"It is finally official, Stray kids are going to kingdom"A staff member celebrated
"Well, because we are giving them this oportunity, they really need to step up their game and prove to us that they deserve to be in JYP" Another said but what they didn't know is that the same Stray Kids were listening to their conversation.
Inside their dance practice room now there's caos, a mix of worried members and creative members.
"They want us to prove ourselves? We have done that over and over!"
"Yeah like, what do they want more?"
"Maybe we could add some risky cool tricks?"
"Won't that be dangerous?"
"Not really, if we have a good instructor then nothing should happen"
But of course, It happened...
"Okay kids, do you have any ideas first? The instructor asked
"Yeah, we were thinking about doing some risky tricks like a back flip or something? Bang Chan stepped up
"You sure? It's the first round, maybe you'll be putting yourself too high first off" the instructor doubted
"Yeah, we're sure"
"Okey, so who actually knows how to do a back flip?" Bang chan, Minho and Hyunjin raised their hands.
"Good, I thought no one would raise their hand"
"Do you really think so lowly of us?" Lee know joked and they had a good laugh.
...
"Now that the choreo is finished let's get the cameras rolling tomorrow" The instructor said
"For what?" They didn't know they would also film at the studio
"For the behind the scenes of course"
The next day they started right away, they had a 4 hour practice ahead of them.
It was going smoothly untill...Hyunjin fell.
Silence rained in the room everyone was paralyzed on their places not knowing what to do, the cameras were still rolling and Hyunjin was still on the floor, and moving in shock like the others.
Changbin was clutching his ear, him getting hurt when the younger fell onto his back, the shoe scratched the left side of his face.
Chan was the first to react seconds later, rushing to the trio who were doing the trick.
"Hyunjin-ah, Changbin-ah, you okay?" Worry laced in his voice.
" yes, don't worry about me, it's just a scratch" Changbin snapped out of his trance. Even though he said it was nothing, his hand was stained with blood from his earring being scraped out of his ear forcefully .
Chan of course noticed but knew how stubborn the rapper could be so he centered he's attention on Hyunjin who was still laying on his back, his eyes unfocused.
"Jinnie, hey, you there?" He was starting to get really concerned, the younger wasn't responding, not even acknowledging the leaders presence.
While this was happening, the others started to snap out of their shock, Felix being the first to go to Changbin's aid, getting him out of the room, out of the cameras eyes so as to get his injury treated.
Inside of the practice room Hyunjin finally reacted to Chan's words, groaning in pain while trying to sit up, only to flop back down by a hand pushing down his chest.
"Don't move yet aegi, we still don't know where or how much you got hurt"
"My back hurts..." Tears began to fall down his face.
"Can you be more specific please baby?"
"Is it on the lower side or close to your neck?" Minho stepped in.
"L-lower" he whimpered
"That's good" the older mumbled "And on a scale from 1 to 10 how much does it hurt?"
"Eight... It's hard... to breathe" his eyes started to roll up.
"Jinnie, Jinnie, you need to stay awake honey" Chan quickly rushed.
Hyunjin fought his conciousness, it was exhausting but he won the battle at last.
Seeing the dancer more awake, the leader adreesed the other problem.
"Breathe with me Jinnie, follow my pace even if it's hard" he placed Hyunjin's palm on his chest, exagerating his breathing so it would be easier to follow.
Luckily the dancer hadn't broken any rib so as he calmed down, he was able to take deeper breaths.
"Is it still hurting as much?" Minho asked again just in case
"Now it would be a six..."
"That's good, let's wrap it up and go home early, You and Changbin are in no shape to keep dancing" Chan said while glancing at the manager who nodded in understanding.Hyunjin woke up that night to a sharp pain on his back, then he realised he needed to use the bathroom.
With a pained groan he got up, a dizzy spell hiting him like a truck. He grabbed the bedframe, waiting for it to pass.
Once he felt a bit better he struggled to the bathroom, it left him panting from the effort of staying upright in pain.
After using the bathroom with difficulty he was getting out of the room when another sharp pain hit him and suddenly blackspots appeared in his vision.Chan woke up to a thud.
At first he thought he dreamed it but after thinking for a moment he went to check on the members just in case.
