A tired look was visible on Taehyung's face as he slowly walked up the stairs of his apartment complex. It was pretty late in the afternoon and since Jungkook and him had taken their time with practicing for the live shows they had forgotten a bit about the time.

A smile made it's way onto Taehyung's face as he thought back on the words that had left Jungkook's mouth during their practice session. If the brunette's predictions would be right then Taehyung would make it to the semi finals without any problem.

The fact that it was Jungkook who had said those exact words to Taehyung made the grey haired boy even more proud. Jungkook knew what he was talking about and he was an amazing artist himself. Having him say such compliments truly meant the world to the older boy.

As Taehyung finally walked up the last set of stairs he suddenly saw his own front door open. Baekhyun, their next door neighbor walked out of it with a small smile on his face and a deep red blush covering his cheeks.

A small smile began to form onto Taehyung's face as well as he saw the look on his neighbors face and he quickly fastened the pace in which he was walking up the stairs before greeting the older boy. "Hey Baekhyun."

Immediately the older boy looked up at Taehyung with a shocked look on his face which in turn made the younger laugh softly. He hadn't even tried to scare Baekhyun and yet the boy looked at him as if he was some kind of ghost or something.

"Did you and Bogum have fun hanging out?" Taehyung asked his neighbor while a friendly tone was lacing his voice. Of course the grey haired boy knew damn well that Baekhyun and Bogum were pretty good friends and the fact that they had spend some time together made the student feel even beter. At least his boyfriend hadn't been alone when he had been practicing together with his coach.

"Uhh...yeah." The older boy answered while he quickly cast his gaze down to avoid Taehyung's eyes. "Look I don't want to be rude but I think I left something in the oven..." The older boy then confessed before he quickly walked over towards his own apartment and dissapeared behind the front door.

A confused look began to cross the grey haired boy's features and he looked at his neighbor's retreathing back as if he had grown two heads suddenly. The boy was acting quite strange according to the younger.

However quickly a small smile began to form onto Taehyung's face again and he softly shook his head before he walked towards his own apartment. Maybe Baekhyun wasn't feeling well.

Slowly the student began to fish the keys out of his pocket before he stuck his key into the keyhole and twisted it. A sigh left the grey haired boy's mouth as the black door finally opened itself and he quickly walked inside before taking his coat off and proceeding to walk further into his and Bogum's shared apartment.

Immediately the younger boy's features lit up as soon as he saw his boyfriend sitting on their couch. The boy was sitting with his back towards Taehyung and quickly the grey haired boy walked around the piece of furniture before sitting down next to his boyfriend and giving his a thight hug. After all Taehyung had done a lot today and all he longed for now was a hug from the one he loved the most.

However as soon as Taehyung looked up to his boyfriend the small smile on his face fell immediately while it made place for a scared look. Bogum was looking at the younger boy with a piercing look in his eyes and an annoyed one of his face.

Taehyung swallowed thickly before he backed up a bit. However before he fully had the chance to do so Bogum harshly grabbed him by his upper arm and immediately a shot of pain shot through the smaller boy's body while the look of fear became even more visible on his face. What the hell had Taehyung done wrong?

"Why the fuck were you gone for so long. You cannot possibly tell me that all you did was rehearsing the stupid songs you will sing next Taehyung." Bogum spoke in a very angry tone while lowering his face and stopping right in front of the smaller boy's. Taehyung looked at his boyfriend with fear practically written all over his face. The smell of alcohol coming from the raven haired boy's mouth was overwhelming and the grey haired boy knew damn well that his boyfriend had difficulty controlling himself whenever he had drank.

"Jungkook and me talked through the strategy he came up with for the liveshows. After that we rehearsed for a bit." Taehyung tried to explain as calm as possible. However the fearfull tone that was lacing his voice was easily noticable by Bogum and the raven haired boy began to look even more angry.

"STOP LYING YOU SLUT!" Bogum angrily screamed at Taehyung while rage was clearly visible on his face. The older boy harsly grabbed his boyfriend's collar before he pulled him closer. Immediately Taehyung's eyes grew wide and he desperately began to grab his boyfriend's hands while trying to pry his fingers off of his colar. Bogum however was way stronger than Taehyung and thus the useless actions of Taehyung didn't help the grey haired boy one bit.

With a look of rage in the raven haired boy's eyes Bogum slowly began to lower his face towards Taehyung's before a disgusted look began to form onto his face. "Just tell me you took that stupid cheatlist too far and cheated on me." The raven haired boy whispered in a dangerously low tone.

Taehyung visibly gulped before he violently began to shake his head while tears started to pool up in his eyes. "I swear I didn't." The boy sobbed while a few tears escaped his eyes and rolled down over his cheeks. The grey haired boy didn't like it at all when his boyfriend acted like this. Whenever Bogum had drank alcohol he became a completely different person. One his boyfriend didn't like at all.

"Filthy liar." Bogum spoke before he harsly pushed Taehyung away from him and turned around. The older boy briefly lost his balance due to the alcohol in his system but he quickly regained it and walked towards the front door. As he neared the exit of his and his boyfriend's shared apartment Bogum turned around one last time while a mixture of anger and disgust was visible on his face.

"You can sleep on the couch tonight. I don't want you anywhere near me when I get home." The raven haired boy spoke before he turned around and opened the front door before harsly slamming it closed after he stepped outside.

As soon as Bogum had left their apartment Taehyung sank to his knees while tears began to leak from his eyes. Once again Bogum had managed to turn a day full of fun and exciting things into the worst day the grey haired boy could imagine. Sure Taehyung knew that deep down Bogum was just scared to loose Taehyung and maybe the younger should have called his boyfriend to tell him that he would be home a little later. However Bogum's reaction wasn't something Taehyung had liked one bit and he just wished that his boyfriend would consider his feelings too.

Soon tears leaked out of Taehyung's eyes non stop while he raised his hands before placing them in front of his eyes. The boy's shoulders shook violently while loud sobs left his mouth. Why hadn't he just called Bogum? Then he could have prevented this all.
