Little Peach *Completed*

Chapter 15

Yoongi and Namjoon decide to head back with us, wanting to stop at a book shop that was on the way to the car. We walk making general conversation about books and authors we enjoy, when I see someone out of the corner of my eye that makes my heart stop. I freeze staring at them, Tae being pulled back slightly as he'd continued walking.

"Grace, what is it?" He asks turning back to face me.

I point my finger shakily at the person standing across the road, Tae looking in the direction I'm pointing. I open my mouth but no words come out. I feel myself panicking, chest tightening with anxiety and fear as my eyes focus on the person smirking smugly at me, blowing me a kiss before he turns on his heel walking away.

"Grace...hey...who is it?" Taehyung's face blocking my view as my breathing becomes shallow and erratic.

"Master..." I manage to whisper, tears spilling from my eyes.

Yoongi's POV

I turn to look in the direction of where Grace is pointing, my anger rising quickly. He's so close, I could easily beat the shit out of him...

"Namjoon take Grace back to the car and wait, keep the doors locked." Taehyung instructs firmly, handing the keys to him before turning to me.

Tae looks at me, the same rage I'm feeling mirrored in his own eyes, we simply start sprinting in the direction the asshole walked off in.

Let's get this fucker.

Namjoon's POV

I look at Taehyung and Yoongi sprinting off, Grace huddled in my arms sobbing into my chest.

"Come on, let's get you to the car baby girl." I say softly, trying not to show how angry I currently am.

I keep an arm wrapped tightly round her shoulders as we walk, pulling out my phone to message the others.

Housemates

Namjoon: Big problem. Meet us at Southside car park. Get there fast.

Jimin: Hyung is turning us round now, be there soon.

Read by Jimin, Jungkook, Hobi 2:33pm.

*-*

I let out a sigh of relief as I see the others pulling up beside us, still no sign of Tae and Yoongi though. I look to the back seat, Grace laying down, knees pulled up to her chest as she cries.

"Grace, I'm going to get out and talk to the others ok? I'll lock the doors again." I explain gently.

"No please..." she begs.

"They need to know what's happening, how about I get one of them to come and sit with you?" I suggest.

She nods silently in agreement.

I exit the car, telling Jin to go and sit with Grace, he goes swiftly without hesitation or question, me locking the car once he's in.

"Hyung what's going on? Where's Tae and Yoongi?" Jimin asks slightly panicked.

"We were walking to the book shop when she just froze to the spot, she pointed at a man across the road saying it was him, she completely broke down." I explain lowly.

"Him as in..." Hobi starts.

"Yes the sick fuck who spent 3 years trying to destroy her." I spit, unable to hold back my fury any longer.

"That doesn't explain where Tae and Yoongi is?" Jungkook points out.

"They ran off after him leaving me to look after Grace." I explain.

"Well what are they going to do? Do they even know what he properly looks like? We don't even know his name!" Hobi frets.

"Let's just wait for them to get back." I say firmly. Let's hope they come back in one piece...

Taehyung's POV

We dodge past the people in the way, our legs pushing us as hard as they can, our eyes constantly searching for the scum that's responsible for causing Grace so much trauma.

We only got a brief glimpse of him before he turned and walked briskly away, but I did take note of the long camel coloured coat that he was wearing.

"Ya Tae...we've lost him..." Yoongi pants coming to a stop.

"Fuck!" I growl, pulling at my hair in frustration.

"We should call Namjoon, get him to pick us up." Yoongi says putting his phone to his ear as he catches his breath.

*-*

We didn't have to wait long before Namjoon pulled up, Jin in the back cradling a sleeping Grace.

"Let's get Grace home." Namjoon says, irritation obvious in his voice.

The drive back is tense, a mixture of frustration, annoyance and anger thickening the air.

When we finally pull up in the drive, the others are waiting on the doorstep, rushing down to check on us, worry evident on their faces.

"Namjoon, take Grace in for me please, I would rather not wake her with the lecture I'm about to unleash on Dumb and Dumber." Jin announces.

Once Grace and the others were out of earshot, Jin let's us have it with both barrels.

"What the hell were you thinking?! You left Grace alone with one other person, please explain the logic behind that genius idea?!" He hisses furiously.

"Hyung..." I start.

"Save it! I get it, we all want that psycho to suffer like she did, but you put her in more danger when you ran off like idiots to chase him down!" He continues, his voice harsh and scolding.

"Think with you brain not your fists next time." He adds before turning and heading into the house.

We stand in silence for a few moments before Yoongi shrugs saying "Well that could have been worse."

"He is right though, we shouldn't have left her, what if he'd approached her and Namjoon? We know what he's capable of, and we don't know how far he could go to get her back. They could have gotten seriously hurt because of us." I feel tears filling my eyes as I think about how stupid we were.

"We won't do it again, when we go out with her in the future we agree that there has to be a minimum of two people with her at all times. It'll keep us all safe." Yoongi suggests, giving my shoulder a reassuring squeeze.

"Come on, we need to apologise to Namjoon." I say before heading in with Yoongi behind me.
