Renjun opened his eyes to be met by the white ceiling of the Hospital Wing back at the school. Even though the white room with the old looking hospital beds gave off a bit of a repulsive vibe he still felt relieved that he was back in the school. He pushed his body up in a sitting position and groaned as pain shot through his limbs. The assault pained him both physically and mentally and the fight gave him a few wounds.

Renjun looked around the hospital wing and noticed that five other beds except for his were occupied. He quickly inspected the beds and sighed in relief as his brother wasn't seen, that must mean that he is fine. As if on que Sicheng walked in through the doors. The two brothers made eye contact and the older hurriedly made his way to Renjun. Sicheng was about to hug his brother but when he realized that he flinched and moved back he stopped in his tracks.

Renjun didn't want to be scared by his own brother. Sicheng was so important for him and it hurt him a lot that his body had the instincts of moving away from him. He knew that Sicheng would never hurt him but he couldn't stop himself from being scared either way. When he noticed the slightly hurt look on the crown prince's face he felt a bit cold and shuddered, Renjun felt bad that he treated his brother like this.

"I'm sorry Winnie."

Renjun looked down at his lap and tightened his grip on the covers of the bed. Why did he have to be afraid of his own brother?

"It's okay Jun, you can't help it, I completely understand."

Renjun was happy to hear that and smiled to himself before his head shot up as he heard a groan from the other side of the room.

Jeno sat up even though his head was spinning from the effort. To heal his leg they used some sort of position that made him a bit weaker and now he was feeling the side effects. He groaned as his head started pounding and he layed back down again to keep from passing out. He closed his eyes and brought his hands up to massage his temples. He looked up again as he heard the patter of footsteps on the tiled floor. Jeno made eye contact with Renjun who became a bit flustered at that. The smaller didn't stop though and made his way to Jeno's bed. Renjun stood a bit awkwardly at the side of the Gryffindor's bed and looked to the floor while Jeno just looked at him questionably.

Jeno made eye contact with Sicheng who mouthed to him that Renjun wants to cuddle and he ah'd in response. Jeno lifted his covers a bit and Renjun took that as a signal to crawl down in the bed and cuddle up to his mate's side. Sicheng smiled at the sight and left the Hospital Wing, he couldn't do much for his brother anyway.

"Renjun."

"Hmm..."

"Are you alright?"

Jeno waited patiently for an answer while Renjun thought deeply to himself.

In the past few hours or days, he wasn't really sure, he'd been through a lot. He found out his brother was kidnapped and missing, he had sneaked out of Hogwarts to look for him, he had found his mate, then found his brother, then gotten raped, then found out he has a second mate, then escaped from a basement and the fought some strong wizards in the woods. That sure is a load of stuff that has happened and Renjun certainly hasn't had the time to collect himself after that so he definitely was not okay but it wasn't as if he's going to tell anyone that.

"No I'm not."

Renjun facepalmed at himself, more like at Niv, as he just betrayed himself.

"Can I help you in some way?"

Renjun felt warm and he could feel a bit of colour seeping onto his cheeks. It felt good to hear your mate saying that. Renjun whined a bit and hid his head in Jeno's chest. He felt embarrassed by the way he was acting and cursed himself for being an omega. Jeno didn't really know how to take that response and tried to change the subject instead.
