The sterile scent of disinfectant hit Taehyung's nose as he walked inside the automatic doors of the hospital.

Taehyung wiped his sweat as he looked at the busy lobby of the hospital, his heart hammering a nervous rhythm against his ribs.

He approached the reception, a young woman with a nametag that read 'yeri' looked up at taehyung from her computer

"Yes, how may I help you ?" She said, her smile professional and polite.

"I need to see Jeon J- Jungkook" Taehyung managed to say his name, his voice thick with crying.

"And who are you to Mr. Jeon Jungkook, and your good name please?" she asked gently Her smile faltered slightly at the sight of Taehyung's tear-stained face.

Taehyung swallowed the lump in his throat, his voice barely a whisper, "I am K-Kim taehyung, We're college f-friends"

The receptionist typed away on her keyboard, her eyes scanning the screen. "Fourth floor, VIP section, third room,"

Tae thanked the receptionist with a small nod, his throat too tight to speak and turned, his legs carrying him towards the elevators

He reached the elevator and pressed the button for the fourth floor, As the elevator doors slid shut, Taehyung closed his eyes, willing himself to stay calm

The elevator ride felt like an eternity. Finally, the doors slid open, revealing the silent hallway of the VIP section.

Taehyung stepped out of the elevator, his heart pounding against his chest. He scanned the corridor, his eyes read to the numbers etched above each door. His gaze finally landed on the fourth room

Taking a deep breath, Taehyung walked towards the door, his steps echoing the silence. He reached out, his hand trembling slightly as he grasped the cool metal handle. A lump formed in his throat as he noticed a figure lying motionless on the bed through the small window on the door.

It was Jungkook

He looked closer and realized no one was there in the room, jungkook was alone, his heart clenching in pain as he saw Jungkook's pale face

jungkook's chest rose and fell with each shallow breath, Taehyung could see the faint outline of an IV drip attached to his arm

Taehyung walked inside the room Taking slow steps, He shut the door softly behind him, tears streamed down his face, blurring the sight of Jungkook lying motionless on the bed.

He reached out, a trembling hand gently brushing a stray strand of hair from Jungkook's forehead, he noticed that Jungkook's hand, forehead and leg were wrapped in white casts.

"Koo, I- I am so sorry, p-please forgive me," he pleaded, his voice hitched as he spoke, He knew Jungkook couldn't hear him, the medication keeping him in a deep sleep, Taehyung's choked sobs echoed in the silence of the room

Taehyung's voice cracked with each word, "Y-You loved me so much, I k-knew that," he cried softly, his hand trembling slightly as he rested it on Jungkook's arm.

"But s-still, I acted r-recklessly, and did this to you. And n-now you are like this b-because of me. I can't f-forgive myself for that."

"I was s-stupid," Taehyung continued, "I acted r-recklessly without thinking about you koo. I pushed you a-away when you n-needed me most." He buried his face in his hands crying hysterically

Taehyung looked up and he squeezed Jungkook's hand gently, "I k-know you can't hear m-me now," he whispered

"But when y-you wake up, I'll tell you everything. I'll e-explain how much I regret h-hurting you, how much your love m-means to me and how m-much I- I l-love you"

"I love you, Jungkook," he confessed "I love y-you more than words can say. Please, w-wake up. Please, come back to m-me."

Taehyung's soft sobs echoed in the room, he was wiping his tears constantly with the back of his hand looking at Jungkook's bruised face. He was lost in his own world of guilt and sadness

Suddenly the door got opened revealing Jungkook's aunty, her sharp eyes landed on the hunched fight beside Jungkook's bed

"Who are you?" she demanded with her stern voice, taehyung looked up startled by the sudden noise, with his tear stained face and she widened his eyes seeing Taehyung's beautiful face

Taehyung flinched, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand. He opened his mouth to speak, but the words seemed to catch in his throat.

Taking a deep breath, taehyung opened his mouth to respond, but the woman cut him off, her smirk widening. "Oh, so you must be the infamous Kim Taehyung, right?" she taunted, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

Taehyung stood up slowly, his legs were shaky He met the woman's gaze, his eyes pleading with a desperation. "Please," he rasped, his voice hoarse by crying so much. "I j-just want to see J-Jungkook."

The woman scoffed, her expression hardening in immense anger "You have no right to see him after what you've done," she spat, her words like daggers piercing Taehyung's already wounded heart

"I know," he choked out, his voice barely a whisper. "I know I messed up. But please, I just want to b-be there for him when he w-wakes up. Let me explain, let me a-apologize..."

"Jungkook loved you so much," she spat, her voice dripping with scorn. "He would've kept the entire world at your feet, you know that. But still, he's the one getting the consequences for loving you with all his heart. And what did you do? Huh? He's lying here because of you!"

Tears streamed down Taehyung's face, each word were piercing in his heart like a sharp knife, Shame burned in his chest, hotter than the tears that welled in his eyes realising that he had failed to see the depth of Jungkook's love. He had pushed him away without giving him a chance

He looked at the woman his eyes glistening with tears "I know," he choked out, "I know I m-messed up. I'll do whatever it takes to make t-things right. I'll be here, w-waiting for him to wake up, waiting for t-the chance to apologize, to show him how much he m-means to me, tell him how much I love my k-koo-

She cuts his words "Do you still think I will let you stay near Jungkook after whatever you did with him?" she snarled, her voice filled with disgust

Before Taehyung say something, the woman's hand shot out, her grip surprisingly strong as she grabbed his arm harshly With a forceful pull, she began dragging him towards the door

"No please Mrs Jeon!" Taehyung stumbled in his feet trying to resist by pulling his arms out of her grip while crying because, Her long nails dug into his arm making it bleed He glanced back at Jungkook, his heart clenching at the sight of his still form.

Taehyung's heart hammered against his ribs as Mrs jeon shoved him out of the hospital room and into the hallway, oblivious of Jungkook stirred slightly in his sleep, his fingers twitching as if sensing his love near him.

"Get lost before I call security and don't come here again," she spat, slamming the door shut on taehyung's face leaving Taehyung standing there like a statue

With a heavy heart, Taehyung turned and walked away from the room feeling devastated tears streamed down from his eyes like waterfall, his legs heavy with the weight of the world on his shoulders

He didn't know what the future held, whether he would ever be able to win Jungkook's love back or not.

Do you think taehyung will come back to see Jungkook????
