Silent Secrets - Minsung

Chapter 38

Quick recap:
So Minho was given sleeping pills, his mother hired a woman to try to turn him straight and was beaten pretty badly when it didn't work. The next day, Chan and Changbin noticed that he wasn't at school. They broke into Minho's house and found Minho tied up. Then they called the police, got his mum in prison and had an ambulance take Minho to the hospital.

Again I am sorry for the last chapter's heaviness.

Wednesday morning:
Jisung's POV:

It was 7am when Jisung woke up and got ready as quickly as possible to go see Minho. He had gotten a phone call from Chan the night before saying that Minho was in the hospital, but no visitors were allowed to see him until the morning. Chan had said it wasn't his place to tell Jisung the reason, which made Jisung extremely worried and anxious but he understood. Jisung had barely slept last night though and woke up as early as he could to get to the hospital just as visiting hours start at 8am.

________________________________

"Hi, I am here to see Lee Minho," Jisung said to the front desk lady. "Ah ok, what is your relationship to the patient?" she asked. "I am his boyfriend" Jisung replied. "Ok, he is in room 212, 2nd floor. The elevator is down the corridor to your left." She explained. "Thank you." He bowed, then headed to the elevators.

It was a bit of a struggle to find Minho's room, but once he did he stopped outside the door. Anxious to go in and see Minho, but worried about his condition, if he saw Minho then this whole situation would become real. Jisung also realised that Minho had his own room, which usually was reserved for patients who were in bad condition. He shook his head, attempting to make the bad thoughts go. Taking a deep breath, he knocked on the door and entered. There he saw Minho, asleep in the bed, hooked up to all sorts of stuff. Sighing, he picked up the clipboard from the end of Minho's bed to read about his condition.

'Patient has 3 stab wounds in his abdomen, surface level cut across the throat and severe cuts around his wrists. Patient lost a lot of blood. The patient went into surgery for the stab wounds on arrival, surgery was successful. The patient is now to be checked on every 2 hours till further notice.' Horrified, Jisung put the clipboard back and went to sit by Minho's side. Taking Minho's hand and the other getting out his phone. He needed answers, so he called Chan.

"Chan, I need to know who the fuck did this to him. Or if you can't tell me, then at least tell me if they are in prison, or if there is an investigation being done. Please." Jisung begged. "Jisung, I can't tell you who did it. But yes they are in prison, thankfully." Chan sighed. "Please Chan, just tell me who did it," Jisung said with tears in his eyes. "He will tell you, I can't. I'm sorry. Anyway, are you with him?" Chan asked. "Yes..." Jisung replied. "How is he? I'll visit him after school, Changbin will also want to come, and maybe some of the others in the group." Chan said. "I don't know Chan, I mean the surgery went well apparently. But he is asleep right now, so I'm not sure how he is."  Jisung responded. "Ok well I have to go, class is about to start, but I will be there as soon as I can after school. Take care of him Jisung." Chan stated. "Ok, bye Chan," Jisung said, then hung up.

Turning his attention to his boyfriend, he ran his thumb over Minho's hand as he was holding it, and sighed. It felt like it was one bad thing after another. Even though he only had known Minho for around half a year, Minho was so special to Jisung. He didn't know what he would do without Minho. Laying his head down next to Minho on the bed, Jisung decided to try to sleep as he was so exhausted. The position was so uncomfortable, but thankfully he managed to sleep.

