Your POV:

"So he hit you and you only hurt your head?," sunbae said incredulously.
"You sound disappointed on my lack of injuries," i couldn't keep the hurt out of my voice.
He was taken aback. "Hey i didnt mean it like that. I was merely asking if you're sure you got hit by a car..."
"Well my mental faculties aren't impaired if that's what you mean."
"Okay okay. Dont kill me. I'm sorry. I'm just worried about you."

I was saved giving "it's okay " when Yoona came in with coke. Aahhh thats my bestie. Always coming to my rescue.

She plumped down and handed me the can. "Did you know that the bighit staff member is in this hospital too?"
I spat the mouthful I'd just taken.
"Yah!!," yoona exclaimed.
"Sorry...," i wiped my mouth.
She looked scandalized as she carried on. "Its so weird.."
My heart did a painful cartwheel.
"What is?"
"Well this attack, and bighit not talking... and on top of it all, you're in the same hospital as her," she looked around. "Have you seen her? Maybe we can get to meet bts if we hang around here?"
I made a nervous sound that was supposed to be a laugh. Damn. How do i get her off this topic?

"You know i dont think they'll meet a staff member here when the media knows she's here," i said matter of factly. Then, changing gears, "I'll be back to school tomorrow. Has there been much that i missed?"
She got excited. "I almost forgot! Bts came to our school! Well jungkook's manager and all.. but it was pretty intense."

"What? Why?"

"I guess they thought the attacker was from the school... i dont even know how they got to that conclusion given the entire school fawns over them," she said, thinking hard.

I better tell jungkook it wasn't someone from school...

I was listening to spring day and humming with my eyes closed when jungkook came in. I jumped when he took the earplug out.
He looked amused and i felt the familiar heat in my face. Althought it was partly because he heard my ugly humming.
"How are you?"
Oh. Jungkook wants to know if I'm fine. Am i fine? No I'm not because jungfuckingkook is asking if I'm fine!!!

I cleared my throat which had suddenly gone dry. "Y-yeah. Better."
"Your friends sure take a lot of your time."

Wait.. what? Omo he figured out yoona snooping around for the the staff!!

"Um.. she was just getting me stuff and all.. she's just worried..," i said hoping he'd not go into thinking badly about her.
He smiled. My heart did a cartwheel again. This time a pleasant one.
"I meant that they leave no time for me."

Oh. OOOHHHHH. OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH

"Youre blushing again. Its really cute you know. "
Shiiiiit. I felt a timer go off in my face
He chuckled and said, "when do get discharged?"
"Today."
"And... back on your job?"
Right. I dont even know how much salary I've lost as i lay in the hospital so yeah. Back to duty.
I nodded.
He looked in good spirits. I suddenly remembered what yoona had told me and said, "you know.. the attacker isn't from our school. Dont worry about school."
Hr raised an eyebrow. "I didnt go through this because we're scared the attacker would be at school."
Oh.
"Then?"
"We made sure no one from school was there at the scene... and no one saw you."

Oh. I felt embarrassed for some reason.

The words were out before i realized, "do you think its safer for you if i quit?"

There was an abrupt change of expressions on his face as he stood up. "I didnt think you'd be scared of hanging around us after what happened" his voice was clipped.

Oh crap he misunderstood.

"No!! Thats not what i meant.. i just meant that if it's started to get hard to hide me from media and if somebody saw me..," i trailed off as his expression softened.
"You should REALLY start to worry about yourself... and not me. Us, i mean," he amended quickly.

"It's my job..."
"As a friend?"
Okay he makes my heart jump and this is very.. embarrassing.
He laughed at my expression and said, "get changed. I'll drop you off."

"What if we're seen?"
"Worrying again?," he smirked.
Oh alright alright. I looked down to hide my red as ever face.

"See ya in five."

Jungkooks POV:

I walked in after a while and she was tying her laces. Her bangs fell over her eyes as she crouched down.

She looked so damn cute concentrating. And then i saw the bandage on the side of her head and i felt anger rise up in my chest again. I'll have the fucker who did this.

And she stood up. She was startled to see me there but suddenly she fell back.

I ran for her and grabbed her with my hand on the small of her back. She looked disoriented... and now, very red.

She quickly pulled away without allowing me to study her face.

"Head rush... and numb legs," she said awkwardly as she pretended to straighten her shirt.

I frowned. "You should see the doctor. Maybe it's because of the the injury?" My heart sank at the thought.

She shook her head. "I've just been in bed for 3 days so my legs kind of died."

I studied her for a moment and realized she was telling the truth and then held her hand. My own heart made a high leap so i didnt realize when she jumped.

"We need to stride fast through the hospital to avoid eyes. So i need you close." I explained and she nodded feverishly, worried again.

I started for the door, with her behind me and her small hand in mine.

She was frantically looking around and was on her edge. Her hand was defensively made into a fist and i vaguely remember her look before she protected me that day.

And it hit me.

She was ready to protect me. Again. And the feeling was endearing.
