It was meant to be (A Seventeen Fic)

Yoongi was still sitting in his previous position. Seokmin's hand in his and caressing it.

Seokmin and Jeonghan still hadn't gained their consciousness.

Seungcheol sat beside Jeonghan and the three younger Lee siblings were by Seokmin's other side.

Seungcheol felt a movement near his side, he looked over to see Jeonghan stirring in sleep.

Slowly Jeonghan opened his eyes and looked around the room.

The others looked at him.

He tried to get up but Seungcheol held him.

"Hannie don't rush, the medicine effect is still there", said Seungcheol.

Jeonghan looked at the owner of the voice and instantly looked away.

With the help of Seungcheol, he sat on the bed, his back resting on the headboard.

"What happened?", he asked.

"You fainted because of a panic attack", said Seungcheol softly as he offered water to him.

Jeonghan gently took the glass from him, drank three to four sips and handed the glass back to Seungcheol.

"Panic attack?", asked Jeonghan.

"Yeah, you got a Panic attack and then you fainted", said Seungcheol.

"How are you feeling now?", asked Yoongi.

"I am okay now I guess", said Jeonghan.

Jeonghan turned his head towards the other side and saw Seokmin lying there.

"What happened to Seokmin?", asked Jeonghan.

"He also fainted", said Yoongi.

"Where are the others?", he asked.

"Downstairs", said Yoongi.

Jeonghan nodded.

He then looked at Seungcheol who was staring back at him concerned.

He looked away, he didn't have the guts to face Seungcheol right now. He just wanted to go home and lock himself inside his room.

The amount of betrayal he felt was suffocating. How could Joshua do this to him? How can he take his only family away from him just like that? Moreover, how could Seungcheol let it happen?

He didn't feel as angry at Joshua as he felt at Seungcheol. Seungcheol knew everything from the start then why couldn't he tell him the truth? Why did he have to hide it from him? How could he?

If only Seungcheol had told him everything back then.

"I want to go home", announced Jeonghan quietly.

"Hannie you can't go home in this condition, please rest for a while then I'll leave you home", said Seungcheol.

"It's Jeonghan for you and no thanks I can go alone, my legs are working fine", said Jeonghan sternly.

"Hann---- Jeonghan glared at him. "Sorry. Jeonghan quit being stubborn and hear me out, you are not well enough to go by yourself. I'll tell someone else to drop you home, how about that?", asked Seungcheol.

"But----

"Hyung please listen to Seungcheol Hyung", said Chan.

"Fine", said Jeonghan as couldn't say no to Chan.

Seungcheol nodded. He has to cautiously and delicately handle Jeonghan as taking everything all at once, must have been overwhelming for him.

"You need to wait here for a while. I need to know everything first. You are not allowed to go home until and unless I say so", said Yoongi.
