The silence deafened the room, Yoongi left them speechless from his own words. Now that he mentioned it, they do have some suspicions about that kid.

Jin shook his head. He's still a sweet and lovely guy. He won't do anything against them. Would he?

Namjoon let his disbelief show, he hadn't thought about it as that kid always distract them from the matter in hand. He does get suspicious especially when he lied to his mother. Why didn't he tell the truth to be able to escape and not risk his life? Could it be that he is planning something that involves being inside-

A knock resounded on the door making Namjoon abandon his thought. One of the guards opened the door with panic and worry creased over his features.

"Sir, the guy you have kept tried to escape. We dragged him into the cell and locked him up." Shock coursed through all of them. Taehyung tried to escape? But why?

"Got it. We'll go there." Yoongi was the one who spoke out. The guard left leaving all of them in silence and questions running around their mind.

"Well? Aren't you gonna ask him?" Yoongi stood up from his seat.

"Did you plan this?" Jimin blurted out. He looked up to Yoongi who has an unreadable expression.

"I'm also shocked. Don't go blaming me when it comes to that kid." He left the room. Namjoon trailed afterwards letting the members follow him quietly down to the basement where they have a cell.

"Sir." A guard bowed down when they entered the cell. "The guy is kept on the third cell." The guard stepped out of the way as the members slowly gathered in front of the cell where Taehyung sat on the bed with a tear stained face.

"Hyung..." He tried to reach out towards Jin who only looked away from Taehyung. "Kookie..." His hand was slapped away when it neared towards Jungkook.

"Why would you do it? Are you fucking against us?" Namjoon pulled Taehyung towards him with the bars still between them. Taehyung cried silently as he let himself get hurt without letting any reaction slip from him.

"You tried to escape." Jimin said with a trace of hurt and pain in his voice.

"Well I can't always stay here! You have no idea how it felt lying to eomma!" Taehyung pushed Namjoon's hands off of his shirt and angrily looked at them. "I protected you because you- you became something... in my life..." Taehyung looked away from them and walked to the the corner of the cell.

"That doesn't exp-"

"I just want to say I'm sorry to eomma! Even if she doesn't understand! I want to see that she's sleeping at the moment even if it meant for me getting punished! You have no idea how much she gone through! You have no idea how much I want to protect her." He fell down on his knees as he sobbed loudly and shook his head.

"I didn't... I made sure that I don't get enemies... That's why I tried to be nice to everyone even if it means using me..." Jin rushed inside the cell to hug the boy but Taehyung harshly pulled away from him. Everyone was stunned, even if they had know this boy for hours. They can tell that he always craves for affection.

"Just please... Leave me..." Taehyung curled into a ball in the corner of the room.

"You could sleep-" Jin tried to suggest something when suddenly Taehyung cuts him off.

"I know you don't trust me. You can leave me here for the sake of sleeping without worry of anyone escaping at the middle of the night. Besides I don't want to give anymore trouble. It's already really late and I have kept all of you guys awake." Taehyung looked up to the boys standing outside of the cell and towards Jin who still stood slightly near him. He managed a small smile before turning away from them with his back fscing them.

Namjoom had no choice, the kid can be kinda stubborn but he is right. They all need some sleep. It's already past 3 in the morning and they have yet to sleep.
