They walked to the barn and saw a bicycle leaning against the wall.

"I can ride us there," Taehyung said.

"Don't bother. Let's walk. We can ride the bicycle when we get tired"

Taehyung smiled smugly. "Do you like my company that much?"

Jimin couldn't help smiling as he rolled his eyes.

"Shut it and let's go," He said.

Taehyung took a hold of the bicycle and they started to walk together. They followed Sana's instructions and started to walk straight ahead. They stopped for a while when they saw Chanyeol and Baekhyun a few miles away walking in their direction. Their arms were linked and they seemed to be engaged in a conversation. Baekhyun laughed loudly and hit Chanyeol's arm playfully while the latter just gazed lovingly at him.

They both looked up and saw them. A huge smile lit up Baekhyun's face as he hurried toward them.

"Hey guys," He said loudly. Chanyeol slowly reached them and bowed his head with a smile.

"Hey," Jimin said and noticed the eye exchanges between Baekhyun and Taehyung. Jimin couldn't help but roll his eyes. What the hell was going on between these two?

"So how are you enjoying your stay?" Baekhyun said.

"It's been great actually. Your village is nice" Jimin answered then narrowed his eyes.

"By the way, where were you guys coming from?"

They both smiled. "We went for a cake tasting. It's the only place in our village that makes wedding cakes so we have to book on time before others "

They nodded. Chanyeol looked at the bicycle and the phone in Jimin's hand. He suddenly had a disproving look on his face.

"Are you both going to the tower?" he whispered.

Taehyung and Jimin looked at each other. They nodded.

"Yes," they chorused.

Baekhyun shook his head looking worried thereby gaining both their curiosity. He sighed. "It's dangerous there," He said in a shrill voice.

Chanyeol frowned "There are a lot of crazy bad hoodlums around there waiting for innocent prey. A lot of us stay away from there"

Jimin felt scared. "Why didn't Sana tell us?"

Baekhyun eyed his fiance. "Well that's because they don't exist"

The couple suddenly broke into laughter while Taehyung and Jimin glared at them angrily. Chanyeol stopped first seeing their irritated looks. He nudged Baekhyun who stopped as soon as he saw their displeased faces. He stood upright and cleared his throat, his eyes still shining with laughter.

"That wasn't funny" Jimin groaned.

"Sorry, we were just pulling your legs," Baekhyun said.

Chanyeol smiled. "Don't worry, the tower is perfectly safe" he said.

Baekhyun suddenly grabbed Taehyung's hand and pulled him away from them. Jimin scoffed while Chanyeol looked offended watching the two whisper secretly

"What do you think they are talking about so seriously?" Jimin said, his face scrunched up.

Chanyeol folded his arms "I have no idea"

He turned to Jimin "Hey, do you like him?" he suddenly said. Jimin instantly blushed unprepared for that attack.

"Taehyung?" He shook his head rapidly and Chanyeol nodded. Jimin laughed anxiously "No not at all, he isn't even my friend. Nothing is going on between us"

"Mmh" Chanyeol whispered. "You know, we humans are always good at lying to ourselves. We feel safer that way"

He suddenly moved closer to Jimin. "Let me tell you a secret that I've never told anyone not even Baekhyun"

Jimin was now so curious about his secret. "I had always been in love with Baekhyun even when we were kids"

Jimin looked at him in surprise. Chanyeol nodded his head. "There were times when I would look at him and I would think that he's the most beautiful human being in the entire world"

At that exact moment, Jimin looked at Taehyung, and Chanyeol's words resonated in his ears. Taehyung's boxy smile as he spoke with Baekhyun was so captivating. His long dark hair, his velvety skin...he was studying every inch of his beautiful face. Jimin's heart began to beat so fast that he tore his gaze away from him to focus on Chanyeol.

"Back then, I used to admire his laugh, his smile, everything about him. I didn't know it was love until that day"

He put a hand on Jimin's shoulder. "What am I saying Jimin? What I mean is that you should forget everything that you feel Is trying to keep you apart and just love"

Jimin stared at him, his words making a great impact on him.

"Don't restrict yourself from him and just allow yourself to love before it's too late"

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Baekhyun interrupted. Chanyeol stepped away from Jimin as Taehyung returned to his side looking closely at Jimin.

"We should be asking you guys the same question," Chanyeol said with a smirk.

Baekhyun winked at Taehyung. "It's only between us"

Taehyung smiled while Jimin stared at his face as if he was seeing it for the first time.

"Come on, let's go, Baek," Chanyeol said grabbing his fiance's hand.

"Remember what I said Taehyung" Baekhyun yelled out as Chanyeol dragged him away smiling at Jimin.

"Bye!" Jimin whispered waving at them until they were gone.

