"Save it. I don't wanna hear anything related to him." She growled silently, standing up from the couch.
"Why are you like this?" I snapped, pushing her down again. "You won't even hear us out?"
She sighed loudly and turned her head to look at me straight in the eyes. "I am like this because he made me like this. You wouldn't know how it feels to be heart broken since your relationship is so perfect. Making out everywhere at any time, forgetting Chanyeol's warnings." She huffed, shaking her head.
"Because Chanyeol's warnings are bullshit and so is the Camarilla Order." Taehyung snapped. "Listen here, missy, I've known you for 5 years and I've always been there for you. You owe me this." He glared at her.
"Fine. Talk." She deadpanned.
"Jimin didn't cheat on you. He was drugged by that bartender. She is gone now, so stop bitching about it and make up with him, would you? He's been miserable ever since you left. " Taehyung said with disgust clear in his voice.
"I don't believe you. Channy wouldn't lie to me about this." She denied.
"Channy? I'm sure he wouldn't try to break you two up just to have you all for himself." He said sarcastically as she glared at him.
"He wouldn't do that. He knows how much Jimin means... meant to me." She laughed nervously.
"But that's just it. He's obsessed with you. And not in a good way. Why would I be lying to you?!" Taehyung tried to reason with her only to be shut down again.
"Because you don't want Channy wandering around us to see you two fucking around all the time, perhaps." She smirked.
"That's it. You know what? Do whatever the hell you want. I tried to help, it didn't work. I'm out of here." I snapped, getting up with Taehyung following behind.
"What did he do to you?" Taehyung muttered, shaking his head at her before he followed me.
Just as I was about to open the door, a knock made me freeze, looking back at Aotaki who was just smirking. I hesitantly turned the knob and the door was swung open by the only person I didn't want to be there. I looked at Taehyung who froze in his place at the sight.
"Welcome home, Channy." Aotaki cheered, running to hug him.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't the two people I didn't want together." Chanyeol whistled as he eyed us from head to toe.
"You said he wouldn't be here." I glared at her.
"I said he wouldn't be here when you'll come home. I didn't say anything about later." She said amused as her new boyfriend kissed her cheek.
"Thanks for texting me, babe." Chanyeol leaned down to kiss her, making me gag as I turned around to face Taehyung.
"You told him?! What the hell, Aotaki?" The redhead shouted, interrupting their kiss. She moved Chanyeol to her side so she could glare at Taehyung before she approached him slowly.
"You gave me no choice. I couldn't stand seeing you so happy together when I couldn't even get out of bed." Her eyes were glistening as tears were starting to form.
"So you sold us out because the rest of us were happy?" Taehyung asked with disgust in his voice. "I thought we were friends." He took my hand, shaking his head as we headed towards the door.
"I'm coming for you!" Chanyeol threatened. "You broke the rules and now you have to pay for your stubbornness." He continued but we were already out of the door when he shouted the last sentence.
The ride to Taehyung's house was silent as we were both lost for words. How could she sell us out just like that? It wasn't our fault that she believed what she saw. And how are we re we going to tell Jimin that she left him for Chanyeol, his Sire. Everything was such a mess.
We were almost at the front door of Taehyung's mansion when my phone vibrated and I took it out to check the notification. It was a text message from Baekhyun.
From Baekhyun:
Watch yourselves tonight. Chanyeol has gathered a team and he's coming for you.
As soon as I saw the text I showed it to my boyfriend who shook his head in disbelief and fisted his hand out of anger. At least Baekhyun was kind enough to give us a heads up before everything went down.
As soon as we entered the house I made sure to call Jungkook to come home while Taehyung called his hyungs, asking them to come back and deal with Chanyeol's gang, EXO, once and for all.
From within the kitchen, I heard some shuffling on the stairs and my breath got cut in my throat as I waited for the unknown source of noise to show itself.
Taehyung took my hand and pulled me behind him just in case it might be one of them but all worries flew by as Jimin came around the corner, looking slightly better since last time we saw him.
"TaeTae, Rei. Why are you here? I thought you were spending the night at her place." He sounded confused, looking at Taehyung with a raised brow as I smiled sadly.
"Yeah, about that. Change of plans. Chanyeol found us." He said.
"What? How?" Jimin's voice was filled with worry.
"I'm sorry I have to be the one to tell you this but Aotaki has been seeing him for quite a while now." I said in a low voice, lowering my head.
"What? Him?" The older sounded so heartbroken that I couldn't help the sting in my eyes.
"I'm sorry, Chim." Taehyung took the older in his arms and rubbed his back soothingly as I followed, hugging them both.
Jimin was sobbing quietly into Taehyung's shirt. He looked so powerless and broken and the anger I felt toward Aotaki was inexplicable for making such a precious boy suffer because of her stubbornness.
The front door clicked open and I motioned to Taehyung that I was going to check it as he nodded shortly, holding the broken boy.
