making Anna glare at me as Jungkook scratched the back of his head.
"Uhh...", Jungkook stuttered.
"I was just messing with you", I smirked as Jungkook relaxed his shoulders.
"Are you going somewhere?", Anna interrupted.
"Oh yeah... i'm heading to meet Taehyung", I told her.
"Are you sure it's safe going out with him?", Jungkook questioned.
"Not really.. ," I shrugged.
"Whatever... be careful. Call us if something happens", Anna spoke and i nodded.
"I'll take my leave then! You two... enjoy", I winked and let the house while chuckling.
I preferred walking instead of driving there since the weather was nice enough.
Soon i reached the park. I smiled slightly watching as the kids running around as i walked through towards the other end of the park.
Walking a little further i stopped as a familiar back came into my view.
He had his back towards me and was facing the beautiful stream that stood before our eyes.
"Did i keep you waiting for long?", I spoke, approaching Taehyung.
He turned around after hearing my voice and smiled.
"Ani... i just came 5 minutes ago", He shrugged.
We sat down with under a tree. I laid my head on his shoulders as he intertwined his fingers with mine.
Even such a gesture was enough to make my heart race.
We didn't say much but stayed in each other's embrace, Savouring the moment.
I retreated my head and glance at Taehyung's face. Making him turn towards me.
"What?", He asked while brushing a strand on my hair behind my ear with his gentle fingers. His gaze soft enough to make me melt.
"Nothing... i was just wondering how it would have been if we were like the normal couples", I spoke with a slight smile.
"Hmm... I believe if we were like the normal couples then you would've been pregnant by now already", He smirked.
"YAHH!!", I shrieked while hitting his arm making him laugh out loud.
"Byuntae!", I tched while controlling my smile, which made us laugh more.
We were interrupted as my phone beeped.
I opened the text that Anna had sent me just now.
"What is it?", Taehyung asked, curiously leaning to read the text.
"Anna sent in a video. She says both of us should watch this. It's a clip from yesterday's cctv footage. Yoongi said he had spotted the man who shot the gun talking with someone else before it all happened. And that person seems to be known but he can't really grasp around 'who' actually is he", I explained.
I played the video as both of us watched it. The man with the gun was talking with another tall man. He seemed handsome.
I narrowed my eyes at his face, trying to think of who could it be. My gaze went to Taehyung as soon as i felt him stiffen.
He had his eyes still on the phone although the video ended.
"Do... do you know who he is?", I asked cautiously.
He gulped and turn his head back to the front.
"Taehyung-ah...", I got cut off by him.
"Seokjin Hyung...", He said in a cold voice. His face was now expressionless.
I hated it the most when he'd turn emotionless.
I noticed his breath uneven and fist clenched.
I gulped not knowing what to say.
Seokjin... Kim Seokjin! His brother... does this mean his brother was the one that wanted him gone?
I was pulled out of my thought when i heard someone running in our direction. The voice was originated from the Park. Taehyung and I got up pacing near the park when a man in black hood came running and bumped into Taehyung.
He was carrying a 4-5 year old boy with his face covered with a mask. The little boy was crying.
The man stumbled back and lost his grip on the little boy.
We heard more voice coming from where this man came running after kidnapping the little kid.
The culprit instantly ran away. Leaving the little kid with us.
Taehyung and I bent down to the boy's knee level as his father, i suppose, approached us.
"You! How dare you kidnap my son! Give him back to me", The man accused Taehyung. As we stood back up
My eyes furrowed, i turned back to look at Taehyung making me realised that Taehyung had worn the black hood and was carrying the boy in his arms.
"A-ahjussi... it's not how you think it is- ," that man cut me off.
"Oh come on! Don't stick your leg in when you don't know what happened", He spoke as he pushed my shoulder on purpose with his finger.
My expression hardened at his mistreatment. But i kept my cool.
"Look... ," he cut me of yet again.
"go away and give me my son back!", He pushed me with his finger yet again.
He was about to repeat it again when Taehyung grabbed his hand and punched him hard.
I gasped in shock.
"Taehyung-ah!! Hajima!!", I shrieked.
My ears heard a small cry making me turn towards it.
"Appa~", I saw the little boy cry while watching the two fight.
I grabbed the little boys shoulder and bent down.
"Don't look here and take a deep breath, arachi?!", I told him. He gave me a small nod and obliged to my command.
I tried grabbing Taehyung's hand and pull him away.
"Yahh gumanhae!! You're frightening the little boy!! Stop it!", I yelled at him making him jerk towards me as he let go of that man.
"So what?!! WHY SHOULD I GIVE A DAMN!! NO ONE GAVE A FUCK WHEN I WITNESSED ALL THOSE! I WAS A LITTLE BOY TOO! NO ONE STOOD UP FOR ME. WHY SHOULD I CARE?! WHEN THERE'S NO ONE TO CARE FOR ME?!", He yelled back at me. I flinched at his sudden outburst.
This wasn't my Taehyung that stood in front of me. It was a new Taehyung whose expressions and behaviour seemed similar to that of a beast.
His chest heaved up and down. His eyes darkening. His jaw clenched. Ready to kill someone.
I'd be lying if i said I didn't fear him right now.
"Of course there are people who care for you!! I care for you!", I retorted.
"Do you think i'm in the position to believe that?!! I don't even know who to trust!!", he growled, looking dead in my eyes.
"Y-you don't trust me?", I stuttered feeling hurt by his words.
"Molla... if Seokjin hyung was one behind that then it might be possible that you guys came there because you knew what was going to happen beforehand!", he barked at me.
His words hit right in my chest. Tears begging to leak at such harsh words but i refused to ket them out.
"How could you say that?!! Is it so easy for you to say this?!! Didn't you feel something with me all this time?!! Do you think I wasn't real all this time?!", I scoffed at him.
He keep starting at my eyes with clenched jaw but didn't say anything.
I gulped and nodded at him, "fine! I got my answer. I'll take my leave now"
I said and ran away from him, letting my tears out.
I ran back home with the blurry vision.
"Hey! Did you-," I heard Anna as i entered the house and ran into my room, locking the door in process.
I slide down the door, grabbing my chest while sobbing hard.

Anna's POV

"I wonder what happened", I spoke to Jungkook while glancing the way Minna just ran to.
"Shouldn't you check on her? She was crying", Jungkook suggested making me turn my head towards him.
"Ani... if i go then she wouldn't let it out the way she actually wants to. Let her cry for 5-10 minutes. I'll approach her after that. That's how both of us clear out frustration", I explained while looking at him in the eyes with a sad smile.

All we could hear were her sobs, that made my heart ache.
