Angel

7.

Not all intentions are pure.

Taehyung made his way across Jjong Square and was now halfway to his dorm.

The moon shined brightly against the dark sky. The pretty boy paid no mind to his surroundings and just walked on forward.

Left right left right left right...

A slight breeze blew past and ruffled his hair in the wind.

My hair's getting long, I should give it a trim soon.

Everything was quiet, only the sound of crickets and the leaves could be heard.

All of a sudden, he got a weird chill. Taehyung's stomach coiled when he heard the snap of a branch and...

Were those footsteps?

His footsteps lagged for a second before he snapped out of it.

Okay okay stay calm Taehyung, don't worry.

He gnawed on his bottom lip, he wondered for a second if he was imagining things, but now he could definitely hear footsteps behind him.

He gripped the strap of his satchel tighter and slightly quickened his pace.

What do I do what do I do what do I do-

For some reason Jungkook's name flashed in his mind and he hesitantly unwound one hand that had been gripping the strap.

Okay relax Tae, you're a boy there's no reason for you to act like a damsel in distress.

The footsteps picked up everytime he sped up, but he didn't dare turn around. Taehyung quickly looked up at the name pole that had the square name on it.

Big Bang Square

At the same time he slipped one hand into his satchel and retrieved his cell phone.

Tears prickled at the backs of his eyes, but he knew he had to stay strong.

What the heck??!

His phone wasn't turning on, everytime he clicked the home screen it stayed black.

NO PLEASE

He could hear his heartbeat in his ears and his stomach was coiled up tightly. Sweat was collecting at the base of his neck and Taehyung wished nothing more than to be at home watching movies with Gguk.

Taehyung quickened his steps as he tried to turn on his phone. He listened as the person behind him sped up too, and he knew he had to make a split second desicion.

I'm more than halfway home, can I do it...?

He made a mad dash for it. Just then his phone screen glowed white, finally turned on.

Gguk ☺

Taehyung finally dared to look back and saw a dark figure running behind him. It was the shape of a man who was bigger, taller, and presumably stronger, running after him.

A scream ripped it's way out of Taehyung's throat as he pushed his legs to move faster. His heart felt like it was going to beat out of his chest as he tried to run and dial the other boy's number.

The scream must have provoked the assailant, because he suddenly picked up momentum in trying to catch the pretty boy.

Taehyung turned around and ran for his life, if he just ran a bit more he could make it to his dorm building. Tears streaked down his cheeks and his breathing became labored.