After going in and out of all the bedrooms he noticed Hyunjin was missing so he checked the rest of the house with concern. After checking the living room and the kitchen he was nowhere to be found but he still had a room left to look at, the bathroom.
He tried opening the door but couldn't.
"Jinnie, you there?" He worriedly asked but he didn't get a response.
What he found weird was that the door wasn't locked, it just didn't open so he tried again.
Once he struggled to open it enough, he stepped in only to find that what had been blocking the door was Hyunjin himself. He was laying livelesly face down the floor, his neck was in a painfully weird position and blood could be seen on the edge of the sink.
He quickly rushed over to the dancer and turned him over carefully so as to not agribate the injury on the dancer's back.
He was scared.
Hyunjin had his eyes open and unfocused, he was as pale as a sheet but what was more concerning was the gash on his forehead covering his black hair with blood.
He looked dead.
"Hyunjin, hey, wake up Jinnie" he lightly tapped his cheek and the younger groaned in pain as his eyes focused a bit but still clearly disoriented.
"Let's go back to bed, come on aegi" The dancer nodded still out of it.
Chan walked (read: carried) Hyunjin to his room and sat him on his bed quietly so as to not wake up the other members and took care of the gash.
He was worried that a concussion would be added to the list of injuries but he decided it would be better to visit the hospital in the morning because he still didn't know how the younger ended up like that.That morning, at eight o'clock the duo were already at the hospital's waiting room. Hyunjin was pale and half leaning on Chan's shoulder whom looked about to start crying in concern.
"Mr. Hwang?" A nurse called while they struggled to get out of the chairs "Follow me please"
They were brought to a white room which Chan assumed to be the doctor's office as there was a desk at the side.
Chan helped Hyunjin lay down on the hospital gurney while the nurse took the dancer's vitals.
After what seemed like years, the doctor finally entered the room.
"Hi I'm Dr.Choi, I'll be attending you today" he greeted "So what seems to be the problem here?"
"Yesterday he fell on his back while practicing and tonight I found him passed out on the bathroom, I think he hit his head on the sink because of the pain" Chan explained
"Alright, I'll run some tests, You may wait outside" the doctor said politely
...
Chan was called back in an hour later.
"So it seems he fractured this vertebra here which means he should be put in a back brace for at least six weeks and pain reliever, after, he shouldn't do any dancing for two more weeks. If it does not get better we'll have to consider surgery. And for the concussion it's luckily not a severe one so the only thing that could be a problem is dizziness and desorientation." The doctor explained
After that, he called the manager to inform him about the situation. It looked like Hyunjin would be put in a hiatus.
A few days later the statement was publicated:
"Hello, this is JYP entretainment.
We're sorry to announce that the member of Stray Kids, Hwang Hyunjin will be going on a hiatus due to some health issues. We hope you understand and will wait patiently for him to get better.
Thank you"
...
The recovery was going quite good, the members helped Hyunjin in everything they could.
The first days were painful and weird. Hyunjin got a pretty high fever that almost sent him back to the hospital but other than that, it was going smoothly.
"Do you want to update Stays about your condition?" Chan asked a month after the incident
"Yes but how? I'm on hiatus..." Hyunjin pouted, it was unfair that JYP didn't let him communicate with Stays.
"Fuck JYP, you can appear in tomorrow's Chan's room" They both laughed
"okey hahhah"The next day ten minutes into the Vlive:
Comments->"I'm curious, who's the special guest?"
Chan read that comment out loud.
"If you wait a minute I'll show you" He got out of the camera's eyes where Hyunjin was waiting quietly on a wheeled chair.
They smiled at each other and the older rolled Hyunjin in front of the camera.
The chat exploded with a mix of happy and worried comments.
Coments-> "what happened to you? We're so worried
Hyunjin read it out loud
"I injured my back during practice" he pouted "But I'm getting better, in two weeks they'll take out the backbrace and I'll be on my feet again" he added smiling.
Coments->"How did that happen? :0"
"As you already know we are participating on Kingdom and our choreography has a really difficult trick only Hyunjin here is able to do and he fell badly on his back while doing it at practicd" Chan replied.
After the live finished Hyunjin felt motivated to heal and although he can't oarticipate in Kingdom, he was determined to give it his all for the new album.
