the walls were white already, the bright lights didn't help chan's eyes. jisung had called the older immediately when jeongin fainted, not sure what to do. jisung had known that jeongin's parents were busy with work and couldn't pick up the phone, either, so he had to make the decision.

the ticking of the clock did nothing to help jisung's racing mind. he sat anxiously next to jeongin's hospital bed, awaiting the doctor who would tell him the younger's condition. chan sat across from jisung, and somehow, looked way more worried than him, too. chan was shaking, all-around shaking. he held jeongin's hand, giving it a tight squeeze of hope.

there was two small knocks on the door, then it slowly opened. both of the concious boys snapped their heads to the entrance, ready for the news.

"okay, um," the doctor looked confused, as there were only two teenage boys and no adults in the room with jeongin. "basically jeongin has an injury on his spleen caused by blunt force but-"

jisung was already crying, chan was staring at jisung like he was crazy, and jeongin was stirring in his sleep.

"it'll be fine, he just needs a basic surgery and some rest and all will be good. it's super  common, there is no chance that he will die during the process." the doctor calmly stated, jisung instantly stopped crying.

"wait- so he ain't gonna die?" jisung questioned, the doctor just shook his head and left. chan didn't blame him, jisung was a lot to handle.

jeongin stirred from his sleep, groggily peeling his eyes open. he winced as he was now adjusting to the pain he felt.

"i want hyungie," he mindlessly murmured, taking in his surroundings. "oh, hey, 'sung. what's up?" jeongin giggled, shyly waving.

"damnit, jeongin. i thought you were gonna die or something. now, tell me what happened." jeongin shrugged, a frown inevitably tugging at his lips.

"really? 'you don't know?'" jisung furrowed his eyebrows in frustration. why wouldn't jeongin just tell him what happened?

"i just fell, you know how i'm dumb.." jeongin awkwardly chuckled and shrugged once again.

chan and jisung both gave jeongin suspicious looks, giving up and deciding to ask him later.

the next day, jeongin had went through surgery already. jisung and chan showed up when he was packing up to go home with his parents, jeongin immediately smiling at the two.

"hyungie! 'sungie! hi!" he beamed, waddling over to them in a loose t-shirt and sweatpants. jeongin hugged both of them, which he shouldn't be doing but oh well, and looked at the ground.

"i'm all better! nothing serious really, they just said i should rest for two weeks." jeongin commented. his mother looked upset, as she had no idea how he got injured.

she went up to jisung and whispered into his ear, "how did this happen?"

jisung just shrugged and told her about how jeongin wouldn't tell them. she frowned and looked at the clock, which read 4:12.

"you two boys should hurry on home," jeongin's mother commented, motioning towards the hospital doors as they stepped out of jeongin's room.

"but mom," jeongin whined, dragging on the last syllable. "i want them to come over!" he exclaimed, walking over to the two and grabbing one of their hands with both of his own.

jeongin's father was in the corner drinking some coke, confused on what was going on in front of him. he decided to just tune it out and let his wife deal with it from now on.

"can they even come over?" she asked, jeongin immediately giving puppy-dog eyes to the two and pouting.

of course, neither of them could resist, and nodded. to be honest, they probably would've agreed anyway.

all five of them piled into jeongin's mother's car, jeongin ending up in the middle seat. the hospital was about a ten minute drive from jeongin's house, so the youngest got comfortable and leaned into chan.

when they arrived at jeongin's house, the three boys took their shoes off and ran upstairs. chan being chan, though, respectfully thanked jeongin's mom for letting them come over. she just nodded and waved it off, thanking him for taking care of her son.
