Just so you know I'm not too familiar with EXO. I love their music and all but I don't have a thorough idea about the members. So pls bare with me and correct me (nicely pls) if I made a mistake.

Shoutout to ExoSonyeondan019 for giving me a hand! Thank you so much! 💖

Some of the ships are randomly picked with a bit of aid from the internet! :P

"Taehyung?"

The dark haired male is quick to travel from the doorway to the interior of the great mansion, sprinting up the staircase to the direction of their shared bedroom.

The lack of response was terrifying the elder, hallways silent and brooding as if mourning the loss of one it had sheltered for the past few week.

"Angel?!"he calls out once again, breaking out in a full run, dark eyes raking the rooms he passes in hope to spot a tuft of blond and large, caramel eyes, "Baby?!"

He's simply metres away from their bedroom, dark eyes wide and full of arising fear when the door flings open. A head of pink obscures his vision, the elder's words blotchy and unfamiliar as he shoves him to the side, screaming the blond's name as he views the room.

Taehyung is not there.

- Rewind Twenty Minutes Ago -

The one who had been rapping upon the door had not been a murder on seek for the blond beauty, knife held high and cruel smirk on his lips but none other than their own gang member.

The boy stands there, fists raised in mid air to tap impatiently once again, ceased from the calculating expression of the pink haired male.

The younger of the two is caught off by momentary surprise, a sheepish smile curling at his lips as he catches the other's line of vision. Dropping the gun to his side, he grins joyfully at the younger male.

"What are you doing here, hyung?"Jin questions, smile still present as he leans against the doorframe, "I thought you were with back up ammo?"

Regardless of the fact that he was cooped up in his leader's bedroom, the pink haired male was still rather included and knowledgeable of what was occurring outside of the walls of the mansion.

The male smiles, faint and weak as he runs a hand through his hair, "My ankles been playing with me, head thought it was better if I let it rest before hitting the field."

Jin hums, eyes flickering down to the other's ankle which is wrapped with a tacky roll bandages, "Want me to have a look at it?"

Grinning fondly, the other dismisses the offer with a wake of their hand, "It's fine. I'm sure it'll get better soon."

He nods, before the smile on his lips drops, eyes hardening in worry.

"Anything you need, hyung?"

It's a pity that the younger doesn't notice the flicker of anxiety that flies over the other's eyes, lips quirking into a trembling smile.

"R-Right."he coughs, fingers intertwining with one another into a mess of shaking limbs, "Luhan wants to speak to y-you about the decrease of ammo."

Jin nods, a pleasant smile taking over his gentle features as he throws back his head in a tinkling laugh, "He's been asking me about that all week. Poor lad, I'll be off then."

He tucks the gun securely into his pocket, pink hair strung over his forehead as he turns away, head popping from behind the door to call out to the sheltered blond.

"Tae?"he says, eyes flickering to the underside of the bed.

There's a slight disturbance as the younger untangles himself from the sandwich of blankets he had brought down with him, big, brown eyes looking up at him under a curve of white cotton.

"Yes hyung?"

Jin coos gently at the adorable site, the blankets visibly swallowing the other as he struggles to hold the weight of the cloth on his shoulders.

"I've got to dash down for a second."he explains, smiling reassuringly, "Baekhyun here will look after you while I'm gone, okay?"

His answer is cute nod, cherry lips curling back to reveal his signature box-like smile, "Okay hyung!"

The pink haired male turns, throwing the other a blinding smile, "Sorry Baek, Jeongguk will have my ass if I leave him alone."

Baekhyun smiles, wobbly and strained as he shakes his head, "It's fine."

"Thank you!"he calls over his shoulder as he makes his way down the hallway.

There's silence for a while as they listen on, the elder's steps fading away until it returned the usual dull throb. Baekhyun turns to glance at the blond who's already gazing up at him, lips set in a shy smile.

"Do you want to a movie with me hyung?"he offers pleadingly, caramel eyes smiling up at him as he shuffles back to the bed.

There's something about the utter innocence that smoulders the younger's thin frame, sparkling eyes and gentle smile that lights the flicker of fondness in the elder's core.

"I'm sorry Taehyung..."he murmurs, eyes watery and vision blurred as he advances towards the puzzled blond, "I'm so sorry."

- Back To Present Time -

Jin muffles another sob that threatens to pry through his bitten, raw lips as he hangs his head in dismay, fingers quivering in his lap.

"So you're telling me that you left him in the company of someone that was not you, when I clearly told you to stay with him at all times?"the dark haired male spits through gritted teeth, visibly threatening.

The elder nods, a fresh batch of ugly sobs wracking his frail body as he burrows his face into the crook of his boyfriend's neck.

"I-I'm so s-sorry!"the pink haired male wails, hiccuping ever so often, "I thought he w-would be safe w-with Baekhyun!"

Although he does not see it, the young leader rolls his eyes, fists clenching tightly under the closure of the table.

He respects and loves his hyung very much, the elder a motherly role in his life yet he can't help but harbour rather negative emotions towards the other at the change of events.

Namjoon sends him a pointed glare over the crying male's shoulder, a flash of warning in his eyes as he meets Jeongguk's line of vision. The elder did not appreciate the fact that the other had triggered his boyfriend's endless tears, regardless of his powerful
position.

The leader of them all suddenly slams his fists down on the table, eyes blazing in fury and the veins on his neck prominent, muscles bulging threateningly under his shirt.

"Fucking retard!"he snarls, body even shaking from growing fume, "Thinks he can fucking take what's mine, huh?! Fucking thinks he's good enough for my angel? Think the fuck again!"

Jimin sits close by, his own eyes covered in a sheen of trembling liquid as he blinks rapidly, swallowing hard. He's quivering lightly, visibly frightening at the demeanour of his boss, small body curling backwards until he's safely held behind his partner's shadow.

"Look,"Yoongi suddenly calls out, eyes hard and piercing as he allows his gaze to sweep the room, "arguing and crying isn't going to get us anywhere. I say we map out a plan and show those fuckers who the hell they just dared to mess with. Who's with me?"

There's silence for a while, Namjoon consoling his sniffling boyfriend and Jeongguk breathing heavily to restrain the urge to break everything of the room's contents.

It's Jimin who speaks, voice meek and frail as he hesitantly intertwines fingers with his lover's,"I'm i-in. Anything for TaeTae."

The mint haired male smiles softly, leaning down to press a chaste kiss to the younger's lips, leaving him in a flushed and giggling mess, cheeks painted in a soft crimson hue.

"Alright then."Yoongi declares, frowning grimly as he spectates the other's, "Jeongguk we need a plan."
