WOO JINYOUNG P O V.
I was in the middle of training with my group mates when I got a call. For a second I wished it was Naeun calling me.
"Hello?" I asked.
"This is from the hospital, your friend is injured and you're the only guardian she has." Someone said.
"Naeun??" I asked.
"Yes." He said. "We'd like you to come."
"I'm coming!!" I said quickly, hanging up the phone. I grabbed my stuff and bolted out of the practice room without another word.
My heart pounded because I assumed that it was her leg. She told me that she wasn't training as much, but how much is as much?? I prayed that she wasn't hurting a lot right now. I should've stopped her from training.
When I arrived at the hospital, the doctors let me in and I saw Naeun soundlessly sleeping on the hospital bed.
"She overworked herself. I will talk about it more when she's awake, but almost her entire right leg is broken." The doctors said.
My jaw dropped. "Her...her entire leg?!"
He nodded. "I will leave you now."
He left me alone and my eyes widened when I saw how her right leg was bandaged and wrapped 50 inches thick.
I sat down next to her. "Why didn't you tell me that it hurt??!" I asked to the sleeping Naeun figure.
I frowned and sighed. "Why did you push yourself so hard..."
She was sleeping so peacefully, like a cute little angel. I lightly grabbed her hand, running my thumb over her knuckles.
I wonder how much it hurt. I hope not a lot.
"Did you cry?" I asked, because I have never seen her cry.
There was no reply of course.
My mouth twitched when my eyes landed on her lips. Would she kill me if I did that....
I hope not.

JUNG NAEUN P O V.
I slowly woke up, and it took one look for me to know I was in a hospital room. I put together the pieces easily.
My leg didn't hurt as much, but I saw that it was fully wrapped. I was too tired to deal with any of this, so I closed my eyes with the intention of going back to sleep.
I heard the door open and two voices--one unfamiliar and one familiar.
It was Jinyoung.
Why did they call him??
"She overworked herself. I will talk about it more when she's awake, but almost her entire right leg is broken." I heard the doctor say.
No way. My entire leg?? How could that happen?
But the thought that I was most afraid of was,
will it be injured forever?
I heard the doctor leave the room, and Jinyoung's foot steps getting closer to me.
"Why didn't you tell me that it hurt??!" He muttered, even though he probably knew I was asleep. "Why did you push yourself that hard..."
I (amazingly) didn't even move when Jinyoung's hand carefully grabbed mine. I suppose playing dead is a great skill.
"Did you cry?"
I held back a smile at how he was talking to me, even if I was 'asleep'. I was curious of what he would do next.
There was a long silence, and I didn't have to open my eyes to know that he was staring at me.
"Sorry..." I heard Jinyoung whisper, but it was close--LIKE, right up in my face close. My heart starting running a marathon.
Is he trying to kiss me?
But I didn't want him to kiss me, thinking I was asleep. If he was going to do it, I wanted him to do when I was awake.
So I opened my eyes, and my predictions were correct, his face was merely centimeters away from mine.
"AH!" I pretended to be surprised. "You scared me!!"
Jinyoung pulled back immediately and chuckled. "Good morning Naeunieee."
I yawned. "Hello."
His face turned serious. "I'm mad at you."
"What? Why?" I internally laughed at how he acted like he wasn't about to kiss me 5 seconds ago.
"Because you didn't tell me your leg was getting worse!! We're supposed to tell each other everything~~" He whined.
I aegyo(ed) him back. "I didn't want to worry you~~"
"But now your leg is really messed up." Jinyoung sighed and pressed my cheeks together. "What am I going to do with you??"
I smiled. "I'm fine. It hurt but I'm fineee."
"Tsk. You little liar." Jinyoung said.
"I'm not!" I said.
The doctor stepped in soon after. He sat down and my expression turned serious.
"So, what happened?" I asked.
"You're ankle is broken, you have a pulled hamstring, and your kneecap is on the verge of fracturing." The doctor said bluntly.
My eyes bulged out of my head. "That...MANY?? How? Why??"
"First of all, you overworked your muscles too much and did activities that exceeded your physical abilities, then you didn't let it heal, making it get even worse."
I dropped my head back. "It's not like I had a choice..."
"Did your company not let you take a break?"
I shook my head. "Not really..."
"Then that's the reason, I say that your company is to blame." The Doctor said.
"Why didn't you tell me they were making you practice??" Jinyoung scolded next to me.
"I don't know..." I muttered. "How can it heal?"
"I prescribed you medicine that you must take, and as for your company--if they continue to make you practice you should leave it, because your leg could be permanently injured."
"I have a two year contract..." I said.
"Then sue them."
My jaw dropped. "Is that even possible?!"
"It is, Tao from EXO attempted that."
I sighed heavily. "And he lost it. I don't want to go that far."
"Whether you lose it or not, they will let you go, because they have no choice." The Doctor said. "Don't worry about it, just make sure you don't use your leg at all."
I nodded. "Thanks."
With that, he left the room and I slumped down. "Are you serious..."
Jinyoung frowned. "I think you should try to leave..."
"But I want to debut..."
"You can debut anywhere." Jinyoung said. "But you can't debut when your right leg is demolished."
I sighed again. "Why did this happen..."
"Because fate wants you to come and join HappyFace." Jinyoung grinned.
I stuck out my bottom lip. "I don't want to."
"Just a thoughttttt."
"A thought can only be a thought."
