As Jungkook waited, he got a call again which made him sigh. Answering the phone soon after as he waited in the waiting room. "Yeah?" He answered the phone knowing it was Joy who was calling him. "Where are you? I thought you were coming in." Joy spoke through the phone, Jungkook sighing. "I am.. Well.. I was i'm sorry okay? Maybe Vernon can do it-" he spoke but Joy cut Jungkook off.

Joy scoffed. "I'm sure Vernon would love to take over for you but you need to get your hours in. Because other people are dying and Mr. Kim will be alright. He's twenty one, he is a man Jungkook." Joy scolded Jungkook who was eyeing the doctor coming down the hallway. "Yeah gotta go." Jungkook hung up before Joy could say anything else, standing up.

"His vitals are stable and everything is going well. That's all I can really tell you and if all goes well, he should be out less than eight hours." The intern spoke and Jungkook nodded. "Thank you." He sighed in relief as he sat back down. "Jungkook was it?" He asked and Jungkook nodded. "Sorry, I hear about you from the nurses but.. is Taehyung your family?" He asked, genuinely wanting to know why a paramedic— a stranger was taking care of someone he didn't know.

"You're new huh." Jungkook spoke, looking at his own hands. "Yeah.. sorry no I should get back to the OR." He waved but Jungkook spoke up. "Ever get into an accident and wake up with the people you love dead? Basically all alone?" He asked and the male shook his head. "I don't have to be family, or know him years to stay with a boy who is scared and alone. You don't know how he feels and i'm the only one willing to stay with him. So no, i'm not family but i'm someone who cares." Jungkook looked at the male with piercing eyes.

The intern gulped before nodding. "Okay.." he pursed his lips before heading right back to the OR. Jungkook sighed, leaning back and rubbing his face as he looked at the light above him. Did he really just admit that he cares for Taehyung? Oh boy. This was... getting to be a lot. Soon after though Jungkook saw his fiancé who had a container of food. Jungkook raised an eyebrow, smiling as he sat up once Keeya noticed him.

Keeya ran over. "Hey there cutie." She giggled and Jungkook hummed, bringing her in for a kiss as he then pulled away, letting her sit down. "What's this?" He asked, Keeya already taking the lid off. "I figured you were eating hospital food so I made you this. Eat up!" She gave the container to Jungkook. Jungkook nodded with a huge smile, taking the container happily.

Hours have passed and Jungkook was now talking about the colors for their wedding only because Keeya was hung up on it. "Pink and white?" She spoke, Jungkook sighing. "You really are hung up on this pink theme huh." He patted her thigh and Keeya nodded. "I'm only going to get married once.. you know how much I want this." She pouted.

Jungkook looked at his loves face and kissed her pout. "Okay, fine. Pink and white if that's what my fiancé wants." He sat back and Keeya clapped her hands. "Yay!" She squealed, hugging Jungkook who hugged her back, kissing her neck. "I'm not wearing a pink tux though." He mumbled. Keeya scoffed, "It would fit well with the theme." She pouted her lip again. Jungkook never really noticed how many times Keeya would pout in a day.. they've been together for quite some while so he was basically used to it.

"Mr. Jeon?" Jungkook looked to see the intern from earlier standing there with a smile to his fiancé. "Yes?" He stood up along with Keeya. "Mr. Kim's surgery was successful, no problems whatsoever." He spoke with the doctor beside him who smiled and nodded along with what the intern said. Jungkook smiled and nodded, squeezing onto Keeya's hand. "That... is great, thank you." He breathed out.

The intern nodded. "Would you like to see him?" He asked and Jungkook nodded, looking at Keeya. "And.. i'll just get going, call me okay?" She kissed Jungkook's cheek. Jungkook nodded and followed the doctor who talked about how bad the injuries were but how they also fixed it. "He has many weeks of recovery ahead of him though so he will need family here."

Jungkook nodded, looking at the peaceful boy, opening the door to the ICU. Jungkook sat down next to the bed. Now it was just the waiting game for Jungkook.

"Hey sleepyhead." Jungkook tilted his head as he watched Taehyung open his eyes. Taehyung blinked several times, gulping. "H-Hey." He spoke out dryly. Jungkook grabbed the cup of water and a straw, bringing it to Taehyung's lips. Taehyung took a sip before relaxing back. The male looked at the machines. "It all went well?" He asked.

Jungkook nodded with a smile. "Everything went amazing. Your leg is back in place and your heart is good. Not one hundred percent okay but... it's an improvement. Everything is good." He spoke proudly. Taehyung nodded as he started to tear up. "Damnit." He clenched his fists while his tears threatened to fall but he kept them in which resulted a crack in his voice. "What?" Jungkook asked confusingly. "I was hoping maybe they found cancer or.. maybe one of my organs were dying or maybe even I would die on the table.. god Jungkook I.. I just want to die.." he looked at the male.

Jungkook looked at the male speechless. He tried to speak but nothing would come out. "Jimin's funeral is today and I can't do anything but lay here when that should have been me! I try to convince myself I deserve to live but I can't! I don't want to live.. I don-t wan't t-to live.." Taehyung squeezed his eyes shut and tried to escape this nightmare he thought he was in. The surgery didn't take him out but he wished that it did. It just.. it hurt to live.

Taehyung never wanted to die like this before. Taehyung was not suicidal at all but after losing Jimin he just couldn't help but want to die. He wanted so bad to switch places with Jimin. He blamed himself and Taehyung didn't know how to stop. Thinking this surgery would take him out of his misery but here he was... and he felt worse than ever for still being alive.

Jungkook pursed his lips before grabbing Taehyung's hand and holding it. "You'll feel like dying.. for a very very long time and you'll hate yourself.. you'll lose friends from how common you say you want to die or because they think its your fault as well. Though Taehyung.. you just keep living. You keep living for Jimin, because I know and you know he would want that. He.. took care of you before he took care of himself.. so live for him."

Taehyung choked out a sob. Jungkook frowned as he put the side of the bed down and got into the bed, bringing Taehyung into a cuddle. Taehyung grabbed onto Jungkook's shirt and cried on his shoulder. "My parents didn't even come.." he mumbled which just added on to the ache in his heart.
