I Told You So

POV: Y/N

I stir, aware that I'm not at home but not completely sure where I am.

Attempting to figure out my whereabouts I open my eyes only to close them immediately.

Ouch.

I decide there's no point in trying to look around and settle for listening instead.

"Can I get Chipotle? This hospital food just isn't cutting it"

"Do I look like I have Chipotle money????"

"Oh come ooonnnn, pleaseeeee?? We'll get you something I promise; just tell us what you want"

"That's very kind, however, I still do not have the money for that"

"CHAAAAANNNNNN PLEASEEEEEEEEE"

My head begins to hurt slightly, the bright lights and whiny dude adding to my waking up ache.

"Do you mind keeping it down a little?" I ask, trying my best not to sound rude.

The room goes completely silent.

Confused, I place my hands in line with my eyebrows and squint my them open. Chan, Hyunjin, Jeongin, Changbin and Felix are scattered throughout my hospital room. All of them look like they haven't showered in a hot minute, changed clothes, nor slept.

"Damn, Chan y'all look like you need Chipotle actually....and a shower. How long have I been here? And could one of you turn the lights off?" I say, trying to keep my eyes open.

Jeongin scrambles to turn the lights off, the others speeding over to me.

All of them engulf me in a hug, Chan first. This doesn't feel like a 'good to see you awake, you've been out for an hour' type of hug. It seems more like a 'finally, it's been a week' type of hug.

"Why are y'all so star struck? I haven't been out that long have I?" I ask, finally able to see.

They all pull away, wiping tears as they stand around my bed.

I look at Chan, his eye bags even more prominent than usual, "Chan, how long have I been out?"

"A week and a half. It was medically induced for a week so your body could focus on healing. You're okay, but they did do surgery to take out the bullet since it was lodged somewhere. No vital organs were struck which is good. You've just lost a lot of blood and they wanted to make sure nothing else happened" He tells me, looking incredibly sad and guilty.

"A week and a half? You'd think I'd feel rested being out that long.." I respond, trying to lighten the mood a bit.

They laugh slightly, fond smiles looking at me.

"You literally got shot and you're making jokes, you fit in so much better than we anticipated" Changbin says, laughing at himself and smiling at me.

"Sounds like a certain someone we know" Hyunjin adds, also slightly laughing at himself.

The room goes quiet again. Everyone now looking down and around and shifting their weight.

"Where are the other three?" I break the silence.

They look between each other. Seemingly trying to figure out what to say. Slightly worried eyes staring back at me.

"They're at home. Han and Seungmin are on Minho duty" Jeongin answers softly.

"Minho duty? Is he sick?" I question further, looking for how to move my bed so I can sit up further.

"Uhm, no. He took you getting shot a lot harder than anyone else. We haven't seen him leave his room since the majority of us went home that morning" Changbin explains further, moving my bed up as he noticed my struggle.
