[19: LISTEN : TRUTH]
Niki's whole body shook as he stared at the gun in front of his face. It felt as if time had nearly stopped. He watched as the bodyguard pulled back the trigger. There was nothing he could do, he felt hopeless. The bodyguard pulled the trigger and Niki closed his eyes, accepting his fate. Except... the bullet never hit him.
He opened his eyes and saw the bodyguard with his hands up and police surrounding him. He also saw Sunghoon standing with them. "You're under arrest!" The officer said. The bodyguard dropped the gun and surrendered.
A nurse untied Niki and examined his neck. Niki grunted in pain. "Get him to the hospital to get this checked out. The cuts not deep, but it still needs to be treated." The nurse said. The doctors nodded.

Cheonsa swung her feet as she called Niki. But instead of Niki answering, Sunghoon did. "Oh Sunghoon. Why do you have Niki's phone?" Cheonsa asked. Sunghoon sighed, "your friend decided to do something stupid, so now he's on his way to the hospital." He said. "What?! Is he okay? What did he do?" Cheonsa asked. "Don't worry about it the kid will be fine." Sunghoon assured. "What. Happened." Cheonsa asked sternly.
Sunghoon sighed, "He went after your attempted murderer and almost got himself killed. But like I said, I'm sure he'll be fine." He said. "Fine?! You said he almost got killed! I don't want a "I'm sure he'll be fine" I need you to be certain!" Cheonsa said, her voice filled with worry. Sunghoon went silent.
"Heal him or something!" Cheonsa nearly yelled. "Relax. The doctors got it." Sunghoon said softly. Cheonsa hung up.

Niki blinked as he tried to get his eyes to focus on the amount of doctors looking at him. "He's awake." He heard one say. "Get the antibiotic." Said another. "Riki, how's your neck?" A nurse asked. "Uhm-" Niki was cut off by multiple questions at once. "Do you feel dizzy?" "Lightheaded?" "Nauseous?"
"All three." Niki replied, rubbing his eyes. "From what we saw, you lost a lot of blood but due to the adrenaline rush you didn't notice. It didn't start effecting you until you got here and calmed down. Does anything hurt?" A nurse asked calmly. "It stings." Niki replied. The nurse nodded, "I'm your nurse so if you need anything hit that buzzer. Guys get out before you overwhelm the poor boy."
She and the doctors left and Niki sighed.
"Hey Niki." Cheonsa said, walking in. Niki's eyes lit up, "Hey Cheonsa." "How are you feeling?" She asked. "I'm fine. It just stings a little." Niki replied. "Now that I know you're okay, What the hell were you thinking?!" Cheonsa asked. Niki sighed, "It was on an impulse." Niki replied. "Don't ever do anything like that ever again." Cheonsa said sternly, flicking his forehead. Niki nodded.
"Shouldn't you be resting as well?" Niki asked. "Don't worry about that. Are you sure you're okay? Are you hungry? Thirty? Sleepy? Do you need anything? Do you want me to bring your laptop? Are you allowed to have a laptop in here?" Cheonsa ranted. "Relax, I'm fine." Niki reassured.
Cheonsa sighed and gave him a hug. Niki hugged back and relaxed. "Cheonsa." Niki started. "Yeah?" Cheonsa replied. "Can you stay here until I fall asleep. You can just sit in the chair and rant." Niki said. "Yeah sure." Cheonsa smiled, sitting in the chair and immediately going on her rants.
Niki laid down and smiled as he listened.
