2 days have gone by, and he is still asleep. I've pretty much slept here the entire time, not letting go of his hand. I keep talking to him and telling him about random things, just to keep myself occupied. At least when I'm alone. At the moment, they're all with me. Including Mabuchi who is checking on him.

'He has been stabilizing more and more by the minute. Whatever is going on in there, he's almost controlling it. Talk about strong will.' He chuckled as he read through some graphs

'Does that mean he will wake up?' Jungkook asks Mabuchi

'I believe so. By the results here, I'd say he's close to waking up.'

'What about his memory? Is this going to affect it?' I am scared that he might forget everything all over again

'That, unfortunately, is a grey area. He could continue where he left off, remembering it all, or he could reset and forget it all. That, we can't know until he wakes up.'

At least he's honest. I did explain to him in detail every single thing that happened. How he cried, screamed, bled... everything. He needs to know. I sure as hell can't help much with this.

'Rain, I wouldn't worry much about it.' Hoseok was right behind me, and he put his hand on my shoulder, smiling kindly at me. 'You brought him back once. You can do it again if needs be.'

'He's right. The man didn't even know his own name, and he fell in love with you again. I think you're safe.' Yoongi adds to it

'A few hours before this happened, he told me he loved me.' I smiled at the thought, squeezing his hand a little

'Shit, really?!' Jungkook grinned widely

'That was faster than I expected, but I'm not surprised. He was stuck to you like a blind man to a walking stick.' Jin chuckles

'It sure took me by surprise.' I chuckle. 'It's not like I didn't know, but I thought he would take a lot longer, seeing how confusing everything is for him.'

'You said this happened a few hours prior to this?' Mabuchi looks up from his papers

'Yes. Is that important?' I ask

'Most definitely. As I mentioned before, his feelings were supposed to be shut off, but even with that lid I put on it, he just popped it open again. Or you did. If he managed to unlock whatever I locked, then that would have been a big factor in what happened to his brain. Our emotions are connected to our brains.'

'He's like this because he's in love with me?'

'Something clicked along with his emotions. We just have to wait and see what happens.'

'I hope you realise that your life depends on the state he wakes up in.' I looked up at him. 'You're the one who did this to him. Don't forget that.' The tone I used was anything but pleasing. Even the guys looked uncomfortable. But I'm only telling the truth. It's his fault.

'I understand.' He gulped and nodded. 'But I didn't do this for the fun of it. I had my family on the line.'

'I understand.' I repeat his words to him. 'But you messed with my family. And if I lose him in any way, shape, or form, you better know that I'm keeping every single promise I made to you. And then you will suffer the most unimaginable, excruciating death.'

'Rain.' Namjoon said my name in that caring tone of his, trying to diffuse the situation. 'He's aware of what awaits him. Arguing over it now won't change a thing.'

He has a point, but having Jimin pretty much on the line between life and death is making me want to slaughter this doctor here and now.

'Just keep talking to him. It might help.' He spoke again softly, being considerate

'Can you wake up and defend me a little? I can't argue with all of them on my own.' I whine at Jimin, laying my head on his hand, listening to his heart rate going up

'There you go. Annoy him awake.' Jungkook grins at me

'I'll tell him you touched me up or something. Don't test me.' I threaten him, making the guys burst out laughing over his pouting and complaining

I started laughing a tiny bit myself, but I was quickly pulled into a shock mixed with expectancy when I felt Jimin's hand move the tiniest bit. Of course, none of them saw it as they were laughing, and I'm holding his hand, so it's not the clear view, but I can feel it.

'What is it?' Jin noticed me going into a shock mode

'He moved. He moved his fingers. I felt him move.' I mumbled it out, looking at his hand, speaking a bit louder. 'He moved.'

All of them came a bit closer, and Mabuchi went straight for the screen, reading the graph.

'Jimin, can you hear me? Can you do that again?' I ask, letting go of his hand to see better, but nothing

'There is no reading on his brain scan. Usually, when people move, there is a reading.' Mabuchi says, looking at me

'I felt it!' I argue

'Maybe it just... seemed like it?' Jin said it like I'm an idiot

'We want him up and running just as much as you do, Rain. Maybe you just-'

'I'm not insane! He moved!' I yell back

'Okay, okay.' Taehyung calmed everyone down. 'There are cases where people move without a reading. Right, doc?' Taehyung turns to him

'Yes, of course.' He confirms, but it sounded more like he lied to calm me down

'And we can't see from far away. She was right there. So we can't argue any more than she can.' He says to the guys. 'So, just calm down. It's a good sign. Let it be.'

I know I can be crazy when I want to, but I'm not so delusional to make up things. I hope at least. Now, even I'm wondering if I've gone crazy.