"Come, let's go," Taehyung said. Jimin nodded and they resumed their walk. Jimin couldn't stop thinking about what Chanyeol told him but the man didn't understand how complicated it is to allow himself to love Taehyung. It was dangerous and he was the one who would suffer in the end but still, with Taehyung beside him, it was getting harder and harder to deny his feelings.

"Jiminah..." His voice resounded in his ears.

He looked at him. Worry was etched in those brown eyes of his.

"Are you tired?"

"mmh, I guess so"

Taehyung immediately climbed on the bike.

"Get on" He simply said. Jimin did as he said and sat behind him.

"Hold on to me," He said, his voice as cool as the breeze blowing around them. Jimin hesitated a bit before he wound his arms around his stomach letting his head rest on his back.

That moment right there felt magical. The wind swept past them as Taehyung rode the bike. The trees sweeping past them looked so tranquil and Jimin felt something he had not felt in forever. Happiness.

"Are you comfortable Jiminah!" Taehyung shouted over the roaring winds.

"Yes!" Jimin shouted back. He wanted to say he enjoyed it but he bit back his tongue and stayed quiet.

"I can see the tower" Taehyung yelled. Jimin looked and saw it. It was on a hill. Tall and high.

They finally reached the tower and parked the bicycle under it before getting down. Jimin took out the phone and thankfully there was a connection. He began to dial his parent's number. Nothing. There was no answer. He tried again and again. Nothing

Taehyung took the phone from him and called his father. There was no reply. Same as Jimin. He was beginning to wonder if there was something wrong.

"Why aren't they picking up our calls?" Taehyung whispered.

"I have a bad feeling about this" Jimin said.

"Let's go. We can try again tomorrow" Taehyung said

Jimin felt so disappointed but he knew there was no need to stay there.

They were about to enter the bicycle when three men appeared from nowhere. They all looked rough. One of them was short and bald, another was tall and extremely thin as if he hardly ate anything other than taking drugs. The last one looked more normal but every inch of his body was decorated with tattoos.

"Hey, what have we here?" The bald one said with a disgusting smile on his face.

"It's been so long since we've seen anyone come up here. Who the hell are you?" The tattoo one barked

The tall one examined them. "They look like city folks"

The short bald one-eyed them slowly. "Do you have anything for us?"

His eyes flashed as soon as he looked at Jimin. "Who's this fine thing? I've never seen a boy as pretty as this one?"

The man grabbed Jimin's face and peered deeper into his eyes then pressed his lips on his chin inhaling his scent.

Jimin felt so disgusted by the action. His breath was so smelly. He was about to push him away when he heard a light growl beside him.

"Get your dirty stinky hands away from him"

Everyone turned to look at Taehyung who suddenly had a dark aura about him as he glared murderously at the man.

The man smiled cockily and wrapped his arms around Jimin's neck looking at Taehyung daringly.

"And what the hell are you going to do?" He mocked.

The other men moved closer to Taehyung trying to intimidate him but Taehyung's full attention was on the man's hand wrapped around Jimin's neck.

"I'm telling you for the last time, get your damn hands away from him," He said, eyes darkening. Jimin couldn't understand why Taehyung was behaving this way. He was making things difficult for both of them.

The man looked angry now. "you're starting to piss me off. I think you need to be dealt with so you know how to behave"

But before anyone could blink, Taehyung had pulled the man's hand away from Jimin's neck and twisted it in the opposite direction. The man yelled out in pain and Jimin looked on shocked.

"What the hell? Get him!" he shouted and the other two lurched at him but Jimin was left speechless as Taehyung dived into the air and kicked the both of them in the face as though it was nothing.

The short bald man joined to attack Taehyung holding onto his dislocated hand but they were all beaten to a pulp without even laying a single finger on Taehyung. Jimin couldn't believe how good Taehyung was at fighting.

"Are you alright?" Taehyung said in a sexy deep voice. Jimin looked from the bleeding men on the ground to Taehyung looking like a badass and a strong urge to wrap his legs around Taehyung's body and kiss him was overpowering but that feeling immediately disappeared when he heard the shot.

Taehyung looked at him with wide eyes before collapsing on the floor, blood gushing from his back and mixing with the earth

"You shot him?" The bald one shouted at the tattooed one holding the gun that had shot Taehyung.

"He was pissing me off!" The latter shouted back, a terrified look in his eyes.

"Let's get out of here!" The tall one whispered in a shaky voice and they ran away stumbling blindly.

"Come back! Come back!" Jimin shouted in a loud voice but they were long gone.

His cheeks were wet with tears as he knelt and gathered Taehyung's head in his arms crying profusely.

"Stay with me, please Taehyung. Don't leave me. You can't leave me" he whispered pressing his mouth on his cheeks.

Taehyung opened his eyes and gazed at Jimin with a smile on his dying lips.

"You are so beautiful" He whispered and his eyes closed. His breathing seized, his hands fell and Jimin's world stopped.
