(Flashback)Jungkook loved Taehyung. That was the biggest secret he was ashamed of. Taehyung was one of the only members who did not do anything to him. In a way, that was good and bad. Good because he gets a break when Taehyung is the only one in the house. That guy just floats around like a ghost, not bothered by anything. That was probably the bad part because if he was even a little bit human, he would've helped Jungkook, or at least given him some food. Instead, he just watched when Jungkook is being tortured. One time, they made eye contact when Namjoon decided to beat him up, and Taehyung just had this smirk and superior look. As if Jungkook was nothing but an ant. That was when Jungkook realised he had made a mistake and liked the wrong man.
But it was too late. Jungkook's feelings for Taehyung was like a stain on his cloth that he couldn't remove. All his life, he had craved for nothing but some warmth and love, and one of Jungkook's first impression of Taehyung was the elder male giving an ice cream when he had scraped his knee on the pavement while playing with the family dog. It was his first week at the house and the parents were still there while his parents had recently left this world for another. A simple act of kindness had swayed him so bad that he fell in love. But people change and so did Taehyung. A guy who used to be vegetarian because he was scared to hurt animals became a guy who enjoyed torture.
That was his sad love story.

Hoseok eventually had gotten bored and left Jungkook on the ground. He just stayed there for a while. Lying on the ground and thinking absolutely nothing. His wounds were healing at a weirdly rapid pace as they had already closed up and stopped bleeding. Even the deep cut on his leg had stopped paining and it seemed that he didn't need the crutches anymore. It was weird but he wasn't going to question it especially since it was working in his favor. Jungkook gripped the rod that was nearby for support to get up.
"What the fuck," he exclaimed as the iron rod groaned and snapped in his hand. Since when was iron this weak?
He tiptoed to his bedroom and threw a few clothes in a sack. Sneaking into the kitchen was a lot harder because Yoongi was sulking about something and kicking the wall in frustration. Once he wasn't looking away, Jungkook quickly dashed into the kitchen and threw in whatever food he could get his hands on. There was a box of snacks that he had been eyeing so he also threw that in the bag as well.
His neck almost cracked trying to look back as the front door opened and slammed. Must be Namjoon coming back from wherever. Jungkook dived behind a nearby sofa, biting his lip as his body slammed on the ground. He slowly crawled, keeping his head low. His valuables were still in his room but he had no time to get it. If he had to leave, it had to be now. Jungkook didn't want anyone to know that he had left. Hoseok was wrong about one thing. The people here would care that Jungkook left, and they would haunt him. Jungkook was walking evidence of how evil the people here could be. And if he walks away, there could be no telling of who Jungkook would tell and this would tarnish their reputation.
Jungkook looked ahead and saw that the front door was so close to him. He crawled a little bit more, looking behind to make sure Namjoon doesn't see him. As he was checking behind, he bumped into something hard. And it was none other than Taehyung.
"Where do you think you are going?" Taehyung said with a little smile that seemed so evil. Jungkook's heart stopped for a second, paralyzed by fear. He didn't think but something took over him, like an alter ego. Unconsciously, Jungkook punched the wall with all his strength, and it gave away, leaving a pile of rubble. With a quick motion, he took the biggest piece and hit Taehyung on the head with it. The elder man didn't even get a chance to fight back and he fell to the ground.
Jungkook cursed and fled from the house, never looking back.
