Chapter 2

10:42 PM - Seoul Hospital

Chan couldn't turn his head away from the sleeping - no, unconcious - Jisung.
It was pretty clear that the younger had pushed him out of the way.
This is all my fault.
His phone buzzed, startling him. Panic started to fill his mind when he pulled his phone out of his pocket. Another threat?
Caller: Minho
He sighed in relief and answered the call. "Hello Minho."
"Where is he?"
Minho sounded out of breath.
"Hm?" Chan was slightly confused, even though it wasn't that hard to guess.
"JISUNG!! WHERE IS JISUNG??"
Minho didn't sound mad, he sounded panicked.
"He's in Room A291." [A/N: A stands for the building, 2(00) stands for the floor and the 91 for the room.]
"Thanks, I'll be up in a second."
He came maybe five minutes later? Without knocking, he just burst into the room, rushing to Jisungs side.
A single tear ran down his face. "I'm so sorry, Jisung."
Chan could only watch as Minho broke down next to the bed, sobbing uncontrollably.
After a few minutes, the leader got up and kneeled next to Minho, putting a hand on his shoulder. "I should be sorry. This happened because I was careless."
"No, I ..."
"Neither of you carry any fault." Changbin stood in the doorway, observing the happenings of the hospital room. "They said something in the stove broke, some electric stuff or something, at least that's the reason why it exploded."
Chan nodded. "Thank you, Changbin. Does JYP know?"
This time Changbin nodded. "He's going to visit tomorrow. Right now he's busy with the results of the explosion."
"Okay, thanks again." Chan turned to Minho, who had stopped crying. His face was now completely blanc.
"He was so energetic today... and now he's like this... WHAT DID HE DO TO DESERVE THIS??" Minho punched the bed, then held his hand as he winced in pain.
Chan sighed. He really wanted to help, but there was nothing he could do except...
"Hey Minho, how about..."

11:07 PM - Living Room @ Stray Kids Dorm

They had all gathered, waiting for Chan to come home.
When Changbin had returned from the hospital, he only said that Jisung looked bad and that Chan would give them a sort of official update on his condition.
Suddenly, the filming crew arrived.
"What are you doing here?", Woojin asked.
"Well," one of the camera men said, "this is an important moment for Stay Kids."
The cameras were already on.
A lady pulled Felix away, to a chair in front of the otherwise red wall.
"How does the accident make you feel? Do you think Jisung will continue to stay in Stray Kids?"
Felix began to cry. "I'm worried about Jisung. According to Changbin hyung, his eyes are hurt the most. But Jisung needs his eyes..." He couldn't continue, he was so scared and worried, the tears wouldn't stop.
"Oi!!", Woojin yelled, "leave him alone!! This is not something you should be filming!! Leave!!" Seungmin ran over to Felix, seating him on the sofa, and the camera team didn't notice, because they were too busy staring at the oldest.
"What?"
"You heard him," Changbin said. "Give us some private time."
"Yeah, but...", the lady that had pulled Felix away objected.
"LEAVE!!", Hyunjin yelled.
Without another word, the team left.

01:27 AM - Living Room @ Stray Kids Dorm

Most of the members were half asleep when Chan opened the door and yelled: "We're home!!"
Hyunjin got up to greet him, but then... "Why is Minho here? Not that I have a problem with it, it's just-"
"I don't want him to stay at his dorm, because I thought he needs us right now," Chan interrupted.
Hyunjin nodded.
"How is he?", Felix asked, his face a mask of worry.
Chan sighed. "He's burnt. Everywhere, but especially his eyes. That's it."
Minho began to cry again.

02:41 AM - BinJinJeongSung Room

Jeongin couldn't sleep.
He hated the thought of Jisung being alone in his hospital bed, and he hated even more that he couldn't do anything.
Sighing, he decided to go to the living room, so he took his phone and left.
The door to their living room creaked a little when the maknae opened it.
Once inside, he saw Minho sleeping on the couch.
What's he doing here? I thought he slept in the hyung room?
Not wanting to wake the boy up, Jeongin turned to leave, but got stopped by Minho.
"Hey, Jeonginie. Can I talk to you for a second?"
He sounded sleepy.
Jeongin nodded, sitting down on the sofa as Minho sat up. He noticed that his hyung was wearing one of Jisungs oversized hoodies that he liked to wear around the dorms.
"Are you worried about Jisung?", Minho asked.
Tears formed in the eyes of the younger, but he blinked them away and put on a smile. "Of course, hyung."
"Just as I thought," Minho muttered.
"Huh?"
"Jisung told me you cry yourself to sleep at night." Minhos gaze seemed to be burning holes into Jeongin.
"Really?" The latter laughed awkwardly. "He must be imagining things. I'm fine, hyung!!"
The smile was beginning to hurt his face.
"Jeongin-ah," Minho said, his voice suddenly soft, "it's not a crime to cry. If you feel like crying, please do. I know you don't want to make your hyungs worried, but you make us more worried when you don't cry."
Suddenly it all came over Jeongin like a wave, choking him. He began to sob, unable to speak.
Minho wrapped his arms around him, pulling him close to his chest.
He smelled like Jisung, cinnamon and sweat (not the yukky, disgusting kind, but the sweet smell of hard work), and like Minho does, vanilla and boys deodorant.
They sat in silence, the only thing that could be heard were Jeongins sobs, which softly faded away and were replaced by Jeongins soft snores.
Minho smiled at the younger, hoping that he helped him.

3:11 AM - Hyung Room

Chans phone buzzed.
