Jungkook and Jimin sat up as the girl asked for their friend. Jungkook recognized her when she looked over, and she seemed to recognize them as well.

She ran over, her tears falling down her cheeks, "You two are his friends? What happen? Was it our father? Did he do this?"

Jungkook started to shush her to calm her down. He put a hand on her shoulder as he stood up to face her correctly.

"No, a person a school did this," he tells her making her cry harder.

"Why!?"

Jimin stood up as well, "Assholes don't need a reason," he says, making her eyes slightly widen at his vulgar words.

"Would you like to sit down?" Jin asks, offering his seat towards her.

He doesn't know who this girl is personally, but she seems to care a lot for Taehyung. He inferred it was his sister since she said their father instead of his.

She looked older, about two years, and Jin sympathized with her. Jin would be devastated if Jungkook was in the hospital.

A doctor walked over, "Family of Kim Taehyung?"

Everyone looked over and Taehyung's sister replied, "That's me! Is he okay?"

The doctor nodded, "Yes. He stable now. He broke a few ribs, his trachea is bruised from being strangled, and he had to have a lot of stitches, but he's resting now. You can go see him if you would like," he tells them.

They thanked him and walked towards the room he said Taehyung was in. They opened the door and they all seemed to take a second to look over his beat face. There was cuts all over, a few stitched up. The guy must've had a ring on to cause his face to be so cut up.

His sister walked over and took his hand crying softly. Jin sat in corner, feeling bad for Taehyung.

Jimin walked out the room, making Jungkook furrow his eyebrows. He caught Jin's eye, and Jin nodded at him as to say "follow him".

Jungkook walked out and spotted Jimin leaning against the wall. Jimin looked up and sighed, wiping away his watery eyes.

"You okay?"

Jimin nodded, "Yeah," he lifted from the wall, "Are you?"

Jungkook shook his head, "No. not really. Taehyung... is hurt and I think it's my fault," Jungkook admits.

Jimin scoffed and crossed his arms, "What are you talking about? How could this possibly be your fault?"

Jungkook put his hands in the pocket of his jacket and he glanced around the hall they were in, moving out the way for a nurse who was walking by, "Do you remember the first time we went to Taehyung's house? You asked what happen with me and whatever his name is?"

Jimin nodded, "Yeah, everyone said you threatened him."

Jungkook nodded as well, "Yeah well, I told him to stay away from Taehyung because I would kill him or something like that. I think that just made him angrier," Jungkook explained.

Jungkook knew that sometimes he didn't think about what his actions could cause, but he really thought he was doing the right thing. It worked for a while at least.

Jimin took a step closer, "Jungkook, you're so hard on yourself. That doesn't make any sense either. Why would he hurt Taehyung if you scared him? Not everything is your fault. And I know Taehyung would never blame you for this," Jimin said, putting a hand on Jungkook's arm.
