“Tae?” Jeongguk calls, knocking on the door softly and taehyung abruptly stands up from his seat.
His heart has been beating so fast, so worried because of jeongguk’s text that sounds so depressing even if they are far away. He’s jeongguk’s best friend anyway,

His heart has been beating so fast, so worried because of jeongguk’s text that sounds so depressing even if they are far away. He’s jeongguk’s best friend anyway,
he can know everything about him and can comprehend the situation with just a mere observation.
He gives way for jeongguk to step inside his apartment, the nervousness taehyung has been going through is now increasing when he sees jeongguk’s current state.

His aura screams ordeal, shoulder not in poise as his eyes glistened an enormous amount of sadness hence, the smile he provides for taehyung to see is still as sweet as before, but taehyung knows better.
He knows something just happened that made his tough best friend become like this.
“Are you,” he pauses, stepping forward to close his and jeongguk margin, a hand flies on the vampire’s hair to brush it gently, emitting comfort on jeongguk’s system.

“Are you hungry?” Taehyung asked softly.
Being a human, that question is honestly surprising to even ask, so impossible to interrogate by a normal person, right in front of their predator.

But taehyung never saw jeongguk as his predator, the thought of him helping the most important person in his life collides such happiness inside his heart and mind, the pride that blares on his chest whenever jeongguk drinks at him like a famished vampire is enough for him.
Enough for him to offer even more just /for his best friend/
“No, i’m not hungry,” jeongguk answers, voice cracked that cascade agony, ensuing the frown on taehyung’s lips.
“Oh?”
“No, i’m not hungry,” jeongguk answers, voice cracked that cascade agony, ensuing the frown on taehyung’s lips.
“Oh?”
“But i need hugs, a lot actually,” he continues, smiling before pulling taehyung on his arms, grasp so tight but the human doesn’t mind.
Jeongguk buries his face on taehyung’s neck, inhaling the scent of his vanilla lace perfume that lingers on his skin,
Jeongguk buries his face on taehyung’s neck, inhaling the scent of his vanilla lace perfume that lingers on his skin,
the calmness that it gives jeongguk is what he lives for—he’s sane because of taehyung’s warmth.
But he knows this won’t last long.

“Tae,” he starts, holding him even more tight, “I have to tell you something.”
“Y-yeah,” taehyung stutters, breathe can’t accumulate because of the unyielding hug thus he never voices out any complaints.

“I— i found my mate.”
And that’s when taehyung feels his world crumbling so fast, painful as it seems.

“Oh really? Congratulations then!” Taehyung swallows, the lump that’s forming on his throat isn’t vanishing.
His voice cracks a little, but still lively as ever, showing how happy he is that finally, jeongguk found his mate after waiting for hundreds of years.

“Gukkie? Why are you sad then? You found your mate already, aren’t you so excited about it? You always mention that to me every second, literally,” he chuckles, trying to ease jeongguk who’s grasp is still the same—not showing any sign of letting him go.
“You’re okay with it?” Jeongguk whispers, breathes fanning on taehyung’s skin which makes him shiver.
“Duh? Of course i am, idiot! Why would I not?”
/he’s not/.
“Duh? Of course i am, idiot! Why would I not?”
/he’s not/.
“A mate is what vampires have been seeking for, so i am more than happy that you finally found your other half, and also gukkie please let go i can’t breathe!”
Jeongguk rapidly commands his wish, “taehyung i found my mate,” he reiterates,

hoping for viewing a contrasting reaction from taehyung.
And Taehyung doesn’t know if he’s doing this in purpose because for fuck’s sake he’s already getting stab a million times.
“You don’t have to repeat it. I have ears,” the glares and his raging words are what
And Taehyung doesn’t know if he’s doing this in purpose because for fuck’s sake he’s already getting stab a million times.
“You don’t have to repeat it. I have ears,” the glares and his raging words are what
he really wants to deliver, finally not concealing anything since the painful confession rolls from jeongguk’s tongue.
“Okay…”
“Smile! Why aren’t you happy about it? She’s your other half gukkie, You should be preparing a feast right now!”
Jeongguk forced a smile,
“Okay…”
“Smile! Why aren’t you happy about it? She’s your other half gukkie, You should be preparing a feast right now!”
Jeongguk forced a smile,
“yeah, a feast.”
A feast of finally letting go of taehyung? Probably /not/

“Tae tae, how long will you frown like that?” Jimin whines on his side.
He's been trying to make taehyung’s smile, but all of his attempts were futile, the downward slope of taehyung’s lips just can’t fade away even
if he tells him the new open arcade not far from the university with too much enthusiasm.
And it is already getting jimin to the edge, this isn’t the taehyung he used to see and will never be like this—
And it is already getting jimin to the edge, this isn’t the taehyung he used to see and will never be like this—
the boxy smile that radiates sunshine and happiness should exude from him, not such deep agony that can also be pervasive in the most negative way.
Jimin’s footstep became faster as he stopped in front of taehyung, making the other do the same thing,
Jimin’s footstep became faster as he stopped in front of taehyung, making the other do the same thing,
head looking up to meet jimin’s eyes with a questioning look.
“What?” He asked, but jimin only pinch his left and right cheeks, forcefully sloping his lips to smile.
“What?” He asked, but jimin only pinch his left and right cheeks, forcefully sloping his lips to smile.
“Come on, don’t suffer like this, i know it hurts taehyung but, we can’t do anything about it, smile baby. Didn’t jeongguk say you’re more beautiful when you smile?” Jimin states softly, evacuating the warmth of his words onto taehyung.
He brushes jimin’s hands off from his cheeks, it’s currently red because of the hard pinching but even if he feels the ting on his flesh, he still does what his soulmate has been asking.
He smiles, trying to gain positivity in his own heart—
He smiles, trying to gain positivity in his own heart—
being depressed like this won’t help anyone even himself, he must show support to jeongguk as much as possible.
“See! You’re so cute tae tae!” Jimin was about to fly his hands again to taehyung, thus he stopped him eventually.
“See! You’re so cute tae tae!” Jimin was about to fly his hands again to taehyung, thus he stopped him eventually.
“Hep! Stop right there minnie it already hurts like hell!” He shouts, a hand flaunting on jimin’s view to remain on his feet.
“I’m sorry, can’t help it,” he apologizes sheepishly and taehyung rolls his eyes,
“I’m sorry, can’t help it,” he apologizes sheepishly and taehyung rolls his eyes,
wrapping his fingers around jimin’s wrist to haul him onto the university gate.
Maybe just a little distraction will lessen the pain even for a bit.

