Non-bulletproof Boyscouts

Moon

Namjoon's pov

I couldn't believe it. Even though I knew it was true. I buried my head in my hands to hide my tears. The look on Luna's face had broken my heart.

"Namjoon-ah... don't blame yourself too much..." Jin-hyung tried to comfort me.

"I gave him the ticket... I literally took his ticket out of his hand to give him mine!"

"We all agreed on that didn't we?" everyone was on the verge of tears.

Taehyung was still sitting where he sank to the ground after we stopped him from going after Luna.

"If only I hadn't lost my voice back then..." Taehyung whispered.

We all looked at him. He had a weird look in his eyes.

"Taehyung-ah... what are you talking about?" Jin-hyung asked.

Taehyung looked up at him and asked: "You don't remember?"

Five months ago.

Taehyung's pov.

I was getting tired. The concert was almost over, maybe for the best.

My voice wasn't in the best condition when we started this concert. I had had problems with it the night before as well.

"All my ladies! Put your hands up!"

I hoped I would make it to the end. One more line to go.

"Now scream!"

The song ended and I ran up to J-Hope to ask if he could cover some parts for me. But RM came to me first. "How's your voice?" he asked. I wanted to say I was about to ask for help. I opened my mouth to speak...

Namjoon's pov

I ran up to V, he had told me he was worried about his voice and it was my task as the leader to look after my team.

"How's your voice?"

He opened his mouth, moved his lips but no sound came out. Oh no...

I frowned, "Taehyung-ah... Speak!"

He cleared his throat and said: "I'm fine hyung. I was about to ask Hobi-hyung to cover some parts for me."

I nodded and let him trough. We were all tired, the schedule didn't leave much room for breaks. I heard one of our staff members say that if we didn't catch a break any time soon we'd break ourselves.

We ended the concert without a hitch. We went to our dorm and went straight to bed.

The next day Jimin and I found Taehyung in his room. Tears streaming down his face.

I had a bad feeling about this when Jimin asked: "Taehyung-ah what's wrong?"

He looked up at us with a pained expression, opened his mouth but no sound came out...

Taehyung went to the doctor with Jimin. I told Bang PD-nim. He told me to wait for the doctor's judgement, so I did...

The doctor said he would regain his voice in time but could not tell us when nor what caused it.

They sent him to his hometown and told the world there was something going on in his family.

Our lovely fans immediately wished him and his family the best.

After about two weeks later he came back. He had regained his voice and was excited to join us on stage again.

Unfortunately, he lost it halfway through the concert and the manager decided he'd have to playback his way out of this. A few weeks passed and he once again regained his voice. But when we told him to sing, he refused, saying he wanted to give his voice more rest before using it again. He hasn't sung since.

Present

Jin's pov

I stared at Taehyung-hyung in disbelief.

"I knew something was off... but play backing."

He hung his head in shame.

"I'm not proud of it... but PD-nim said it was better to continue like that. For everyone. And I didn't want to let ARMY down so I worked harder with my dance." he said.

"Hang on, Jin-hyung... You didn't know this?" Yoongi asked.

I shook my head; "First time I hear about all this..."

Yoongi looked at Namjoon.

"He was in the hospital back then..." Namjoon said.

Suddenly Jimin jumped up and said: "Guys I need some time to think." as he left the living room.

Jungkook followed him.

"I think we all do." said Namjoon as he left for his studio. Yoongi and Hoseok followed him. Taehyung went to his bedroom and I was left alone. I stood up and positioned myself in front of the window that looked out on the street.

"We have to tell her parents..." I said as I heard someone behind me.

Hoseok nodded as he came to stand next to me. "Let's do that tomorrow... I don't think any of us can handle that right now..."

Yoongi's pov

I entered my studio, before I closed the door I could hear Hoseok and Namjoon talking. One of them went back upstairs. I sighed and stared at the keyboard on my desk.

I could see her slamming that cover shut as if it happened right in front of me.

She is the sister your idol wanted to be with so much...

Tears welled up in my eyes. I straightened my back and wiped them away. I sat down at my desk after taking a deep breath and put my fingers on the keys. They started moving on the keys. I managed to finish the first song I had written in ages since my writers' block. I had had some inspiration before, but that didn't work out that good. After hours of writing I stared at the music sheet in front of me.

"I did it..." I whispered.

"What are you going to name it?"

I turned around to see Namjoon leaning against the wall.

I looked back at the sheet and said: "Moon."
