What If... | BTS Jungkook Fanfic

Chapter 3

So she is here

Her voice was like bliss to Jungkook, But her voice said broke his heart.

"Who's this?" Her voice echoed inside of Jungkook's head.

"Oh, Hey Taeji! Wassup!?" Her name pained him.

She goes around hugging all the boys, hugging Namjoon the longest.

She was smiling. Her smiles were something that Jungkook longed to see for the last 8 months.

"Hi, I'm Jungkook." Jungkook stuck out his hand for her to shake it.

"Well hello there Jungkook! I'm Taeji!" She cups her hand around Jungkook's shaking it. Jungkook held back the tears as her touch was the thing Jungkook missed most.

He smiled back to hide the person breaking inside.

"Well I gotta go guys! See you around!" She lets go of Jungkook's hand and runs towards the roof door as a bell rings.

"She'll come around to remembering one of us some day." Hoseok sighed

Jungkook bites his lip and takes a few deep breaths still trying to hold back his tears. He just wanted to change the topic, to get his mind off the fact that Taeji doesn't remember him.

"Ok last question... Why are there still bells?? I would have thought one hundred years later they would advance in technology." Jungkook just wanted to get away from the topic of Taeji.

"United Nations thought that people are getting to many health issues from the technology you had back then, so they slowed it down and made things that would benefit health. Making this both easier and healthier. So not much has changed in the last hundred years, just advances in diseases. Especially mental health. No more suicide and homicide." Jimin explains.

No more suicide and homicide.

So what if we lived more than one hundred years later.

She wouldn't have died. That man wouldn't have come up on the roof and killed himself and Taeji.

Jungkook lost his balance clutching the side of his head as pounding started hitting against his skull.

"You alright there buddy?" Seokjin questioned.

"Yeah... I'm fine." And with that reply, Jungkook fell to the ground, unconscious.

"He'll be fine, he just needs a bit of rest." The nurse informed Namjoon.

"Okay. Thankyou so much nurse EunBi." He shakes her hand.

"No problem, the doctor will be in just to check on concussion signs every once and a while." Nurse EunBi grabbed her clipboard, smiled and exited the room.

Namjoon turns to Jungkook who is sitting in a hospital bed. "She said you're going to be fine. You probably just need to stay for a bit so they can check your concussion."

Jungkook nodded.

"Do they know why he fainted?" Yoonji says as he sits back on Jungkook's hospital bed.

"They just said that it was a lack of oxygen in the brain." Namjoon crosses his arms and leans his back on the wall next to the bed.

There was a moment of silence between them.

The silence put Jungkook into a deep sleep as he longed for rest.

"Well! I don't know about you, but I'm hungry!" Hoseok jumps up from the seat he sat in.

"Yeah same!" Jimin jumps up as well patting Hoseok on the shoulder.

"You guys go. I'm gonna stay." Namjoon sits where Hoseok sat before and lays back in the chair.

"Alright buddy!" And with that, they all left.

Alone in the room with Jungkook, Namjoon stares at Jungkook, studying how much he's grown since they were living in the same world as him. Namjoon had only seen Jungkook from a far. Now he was back with them.

Namjoon was like a father to Jungkook. Leaving alone for so long was something Namjoon regretted. Namjoon regretted a lot of things. Some more than others.

There was one thing Namjoon regretted most, and now that Jungkook was here, he needed to deal with it before he finds out about it.

If he were to find out, he would never forgive me...

Namjoon tried to hold back a tear that was forming in his eyes but he gave in, letting it fall down his cheek.

I'm so sorry Jungkook...

Jungkook battered his eyes open to a teary eyed Namjoon.

"Bruh, you alright?" Jungkook rubbed his eyes.

"What?!" Namjoon wiped his tears away in a hurry and put on a brave face." Um... Just a bit of dust!"

The silence between them grew so much that you could hear a pin drop.

"Nice to see you're awake." The doctor walks in pushing up his glasses.

A sudden unbearable pain strikes Jungkook in his left hip making him clutch his hip and grunt in pain.

Namjoon stands up quickly looking at the doctor. A familiar face. Namjoon could see the Jungkook's tattoo glow white. Only he knew what this meant.

The pain faded away from Jungkook's hip and he took an exhale of relief.

Jungkook looked up at the concerned young doctor whose face was of someone's he remembered.

You...

"He remembers you." A voice in Jungkook's head rang to what he recognised as Namjoon's.

"Since when could you talk to me telepathically?" Jungkook glared at Namjoon who hasn't verbally spoken a word.

"Just one of the extra powers you gain when three people remember you... But as I was saying, he remembers you." Namjoon's voice echoed in Jungkook's head.

How?

A/N: apologies for taking so long to get this chapter out and that this chapter isn't as good but I've really been so busy as school takes precedence. I hope I'll be able to update a bit for frequently.
