Taehyung entered his house and saw Hoseok preparing an early supper.

"Hey Tae Tae. I'm pleased that your home. I need help with cooking supper."

Taehyung walked over to the kitchen and froze.

"Hoseok, if I found an abused puppy, would you let me keep him?"
"A puppy? Where on earth would you find-"

Hoseok shifted his body to look at Taehyung and saw a little face that belonged to a dog.

Before Hoseok could discipline Taehyung, he spoke. "Please Hyung! Let me keep him! The kids nearly killed him and he's only so little! He'll die on his own!"

Hoseok sighed and shook his head while shrugging his shoulders "I'm only saying yes because you've always wanted a puppy and you have been in tough times... But he's your responsibility! And go clean up! Your a mess!"

Taehyung squealed as he ran upstairs into the bathroom with the puppy. He filled the bathtub and washed the puppy first before getting his own clean up.

After they both were successfully clean, Taehyung cleaned Yeontan's wounds.

Yeontan whined but Taehyung talked to him the whole time.

Once that was completed, Taehyung went downstairs and was followed by little Yeontan.

Taehyung was helping Hoseok in the kitchen and couldn't help but glance at the puppy who was playfully rolling on his back. It was no doubt that he was a human-lover and someone who wanted attention. Taehyung found it sweet.

After supper was finished, they all ate deliciously. Even the puppy ate as Taehyung had ran out to get some puppy food earlier on.

Now everybody was sitting down in the living room with the puppy on Taehyung's lap.

"Hyung.... I'm thinking of staying home tomorrow.."
"Staying home? Tae, your going out with Jeongkook. Remember?"
"That's the thing... I don't think he wants to go."

Hoseok sighed.

"Tae Tae, it's because of what happened to Yoongi. Did he actually say that he didn't want to go?"
"No... But I still-"
"Enough! Go and text him, see if he still wants to go."

Taehyung grumbled and laid Yeontan on Hoseok's lap before running upstairs to his bedroom.

He picked up his phone with a slight pout pinned onto his face.

He laid down his phone and let his body rest in bed.

Taehyung's eyes began to shut as fast as they opened.

Yoongi.

Taehyung leaped out of bed and ran through the front door only to leave Hoseok in shock.

"I'm going to go see Yoongi!"

Taehyung bolted to the hospital, it wasn't far from home.

When he reached the entrance, he closed his eyes to take a breath. He had to see how Jimin and Yoongi were doing.

He walked up to the front desk, "May I see Min Yoongi please?" "Room 302."
"Thanks."

Taehyung searched for room 302 and knocked on the door.

Jimin opened the door and smiled when he saw me.

"Hey Jimin Hyung...."

Jimin let me inside the warm, small, room and I kneeled down next to Yoongi who was very much awake.

"Hey Yoongi."

Yoongi Ruffled Taehyung's hair and he giggled "Hey Tae."

Taehyung sat on the floor, in between Yoongi and Jimin.

"Jimin, Have you done any exercises with Yoon?"
"Yeah.. Some flash cards and such. I only want him to get better soon..."
"I know what you mean.."
"Speaking of getting better, what's all those cuts on you?"
"It's nothing. Just an accident."

Jimin raised an eyebrow, causing Taehyung to explain the full story.

"Taehyung, I-"

Right at that moment, someone barged open the door.

It was JiHyun.

Everybody looked up to see JiHyun enter the room and closing the door behind him.

"I'm sorry about what happened..."

Jimin stood up and faced his brother.

"Your not welcome here. Get out."
"Jimin Listen to me... Mom and dad are worried about you since you've never came home yet."
"I don't care about them."
"Let me finish." JiHyun took a deep breath.

"I'm here to apologize... That day when I took you from the restaurant... I lashed out on Yoongi which was wrong. That same night Taehyung texted me... He said how protective and caring Yoongi is towards you.... But I never believed it.. But I do now. Yoongi.... Jimin....." JiHyun had a single tear trail down his cheek.

"I'm Sorry..."

