Not What We Expected.

Come Back Home. [Part 1]

The hours felt like days. They asked every doctor and nurse that walked by if Jungkook would be okay, nobody knew. On top of that, they also don't know what happened with Namjoon, although right now whatever was happening with him was the least of their concerns. They didn't care what happened to him anymore.

Finally, hours later, a doctor came in. "Mr. Jungkook's family?"

All the members shot up and ran to him. "Is he okay? Is he alive?!? Please just say he's alive, is he alive?!" Jimin yelled through his tears.

"Yes, he is alive."

Everyone let out a huge sigh of relief and hugged each other. It felt like they'd all been holding their breath this entire time.

"Well, how is he? Can we see him?" Hobi asked impatiently.

"He's doing a lot better than when he first got here. He's stable, and we were able to regulate his breathing. He did have 4 broken ribs that we had to repair. He also had internal bleeding in his stomach that we surgically stitched. We have him on a ventilator as he did inhale too much smoke, and unfortunately he did receive quite a few nasty burns. We have him medicated and bandaged up, but thankfully with the medical treatment we have here, they should all heal up perfectly. He most likely won't even scar, actually."

Everyone was so happy to hear Jungkook would be okay.

The doctor continued, "And also, he was pronounced dead at the scene. Mr. Yoongi I hear you brought him back?"

Yoongi blushed. "Ahh, yeah. I couldn't accept him dying so I just did what a brother would do," he said shyly.

"Well if you ever want a new job, we'll definitely hire you here!" the doctor laughed. " You may go see him now."

The doctor led them to Jungkook's room and left them alone.

They all slowly walked in to see Jungkook asleep , hooked up to all these wires and a ventilator to help him breathe. Tears started welling in everyone's eyes again, they hated seeing him so hurt.

It hurt them even more knowing that the person who put him in this position was someone they used to all love and trust. Jungkook was also hooked up to a heart monitor, everyone silently watched it and listened to his heart beating.

"This is a greater song than anything we could ever possibly create." Hobi said while wiping his tears. They all surrounded Jungkook's bed, and to their surprise he started to stir a little bit. Taehyung gently rubbed his maknae's arm. "Hey there, Kookie," he said softly. Jungkook slowly opened his eyes, but only slightly, he was exhausted.

"H...hyu..." he whispered, but couldn't quite get the word out. He couldn't talk with the ventilator in.

"Shh it's okay. You're okay. Just rest, we'll be right here for you. You're safe okay?" Taehyung reassured him, and Jungkook's eyes dropped as he quickly fell right back asleep. Yoongi ran his fingers through Jungkook's hair and just stared at him. He's going to be okay.

While hanging around in Jungkook's room, their manager called Jin.

Manager Jung knew the entire situation at this point and they had been going back and forth on how to move forward. They knew this would be all over the news, considering they couldn't hide Jungkook's injuries or the fact that Namjoon had just been arrested.

Manager Jung told Jin and the rest of the group that he would like them to give a public statement to ARMY, and tell them the truth, because everyone knew at this point Namjoon would not be back in the band. He wanted them to do it quickly, too. He arranged a location for them to record a public broadcast to discuss the events that took place and what was happening with Jungkook and Namjoon.
