✔ JUST ANOTHER CLICHE STORY: JJK

21: Proposal

"Y/N?"

"I could even hear your voice behind me," you continued to sob still burying your face with your trembling hands.

"Y/N seriously..."

"I miss you already I'm hearing things."

"Y/N!!!!" He almost screamed which got you startled and turned your head to your back.

Your eyes widen when you saw Jungkook laying on the bed behind you, totally obscured from view if someone would enter from the door.

You gasped and hadn't even had the strength to speak anymore so you just ran towards him and threw yourself for a tight embrace.

"Ah! Ugh~~ ah! It hurts Y/N," Jungkook complained tapping lightly on your shoulder.

"Oh! Sorry," you said sitting on the edge of the bed sobbing silently.

"Heyyy," he said softly extending his right hand to your cheek so he could wipe your tears away, "I'm here now."

You nodded while sniffling as you held Jungkook's hand to your face feeling his warmth spread through you.

Jungkook's eyebrows furrowed, not because of the pain on his body but because of the pain on his heart.

"I'm sorry," he let out in a whisper, "I couldn't protect again. I'm useless."

You shook your head fast and the tears just streamed even more to your cheeks. Leaning in gently, you placed your head on his chest and you murmured loud enough for him to hear you, "I would be dead by now if it weren't for you."

Jungkook let out a deep breath and you finally felt his hand on your frame as he held you even more close to him.

It was so comfortable whenever your with him.

With the warmth of his embrace, the rythmic beats of his heart, the rise and fall of his chest and the soft kiss he placed on the crown of your head.

You couldn't help but to close your eyes and smile to yourself.

I wish you are mine for real, you thought to yourself.

"Marry me Y/N."

Your eyes darted open and Jungkook could feel your body froze as you fisted on his shirt.

"For real," he added, "Marry me for real."

"Are they okay now?" Aimee asked Jimin whom she followed out of the hospital to the nearest convenience store.

"Hoseok-hyung said they are both awake now," he said not even looking at her.

"Mmmh," she sounded while nodding, "do you think Ju--."

"Will you please stop following me?" Jimin cut her as he turned and gaze on her already shocked face.

"I--... Sorry," was all she managed to say while looking down to her feet.

"EVERYBODY DOWN!" a man with a black hoodie screamed as he pointed a gun up on the ceiling of the store.

Gasps and screams from the only four people inside the store echoed.

The cashier was trembling as she covered her ears and hid under the counter. The middle aged woman on the aisle next to Jimin and Aimee's was already mumbling under her breath as she talked to the 911 operator. And both Jimin and Aimee looked at each other with widen eyes as the danger approached them.

"Stay back," Jimin whispered as she went in front of Aimee and slowly walked towards the open area to see where the man could have gone to.

Aimee could only see Jimin's side profile as he turned to the right and looked straight ahead.