He awoke confused until he remembered where he was. Quickly, he sat up and looked at his boyfriend, who was staring back at him, with a small but loving smile on his face. "You should have woken me up," Jisung said. "I haven't been awake that long anyway, plus you looked so cute." Minho shrugged, then hissed. "You really shouldn't be moving, stop it," Jisung said sternly. Minho just laughed, then hissed in pain again. "Minho, stop it, you have had surgery on your abdomen, you are going to hurt yourself. Anyway, do you remember what happened? Jisung asked slowly. "Not much. It's a long story anyway." Minho looked away from Jisung as he spoke. "Can you tell me, please? I want to know who hurt you." Jisung replied, quietly, nearly in tears. Shrugging, Minho told Jisung while sobbing. By the time Minho had finished, Jisung was crying too. "Baby I am so sorry, you didn't deserve that. But why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have brought you new clothes and stuff. You didn't have to go back there." Jisung explained. "Exactly, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to have to do that. I was already basically living at your house, I didn't want you also buying me other stuff." Minho replied. "Buying you the world would be infinitely better than losing you in my opinion, money doesn't mean anything. I know you don't want to rely on people, but I'm your boyfriend. It's my job to take care of you." Jisung laughed. "No, I'm the one that's meant to take care of you, I am the top in this relationship. Don't get it twisted," Minho stated. "Mhm, you weren't saying that before, but sure you keep telling yourself that baby." Jisung grinned. "Shut up," Minho responded, rolling his eyes.

Just then the doctor came in, the boys turned their attention to him. "Hi Minho, I'm Doctor Song, but just call me Mingi, I don't care for formalities like that. Anyway, how are you feeling?" he asked. "Meh, everything hurts but I'm used to pain so I'm ok, thank you," Minho explained. "Very well, you should try to sleep some more, you will heal faster if you sleep a lot," Mingi stated. "I will try, thank you," Minho replied. Then the doctor left. "The doctor is right, you should probably sleep more baby," Jisung said. "Fine, but only because I know that you are tired, and you will only sleep if I sleep," Minho responded. "How did you know that" Jisung asked. "I can see it in your eyes, I know you well my baby," Minho explained. "Oh shush, go to sleep." Jisung laughed.

Minho's POV:

Later that afternoon, Minho was abruptly woken up by his friends loudly bickering. Without opening his eyes, Minho yelled, "Will all of you shut the fuck up, I was trying to fucking sleep. Why are you bickering in my fucking room, fuck off or shut the fuck up." "Wow, someone's grumpy." Seungmin snickered. Minho's eyes shot open and he glared at Seungmin. "Let me stab you and we will see how grumpy you end up." Minho proposed. Seungmin just rolled his eyes. "Well, I see you are healing well, back to your old personality" Hyunjin mumbled. "Don't test me, just because I'm laying in this hospital bed does not mean I won't put you on your ass, Hwang." Minho threatened. "Woah, ok. Minho, baby, breathe alright?" Jisung interrupted. "Can they leave already?"Minho asked. "Baby, they are here because they want to know how you are," Jisung responded. "Does that mean you told them what happened then?" Minho accused. "Baby, seriously. What's up with you right now? No, of course I didn't. But they knew you weren't in school, they asked and Chan told them where you were. That's all they know." Jisung assured. "Fine. But I'm tired, so they can leave now. They shouldn't have woken me up, maybe then I wouldn't be so 'grumpy'." Minho said. "Well, we will leave if that's what you want. But how are you feeling?" Chan asked. "People ask me that fucking question every 2 damn seconds in this place. I fucking hate it here. I fucking hate that I have you all worrying about me. There's nothing to fucking worry about. Just leave. Jisung when am I getting discharged? Go ask the fucking doctor please." Minho demanded. "Baby, you can't leave yet. You know that they said it'll be at least a day or two." Jisung replied. "Whatever. I feel fine. Now leave Chan and the rest of you. Go." Minho ordered. When they left, Minho said a simple goodnight to Jisung and tried to go off to sleep again.

I don't know why I made Ateez's Song Mingi be Minho's doctor but I did, so oh well.
Stan Ateez!

This chapter was the longest one in the book so far, I'm pretty sure.

Also, this hospital scene was the one thing that I said I would never write about because I don't like reading about them, but it seems like I broke that rule. His injuries were never meant to be bad, I only planned to have his mother hold him against his will and hurt him a little... I broke a lot of my rules and the story plan, but whatever.