The night had passed and Jimin finally made up with his family.

His brother respected Yoongi, and his parents did as well.

As for Taehyung, he was in his soft, cozy pjs. He was in bed cuddling with Yeontan.

All he could think about was Jeongkook and their date tomorrow night.

Taehyung was indeed stressing out. His heart raced every time he saw him, his handsome figure made him drool, and the way he cares about his friends makes Taehyung feel happy.

Taehyung had no clue what to think. He was in the middle of confusion.

Taehyung closed his eyes and tried to have good thoughts, sadly, he ended up having a Nightmare.

He always felt as if his past would come back to haunt him, and it finally did.

-Nightmare, The Past-

"Is mommy gonna be alright?"

Little Taehyung and Hoseok hovered over their sick mother, who was resting in a hospital bed.

Her skin was pale, her face was dull, and her brain was becoming a blank space.

Their father, who had his arms behind his back coughed.

"Boys, I'm sure your mother will be just fine. Let's go home."

They left their mother, the wife, laying in bed. Only to receive news the next day that she had passed on.

The funeral was a sad day for the boys, loosing your mother at such a young age was no easy task, and nobody said that things would get better either.

It was now a year and a bit after their mother's death, and the two young boys sat in the room playing video games.

Their father opened the door with a beer bottle in his hands. He looked at the two youngsters.

"BOYS! I told you to do the chores!!!!"

Hoseok and Taehyung stood up rapidly.

"But father-" Hoseok went on. "We already finished the chores that you assigned us to do."

The father was half drunk, and the boys knew it.

"Well then, do more chores! I should get rid of that damn electronic! You need to learn to be modern boys, not some useless junk!"

Taehyung bit his lip, in which he was starting to let tears flow out of his watery eyes.

"Kim Taehyung! We do not shed tears in this household! Wipe your eyes!"

Taehyung obeyed and hung onto Hoseok.

"There was also a boy by the name Jimin looking for you today. I saw him at the cafe before I came back home. Do you know this kid?"

Taehyung cleared his throat.

"Yes father... He's my friend... We play games and we get along well."

Their father snarled, "I hope you never date any boys Taehyung. It's wrong. You can't have kids, you can't even live a normal life. Everybody would be staring and calling you a 'Gay Slut'"

Hoseok scrunched his face and peeked over at Taehyung. Hoseok Hated it when his father talked like that. Taehyung wasn't a teenager yet but he knew that he was Bi.

Taehyung took one step closer to his father "There's nothing wrong with liking the same gender as yourself father. Love is love."

Their father lifted his hand and hit Taehyung right across the face, making the younger one collapse on the ground.

"Shut your fucking mouth Taehyung. You do not know anything. Not really surprised though, I doubt that your grades are actually precise."

Hoseok's anger was getting worse and worse. He exploded like a balloon.

"Taehyung is the smartest kid at school! Your the one that's brainless father!"

"Hoseok! I did not expect this from you."

Hoseok crossed his arms.

"Son.... You will raise your brother on your own."

Hoseok nearly flipped out "WHAT?!"

"I SAID THAT YOU WILL RAISE HIM ALONE!"

Their father smashed the bottle, causing sharp splinters of glass to fly everywhere.

"Pack your bags. You leave tomorrow."

Their father had left through the front door.

Hoseok helped Taehyung up and held him close. Taehyung bawled Out loud.

"It's okay Tae Tae... He won't hurt us anymore...."

-Flashback End, Back to reality-

"HOSEOK!!!!"

Taehyung sat up, sweat and tears rolling down his cheeks.

Filled with fear, filled with darkness, filled with pain.

Hoseok slammed open Taehyung's door and went over to him.

"Taehyung, what's the matter?"
"Dad... Mom... Nightmare..."

Hoseok sat on Taehyung's bed and held him close for the rest of the night.

"He can't hurt us anymore Tae Tae."

Those words echoed at the back of Taehyung's mind.

"Everything would be fine.."

Or would it be?