Maybe just a little distraction will lessen the pain even for a bit.
“Let’s go! I’m gonna eat many food—“
Both of his words and movements got halted, eyes completely darted at the
familiar figure who’s standing on the right side of the university exit.
Taehyung will never guess wrong on familiarizing who the person is, he knows him, can even recognize him clearly from afar.
“Jeongguk?” Jimin finally voiced out Taehyung's thoughts, as always.

“Jeongguk?” Jimin finally voiced out Taehyung's thoughts, as always.
“Do you both have a scheduled /best friend/ date today? There’s no way i’m giving you to him!”
Taehyung raises his brow, “No, he never texted me since morning.”
He will never forget any appointment with jeongguk, even how far the day is.
Taehyung raises his brow, “No, he never texted me since morning.”
He will never forget any appointment with jeongguk, even how far the day is.
The vampire does surprise him sometimes but taehyung can still conclude if he’ll pick him up or not, especially the way Jeongguk kept on flooding him messages every damn second.
But today, it seems like he's waiting for someone else
And guess, taehyung’s gut will never fail him
But today, it seems like he's waiting for someone else
And guess, taehyung’s gut will never fail him
Because a girl that looks like his age runs towards jeongguk’s direction, smiling so wide as he stops in front of the vampire—looking so excited and bubbly,
and a conclusion on who the girl is, already intensifies on taehyung’s mind resulting in his heart to squeeze inside his ribcage.
“Jiminie let’s go—“ a pull with so much force made his lips get zip,
“Jiminie let’s go—“ a pull with so much force made his lips get zip,
feet unintentionally moving forward as jimin inaudibly tugged him towards the gate.
He wants to protest, but the rage that jimin cascades even if he won’t say any word ceases taehyung from voicing out anything.
He wants to protest, but the rage that jimin cascades even if he won’t say any word ceases taehyung from voicing out anything.
He just let jimin drag him, the sight that’s already awfully painful is getting clearer and clearer on his vision, getting more closer that even if he’ll show hostilities from it, he can’t, because this is jeongguk’s fate—cannot be encase with anything even if he wants to.
“Yow jeongguk!” Jimin calls out and he ducks his head low, trying his best to avert his attention on the floors instead of the person jimin just called.
“Tae,” his voice sounds so longing, so deceiving which makes taehyung finally hauls his chin up,
“Tae,” his voice sounds so longing, so deceiving which makes taehyung finally hauls his chin up,
bravery that he demands to have is now forcefully accumulating on his mind and heart.
“Hi.” He replies in a low voice, a smile that didn’t even reach his ears formed by his last energy for today.
This is tiring. He wants to get out of here quickly.
“Guk who’s she?”
“Hi.” He replies in a low voice, a smile that didn’t even reach his ears formed by his last energy for today.
This is tiring. He wants to get out of here quickly.
“Guk who’s she?”
Taehyung can’t already count how many times he curses jimin on his head because of his mouth that can’t be tamed by anyone. He honestly wants him to shut up for real.
“This is Han Sora, my mate,” jeongguk’s eyes never left taehyung’s as he speaks out his name,
“This is Han Sora, my mate,” jeongguk’s eyes never left taehyung’s as he speaks out his name,
he’s evidently staring and he’s not even concealing it.
Does Jeongguk want to rub more salt on taehyung’s wound?
Taehyung knows he’s not aware about the feelings he has for him, but the way jeongguk gazes at him while
Does Jeongguk want to rub more salt on taehyung’s wound?
Taehyung knows he’s not aware about the feelings he has for him, but the way jeongguk gazes at him while
he rolls her name and her status in his life on his tongue is hurting taehyung even more.
Enough is enough.
He’s about to announce their retreatment, but jimin abruptly stands in front of him, claiming his hand as he squeezes it tight,

He’s about to announce their retreatment, but jimin abruptly stands in front of him, claiming his hand as he squeezes it tight,
“Oh? Really?! Omg finally jeongguk! You found your other half but i’m sorry, me and taehyung need to go somewhere as fast as possible,” he grins on them, irises looking back and forth to the girl named sora and onto jeongguk,
“we really just stop to say hi so bye! We gotta go now!”
After saying his last statement, jimin dragged taehyung away from their spot, not letting jeongguk to voice out his reply.
“Jimin—“

“Jimin—“
“You’re much better than the girl what the fuck? Poor jeongguk,” jimin shouts in low voice, footstep not calming down and probably, also his fury.
Taehyung chuckles at that, smiling at the /not so/ comforting words of his best friend.

He wants to ask if it’s the truth, but still if he’s really better than the girl then what for? Lure jeongguk to become his?
Absolutely not.
Absolutely not.
