Taehyung was a quiescent child but he was too young. only 7 years old when he was forced to grow up too quickly, saw things nobody should ever see, his viridity came to an abrupt stop, forced to become independent too early. The sparkle in his eyes dulled, his smile became bigger but untrue. His face became pale and sunken, and solitude became his close friend.
As he grew, his frail body, that endured so much became his sanctuary, learned to call it his home, and that nobody will ever invade his home again without his permission. He thanked it for whats it's done for him, he's hurt it, damaged it, yet it remained beautiful for what was now 15 years. He was pure, yet he wasn't, his cold exterior only protected his warm soul.
If you looked into those beautiful brown eyes, you'd see the tears, the torment, the suffering, the demons wishing to be let out, you'd see it all. Would that intimidate you? Would it scare you? Would you still look at him the same?
It didn't intimidate him. It didn't scare him. He looked at him like he was his universe.

Jeongguk was always alone, since the age of 5. The scars and empty bottles were there to prove it. The intoxicated body in the living room, the new people coming in and out of the front door every night.
He was alone to deal with his thoughts, to suffer his physical and mental pain alone. Left to cry alone, eat alone, walk alone, grow alone, live alone. He too often longed for a place to call home. Still, he thanked whatever god or gods blessed him with the shelter he has now, even if he couldn't call it home. With the strength and courage to walk alone.
Now, he was a handsome young man of 18 years, who had successfully reached college, and finally gained the real freedom he always longed for. He was eyed by many, who wouldn't lay eyes on him? He had the body and face of the ideal man, but of course, that was what they saw.
Nobody saw the real him, the intoxicated soul that shouted to the stars at night and cried to the moon, the young man that fell to his knees and demanded the universe to end his pain and loneliness. Nobody saw the selfish boy that wanted what he never had, love, he wanted it all to himself, he wanted someone to want him and to need him and only him. He was oblivious to the attention, even the attention he craved, because in his mind,
Who could ever love such a disaster like him? Who could look at him like he was the only thing in their lives? Who would need him?
He would. He did.
