Thirty Nine
"Y/N! Watch out!" Eunha shouted out as she saw the figure towering behind you as you both jumped for the ball. The girl shoved you as the ball brushed against your finger tips giving her room to catch it instead.
Your eyes closed tightly as you fell on the court and clutching your ankle. The girl smirked as the coach blew the whistle signalling a pause in the game.
Tears welled up in the corners of your eyes as everyone rushed over to you to see if you were okay.
"Give her some space!" The coach shouted as she signalled for the paramedic to rush over to your side as quickly as possible.
Jungkook watched the whole scene unfold from the comfort of his seat. He had been cheering on of course up until that moment but he hesitated. His fists clenched as he saw you clenching tightly onto your ankle, facial features displaying the pain you felt.
It took a lot out of him to actually get up from the seat and rush over to check if you were okay.
"Y/N..." It came out as only a whisper but you heard it anyways. You opened your eyes allowing the tears you held back to flow down your cheeks. You made eye contact.
"It hurts.." You whimpered softly as Jungkook wiped off your tears with his thumb.
"Everything is going to be okay-you're going to be okay." He assured you as his hand trailed down and took hold of one of your hands interlocking them. He kissed the back of your hand so delicately.
"Jungkook." Taeyong placed his hand on his shoulder. Jungkook turned his head slightly until his gaze met thise of his friend. He motioned his head over to the paramedics who were waiting by the stretcher laid out on the ground.
Jungkook slowly nodded before slipping one of his arms under your legs and the other on your back. He carried you bridal style over to the stretcher before placing you on it.
"Areum, what was that?!" The girl rolled her eyes at her teammate before walking away. Her teammate harshly grabbed her arm before pulling her back.
"Where do you think you're going, huh?! Just answer the damn question!" She folded her arms over her chest waiting for an answer.
"You think we didn't see what you did back there?" Lisa raised her voice as she walked up to the girl who injured you. Eunha ran up behind her to try and stop her if she tried doing something stupid.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't do anything." Areum snarled before rolling her eyes once more.
"Oh you did not just do that-" Lisa said before attempting to pounce on her but thankfully Eunha was there to hold her back.
"Lisa, stop!" Eunha pleaded as Lisa struggled in her grip desperate to get her hands on the girl who purposely injured you.
"Eunha let me go! She needs to pay for what she did to Y/N." Lisa managed to slip out of Eunha's grasp.
Areum screamed as Lisa tackled her on to the floor and grabbing her harshly by her collar. Lisa's eyes turned dark as she locked eyes with the helpless girl underneath her.
Areum chuckled before uttering, "Your little friend deserved it. I just loved the look on her face when she came falling down-" The auditorium gasped as Lisa punched Areum. She would've landed a few more blows but she was pulled off of the girl.
Chenle had managed to save Areum from whatever Lisa had planned for her.
"Let go, Chenle!" She struggled once again but gave up eventually upon realising that she wasn't going to be able to escape.
A couple of Areum's friends helped her up and handed her a tissue to wipe off the blood from her nose, but she shoved it away.
"Pathetic." She wiped off her bloody nose with the back of her hand. She tried to make her way over to Lisa once more but Eunha stood in her way.
"Move." Areum said simply scanning Eunha from head to toe, a look of disgust present in her eyes. Eunha scoffed in response.
"Or what? Huh? You lost already, just accept it and stop trying to pick petty fights." Eunha furrowed her brows as the girl in front of her scoffed in disbelief.
"You're wrong. In fact I believe I already won this fight, I already knocked out one of your players, what's to stop me from taking out another." The venom was laced around her voice as she spoke. Taeyong's jaw clenched as Areum proceeded with slow steps.
Jungkook walked over to the two and harshly grabbed Areum's arm and dragged her behind him. All eyes were on them as they made their way out of the auditorium.
"You're hurting me!" Areum tried to slip out of Jungkook's hold but it only tightened. "Stop-" She groaned as Jungkook roughly slammed her against the wall. Jungkook took a deep breath trying to calm himself down.
