You all returned from the beach, tired but content. Yoora suggested watching a movie, and so you found yourselves cozied up in the living room. Jimin took charge and picked a horror movie, much to Taehyung's delight.

As the movie played softly in the background, the cozy living room was filled with the sound of Jimin occasionally munching on popcorn. You sat in the middle, flanked by Yoora and Taehyung.

Jungkook kicked off the conversation, "I can't believe Jimin picked a horror movie again, every time!"

Jimin flashed a sly smile, "Get ready to be scared!"

Taehyung scoffed, "I bet it won't be that scary. You always pick the lamest movies."

Yoora playfully nudged Taehyung, "Oh, come on, Tae. Don't be like this. It'll be fun!"

"Shh, the movie's starting," Yoora hushed everyone, her eyes glued to the screen.

Initially, everything seemed normal. You were engrossed in the movie, trying your best to ignore the playful banter between Taehyung and Jungkook. But then, you felt a light touch on your hand. At first, you dismissed it as accidental, but soon you realized that Taehyung was tracing delicate patterns on your palm.

You tensed slightly, not wanting to give him the satisfaction of knowing that he was affecting you. However, Taehyung was persistent. Slowly, he intertwined his fingers with yours, sending a jolt of surprise through you. You held your breath, trying to steady your racing heart as he flashed a smirk in your direction.

Yoora and Jimin were engrossed in a heated debate about the plot twist of the movie, completely unaware of the silent battle taking place beside them. 

Jimin couldn't help but comment on every scene. "Oh, I hate jump scares!" he exclaimed, as Yoora laughed beside him.

Jungkook, usually the quiet one, suddenly pointed at the screen, saying, "I bet the killer is the guy from the beginning!"

Jimin's laughter filled the room as he made a witty comment, causing Yoora to playfully shove him. Meanwhile, Taehyung's touch on your hand sent a flurry of emotions swirling within you.

Finally, unable to contain yourself any longer, you turned to Taehyung, a mixture of confusion and frustration etched on your face. "What are you doing?" you whispered, hoping that the others wouldn't hear.

Taehyung's eyes sparkled with amusement as he leaned in closer, his voice barely above a whisper. "Just enjoying the movie with you, why? Does it bother you?" he teased, his tone laced with mischief.

You tried to discreetly free your hand, but Taehyung held on firmly. "Relax," he whispered, his voice sending shivers down your spine.

"Let go," you whispered back, trying to keep your cool.

"Why? I'm just enjoying the movie, aren't you?" Taehyung taunted, his grip tightening.

Feeling trapped, you glanced at Yoora for help, but she was engrossed in the movie. You knew you had to handle Taehyung yourself. With a deep breath, you mustered up the courage to confront him.

"Taehyung, let go of my hand," you said firmly, trying to hide your trembling voice.

But Taehyung wasn't finished yet. He leaned closer to you, his voice dropping to a whisper. "You can't resist me, can you? Admit it."

You turned to glare at him, your eyes flashing in the dim light. "I can resist just fine, thank you very much."

Taehyung chuckled, his breath tickling your ear. "We'll see about that."

As the movie progressed, the events on the screen becoming more intense, you found yourself growing tired. The weight of the day's activities finally caught up to you, and your eyelids grew heavy. Before you knew it, sleep overtook you, your hand still in Taehyung's grasp.

In the quiet of the room, Taehyung observed you sleeping, a small, rare smile gracing his lips. There was a hint of warmth in his eyes. Your head had gently found its way to Yoora's shoulder. Moments later, he carefully untangled his hand from yours, not wanting to disturb your well-deserved rest.

---------------------------------

Next day,

Jungkook's excitement was contagious as he animatedly suggested, "Hey guys, how about we go for a trekking trip today? It will be so much fun to explore nature together!"

You, Jimin, Yoora, and Taehyung exchanged curious glances, intrigued by the idea.

Jimin raised an eyebrow, a hint of skepticism in his expression. "Trekking? Isn't that too tiring?" he asked, unsure about the idea.

Yoora respond, her voice filled with enthusiasm, "That sounds great! I've never been trekking before, so it'd be a new experience for me."

Taehyung nodded in agreement, "Count me in! 

"I won't be joining guys, you all can go and have fun!" Jimin said and went to his room.

Jungkook's eyes sparkled with excitement, "It's settled then! We'll pack our bags, grab some snacks, and head out early."

-------------------------------

The sun was just beginning to rise over the tall mountains as You, Jungkook, Yoora, and Taehyung gathered their gear for a day trekking through the lush forest.

As they started on their trek, Taehyung sidled up to you, a smirk playing on his lips. "Looks like we're trekking partners today," he said with a challenging tone.

You clenched your jaw, already dreading the day ahead with your bully. "Great," you muttered under your breath, trying to keep your cool.

"Why did you choose me to be your partner, Taehyung?" you asked, slightly wary of his intentions.

Taehyung grinned, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "Because I know you can handle a challenge, and I want to push you to your limits, my friend."

With a shrug, you accepted his explanation and prepared for the trek ahead. 

"So let's see guys who reaches the top first." Taehyung said with a smirk.

