"You should know"
___________________________

Taehyung finally made it to the cliff and he did bring the police with him. Jungkook, Jimin, Namjoon, and Yoongi were on their way as well. He didn't know Namjoon and Yoongi very well but he knew that they were Hoseok's friends and they deserved to know what was going on. He also contacted Hoseok's parents.

Without hesitation, he jumped down and went to go find him. "Young man! You can't go down there!" One of the officers yelled but it was too late. Taehyung was already underwater searching for Hoseok. The ocean floor was deep but not that deep from where they were. He swam further out to try and see if he saw him.

Nothing.

He refused to give up on him so easily. He swam further down and looked. He saw a sight that he wished he could erase from his memory. There was Hoseok, yellow backpack on his back. His whole body was limp and he definitely was not breathing.

Taehyung quickly swam over to him and took the bag off of his back. He then began swimming upwards to the surface of the water. Once he made it there he caught his breath and made his way to the shore and saw that everyone was there. Yoongi was terrified. He hid behind Namjoon and was tearing up. Jungkook clung onto Miran while she hid her face in the crook of his neck. She didn't even want to look. Jimin was there bawling and so was... Jo.

She immediately went over to Taehyung and checked on Hoseok. "He's not breathing" Taehyung told her. "Um, CPR. Do any of you know CPR?" One of the officers raised their hand. "I'll-"

"Let me do it. I watched videos online and it doesn't seem that hard." Taehyung opened Hoseok's mouth and began blowing into it. He pushed down on his chest and blew into his mouth again. He kept on repeating the process and nothing was happening. He was starting to cry more than he already was. Reality began to hit him. He was losing Hoseok.

"Come on Hoseok! Wake up!" He yelled. He continued the CPR process and he still wouldn't get any response. "You can't do this to me..." he sobbed. He kept trying and still, nothing happened. Hoseok wasn't moving or anything. "Use more force" Jo suggested. Taehyung began waving his arms around frantically.

"I don't want to hurt him!"

"How much more hurt can he be?" Jo said. Taehyung sighed and began using more force. He blew more air into his mouth and pushed down harder on his chest. "Come on.." He tried and tried and tried and he finally got something. Hoseok's breathing was faint but he could still hear it. Taehyung did it one more time and Hoseok sat up. He coughed out a lot of water before collapsing back onto the sand.

Everyone rushed over to him and hovered over him. Hoseok's vision was a bit blurry but he still knew who his friends were. Taehyung was the first one he saw and he frowned. He knew that he was disappointed in him. His eyes were only opened at little but the sun still stung his eyes. "Why did you save me?" He asked in a low tone. Taehyung grabbed his hand. "I saved you because I-"

At that very moment, the ambulance came. They hurried over to Hoseok and picked him up. They then put him on a stretcher and put him into the ambulance car which forced Taehyung to let go of his hand. When Hoseok was gone he looked at Jo and gave her a small smile.

"Thank you for everything"

She looked at him oddly. "What did I do?" She asked. "You always look out for Hoseok. I mean, you always do things in his favor. You broke up with me and everything just for him. Why is that?" Taehyung asked. Jo showed him her beautiful smile and put a hand on his shoulder. "It's because if two people love each other, they deserve to be together no matter what. That's that."
