Just as he wished, the miracle happened. A punch in his ribs, making his face red from the missing air.

"You sure you don't want to talk?" Asked a man while a grin danced in his lips which only made Taehyung more sure to not talk. He could see the guy, getting ready for another punch when a loud thud was heard making them all turn their heads to the big door of the unused underground parking lot. There they stood with guns in both hands while wearing black clothes, some masks, and caps, while a girl stood behind one muscular man.

"Don't move or your head will blast open," said the tallest one, while a lil smirk was in lips. In mere seconds one man grabbed Taehyung and put a knife in his throat keeping him in his hold.

"Shoot and he dies," shouted him while putting the knife if he could nearer to his throat.

"You don't know with who you're messing with," warned a wide shoulder man while his face was in range.

"We don't care who you are, we needed only Suga and he made the things difficult for us, so he has to pay," he said pointing to Taehyung where the girl shoots a glare in his face, sending arrows past his head.

"Hahaha, brought his girlfriend to see his death?" Laughed the man followed by his comrades.

"Say again a thing for him and I swear-" was interrupted Jihee with the other man talk.

"Shut up, you slut!" It didn't waste a time, one of the Bangtan broke the window behind him and shove a big knife behind his back while Taehyung fall in the ground, weak.

"Talk again bad about my family and you'll face worst. We're Bangtan," said with a chuckle Jhope while he had a dark grin in his expression. The others took no time to shoot the others and Ji run to her brother's side.

"Tae! Tae! Tae! Open your eyes, please! Taehyung!" shouted the girl while shaking his body.

"Ji, let's get him home," said Kook getting him on his shoulders with Jimin.

"Sshh don't cry. He'll be fine" said Jimin whipping her unnoticeable tears with his thumb caressing also her cheek.

Hoping he would be fine, they drive fast home, while Jin was giving the first aid.

They went all inside with him while the girl stayed behind, her thoughts exploring her mind giving all the possible choices. 'What if he, he, died?' 'What if he never gets up' 'what if I'm left alone?' 'Will everyone sends me away' 'will I be left alone' She let it pass, she runs and runs, leaving the elevator behind and getting on the third floor in a breath. She pushes the others and got near Taehyung who seemed to be awakened. 

She didn't waste her time to go and crash him into a hug, couldn't help but her tears to roam down her cheeks.

"Taehyung!Taehyung!Taehyung!Taehyung!" She choked up, in a whisper.

He managed to get his hands up and pat her head, forcing a weak smile.

"Ji, please let me heal him," said Jin while she got away from Taehyung looking at him again for the last time before everyone got outside, except Yoongi who was there all along and Jungkook who stayed behind. Someone put his hand on her shoulder and she turned around at the person.  Jimin. His eyes were full of saddest and fear. He needed her to tell it's okay, he didn't believe himself, even thou he already did.

"It's gonna be okay" she whispered in his ear as they already were in each other's embrace. She holds him like she was going to lose him, while he did feel the same. Hoseok and Namjoon look at each other finding themselves extra at this moment. They quietly left to downstairs and sit on the couch waiting for news from Jin.

On the other hand, the couple hasn't left the tight hug, not wanting to left this little warmness in their sad heart. Her mind was thinking again and again if she would be left alone.

"Don't leave me, I am scared to be alone yet again." She whispered so low, while a part of her wanted that it wasn't heard.

"Never. I would never leave you, and, and neither will he. I love you. You are my serendipity."

That was the thing that pulls them apart. She looked at his eyes, her hands moved unconsciously to his lips caressing them slowly.

"How are you mine?" she mouthed and for her luck he didn't hear it, too busy melting into the kiss with her lips taking her in surprise. It didn't last long, they pulled and he just whispered slowly something that made her blush like crazy, but it wasn't time, they both knew this. She calmed herself and wait, their backs on the wall, waiting and waiting. And finally the door open and Jin walked out with an unreadable face. Like what was wrong was also right.

"Jin-"

"I'm sorry Ji. I'm so sorry. I tried t-"

He paused as the girl in front of him went white in the face, her knees weak and soon she was in the ground. The last thing she heard was her name being called, so far away from where she was, now.
