Try Again | NCT Yuta

004

Seulgi's POV

We ate dinner quickly and didn't hang around for long afterwards to chat.

Yuta suggested he get me home as it was getting late and I didn't know what to say so I just agreed.

The silence in the car is a mixture of comfortable and awkward. Yuta doesn't seem to mind, as though he has adjusted to it by now.

Yet I mind.

I want to talk to him but I have no words to say.

The silence is soon interrupted by my phone as I receive a notification. I pull it out of my bag and am surprised to see several messages from Jungwoo.

Jungwoo
You need to come to the hospital.

Jungwoo
Hyeji has been in an accident.

Jungwoo
Bring Yuta.

"Oh my god" I exclaim under my breath. Yuta turns his head briefly to see me looking at the messages.

"What's wrong?" He asks. My hands begin to tremble and I text Jungwoo, asking which hospital.

"Yuta turn around" My voice wavers slightly.

"Why?" He questions, confused at my sudden urge to drive in the opposite direction.

"We have to go to the hospital. Hyeji has been in an accident."

"What?" The looks of worry which instantly covers his features at the mention of her being hurt breaks my heart.

He is quick to do a U turn and speeds down the highway, towards the hospital.

Hyeji's POV

"Yuta and Seulgi are on their way" Jungwoo tells me calmly. I am seated on the hospital bed, my face scrunched up in pain.

I passed out in the car wreck then woke in the hospital. They tried to get me to stay laying down but I refused.

My head keeps spinning and god, it hurts.

They gave me pain killers about twenty minutes ago. They should start taking effect any minute.

"I really think you should lay back" Jungwoo speaks softly and I shake my head as I gently raise my hand to cover the bandage which has been used to cover the cut on my forehead.

"Where's Jaehyun?" I ask him and he smiles tightly.

"He is in the room next door. He broke his collar bone but he should be fine. He will stay overnight."

I have a mild concussion but other then that I just have a few cuts and bruises.

The driver in the other car was unharmed. He didn't hang around to get Jaehyun's insurance details. After passing his check up with the hospital he left. Apparently he said he had enough money to fix his own car.

I'm glad that he won't cause any trouble for Jaehyun. It was an accident.

"Where is she?" I suddenly hear an all too familiar voice ask the receptionist. "Kim Hyeji. She was in an accident."

The room I'm in is just next to the foyer of the emergency ward. Jungwoo seems to also know who it is as he just remains seated beside the bed.

I push myself off the bed and stand on the floor. Slowly O walk out of the room and peer around the corner to see Yuta and Seulgi standing by the receptionist.

"Yuta" I call his name and his head snaps in my direction. His face is so pale. Was he that worried?

He rushes over to me and immediately pulls me into his strong embrace. He holds the back of my head as I just have my hands placed on his chest gently.
