"You're not alone in this, Jungkook," Yoongi said softly, his voice steady and reassuring. "We're all here for you, and we'll get through this together."

Jungkook's breathing was still erratic, but the steady presence of his hyungs helped ground him. Jin continued to hold him close, murmuring soothing words into his ear, while Namjoon and Yoongi exchanged worried glances.

"Hyungs, I'm sorry," Jungkook whispered, his voice breaking. "I tried... I really tried."

Namjoon knelt down beside him, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. "We know, Kookie. And we're so proud of you for how far you've come. It's okay to have setbacks. What's important is that you're here with us now, and we're going to help you through this."

The door creaked open, and Hoseok, Jimin, and Taehyung appeared, their faces pale with worry. Hoseok's eyes widened as he took in the scene, but he quickly composed himself and rushed to Jungkook's side, kneeling down to join the others.

"Kookie, we love you," Hoseok said softly, his voice thick with emotion. "You don't have to carry this burden alone. We're a team, remember?"

Jungkook nodded, his tears still falling but his breathing beginning to even out. The presence of all his hyungs provided a sense of safety and support that he desperately needed. Jimin and Taehyung moved closer, their faces etched with concern, but they held back, giving Jungkook the space he needed.

Jimin reached out and took Jungkook's free hand, squeezing it gently. "We'll always be here for you, no matter what. You're never alone."

"Let's get you cleaned up and then we can talk," Taehyung suggested gently, his voice calm. "Together, we'll figure out how to make things better."

With Jin's help, Jungkook slowly stood up, his body trembling from the emotional and physical toll. Namjoon and Yoongi supported him on either side, their strong, steady presence guiding him out of the bathroom. The others followed, ready to help in any way they could.

In the living room, the members helped Jungkook sit down on the couch, wrapping him in a warm blanket. Jin brought a cup of tea, and Hoseok handed him a small, reassuring smile. They all sat around him, forming a protective circle.

"Let's talk, Kookie," Namjoon began, his voice gentle but firm. "What can we do to help you right now? What do you need?"

Jungkook took a shaky breath, feeling the love and support from his hyungs enveloping him. He looked around at their concerned faces, knowing that he wasn't alone. For the first time in a long while, he felt a glimmer of hope.

"I think... I need to talk more," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "About everything. The nightmares, the voices... everything."

"We're here to listen," Yoongi said, his voice unwavering. "Whatever you need to say, we're here for you."

"And we'll get through this together," Jin added, his voice filled with determination. "No matter how hard it gets, we're not giving up on you."

Jungkook nodded, tears streaming down his face once more, but this time, they were tears of relief. Surrounded by the people who loved him the most, he knew that he had the strength to face his demons, one step at a time.

The living room was bathed in a soft, warm light as the members settled in around Jungkook, their eyes filled with concern and support. Jungkook took a deep breath, the weight of his struggles pressing down on him, but he knew he needed to share his pain to start healing.

"Hyungs, the nightmares... they've been really bad," he began, his voice trembling. "They're not just dreams; they're memories. My dad... he was so cruel. He hurt me in ways I can't even describe. Every night, I relive those moments. The pain, the fear, the helplessness... it's like I'm back there all over again."
