Last time we saw Taehyung:

'It wasn't even 10 minutes after Seokjin left that Taehyung opened the door to the dorm and finally arrived home. He had spent the last 6 days with Seventeen and doing vocal practice for their upcoming album. With his voice being so unique, it was often that he got vocal lessons alone. While yes it had been amazing being in the main nest with almost too many arms and legs to count and enough hugs and cuddles going around that everybody was happy, Taehyung had missed his own pack.

The thing was when he got home, it was empty cold and empty. "Hello?" The air in the dorm was mostly stale like there hadn't been enough people to fill it with a new and fresh scent. Seokjin's rose scent was still lingering in the room, but anything else was gone. No Jungkook peppermint, not strong cinnamon from Yoongi, no soft caramel from Jimin to even it all out, it just seemed to abandon.

As he made its way through the dorm, he found that two of the solo rooms seemed to have been slept in one filled with the sweet but strong honey of Hoseok, the other by soft Seokjin roses.

When he got to the nest, it seemed even more abandoned, everything just seemed dead. Even though he had told them he would come home today, his legs gave out from under him as he ended on the ground on his knees. "I missed you... Why didn't you miss me?" And like that all the good work Seventeen had done, become undone.'

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Taehyung wasn't sure how long time he was sitting on the ground, his phone started ringing, knocking him out of the trance he had been in.

He answered the phone without even thinking about checking who it was that called him, all he could do was focus on the emptiness of the dorm, and about how he was alone again, how everybody seemed to have forgotten him.

"Tae baby? You said you would send us a text when you came home safe, we were starting to get worried about you," the voice through the phone was Jihoon.

"Oh yeah... I forgot." his voice was dead, and it was almost ruined from his crying.

Crying? He hadn't even noticed that he had started to cry, but he noticed now how wet his face was, normally Taehyung would care, he would care that he was making the Seventeen pack alpha worried, but at that moment he couldn't get himself to care at the moment.

"Tae? What happened, are you okay?" Jihoon sounded so worried, it was clear that he knew Taehyung well enough to know that there was something wrong with his tone of voice.

"No," Taehyung almost whimpered "they aren't here, nobody is here, they were gone when I came home. Don't they want me? Is it cause I am a failure? Cause I am not an omega?"

That was when Jihoon seemed to understand what was going on, "of course not, I am sure it's just a misunderstanding, come back here, and then we contact the rest of your pack and find out what is going on, are you at the dorm?"

"Yeah," Taehyung felt dead inside, "I am in the dorm... it's so empty." it was impossible to hear the happy beta in his voice from earlier when he had left Seventeen he had been happy, he had believed that he would come home and they would work it out, but now everybody was gone, where was everybody?

A powerful sob wracked his body as he slid the rest of the way down, so he was instead just lying on the ground. Taehyung could kinda hear how Jihoon kept speaking to him on the phone, but he didn't really listen.

He didn't know how long time he was lying on the ground, curled up in a ball on the living room floor, but the stale smell of scents long gone was pushed away from him- Pine, Lotus, and fresh-cut mangos replaced his sense of smell, and as a soft hand was placed on his hand the white noise filling his ears was chased away "Tae?"
