I Will Protect You

Chapter 8: I'm sorry Baek

Baekhyun's POV:

"I'm sorry, but we need to watch her tomorrow. She's okay the knife wound missed her organs by a few inches, but since she lost a lot of blood she can't leave right away." I let out a sigh of relief.

"Can I go see her?"

"You can, but she will be asleep," she said to me. I nodded my head and found her room. I walked in watching her sleep. She was really pale still. I sat by her side and held her hand in mine. She looks really peaceful and pretty, but I wonder why she chose to walk this path. I set my head on our hands and drifted to sleep.

I woke up and noticed Taeyeon wasn't on the bed. I stood up right away and ran towards the door. I opened it and saw Taeyeon. She looked up at me.

"Good morning~" she said to me with a smile. Her face gained a bit more color. I pulled her into the room and into a hug.

"Don't ever do that again! You scared me half way to death when I saw you!" I yelled at her tightening the hug. She was quiet for a few moments. I broke the hug and put both of my hands on her shoulders.

"Baekhyun... I won't do it again," she said looking at my eyes softly.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you. I had no right to," I said pulling her into another hug.

"It's okay." We decided to go on a walk outside the hospital. When we got back to the room I saw my aunt.

"Aunt, when can she leave the hospital?" I asked her.

"She seems to be fine, so she can be discharged later today." I smiled at Taeyeon, but she didn't respond.

"Taeyeon," I said gently shaking her.

"Y-yes?" she said turning to me with shock in her eyes.

"Are you okay?" I asked looking at her eyes. She nodded her head yes and smiled. My aunt left the room, and Taeyeon sat on her bed. I got up and filled a cup of water from a pitcher for Taeyeon.

"Baekhyun?" I heard Taeyeon say.

"Hm?" I asked turning towards her.

"I-I... Can I telling you something?" she asked with her voice shaky. Walked over to her and sat next to her. I saw tears fill her eyes, and start to flow.

"Tangoo, don't cry," I said softly while rubbing her back.

"My mother died, a-and she used to call me Tangoo a-also. I didn't h-help her. I-it was my f-fault she died. I-I just w-watched her," she said crying, "T-today is when s-she died."

"I'm sorry." I continued to rub her back as she cried. I felt her calm down and fall asleep. I laid her down in her bed and watched her sleep. I saw a tear escape from her eye. I wiped it and gave her a small kiss on her forehead. Then I waited for her to wake up.

Taeyeon's POV:

I woke up and Baekhyun was watching me.

"How long have I been asleep?" I asked Baekhyun.

"For quite a few hours. It's five in the afternoon. Are you ready to go back to my house?" he said to me.

"Can we go to a park?" I asked smiling. He nodded and we went down to check out. As we walked to Baekhyun's car he started to crack some jokes. I laughed at his jokes and he laughed also. This made it harder for me to tell him. We arrived at the park and sat under a willow tree. I watched Baekhyun's curious eyes as they looked around the surroundings.

"Why did you want to come here?" he asked me.

"Baekhyun... I have something to tell you.," I said hesitantly. He looked at my eyes.
