HEMOPHILLIA [vkook]

42: healing

[Tuesday]

Location: Seoul - 1:00 pm

A week has passed and Jungkook was finally allowed to walk around on his own. his left leg was in a bad state which made him having to use a walking stick until it fades. Luckily it will heal over time, soekjin said it was only temporary. The two should be glad they were even alive, their wounds will heal. but their broken bones will stay weak for a very long time. Currently Taehyung and Jungkook are outside in the alley next to the door, getting some fresh air while drinking some tea and coffee.

"How are you?" Jungkook asked, he kept asking everyday.

"It still hurts, but I'm fine. you look worse" taehyung chuckled looking at jungkook who sat next to him. one leg stretched the other up to rest his coffee cup on his knee which he held in his hand.

"hmm, I guess I am. but i can take it" jungkook replied looking at the end of the alley seeing some people pass by in the distance behind the fence. he didn't mind the pain if it means taehyung will be safe but this wasn't the case. Both were in pain and Jungkook couldn't do anything about it, which was something that really bothered him. He took the last gulp of his coffee and placed the cup next to him on the dirty alley ground.

"You finished already?'' Taehyung said looking at the other's empty cup, he still had half of his tea.

"mhm"

Taehyung sighed softly, Jungkook had been very silent ever since he woke up. He was a bit different. He wasn't quite the same anymore. something must be really bothering him, but taehyung couldn't get him to tell him what was wrong. Jungkook kept saying that he should not worry himself over him, but Taehyung couldn't do anything else. it wasn't that easy to ignore something like this.

"Shall we go back inside, you have to eat something..." Taehyung said. Jungkook gave a nod and got up with Taehyung's help. using the stick they walk back inside hearing taehyung lock the door behind them. He didn't like the stick, he wanted to be on his own legs but it was painful to walk on his left leg. He sighed walking through the narrow hallway to the underground base. the smell of food lingering in the air.

"I think it's soup!" Taehyung smiled walking close to Jungkook, the raven snaking an arm around his husband's waist. He didn't care if he was practically disabled and falling apart he still had to hold his husband close. Taehyung was always his nr.1 priority. no matter the time.

"you're back, we just set the table," Soekjin said, greeting the two. he noticed taehyung was looking better, only jungkook still looked like he just woke up from a 100 year sleep. His posture wasn't so tough anymore, more slumped. his eyes were tired. a very different jungkook than he knew at first.

"I am hungry, and Jungkook will eat too today!" Taehyung smiled and walked with Jungkook to the other room which they set up as a dining room using a small table and some chairs. it wasn't anything close to luxury, but it will do.

The three sat down and watched yoongi walk in with the soup meal. it was filled with pieces of chicken and rice, very delicious. They all filled their bowls and started eating. Taehyung glanced at jungkook seeing him only stir the golden colored water in his bowl. poking some of the chicken while he was at it.

"Koo...love, eat something" taehyung sighed, jungkook was barely eating anything. It was worrying him. The raven looked at the other, not saying a word before looking back, continuing with staring at the bowl. "If you don't finish that sup i will shove it down your throat" the boy whose hair was no longer red only some of the tips, said.

Jungkook gave the one next to him a glare and sipped a little of his soup with a displeased expression on his face.

"Good boy, I'm proud of you," Taehyung chuckled patting Jungkook's head.
