   I froze as I stared at the gun in his hands.  I put my hands up in surrender.   

     "Stupid bitch."  he spat at me before he swung at me.  I put my arms infront my me to brace myself.  He grabbed my arms and pulled me towards him and in one swift movement I felt the butt of his gun bash into my skull...and then...nothing.

================================================================================

    I could hear this steady, annoying beeping noise as I began to come back to consciousness.  I couldn't move.  I felt trapped in my own body.  I couldn't talk, open my eyes, even twitch!  I couldn't do anything but hear.   I wanted to rip my eardrums out than listen to the constant beeping anymore.  It was making my head hurt more than it already did.  I heard the beeping increase and get louder causing my head to hurt more.  Suddenly there was a bustling of noise as other sounds filled in with the beeping.

    "Her BP is 162/91 and rising.  Heart rate at 108 and rising.  She must be regaining some consciousness.  Quick some more morphine to her drip.  We'll have to increase her fluid intake as well now that the swelling I her skull has gone down.  We'll have to see if we should but her back on osmotherapy or not.  (AN: Osmotherapy is when your brain swells, it accumulates excess fluid. Osmotherapy is a technique meant to draw water out of the brain. This is done using osmotic agents such as mannitol, or high-salt saline.)   It's painful, but its a good sign that she's still fighting.  We almost lost her a couple of times earlier."  I heard someone comment.  I was stunned...was I in a hospital?  I must be...did I almost die?!  What the hell?!  What happened?  How did I get here?  Where was Yoongi, was he okay?!  

      "Once the pain meds kick in we can let that man in here.  He's been fighting with the receptionist for over an hour now that she's out of the ICU.  He won't go back to his own room unless he sees her."  I heard another voice say.  Yoongi was here?  Was he trying to see me?  Was he hurt too?  

    "It might overwhelm her.  She'll likely have some PTSD or trauma of some sort after that ordeal.  I heard it was pretty bad.  Biggest hybrid underground ring bust in the past five years.  Pity that she got pulled into it.  Heard from one of the EMTs that she had been taken prisoner and by those criminals and abused."  Said a male voice.

    "Really?  Damn."  I heard a female respond.  I heard someone new walking into the room.

"Its true.  Actually the man in the hospital gown by the receptionist right not is her hybrid.  He was captured with her too."  said a new female voice.  I felt my chest tighten in excitement.  It was Yoongi then!  He was alive.  He was okay! 

    "He's a hybrid!?  I'd have no idea.  He doesn't even have a collar on."  gaped the first female.  

"She doesn't make him wear one."  replied the newer female.   I heard movement as people were walking away and a door shut...I was back to being alone...with nothing but the beeping...the fucking beeping.  I tried to focus on anything other than the annoying beeping coming from the monitors next to me.  I ears seemed to perk up more as I heard the door open.  I listen carefully but I didn't hear anyone say anything.  Just footsteps coming towards my bed.  I heard chair scrape across the floor before abruptly stopping at my bedside.  Someone sat down and I felt the bed dip down on my left side as I felt my hand being held in between two large hands.  I knew these hands.  I had held them many times.  Even with the bandages on both of our hands I still knew.   

     "I'm here princess."  I heard him whispered gently.  "I'm here."  His voice cracked.

"You promised you were never going to leave me....you damn better be sure you don't break that promise.  You hear me?  You promised me, (y/n)!"  I heard him as he clenched my hand in his.  I could feel his tears and warm breath hitting my hand.  

     "Please....please don't leave me here alone."  I heard him whimper.  I wanted so badly just to hug him...but I couldn't move.  I was so frustrated.  I was in so much emotional and physical pain I didn't know what to do.  It wasn't until I felt his hand brush my cheek did I realize that I had done something...I was crying.

    "Thank you."  he whispered softly as I felt his lips press on my forehead.   "Thank you for letting me know that you are still here."  There wasn't anything else I could do.  I didn't know I would ever be so grateful to cry in my life.  He stayed at my bed side.  I don't know how much time passed.  I think that I fell asleep at some point, but I'm not sure.  I must have because when I came back to I didn't feel Yoongi holding my hand anymore. 

    "...he can't keep being in here for so long without his own treatment.  He maybe a hybrid but even they can't just magically heal from a gunshot wound..."  When I heard his I think my heart skipped a beat...Yoongi had been shot!!!?  What!?  

    "...passed out.  Brough him back to his own room.  Good thing we checked on him when we did....should we just but them in the same room?..."  I wanted to scream "yes" to whoever suggested that, but I could do nothing but lay there and listen.

    "Might be best, but we'll have to wait until he's stabilized again.  Then we can work on getting the two of them in their own room."  If I could have breathed out a sigh of relief I would have but, nonetheless; I could not do anything but listen.  

    "If one of them dies... after all that they have been through...I don't know if the other one will pull through without the other..."
