(I don't know too much about laboratory stuff and some medicine things, so sorry if I made mistakes. Also, sorry for the late update.)

"No Taehyung, you can't. You're just his doctor." Seokjin said, while sitting next to Hoseok and Jimin. They just had taken their marrow cells, to donate it to Jungkook then.

But Taehyung wanted to donate as well, he wanted to be sure to be able to help Jungkook in any way possible.

"But Seokjin! Please, let me do it, let me help Jungkook too!" He said, while Jimin was looking at him, Yoongi next to Hoseok, listening too. After a week, they started to meet up and know each other more. They weren't a couple yet, but they were slowly becoming closer. They were taking their time and Taehyung was jealous about that, because he was scared to not being able to save Jungkook. They wouldn't have time anymore to take things slow, if Jungkook passed away. Taehyung shooed away those thoughts.

"You're already helping Jungkook with the other cures. Now let others help him too." Seokjin said again, sounding a little annoyed.

"And remember that you're not the only one caring for Jungkook, okay?" Jimin spoke up, furrowing his eyebrows in an annoyed expression too.

Taehyung crossed his arms, looking away. He knew it, but he just couldn't help wanting Jungkook only for himself.

After about 5 minutes of awkward silence, Seokjin sighed and stood up, walking over Taehyung and placing his hands on his shoulders.
"Tae, listen. I know you love Jungkook, but please, understand that you can't always help everyone, especially in a field you're not familiar with... You are not sure, we are not sure he'll survive. And you know it. Are you ready to accept the fact that yours may not work and it's, for now, our last chance?" He asked, looking into his eyes.

Taehyung stared back into his eyes, nodding. "Yes, I know."

After that, Yoongi took him his marrow cells too (it was one of his principal fields). He put each of their samples into different phials. Then, he sent them to the laboratory, where other doctors had to examine them under microscope, together with Jungkook's marrow cells.

After a few days, the results arrived, while Taehyung was with Jungkook, in his room, with Jimin and Hoseok too. Seokjin walked inside, going closer to them.

"Guys, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry." Seokjin said as he handed the paper into Taehyung's hands. He looked at it and then at the others, his eyes teary. He gave the paper back to Seokjin and stood up.
"Give me a moment, by myself..." He stated, before going out.

He went in he place he talked with Jungkook, under the cherry three. Jungkook's cat was there, sleeping. Maybe he was waiting for Jungkook too.

He looked up to the sky and started to cry. He felt lost. He had tried to cure Jungkook with therapies, but it didn't work. He tried with his own marrow, but it didn't work. He couldn't even make the transplant himself, because it wasn't his field. He felt useless. He knew he didn't have to lose hope, but he was giving up already.

He was so into his own thoughts, that he didn't even hear someone approaching. It was Hoseok. He sat down next to him, surrounding his shoulders with his arm and pulled him closer. Taehyung rested his head on his shoulder and let it go, crying his eyes out. Hoseok was there all the time, listening to him and comforting him.

"Tae, I'm sure it's going to be okay. Please, don't lose hope. If Jungkook saw you like this, he would give up too. But he never did, neither from day one. And you never did either, you have always accomplished what you wanted to do. So, stay strong." He said, taking his hands in his and placing his forehead on his.
