Escape
Jungkook looks into the mirror.
He feels numb as he looks upon the pitiful reflection of himself.
His face is full of cuts and bruises.
His left eye is swollen shut, an ugly shade of purple and yellow.
His lip is busted and swollen.
He wants to cry, but what would be the use?
He's cried all he can cry.
He cried as he begged his fiancé, Yudok, not to do this to him but all it got Jungkook was more brutality.
Crying wouldn't help him escape this nightmare; taking an action would.
Jungkook tiptoes back into the bedroom and gathers together some clothing and all the things that meant a lot to him, things he couldn't bear to part with.
He looks at the form of his fiancé, his terrorizer, in their bed sleeping like a baby, sleeping as if he didn't just beat Jungkook within an inch of his life.
Jungkook could choose to retaliate while he is at his most vulnerable, but he just wants to leave, to be as far away from the man as possible.
Jungkook rifles through Yudok's pants pocket and takes his wallet and car keys.
He then sneaks out the door and makes his way to the bedroom at the end of the hall-- Taehyung's room.
To Jungkook's surprise, the tiger cub hybrid is not asleep despite how late it is.
Jungkook can make out his form sitting on the bed, hugging his knees and shivering.
Taehyung
Jungkookie hyung?
The little tiger hybrid calls out, holding back a cry as Jungkook approaches him.
Jungkook
Yes, baby, it's me.
When Jungkook is close enough, Taehyung puts his arms around him and squeezes tight.
Although it hurts Jungkook, he would never push the hybrid away.
Taehyung
I was so scared, hyung.
Taehyung
I thought you would die.
He whispers while choking on a sob. It breaks Jungkook's heart to see Taehyung so distraught.
He shouldn't have to witness something like that.
Jungkook smooths his hands over the little hybrid's back to calm him.
Jungkook
Everything will be fine.
Jungkook pulls back and wipes the tiny hybrid's tears away.
Jungkook
I have to leave from here, cub.
Jungkook
Do you want to come with me?
Taehyung shakes his head frantically.
Jungkook
You have to pack your things.
Jungkook
Only take what's the most important, things you can't live without.
Taehyung hurries from the bed and packs his things with Jungkook's help.
After they are done, Jungkook takes Taehyung's hand and they leave out the door.
Jungkook gets into the driver seat of Yudok's car, as Taehyung gets into the passenger seat.
Taehyung puts on his seatbelt as Jungkook starts the car.
Then they're backing out of the driveway and heading down the street with the hellhole they called home, as well as Yudok, now behind them.