"I don't think it's a good idea to split up," you said as Yoora nodded in agreement.

"It'll be fun, don't spoil it Y/n." Taehyung said as you all split up, Jungkook with Yoora, while you were with Taehyung.

As the sun began its slow descent towards the horizon, the dense canopy above blocked out most of the light, casting eerie shadows across the forest floor. You spoke up, voicing your concerns, "Hey, Taehyung, I think we might be going in the wrong direction. It feels like we're getting further away from the path."

Taehyung, with a smirk on his face, turned to You and replied, "Oh, don't worry so much. I know these woods like the back of my hand. We'll find our way back in no time.=

---------------------------------

As Yoora and Jungkook trekked through the dense forest, the rustling of leaves and twigs under their feet the only sound breaking the peaceful silence. As they finally reached the clearing where they had agreed to meet you and Taehyung, their expressions turned from anticipation to confusion, Taehyung and you were nowhere to be seen.

"Where are they?" Jungkook asked, his brow furrowed in concern. Yoora scanned the area, her eyes darting from tree to tree, searching for any sign of movement.

"I don't see them anywhere," she replied, her voice tinged with worry. 

Jungkook's usually cheerful demeanor was replaced by a furrowed brow and a tight line of worry etched on his face.

"Do you think something happened to them?" he asked, his voice laced with concern. Yoora chewed on her lower lip, her mind racing with possibilities.

"Where could they be?" Yoora's voice trembled slightly, breaking the serene silence of the forest.

Jungkook shrugged, his gaze scanning the surrounding trees. "Maybe they got lost," he suggested, though uncertainty laced his words.

Yoora's lips formed a thin line as she mulled over the possibilities. "We should have stayed together. It's not like Taehyung to wander off without letting us know."

"I hope they didn't wander off too far," Jungkook muttered, his voice tense with worry.

The two of them exchanged a nervous glance before deciding to retrace their steps, calling out your and Taehyung's names in hopes of a response. The forest seemed to absorb their words, leaving them with only the sounds of nature as a response.

----------------------------------

As time passed, it became apparent that neither of you had any idea where you were. Panic began to set in as the realization of being lost sank in. Taehyung's confident demeanor faltered, and a flicker of uncertainty flashed across his face.

"I think we should have taken that left turn back there," you suggested tentatively.

Taehyung snapped back, his frustration evident, "Don't blame me! You're the one who wanted to explore this stupid forest."

"We're lost, Taehyung," you muttered, your voice barely above a whisper.

Taehyung's cocky demeanor faltered for a moment before he shook his head. "Nonsense! We just need to find a way out before it gets dark."

But the forest seemed to shift and change around you, the once familiar paths now leading to dead ends. You both trudged on in silence, the tension between you palpable.

"I didn't sign up for this," Taehyung muttered, his usual demeanor replaced by vulnerability.

Exhausted and defeated, you both collapsed near a large tree, the sounds of the forest now amplified in the silence of your predicament. The cool air nipped at your skin, causing you to shiver uncontrollably. Tears welled up in your eyes as you tried to contain your fear.

"Great job getting us lost, Taehyung," you muttered bitterly, feeling a mix of anger and helplessness.

Taehyung sighed, "It's not like I did it on purpose. We just took a wrong turn somewhere."

"Well, what do we do now?" you asked, your voice tinged with desperation.

Taehyung sat beside you and hesitantly draped an arm around your shoulders. "Hey, it's gonna be okay," he muttered, his voice softer than you had ever heard it. You sniffled, unable to contain your fear any longer.

You couldn't help but break down completely in his arms, the weight of the situation and your own fear overwhelming you. Taehyung held you close, his own heart aching at the sight of you so vulnerable and afraid.

"I-I'm scared," You admitted, tears welling up in your eyes.

 With a gentle touch, he lifted your face, wiping away your tears with a tenderness that caught you off guard. His warm embrace and soft words were a stark contrast to the bully you once knew.

"You're not alone, okay? We'll find our way out of here. I promise," Taehyung whispered, his voice filled with sincerity, his voice a soothing balm to your frazzled nerves. His actions spoke louder than any words could as he wiped away your tears with his thumb, his touch imbued with a sense of genuine care.

As you leaned into his embrace, his lips brushed against your forehead in a tender kiss, a silent promise that he would stay by your side through it all. He set out to gather some wood, his movements deliberate yet caring. He soon managed to start a small fire.

In the flickering light of the fire he had skillfully built, Taehyung's features softened, and you saw a side of him you never imagined existed. Without a word, he sat beside you, the crackling flames providing a sense of security in the darkness.

As the night grew deeper and the eerie sounds of the forest intensified, you clutched onto Taehyung's arm, seeking solace in his presence. His steady breathing and unwavering support anchored you in the midst of chaos, and you found yourself resting your head on his shoulder, finding comfort in his warmth.

Exhaustion overtook you both, and you drifted into an uneasy sleep with Taehyung beside you. His stoic facade had melted away, replaced by a protective resolve as he held you close, He, too, seemed to find peace in your closeness, his head coming to rest gently on top of yours as sleep claimed you both.
