"No! N-no! Chenle!" Jisung was carried down the corridor, his voice echoing down the walls.

Chenle dropped his head back down, looking at his lap. Kun was the first to approach, placing a hand on the younger's shoulder. "Don't worry, the doctor said that you will recover."

Chenle just nodded. He had concussion, a fractured shin and his voice had disappeared. The doctor said that he would recover in just over six months for his fracture, and only a couple of weeks for his concussion. They'd come to the conclusion that his voice was more of a mental thing, and he would overcome it in his own time. That was the only one without an actual time limit.

"You will need to stay in the hospital for the rest of the week." Kun grabbed the clipboard at the end of Chenle's bed. "then you can come home to the dorm and have some time off." Chenle nodded, since he couldn't word his thoughts. Kun smiled at the younger, patting his shoulder.

"We will come and visit whenever we can," Yuta said from the crowd of members.

"There will always be someone." Winwin added, seeing sweetly. That guy was literally made of sugar, in his own way.

Chenle nodded again. He opened his mouth but no sound obviously came out. He was mute from now on. Chenle needed to get to the bottom of this muteness, he needed to tell Jisung everything. He didn't mean for things to turn out this way. That bad feeling, he had in the morning was right on the nose, he followed his gut and now this is where they got.

I'm glad it wasn't Jisung... Chenle rubbed his eyes, feeling his body become heavier. If it was Jisung in his situation, Chenle would never have forgiven himself for feeling as though something was wrong. No matter what, Chenle would protect his Jisung.

Jisung was sat on his bed, hugging his knees to his chest. He was just staring aimlessly at his knees, his vision blurred and sore. The curtains were closed and the lights off, leaving the room in complete darkness.

It didn't feel right being in the room by himself. He didn't want any of the others to share his room while Chenle was gone. The elder would be back tomorrow, and Jisung wasn't sure how to react.

"Sungie?" Jeno opened the door quietly. "Are you okay?"

"Fine." Jisung answered quick and fast. He'd spent the past week secluded, even during dance practices he was still completely off.

Jeno sighed, walking into the room. He sat down on Jisung's bed, the younger not having any time of reaction. "Jisung?" Jeno tried again but still came across with silence.

"Am I... a bad person?" Jisung questioned.

"What!? No! Why would you say that?" Jeno felt outranged at the younger's sudden tone.

"For not... being 110% in practice..." Jisung mumbled, his eyes glancing over towards Chenle's bed. "I... I let you guys down..."

"Shut up, Jisung!" Jeno scolded, clenching his hands on his jeans. "You've let no one down" He sighed, "Manager-hyung was let out the hospital today, and Chenle wanted to come with him."

"What?" Jisung's head looked up at that. Their manager had broken both his legs but he was still content on doing his work. They had a replacement sure, but he called in everyday to back sure their schedule was being kept.

"Taeyong and Jaehyun are on their way to the hospital now to get them." Jeno informed, before getting back to his feet. "So please stop beating yourself up about this, Sung. The corner of your eyes is stupidly red."
