    You manged to get Jungkook in the car and on his way to the hospital. He was panting so hard.

    "DRIVE FASTER, Y/N," he shouted. You gave him a small nod. You didn't want to get a speeding ticket. That was the last thing you needed.

    As you headed into the building, you saw Ji Hye, Jaemin, Taehyung, and Jungkook's mother. She was crying into Ji Hye's shoulder. Ji Hye's eyes were red as well which you could tell she had been crying.

    "Ji Hye? Mom? Where's dad?" Jungkook asked. Ji Hye told him the room number. He nodded and headed for the door way. Just as he made his way to the hall, a familiar man stopped him. Jungkook began protesting. You calmly went up and you realized who it was.

    "Joo Han," you said quietly.
  
    "Y/N?" He turned around. You went up next to Jungkook and held his shoulder.

    "Please, Joo Han. Jungkook's father is in there. He might be dying. He needs to see him," you said impatiently. He quickly nodded and directed you both to Mr. Jeon's recovery room.

    "Dad!" Jungkook rushed next to the bed of his dad. He looked pale, almost as if he lost a lot of blood. His face was badly scarred and his breathing was horse.

    "My son," he manged to cough out. "How are you?" He smiled weakly. Jungkook held his hand.

    "Dad? Are you alright? How is everything? Are you going to be okay?" he asked frantically. You were just standing by the door listening.

    "I'm sorry. I do not think I can make it," he said before coughing violently. You stiffened. "I need to speak with Y/N for moment. Please."

    Jungkook sat up and walked over to your spot. You sat down in the chair and leaned in to listen to Mr. Jeon.

    "Y/N..." he began to whisper. "I need you to promise me... one thing..." You nodded. "Please... Take care of my son. He means so much to me... And I bet he means a lot to you," he coughed out. He took a quick breath before starting again, "He truly loves you with his whole heart... I need to know that you can take care of him for me. It's going to be hard... without his dad." Tears streamed down your eyes. You nodded and whispered, "I promise. Anything for you."

    "Now please... Call in my family," he commanded.

    Everyone that came to see him piled in the tiny room. Ji Hye was the first to speak to him. Then each family took their turn. You waited patiently near the door. He was speaking to Jungkook. You closed your eyes and breathed.

    All of a sudden you heard beep. You knew what had happened. He was gone. Tears build up in your eyes and you let them fall.

    Jungkook stood up from the bed. He was expressionless. He was made of stone. Doctors come storming in. And Jungkook just stood there. Jungkook's relatives where coaxing him to leave. He just stood there.

    You walked up to him and reached for his hand. He followed you obediently.

    The whole car ride home was silent. You knew that Jungkook would break if you tried to speak.
   
    As you both exit the car and enter the house, Jungkook went to the room and locked the door. You quickly follow him. Before you knocked, you pressed an ear to the door. You heard sobbing.

    You sighed and took the key from the hook near the front door of the house. You unlocked the room to see him curled in a corner. He was crying hard.

    Your heart hurt at the sight. You slowly walked up to him.

    "Go away, Y/N," you heard him say. You knew he didn't meant it. And you promised his father you wouldn't take care of him.

    You sat down next to him waiting for him to calm down. Just then, he grabbed you and clung to you tight. He sobbed miserably into your shoulder. You stroked his hair gently.

    When he finally calmed down, you pulled away. You gave him a sad smile before adding, "Jungkook... I think we should get some rest." He nodded and stood up. You went to the bed and laid down. With a big thump, he landed next to you draping his body over yours. You closed your eyes and slept peacefully.

    "Y/N?" a voice called. "Y/N, are you there?" You groaned a little before openning your eyes. Jungkook was hovered over you.

    You looked over at the clock. "Jungkook... It's 1:45am."

    "I-I can't sleep," he admited. You sighed and sat up. You pulled him down on the bed. His head was on your lap. You began stroking his hair. He relaxed a bit and smiled. You placed a kiss on his cheek. He sat up right away. You raised one brow and smirked.
  
    He looked away shyly. You sighed a bit and wrapped your arms around him. He pushed you back so he could face you. He touched his nose to yours before pecking you softly on the cheek.

    "You're okay now... Can I go back to sleep?" you asked. He lifted you up and off the bed and ran down the stairs. He threw you onto the couch.

    "Jerk!" you screamed. Then he tackled you with kisses. You smiled. You made him happy once more.

     Take care of him, Y/N.

    Don't worry... I will.

    You woke up on the couch the next day. You realize that it was the day before the wedding. Even if there was one.

[NEW Message]
Ji Hye: Wedding is still on! Dad would've wanted it. Meet me at the boutique in 1 hour.

    You sat up and went to go find breakfast. You saw Jungkook looking for food in the fridge. You snuck up behind him and gave him a back hug.

    "Good Morning," you said sweetly. He stood up a bit straighter and looked back at you. He smiled and pecked your temple before setting the food he was going to prepare on the counter.

    You both ate your breakfast discussing the wedding tomorrow. Just then you stood up to get ready to head over to see Ji Hye.

    Jungkook grabbed your wrist. "Uh- Y/N... Be back soon, okay?" You smiled slightly.

    You kissed him and said, "You idiot, of course I will."

    You were driving home from the shop. Ji Hye picked out the dress that matched the other maids. You really liked the color.

    As you entered the house, you heard two voices. Was Jungkook with someone?

    You took a peek in the living room. Your eyes widened.

    "Ah! Y/N, your back. I happened to run into someone earlier today. He claims to know you and asked around if anyone saw you..." Jungkook explained.

    When the man turned around, you saw his face. You almost screamed.

    "M-Minhyuk...?"
