As soon as they got the news they all hurried back, once reaching the castle, Eun ho left her bike, in the middle, the other members telling her to just go and that they will take care of it. Her heart was beating fast, she ran as fast as she could through the castle hallways.

Her footsteps loud in the quiet castle, she could feel tears pricking her eyes, but she didn't let them fall. Eun ho barged into the room, all the members startled at her action, and looked back to see her. Even Chanyeol was there. But Eun ho didn't pay any attention to any of them.

Her eyes were searching for him, and when their eyes locked. Everything just disappeared in thin air. Eun ho stood there speechless. No words could express what she felt. Jongin was sitting there in the middle of the bed, his back leaning against the headboard.

He didn't even look, as if he wasn't just unconscious for three days.  His beautiful tan skin glowed in the evening sun, which entered the room through the windows. His hair was the same gorgeous chocolate brown. Jongin was wearing a white shirt, maybe the other members helped him change and all.

But, he looked so peaceful and Eun ho on the other hand was the total opposite. She felt as if she would burst at any moment with how overwhelmed she felt at the moment.

" Jongin " A whisper fell from her lips. A soft smile spread on his face, as he slightly moved to, maybe get out of the bed. But groaned when he felt pain in his back. "Jongin don't move just yet. You have just woken up, your body still needs some time to adjust. " Lay spoke. Suho helped Jongin to sit against the headboard again.

Eun ho stepped forward and sat on the bed, beside Jongin, she wanted to do nothing but to just hug him tight, and tell him how afraid she was, but she didn't know what to say to the man, who was now looking at her with the affection that she longed to see.

Jongin reached for her hand on her lap and clasped their hands together. Eun ho held his hand tightly, which surprised Jongin a little but he just smiled at the action. He knew that Eun ho had a lot to say and Suho and Lay did tell him, that Eun ho's demeanor changed when he was not getting up.

" How are you feeling now, Jongin? " Luhan asked softly. The older felt a little guilty as it was because of him that Jongin was hurt in the first place. He knows that the members will outright tell him that he was absolutely wrong for thinking that, but he couldn't help but feel that way.

" I'm feeling good Hyung, just a little pain on my back, but that's nothing I can't handle. " Jongin smiled at the older. Luhan returned the smile. " It's good that you are alright now. " Kyungsoo spoke. Even though Kyungsoo was showing that it didn't really affect him. The older was very much worried looking at his dongsaeng in that condition. He wanted nothing more than for Just Jongin to get up.

" Thank you, Hyung. " Jongin said. He knew that obviously there was going to be a lot the members wanted to talk about, but for now, he wanted nothing more than to just spend some time with Eun ho, who was now almost crushing his hand. He had glanced at her once, but she had kept her head down and was looking at their intertwined hands on her lap. 

Baekhyun seemed to have understood what the two wanted, so he quickly asked the other members to start leaving the room. Jongin gave all of them a thankful smile as they left the room one by one, closing the door behind them softly.

" Hey " Jongin called softly. Eun ho kept caressing their hands. " Hi " Her reply almost a whisper. They sat in silence for a while. Jongin wanted Eun ho to speak first, he did notice how the girl was holding back her feelings and he wanted to know what triggered her to hold back those feelings. When she remained quiet, Jongin called her again, " Eun ho "