"Say what you said in the auditorium one more time?" Areum averted her gaze from the angry guy towering over her. She suddenly felt small now, a huge difference from how she felt just moments ago.
"I-I don't k-know what you're talk-" She stuttered as she spoke but flinched as Jungkook punched the wall beside her head.
"Don't play dumb with me! You were practically shouting in there!" Tears formed in her eyes and they fell one by one down her pink cheeks. She tucked her hair behind her ear now afraid to speak.
"If I ever see try to hurt Y/N again, or try to get close to her, you'll wish Lisa finished you off when she had the chance." Jungkook said in one breath, his piercing gaze drilling holes in her body before walking off to the infirmary.
~~~
Eunha took out an ice pack from the team's first aid bag and headed over to Lisa who sat on the far side of the gym. As soon as Jungkook pulled Areum out the gym he released his hold on her.
"Here-for your hand." Lisa smiled softly as she grabbed the ice pack from her hand. Eunha cleared her throat before planting herself on the seat beside her friend.
"Thank you for the ice." Lisa spoke up as she pressed the bag gently against her knuckles.
"It's no problem." They both fell into an awkward silence, neither of them knew what to say to the other. The coach was prepping the court for the next round of the tournament, of course our team and the team you were going against got disqualified for poor sportsmanship.
"That was really cool what you did out there. Y/N is lucky to have a friend like you." Lisa frowned a bit as she placed the bag down of the bench beside her. She ran her hand through her hair before sighing.
"That doesn't make up for years of being a bad one though. I mean it's the least I could do for her." Eunha pulled her into a hug in order to comfort her. Lisa smiled as she returned the hug. Eunha pulled out of the hug whilst rubbing her palm on Lisa's back.
"Let's go check up on her." Lisa nodded as they headed to the infirmary.
~~~
"Avoid putting too much pressure on your foot and within a few weeks it should heal nicely." The doctor spoke as he looked through the papers in his hand.
You hummed in agreement as he gave you a warm smile before exiting the room. Jungkook approached you as you sat up on the bed, eyes scanning your facial features. You sighed as you inspected the bandage that had been fastened around your ankle.
"Hey.." Jungkook smiled as he spoke softly. He crouched down in front of you before placing his palm on top of your hand.
"Hey.." You replied as you met his gaze, a small smile fixed onto your lips at your boyfriend in front of you.
"How are you feeling right now?" Jungkook asked. You sighed at the question before looking over at your bandaged ankle once again.
"It's just an injury. I'll get better soon enough." There was that hint of sadness in the tone of your voice and Jungkook sensed it. He flattened your hand and immediately interlocked it.
"Y/N-" You interrupted him not wanting to talk about your injury anymore.
"Did our team win out there?" You smiled now. Youngjae had told him of the events that happened when he left the auditorium with Areum. The coach decided against both teams playing on.
"As far as I know both teams were disqualified for poor sportsmanship."
"It's all my fault, isn't it? I'm the reason why we lost in this tournament not even twenty minutes in-" Jungkook placed a soft kiss on your cheek before moving onto to kiss your forehead as well. His kisses, hugs, his everything, you loved them all.
"Please don't blame yourself." You found yourself nodding at that. His voice was really hypnotic and soothing. You pouted a little before letting out a little giggle in the process.
"Sometimes you make it really impossible to be sad." You mumbled quietly as you folded your arms across your chest making Jungkook chuckle. He stood up taking a seat beside you.
His arm snaked around your shoulders pulling you into him. He kissed the crown of your head ever so tenderly. "Good, because you shouldn't be."
The effect he had on you was really strong. You smiled even more as you wrapped your hands around his waist and you both stayed his way for a few minutes.
"Let me take you to your room. You need to rest up." You nodded as you release yourself from his hold. He got up from the bed and crouched down in front of you with his back towards you.
You smiled before fastening yourself onto him, his grip on your legs firm to keep you in place. He got up and left the infirmary.
