SILENT FLAMES OF HEALING || TAEHYUNG FF ||

part 17

Taehyung burst into the hospital room, panic written all over his face as he laid Y/n on the bed. His heart was racing, pounding so loudly he could barely hear anything else. His mind was a whirlwind of fear and desperation, his eyes never leaving Y/n
"Please, do something!" he shouted, his voice cracking with a mixture of anger and fear. "She’s in so much pain, please!"The doctor quickly took her into the examination room and Taehyung anxiously waited outside, his mind  racing with thoughts of what could be wrong.Minutes dragged by each felt like an hour. Taehyung felt like he was suffocating in the uncertainty. Finally, the doctor approached him, a look of deep concern on her face.
"Mr. Kim, Y/n's condition is more complicated than we initially thought," the doctor began, her tone gentle yet firm. "She has endometriosis, a condition that can cause severe pelvic pain and other complications.It’s not uncommon for this condition to be linked to a history of abuse...".Taehyung felt as if the ground had been pulled out from under him. His eyes widened, and he gripped the edge of the bed so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "Abuse? What... what do you mean? Is she... is she going to be okay?" he asked, his voice breaking, tears already starting to blur his vision.The doctor hesitated, clearly trying to find the right words. "Her condition has complicated things, especially because...,The doctor took a deep breath before continuing,"And there's something else," she continued. "Y/n is pregnant."

Taehyung's breath caught in his throat.His hand trembled as he reached out to steady himself against the bed. "Pregnant?" he whispered, disbelief and shock mingling in his voice.The doctor nodded, her expression gentle yet firm. "Yes, but her pregnancy is at risk due to her endometriosis. It’s a miracle that she conceived at all.In her condition, this pregnancy will require very close monitoring and care. It's a high-risk situation, and any complications could be life-threatening, both for her and the baby."

Taehyung’s heart felt like it was being torn apart. Joy at the news of their baby was overshadowed by the fear that he could lose both Y/n and their child. Tears spilled down his cheeks, and he could no longer hold back the sobs that wracked his body. He collapsed into a nearby chair, burying his face in his hands."Why didn’t she tell me?" he choked out, his voice thick with emotion. "Why didn’t she say anything about the abuse... about what she’s been through?"The doctor placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. "Sometimes, people keep these things buried deep inside, especially when they’ve been hurt by someone they trusted."Taehyung wiped his eyes, forcing himself to calm down, even though his heart was breaking. He had to be strong for Y/n, for their baby. "Can I see her?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.The doctor nodded. "Yes, but she’s still unconscious. She needs rest, and you need to be strong for her when she wakes up."
Taehyung entered the room quietly, his heart heavy with worry and guilt. He sat beside Y/n, taking her hand in his. Her face was pale, and she looked so fragile lying there. Tears welled up in his eyes again as he whispered, "Why didn’t you tell me, Y/n? Why did you go through all of this alone?"

Hours later, when Y/n finally stirred, Taehyung was by her side, holding her hand tightly. When her eyes fluttered open, she saw the raw pain in his eyes, and she knew he had found out.

"Taehyung..." she whispered, her voice weak.

Taehyung leaned closer, his voice trembling as he asked, "Who did this to you, Y/n? Who hurt you so badly?"

Y/n's eyes filled with tears as she looked away, unable to meet his gaze. "It was... my father," she admitted, her voice barely audible.

Taehyung’s world tilted. His breath hitched, and fury surged through him like wildfire. He stood up abruptly, his fists clenched as anger and betrayal consumed him. "I’ll kill him," he growled, turning toward the door. "I’ll make him pay for what he did to you."

"No, Taehyung!" Y/n cried, her voice filled with fear and desperation. She reached out, grabbing his arm with all the strength she could muster. "You promised... you promised me that you wouldn’t leave me. Please, don’t go."

Taehyung stopped, his heart breaking at the sight of her tears. He turned back to her, seeing the fear in her eyes. Slowly, he knelt beside her, pulling her into his arms as he wept with her. "I’m so sorry, Y/n. I’m so, so sorry. I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere. I promise."
Taehyung held Y/n close, his tears soaking into her hair as he whispered apologies and promises over and over. He could feel her trembling against him, and it broke his heart even more. How could he have missed the signs? How could he not have known the pain she carried all these years?

Y/n clung to him, her tears flowing freely now. She had never wanted to burden him with her past, with the scars that still haunted her. But now that everything was out in the open, she felt a strange mix of relief and fear After a while, Taehyung pulled back slightly, cupping Y/n's face in his hands. "We’re going to get through this together, okay? I won’t let anything happen to you or our baby."

Y/n’s eyes widened as she processed his words. "Our... baby?" she repeated, her voice shaky.

Taehyung nodded, a small, bittersweet smile tugging at his lips. "The doctor told me. You’re pregnant, Y/n. We’re going to have a baby."

A mix of emotions washed over Y/n—joy, fear, disbelief. She had always wanted to be a mother, but she never thought it would be possible with her condition. And now, hearing it from Taehyung, knowing they were going to have a child together, filled her with a hope she hadn’t felt in a long time.

But that hope was tinged with fear. "Taehyung... what if something happens? What if I can’t..." She couldn’t finish the sentence, the fear choking her.

Taehyung shook his head, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. "Don’t think like that, Y/n. We’re going to do everything we can to make sure you and our baby are safe. I’ll be with you every step of the way."

Just then, the doctor walked in, her expression serious but kind. "I’m glad you’re awake, Y/n. There’s something we need to discuss."

Taehyung’s grip on Y/n tightened as the doctor explained the risks of her pregnancy due to endometriosis. "It’s a delicate situation," she said gently. "The fact that you’ve conceived is remarkable, but it also means we have to be very careful moving forward. You’ll need close monitoring, and there are no guarantees... but we’ll do everything we can."

Y/n listened quietly, her heart pounding. She knew the risks, knew how dangerous this could be for both her and the baby. But she also knew she couldn’t give up. She couldn’t let fear control her. Not now.

"I want to try," Y/n said softly, her voice filled with determination. "I want to do whatever it takes to keep our baby safe."

Taehyung looked at her, his heart swelling with pride and love. He knew how much strength it took for her to say that, and he admired her more than ever. "We’ll do this together," he said, his voice firm. "We’ll get through this, Y/n. I promise."

The doctor nodded, reassured by Y/n’s resolve. "We’ll make sure you get the best care possible. But remember, it’s important to take things one day at a time. Focus on staying healthy and keeping stress to a minimum. You have a strong support system, and that will make a big difference."

As the doctor left the room, Taehyung turned back to Y/n, his heart still heavy with the weight of the situation but also filled with a new sense of purpose. He would do everything in his power to protect Y/n and their baby. He wouldn’t let anything or anyone hurt them again.

He kissed Y/n’s hand, holding it against his heart. "We’ll be okay," he whispered. "We have to believe that."
