You quietly hummed it yourself as you got busy with moving Jungkook's clothing around. The boy laid still on the bed, not moving at your touch, which made you want to frown.

"Okay, Kookie." You spoke to him. "I'm gonna have to give you a sponge bath, so bare with me." As you finished talking, you began to move his shirt off him. Your eyes slowly went wide the more skin you began to expose.

"Lord, give me strength." You whispered to yourself. You rung the rag out in a water bucket, moving to clean Jungkook's clammy skin and tried your best to get him as fresh as possible, keeping your eyes on your work.

Once again, this is your job. You kept repeating to yourself.

As you got to the end of his arm, you sighed to yourself, leaning back. "Oh Kook. When are you gonna wake up?" Your bottom lip trembled. "I miss you. I want to see your bunny smile again."

You went to grab onto his hand laying at his side, intertwining your fingers with his. "The boys all miss you. Hobi is really worried; Jin as well. He keeps coming to give you food and stuff. It's hard when you won't get up to eat it, though." You tried to laugh, but it came out breathlessly.

"(Y/N)." You smiled up at the boy who had entered.

Just like always, he had a plate of food, moving to place it on a table.

"Hi, Jin." You grinned at him. "How's your day going?" You asked.

Jin kept his eyes on you, pursing his lips as he watched your eyes full of unshed tears. However, you still kept your smile, trying to move on. He chose to grant you the wish, not wanting to make you more upset.

"The same as always." Jin shrugged. "Have you already done your rounds?" He asked you.

"Yeah." You answered, turning back to Jungkook. "I usually check on Joon first to come see Jungkook for a bit longer."

"Forgetting about the rest of us?" Jin teased, a grin on his plump lips.

"I could never!" You looked over at him, appalled. I"'ll have you know, I hung out with Taehyung and Jimin just the other day." You smiled, remembering the two youngest bickering over the top of Jungkook.

"One of you is always here with me." You began to think about how all of them would somehow find a way to be in the room with you. "I enjoy all your company. I'm sure Jungkook likes it too."

"Ah, yes." Jin hummed.

He began to think about all that Jimin had told the group from the other day. He had heard some of your conversation with Taehyung, which prompted him to ask out loud if any of them had told you about what they were. It was clear none of them had spoken to you about it, but the others were starting to have their suspicions about you knowing on your own.

Hobi claimed you still had your mark, so it wasn't something you just suddenly remembered. When Hoseok had explained this, Jin remembered the day you were in Jungkook's room and he had entered. He knew you had rushed to put down a book you were reading, and when you left he had taken a look. It had been Hoseok's journal you were reading.

"They told me about that." He moved to take a seat next to Jungkook's feet. "(Y/N) what do you think about magical creatures?" He asked absentmindedly.

You looked up at him, tilting your head. "They're cool?" You told him, confused as to where he was going.

"Do you believe in them?" He looked at you, holding eye contact as he waited.

You sucked in a breath, feeling like he was looking for a specific answer. You glanced at Jungkook, frowning. "I can't tell you." You answered.

"Why not?" Jin stressed, shuffling closer to you. "Tell me." He demanded.
