     "Jungkook, wake up, the doctor needs to talk to you," Yoongi breathed, shaking the brunet's shoulder. "C'mon, you slouch, it's about Jeongguk, he's out of surgery now." He continued to inform his young friend.

Jungkook blinked rapidly, feeling weight in his arms and on his lap. He looked down, seeing the most adorable look known to earth.

Taehyung's plump lips pushed into a pout, small and soft snores exiting from his throat, his long lashes laid on his soft, rosy red cheeks. He had a slight double chin but the Jeon Twin adored everything, his curly, wavy hair covering his forehead, the peaceful look he held.

Is this a crush?

Jungkook shook his head, blinking again before he looked up at Yoongi. "How do I put him down?" He asked nervously, frowning.

"I don't know, you put him on your lap, you take him off. I'll just tell the doctor to come to you, though, since you can't really get up." Yoongi mumbled, his long hair covering the fact he also had a bruised eye.

The older walked away to retrieve the doctor, leaving Jungkook with Taehyung on his lap. Jungkook looked around, realization didn't hit him too much yet. He was gathering nearby and any type of information around him.

Jimin and Hoseok hyung were talking awhile playing games on their phones, Taehyung was peacefully asleep, Yoongi went to get a doctor, and here he was, holding a precious human being.

"Hey? T-Taehyung? Can you wake up?" Jungkook breathed, gently trying to shake the older awake. He rubbed his hip, debating if that would make him want to sleep more or wake up. "Why does this feel so wrong? I swear I'm not a pervert." He commented, deciding if he really wanted to wake this sleeping beauty.

     Before he took full notice of everything, the doctor was brought in front of him, he knelt down to meet Jungkook's gaze.

"Hello, Mr. Jeon, I'm Dr. Lee. I'm here to inform you of your brother, Jeongguk. Fortunately, the surgery was a success and he should recover in about six to eight weeks. His neck shall be in a cast and he will have supports for his upper spine. He shall have a four night stay in the hospital and I recommend about a week or two off from school. For now, he may have hard problems with hard foods. Serve him some soft food and all should be decently well. As for now, Jeongguk is sleeping in his room. You all can go visit him but he won't be awake for another hour or so." Informed the doctor.

"We ask you be gentle and try to keep Jeongguk for any stress. The past day or two may be a blur but he should remember it within some time." Dr. Lee stood up straight, looking over his clipboard. "He received a broken neck and will have temporarily paralysis from the neck down."

Jungkook sighed softly, hearing all of of this. He could only imagine the pain and suffering Jeongguk would be in. How would he react to not being able to play football again for awhile? How would he feel after being told he broke his neck? Jungkook slowly nodded.

The young teen shook the slightly older teen in his arms, watching as Taehyung slowly began to awake. "We can see Jeongguk now." Informed the younger of the two.

The aforementioned nodded, letting out a yawn before he sat up, rubbing his eyes. He got off of Jungkook's lap, putting his hand out able to help the brunet to his feet.

Accompanied by Hoseok, Yoongi, and Jimin, the group followed the doctor to the room which held the injured Jeon Twin. Jungkook couldn't express the great deal of anxiety he felt. All he knew was he would be devastated.

Everything went into a moment of slow motion. The doctor's hand reached out to the doorknob, turning it to the right before applying his body weight onto the door, the creaking sound very noticeable but maybe that was due to how focused Jungkook was.

The lights weren't as bright as they seemed, the door fully opened in advanced to noticing the light.

The group waited to make sure Jungkook was okay. Taken by surprise, Jungkook looked over, seeing Taehyung give a small nod of his head, assuring the younger it was going to all be okay.

The brunet pushed off his heels, walking on inside of the hospital room.

Beeping filled his ears.

His eyes filled with tears.

Jeongguk's neck was wrapped with a thick cast, a breathing mask over his nose and mouth to provide him additional oxygen in case of any medical problems that may occur. Jeongguk's eyes were a tad bit swollen, his hair a mess. He looked exhausted though he had been put to sleep for nearly eight hours and more to sleep on.

The Jeon Twin who was hospitalized had IV put into his forearms, a pillow holding his head at a certain angle.

Jungkook steadily took hesitant steps, his heartbeat thumping against his ribcage, the loud beating of his organ filling his ears, the sound playing like a broken record; over and over and over again, causing his body to become cold the more he looked at Jeongguk, watching his brother like he was dying, feeling nothing but anger and sadness.

His knees wobbled, his legs were like jello, his hands began to tremble, his vision seemed blurred.

Why was his brother like this? Why did he need to play a sport? Why did he need to be hurt like this? Jungkook prayed his brother wasn't in this predicament. He wished out of all people it was him. He cared deeply for his brother.

"You're so stupid," breathed out Jungkook, feeling dizzy. He sat into a chair after bringing it behind him, taking a seat. "You're . . . Fuck, you're stupid, Jeongguk."

Taehyung remembered the story Jungkook told of he and Jeongguk, how Jungkook told Jeongguk he was stupid for getting into a fight and getting so hurt. Is this what he was talking about? He didn't really think he was stupid but was that all he could say?

"I think we should allow him to be here alone . . ." Commented Yoongi in a soft voice. "He needs to be here alone with his brother. I think the time alone will help him mentally. We should just go out and grab some pizza, maybe. We'll bring him back a slice or two." He added on in.

The rest of the group: Jimin, Taehyung, and Hoseok agreeing to the words that left from Yoongi's thin, doll-like lips. The least they could do in a moment like this would be to leave Jungkook alone and bring him some food in hopes he'll eat it.

The doctor led the four out of the room, walking them back to the lobby.

"Any immediate family won't be able to stay after a certain hour. If you plan to make a return, make it soon. If you want to wait until tomorrow, so be it." Dr. Lee bid a farewell to the small group.

"Should we wait until tomorrow?" Asked Hoseok.

"I want to at least bring him something to eat." Replied Jimin.

"Do you think he'll eat it?" Taehyung inquired.

"No, but it's the least we could do." Yoongi responded.

Since Yoongi didn't have a vehicle and Jungkook is the one that drove them to the hospital — and they particularly didn't have his keys — they called up an Uber that would drive them to a nearby pizza shop. One that wasn't the best but it wasn't the worst thing known to mankind.

"What type of pizza does Jungkook like?" Taehyung asked, not really too sure of what the younger would please to shove into his face.

The trio looked at Jimin, the second current youngest staring back. "What? I don't know!" He averted his gaze.

"You're a great best friend." Hoseok chuckled.

"Taehyung seems closer than me!" Jimin complained, crossing his arms over his surprisingly built chest.

After all of the issues that had occurred today, they felt a bit better having something to laugh about.

"Oh! Hey!" Seokjin grinned, waving to the reader. "I know, I haven't been in too many chapters, I get it. How dare the author, KEY, not put me into a lot of chapters, how dare she? But that's not why I'm here!" Seokjin dismissed the author so she wouldn't get any type of hate from the readers.

"I want you to know that you should vote! It's the star button somewhere on your screen. Also, you should check out The Boy Next Door! And, Missing Boy! They're great stories and I know I'm in both of those!" Seokjin poked his cheeks, acting like the adorable princess he was.
