Author's pov

When Namjoon and Seokjin were done with the food, they packed everything up and went back to the hospital.

Taehyung's pov

I woke up feeling drowsy, my lids were heavy, and so was my body. I opened my eyes just to be met with the intense light too bright for my liking, I tried using my hands to cover my eyes, but I couldn't feel them.

I just laid there and let my body get used to the sudden changes, I still can't grasp the situation I'm in. All I know is that I'm in a hospital and.... wait, hospital?

Why am I in a hospital? The memories of what happened came rushing in, my brain suddenly jotting into action.

I was shot... I tried lifting my arm to my stomach in a miserable attempt to feel the bullet shot, but my body was still heavy. Maybe the anaesthetic was yet to wear off. I closed my eyes, dozing off again.

The next time I came by, my body felt lighter. I didn't rush to open my eyes as I let it adjust to the brightness of the room.

When I opened my eyes, I took in my surroundings. I was in a VIP room of a hospital. I was not alone as I could hear soft snores coming from my side.

My body wasn't as heavy as it was before but it was still weak, I raised my hand and placed it on the place were I was supposedly shot by a bullet, I winced a bit as the place was still sore.

I just laid there looking at the ceiling. My head was empty, clear, and peaceful. I can't remember the last time I had zero thoughts in my head. It felt so nice.

I finally lifted my head to the side to see who it was that was keeping me company.

It was my boyfriends... ex boyfriends, they were snuggled up to each other on the huge couch beside my bed, sleeping peacefully. Kook had a cute pout on his lips as he squeezed the he'll out of Hobi. He had his mouth slightly opened as small snores left his lips.

A small giggle left my lip looking at them. It felt so nostalgic, I can't remember the last time I had the glory to look at them this way.

A lone tear left my cheek, I've missed them so much, I wanted to just leave my bed and go to hug the living daylight out of them, but I couldn't.

I'm no one to them now, so why should I have the liberty to hug them. I shouldn't push my luck. I should be glad that they showed up to even greet me.

I didn't know I was full-on crying until I choked on my own tears as they fell rapidly down my cheek, I tried shutting myself up, afraid I'll wake them up. Why should I be a burden to them the moment I wake up.

The thoughts in my head did nothing but fuelled my tears. Why must I always be weak? Can't I be their strength?

"Tae, are you okay? Are you hurting anywhere? Why are you crying?" Came Hobi's frantic voice. Great... I woke them up, I couldn't even cry without being a burden.

He hugged me as I struggled to let out a word. To at least tell him that I'm just being pathetic and nothing was wrong. I could feel myself being wrapped in their embrace. It's so warm.

Moments later, I calmed and tried to wiggle my way out of their hold, not wanting them to push me away when they realised that I'm okay.

I know they gave me the chance to be friends, but I don't wanna push it too far. Being their friend is more than enough for me.

The hold they had on me tightened when they realised I was trying to break free. I let out a broken sob as I snuggled into Kook's chest. I wanted to speak, but the words weren't coming out.

I wasn't crying, I knew I wasn't, but I just couldn't find the voice to speak with, so I decided to just hug them tighter. Relishing the feeling of their warmth and scent.

I inhaled deeply as I snuggled closer. "You okay now?" Kook asks me, I could feel the vibration of his voice when he spoke, and it was soothing and slowly lulling me to close my eyes. I wasn't sleepy, If not, I could've slept long ago.

I nodded my head and snuggled even closer, pushing his back against the headboard. He chuckles at my clinginess and continues to rub soothing circles on my back.

I looked up from his embrace, noticing that Hobi was awfully quiet. He was looking at us teary-eyed with a gentle smile on his face. I wanted to get up and hug him, but I didn't want to open my stitches.

I didn't know when, but Kook had me in a sitting position at some point. I opened my arms to indicate him to join the hug, which he gladly did.

The words could wait. We had an awful lot of time to say them, but we needed this. Our little comfort time, to tell each other that we are there for one another and we had always been.

It felt so blissful to be in their embrace, a feeling I thought I would never get the chance to experience again.

After some time, I looked up just to be met with a pair of lips on mine. Of course, I knew who it was. The kiss was slow and deep, Kook always gives this kind of kisses when he wants to reassure himself.

He tasted like banana milk. He probably had one before sleeping. I smiled into the kiss before pulling back only to be met with another pair. A light chuckle left my chest.

The slow sensual kiss and gentle breath released by kookie who had his head buried in my neck made me feel blissful.

This was more than I could ask for, it was all I needed at the moment. Just the three of us.

My stomach growled just when it was getting too comfortable. A small blush appeared on my cheeks, as both my boyfriends chuckled.

There was a knock at the door and all the other members rushed in. I was met with a series of questions about how I'm feeling.

Jin hyung poured some soup for which as usual tasted heavenly, I was leaned against Kook as hobi fed me. This was more than I ask for.

Having my friends, who are more like a family close to me, and the best part of it all I got my boyfriends back.

'My boyfriends' I like the sound of that.

Thank💜