Just as I reached the hallway, I hid behind the corner to sneak a peak at the front door and relief took over me as I saw Kookie, taking off his shoes and unplugging his earphones.
"Thank God, you got home safe." I sighed as I went up to hug him, taking him by surprise.
"What? What happened?" He questioned, frowning.
"Come." I took his hand and guided him to the kitchen.
Jimin had calmed down but he still clung onto Taehyung as Jungkook sat down next to the redhead, looking confused at the situation and waiting for someone to explain it.
"So are you gonna fill me in or are we having a moment of silence?" He spoke up once he noticed nobody was talking.
"Alright. I'll talk." I said, looking at him. "Taehyung was supposed to spend the night at my place but after we got there, Chanyeol showed up at my door because Aotaki texted him we were coming and now he knows about me and Tae." I explained.
"Wait. Why was he there?" Jungkook scrunched his face in confusion.
"They are a thing now." I spoke carefully, glancing at Jimin who just lowered his eyes to stare at the floor.
"No way." The maknae said in disbelief.
"Yes way. At first, I thought she was just fucking around, literally. Now I don't know what to think. She sold us out because we were happy without her." I shook my head as I spoke with bitterness in my voice.
"Wow. I never expected her to betray us like this. I guess, I underestimated her." Jungkook's voice was low.
"I talked to the hyungs and they are coming home tomorrow to plan our defense in case they decide to attack." Taehyung informed, sitting up from his spot. "You should get some sleep before the others come."
"Hyung, be careful. They might come tonight." Jungkook stood up beside him.
"Thanks, Kookie." He leaned in to kiss his forehead before he whispered into his ear, loud enough for me to hear, as well. "Take care of Jimin for me, please." Jungkook nodded before he hugged Taehyung tightly, earning a chuckle from the older, "Yah, I'm not dying.",making the younger grin in return.
"I know but still... Be careful, I don't want to lose my favorite hyung." He spoke softly, not wanting Jimin to hear him as Taehyung slapped his chest playfully. "Sleep tight, Hyung."
~
When you are nervous or scared or anything that gets your heart beat run, one thing is for sure: you can't sleep. So, there I was, thrashing around in bed and trying to get into a comfortable position, waiting for sleep to come over me. But it never did.
I extended my hand towards the nightstand to grab my phone and check the time. 2:30am. Great. I sighed loudly and turned to Taehyung's side to see him, sleeping like a newborn.
I wiggled my way into his arms and rested half my body onto his. My head was comfortably placed into the crook of his neck as my left leg was straddling his waist along with my left arm. He didn't even stir. Yah! Take a hint and wake up. I need you! I scoffed in my mind.
He tilted his head to the right, exposing his neck and giving me an idea at the same time.
I leaned in and pecked his neck a couple of times, earning some grunts from him but he still stood still.
"Tae." I whispered, nuzzling into his neck. Nothing. "Babe, wake up." I whined softly, not to startle him. Fine. You want it the hard way. I'll give you the hard way. I huffed.
I started kissing up his neck and reached his earlobe, nibbling on it, making him grunt and stir a little. "No, don't..." He mumbled in his sleep. I continued my kisses on his face, starting with his cheek and reaching his lips.
Unconsciously, he returned my soft kisses and opened up when I bit his lower lip and taking me by surprise when he turned me over, hovering over me and making me yelp.
He deepened the kiss, slipping his tongue into my mouth as he held my left thigh around his waist, rubbing his crotch onto my right one.
I whined into his mouth and he pulled away only to smirk at me. "You better have a reason for waking me up like this and it better be what I'm thinking about right now." He leaned in to trail his kisses down my neck, biting softly into the skin.
"Wait, that's not it." I patted his arms to motion him to stop his actions.
"Too bad. You feel that?" He said as he rubbed his crotch onto my thigh again, making me feel his hardening member. "That's not easy to get rid off without your help." He pouted.
"How can you think of sex when we could die at any second?" I scolded.
"I wasn't thinking of it until you started turning me on. I was sleeping peacefully actually." He teased, rolling his hips to create the friction. "You have 2 options: either suck me off or let me fuck you." He winked, smirking down at me.
"Tae!" I slapped his arm as I looked away from him in embarrassment.
"Aw, you're so cute when you get shy." He cooed, kissing my cheek. "Fine, I'll stop." He climbed off my body, pouting.
"I'm sorry, baby, but I can't do it right now." I cupped his cheek and leaned in to peck his lips as an apology before I leaned back on his shoulder. "I'm scared, Tae." I mumbled into his shirt.
"It's gonna be alright. You'll see." He threw his arm over my waist, bringing me closer to his body as he kissed the crown of my head, rubbing my back to help me fall asleep in his arms.
Tomorrow is gonna be a long day. I told myself before sleep finally took over me.
