Author's POV: 

You flinched in shock and looked up to see Taehyung, sitting on a chair in the shop. You frowned and asked, "How are you-"
"I've realized that hiding stuff from you and being so far away doesn't help. Moreover, I needed to do something, right? You also don't like being confused." He said as you frowned asking, "What are you saying?"

"Well... don't be too surprised. That's what I meant." He said as you frowned saying, "Am I okay..? I think I'm hallucinating."
You looked away saying, "Maybe the dream had a big impact on me. It's okay Y/N..."
The guy sighed and walked toward you making your frown deepen. He was real or-???

He smiled at you and said, "Rosecheeks.."
You looked at him, flustered by the sudden name.
"W-What?!" You asked as he said, "It's okay. It's probably nature trying to remind you. But I understand why you are so slow. But you're still smart."
He patted your head as you backed away saying, "What is all of this..?"
"Do you want to know?" He asked as you nodded, gulping.

---Time skip

"Get out of my shop, please."
"I'm being honest." The guy spoke, clearly down because of the way you just called him a liar and tried to kick him out.
"Maybe you're not really normal but... reborn? How can I believe that.." You mumbled the last line, looking down. He smiled a little, very little again.
"You'll remember it all soon. Don't worry, dear." He said and replied, "Even if you don't believe anything else, you have to believe one thing which is... you're the only woman in my life. The only one who I cherish, love, care for and want to protect... no matter what it takes." 

You gulped and looked down, listening to him. He sounded so sincere. You looked at his eyes. He was speaking the truth, you knew. You knew it all so well but you didn't want to admit it. Gulping, you looked down saying, "If my dream's real... y-you're a..."
"Vampire." He finished the sentence as you said, "It can't be possible. How can someone like you be those ... scary creatures?" 

He knew where you were coming from. Your thoughts didn't change. So what if you didn't remember a thing? You still couldn't see him as a monster, as they said.
"I'm sorry that everything comes to you like that... I know you're really confused, I know, my love." He said as you looked at him for a minute before saying, "Why are you calling me your love?" 
"Because you are my love..." He spoke, in a low voice. His voice was so soothing and calm, warm and soft, welcoming. You loved hearing his deep voice but you didn't want to admit a single thing. Nothing, starting from the fact that his tales were too surreal and ending to the fact that you could relate to him and half of what he said was the truth that you saw.

"I can't trust you." You said, staring at him, more like slightly squinting your eyes at him. He smiled and nodded saying, "Well... you don't have to. Just know that you should be ready. I can't leave you alone anymore, all for your safety." 
"Leave me alone, that sounds the safest." You said and walked up, towards your counter as he sat on the chair, with a soft smile. 
"Well... can't cooperate. But, have a nice day. And, the lilacs look exceptionally good today." He spoke, smiling. You frowned a little at him but as soon as he left, you gulped and looked down, holding your chest. Your heart was beating rapidly while your stomach was doing flip-flops. Your palms were sweating. Shit, he just told you an entire ridiculous story and left?
You knew he wasn't someone you could easily avoid... never. 

You sat down and thought about everything he said again. Except for the vampire thing, everything still somehow made sense. 
"It did mention in the vampire's book... the mark of the Queen. Do I have any mark?" You asked yourself, quickly touching the back of your neck, wondering if you did. But frowned, when you looked at yourself in the mirror, there was nothing. 
"How can I possibly trust him..?" You asked yourself, sighing.

Suddenly, a tall and handsome guy entered the shop saying, "A bouquet of roses, please." 
"Red roses?" You asked as he said, "White." You nodded and started packing according to his instructions.
"$2." You spoke in a low voice as he smiled and paid you, leaving.
"He is good-looking... but not more than-" 

Y/N. No, Y/N. What's wrong with you? What were you about to say?

You quickly shook your head mumbling, "That guy's a nutjob." 

---2 weeks later 

Every single day. Taehyung appears out of nowhere and checks up on you, says some weird stuff and maybe disappears again. But you had a feeling someone was often watching you when he wasn't around. But that stare was quite different from the one of your neighbour's. You weren't sure about a single thing. It all was so confusing and hard for you.

You also realized that he was weird, pretty suspicious. Taehyung, of course. 
He claimed to be a vampire but you weren't going to believe him. Of course, he did show you enough proof. Those red eyes, sudden appearances. How could you not believe him? Yet, you just wanted to frame him as a black magician and just put him in jail for causing some suspense in your heart. But deep down, you also knew that he had knowledge about the things you didn't. 

During these two weeks, no dreams appeared. And it made things worse for you, you didn't know how to actually identify the guy and verify Taehyung's facts. The mark didn't exist on your nape either. There was proof yet no proof that he was being honest. He said time would tell you everything with time but when was time going to arrive?

You looked at the apartment door beside yours and sighed. Entering your home, you turned on the lights just to receive a shock. All the messy clothes in the living room were gone, organized in a corner. You looked at the kitchen counter to see the bowl. Walking towards it, you opened the cover to see hot chicken soup. 
"Huh? Who did this..." You asked yourself and stared at the chicken soup for quite a long time before quickly covering it back, and running out of the house.

Once, twice, thrice- And he opened the door, with a smile.

"Oh..." He said, smiling. You just eyed him, your neighbour. A moment of silence and then you said, "Did you do that?"
"Do what?" He asked as you replied, "Chicken soup. Messy clothes."
"Oh... why?"

You just stared at him blankly for a moment before saying, "How did you get into my house..?" 
"I told you I have superpowers." He seemed casual, way too casual for someone exposing his secrets like that. Was it because you already knew in your past life? No, you didn't actually believe him, Y/N.
"Why are you suddenly being like this?" You asked him, clearly creeped out. He just sighed and said, "Just so you know... you won't remember it soon. So you at least have to know beforehand. The guessing game can't go on for long, your safety is at stake."

"Why is my safety at stake?" You asked as he faked a smile saying, "Do you want to stand outside for that long?" 
"I don't trust you. You don't seem like a human yet you look so normal. In no way does any of your words make sense but I still see those dreams and that night.." You breathed out heavily as he put his hand on your head, shutting you up. 
You stared at him, flustered. He just took his hand back, his face becoming serious yet soft. He took a breath before saying, "Come inside." 
"No..." You said as he spoke, "You came inside before."
"That was different."
"But I'm not different from that time..." 

He was right. It was just you who didn't know that he was someone behind all these things happening in your life. He wasn't different, your knowledge was. 

"If you want to know the truth, you have to trust me. Only me.." He left those words and backed away 2 steps, waiting for you to enter. You stared at him for a while. You had doubts, confusion, irritation, anger and what not? You were suspicious if trusting him was okay. You weren't sure if he, in any way, was truly a vampire. But you knew he wasn't normal either. 
Was it really him, in all your dreams? In all those flashbacks and all those memories, you saw that night, through his eyes?

"I better trust the right one." You whispered under your breath and walked inside his apartment as he smiled.
