"Pup," Yoongi muttered in her ear as he lightly shook her shoulder, speaking as gently as he could. He wished he didn't have to wake her up, she was so peaceful like this and he knew it'd be the exact opposite once she woke up, but it was pointless holding off the inevitable. Y/N, being the light sleeper she was, woke up nearly the second she heard Yoongi's voice, only letting out a small whine, trying to lazily push his hand away. "Come on, Angel, it's time to get ready," Yoongi said in a soft tone, trying to keep Y/N calm. It took Y/N a few seconds to process his words as she was still a bit groggy before she absentmindedly nodded, dragging herself off the bed. "I'll give you some time to get ready. Just call if you need anything, I'll be down in the living room," Yoongi said, trying to ignore the slight sourness that seeped into Y/N's sweet scent, knowing it was inevitable that she'd be nervous. Once Yoongi was gone, Y/N sluggishly trudged into her closet, picking up her backpack. It was old, tattered, one of the straps had nearly torn off, and had a few holes and loose strings here and there but it was hers and she treasured it as her most prized possession, the one thing she still had left from home, along with the items inside. She slipped her pictures into the front pocket so they wouldn't be wrinkled by the clothes she was about to pack. She quickly pulled out a pair of sweatpants, a loose t-shirt, and one of Yoongi's hoodies, figuring it'd be better to have loose clothes that could easily fit over a cast. She folded up the shirt and sweatpants before carefully placing them in the bag while she wrapped her sweatshirt around her bra and panties before stuffing that into the bag as well. When she went downstairs she was met with Haru, Yoongi, Eunji, and Jeongguk as Seokjin and Taehyung had already left for the hospital to get ready and check on a few of their other patients.

"Ready to go?" Eunji asked once Y/N was in front of the small group, clutching the strap of her so bag tight her knuckles were white.

"As ready as I'll ever be." It was clear Y/N was growing more and more nervous as she fiddled with the strap of her bag more aggressively with every passing second. They led her out of the house as Jeongguk ran ahead of them to bring the car around. Once the car was parked in front of them, Y/N climbed in the passenger seat while Yoongi, Haru, and Eunji climbed in the back. As she settled in her seat, the omega felt the familiar claws of anxiety begin to grab a hold of her, settling deep in her stomach. She was so focused on trying to calm her nerves, she nearly jumped out of her seat when the car roared to life. She quickly grabbed the arm rest, trying to ground herself. Yoongi, who was sitting in the seat behind Y/N, leaned forward so he could grasp her forearm to comfort her, as her hand was too far to reach comfortably. Y/N moved her arm back, intertwining their hands once he was within reach, thankful for the gesture as she tightened her grip on his hand.

It took about ten minutes to drive to the hospital and the ride was mostly silent, not that Y/N was complaining, she didn't really feel like talking at the moment anyway. They finally stopped in front of a long four-story building that Y/N assumed was the hospital. They all filed out of the car as soon as it was parked. Y/N was the last of the five to get out before she found herself staring up at the building that seemed larger and more frightening with every passing second she stood in front of it, looming over her, almost like it could swallow her up. It wasn't until she felt a hand intertwine with hers that she was brought out of her trance. She looked over to her right to see Yoongi staring up at the building as well. He slowly brought their intertwined hands up to his lips, kissing over his mate's knuckles before turning his gaze to meet hers, smiling down at her dazed stare. "You can do this, Angel," he spoke loud enough so only she could hear, reassuring her. Y/N turned her attention back to the building, taking a few calming breaths.

"I can," she spoke semi-confidently, with a small, curt nod. Yoongi pulled her along toward the hospital entrance. Y/N noticed how even though Yoongi's grip on her hand stayed loving and gentle, the rest of his posture hardened. He walked straighter, taller, his shoulders square, eliciting an aura of confidence around him. His expression grew emotionless and stoic, and while his eyes seemed to hold the same warmth, she knew they'd seem cold to anyone else. Why does he have to change in public? The young Omega wondered, not sure why her mate thought he had to act differently in front of others when the Alpha she really knew was amazing. They made it inside the bustling hospital, making a bee-line for the receptionist's desk. All action seemed to almost stop or slow around them as everyone that wasn't in a hurry stopped momentarily to bow to the group or just stare. They made it to the desk, Eunji, Haru, and Jeongguk moving to stand to the side so Yoongi could talk to the receptionist.
