Butterfly Cards |Jeon Jungkook

25: Embrace

Liz Jung

I looked at his pale face

My entire body felt numb... Is he really gone?

I held his cold hand tightly with both hands

My tears fell like a stream

"I love you..." I whispered out

Somehow, Im hoping my warmth reaches him

Everyone started to gather around Jungkook looking very distressed

I kept my head down

Ninika and Jhope tried to make me feel better.. nothing was working

I'll only feel better if he wakes up

"He'll wake up. I know he will. Dont worry Liz." Ninika placed her hand on my stiff shoulder

I couldnt say anything

The lump in my throat kept me from talking

Then something between in my hands moved

My head suddenly raised

Jungkook was twisting and turning

All the hope I had left grew stronger

He'll wake up. I know he will

Jungkook's tears fell as he whispers out "Stop"

He gripped tightly on my hand as his brows furrowed

"Jungkook..." I called out feeling suffocation in my chest

"No.. No.." He repeated alot

I felt myself panic

..

...

His eyes popped opened as he coughed out as if he was choking

"Jungkook!" I yelled out as his entire body falls forwards

I jumped out of my chair and caught him

He was panting like he ran a marathon

But more importantly, I can feel his warmth come back.

"L-Liz" He looked at me with such pained eyes

I couldnt bear it but I have to stay strong

Everyone froze to their places, allowing me to interact with Jungkook further

"Kookie" I started to wipe his sweat away with my hand

"Liz. Youre still here. Im not dreaming again.. right?" His voice shakes

I shook my head to reassure that he's back in reality

His once pale face is now turning to his sunkissed skin

I pulled him in for a tight embrace

I felt him shudder as he wrapped his arms around me

I heard him cry, shattering my heart even more

"Youre ok now." I told him, but mostly myself

"I thought I lost you." He whispered to me, sounding like he was trying to hide himself

He's petrified of something

I hugged him tighter

"You wont... I thought I lost you.. I was scared Jungkook. You were out for hours"

I pulled away and stared deep in his eyes that slowly got their light back

"I never want to dream again"
