Madilyn POV

Tae runs up to me and hugs me.

Tae: What happened?

I tell him and the detectives everything. One of the detectives that is here is the same one that helped with Jaxson, Baekhyun, and Mark’s case.

RM: Everyone but the leader committed suicide.

Madilyn: I did shoot one in the leg, but it didn’t seem to hurt him.

Detective: We’re going to take Madilyn into the station to question her. You guys can go home though. We don’t want you waiting at the station ‘cause it might be a while. And they can charge you with trespassing.

I hug them all and assure them I’ll call when I’m done. We go into the station and they question me for 36 hours straight. They question me about, Baekhyun, Jaxson, and Mark’s case. They don’t have any leads on where the leader could be. After that, I call the others to be picked up. I get in the car and Tae pulls me into his lap.

Tae: Are you hungry?

Madilyn: Not really.

Jungkook: Do you need anything, Noona?

Madilyn: I just want to go home.

We go home and I jump in the shower. After that, I go in the living room and they all surround me on the couch.

Madilyn: You guys shouldn’t have gone in there. I told you to wait.

Suga: You were gone for an hour, we weren’t going to wait. And the cops weren’t getting there fast enough.

Madilyn: Even though I told you guys not to, thank you.

Jimin: We got everything canceled so we could be home with you.

Madilyn: You guys shouldn’t have done that.

J-Hope: We want to be here with you.

Madilyn: I couldn’t save him. I had one job.

I start crying and they all pull me into a big group hug. Over the course of the next two days, I haven’t eaten or done anything. I’m either staring at the ceiling or crying on one of their shoulders. Today’s the day of the funeral and RM talked me into going.

Time Skip

After the funeral, I stay there. He got buried right beside Jaxson. I sit down on the marble floor.

Suga: You want me to go?

Madilyn: Sure.

He walks out and inside the car.

Madilyn: Baekhyun? You guys never visited as you said.

Baekhyun: We’re right here, Jagiya.

I turn around and see them sitting behind me.

Jaxson: We didn’t come because they were comforting you. You need to get used to having them there for you instead of us.

Madilyn: You’re going to leave me too?

Mark: What? No! We just want you to get used to having them there instead of us.

Jaxson: I have a surprise for you. Close your eyes.

I close my eyes and feel someone put their hand on my shoulder.

Woozi: Hi, Madi.

Madilyn: Woozi?!

I open my eyes and see him sitting in front of me. I hug him super tight.

Mark: He learns quickly.

Madilyn: I’m sorry. I was supposed to help you.

Woozi: Don’t blame yourself. It wasn’t your fault. Anything could’ve happened.

Madilyn: It’s just, everyone keeps getting taken away from me.

Woozi: Everything will work out for the best, I promise.

Madilyn: You dying wasn’t for the best.

Baekhyun: Jagiya, I love you.

Madilyn: I love you too. I love all of you.

Mark: Your boyfriend is coming.

Madilyn: He’s not my boyfriend!

Mark: Not yet.

Baekhyun: And he won’t be. I’m not ready to let her go.

Jaxson: You guys are so immature.

Baekhyun: We got to go.

Woozi: I’ll try to visit you tonight.

Madilyn: Okay. Love you guys.

They all respond with I love you.

Suga: Jin just texted. Dinner is done. He wants us there before it gets cold.

Madilyn: I’m not really hungry.

Suga: You haven’t eaten in a couple of days, I’m worried.

Madilyn: Let’s just go home.

I get in the car and wait for him to climb in.

Suga POV

I’m really worried about Madi. I was just like this when Joshua died. I wouldn’t eat or do anything. I’d sleep a lot. I don’t want Madi to do the things I did. We drive home and she goes straight to her bedroom. I go to her door and hear things being thrown. I knock on the door but I don’t get an answer. When I open the door I see picture books, books, notebooks, and paper thrown everywhere.

Suga: Madi?

Madilyn: What? What the hell do you want?

At this point, none of us are shocked. After talking with the doctor after she threatened to hurt herself, he told us she’d be really angry. That she would try to push us away. But we can’t let her. We need to let her know we’re here for her.

Suga: Come here.

She stays rooted in her spot so I walk over to her and hug her. Shockingly she hugs me back and I hear her start to cry.

Madilyn: I should've been the one to die. It was my fault again. I killed him.

Suga: You didn't kill him. Everything happened just like it was meant to.

Madilyn: Are you saying Woozi was supposed to die?

She pulls out of the hug. But I pull her back into it.

Suga: No, I'm saying you did everything you could. Its not your fault.

Madilyn: I’m sorry. I didn’t mean that. I don’t like this angry person I’ve become.

Suga: It’s going to be alright. You’ll get better and the pain will go away.

Madilyn: It honestly hurts too much, Yoongi. I don’t deserve you guys. I’ve been horrible to you guys.

Suga: You need us and we need you. We know you don’t mean any of this. Need help cleaning this up?

She pulls out of the hug and looks at the mess she’s created.

Madilyn: If you wouldn’t mind.

Suga: Good thing I don’t.

We start picking everything up and I realize one of the picture books were in time order from when she and Woozi met until his death. The other one was a lot of pictures of her with the gang. And I found one with her and Tae.

Suga: We should create a picture book like this. BTS and it’s eighth member.

Madilyn: You guys have an eighth member. Who?

Suga: You, silly.

She laughs and I instantly feel like the happiest person on the world hearing her laugh.
