"Jinyeong are you awake?" Junkook whispered. He knows what he felt. Jinyeong moved.
"Jinyeong, if you can hear me and understand me, squeeze my hand again." Jungkook whispered again.
Her hand tightened then released.
"Jinyeong oh my god you can hear me. Okay, squeeze once for yes and twice for no, okay?" Jungkook should have woken up someone else and called the doctor, but he just wanted to make sure Jinyeong was okay. He felt her squeeze her his hand once and then still.
"Are you in any pain?" One squeeze.
"Do you know who I am?" One squeeze.
"Do you know where you are?" One squeeze.
"Do you want me to get a doctor?" Two squeezes.
"Do you want me to wake up anyone else?" No squeezes.
"Jinyeong? Your dads, Yoongi, and Jimin are here. Do you want me to wake anyone up?" Two squeezes.
"Are you hungry?" One squeeze.
"Are you tired?" Two squeezes.
"Do you really remember me?" Jungkook waited for a squeeze. He held his breath for what seemed like forever before he felt her squeeze his hand once.
Letting out a breath, Jungkook told her that he was going to get a nurse so that they could fully wake her up and get her new medicine flowing, also hoping that they could set up something for her to eat.

Jin and Namjoon woke up when they heard the nurses working, quickly getting up and going over to see what they were doing.
To their surprise, there was Jungkook, spoon feeding Jinyeong some kind of pudding while making faces and getting her to smile. She couldn't talk since her jaw was broken, but she could still open it enough to eat mushy foods and drink, and of course, to smile.
Jin walked over and held her hand, noticing her flinch but imediatley relax when she saw who it was. Namjoon just watched with a smile as Jungkook taught Jin how Jinyeong was communicating with hand squeezes.
Yoongi and Jimin woke up in the morning to a crash. Jumping up, they saw that Jinyeong was attempting to get out of bed to use the bathroom.
Jin and Namjoon had went home an hour ago to shower and get some comfortable clothes and Jungkook had gone down to the cafeteria.
Rushing over, Yoongi picked up his sister before she tried to get up again.
"I'll go get a wheelchair." Jimin said as he walked out to find not only a wheelchair, but a nurse so that she could actually use the bathroom.
Yoongi felt Jinyeong squeezing his hand sparatically, not understanding what she was trying to convey to him.
"Jinyeong, calm down, calm down. Jimin is going to get a nurse and a chair so that you can go, okay?" Jinyeong just shook her head and kept squeezing Yoongis hand in what seemed to be random intervals, but was actually quite precise.
Just as Yoongi was about to press a button for the emergency nurses, Jungkook walked in and saw what was happening. Grabbing her hand from Yoongis, he felt her squeeze his hand spelling out, "don't leave again."
"Okay, okay, I'm here, I'm not going anywhere, okay? I'm here." Jungkook took her head and layed it on his chest as he crawled into the bed with her.
Yoongi noticed how she immediately calmed down and settled into him.
"So she doesn't need the bathroom?" Yoongi asked.
"No. She was freaking out because I left I guess." Jungkook replied.
"How did you know that? She was just squeezing my hand randomly."
"I taught her morse code so that for time while she can't speak, she can just tell us what she needs with her hands by squeezing."
"Oh. Where do you know morse code from?" Yoongi asked while sitting down at the foot of the bed.
"I learned it from my brother, actually. He taught me when we were really young. We used to pretend we were spies, so he learned morse code and taught me to make it seem more realistic. Turns out, it's really helpful when you're taking a test and your brother is in the room." Jungkook chuckled at the memory.
"Where is your brother now?"
"He's at college. Studying to become a surgeon." Jungkook leaned into Jinyeong more, missing his brother.
"Oh. That's really cool. You should be really proud." Yoongi took notice of how much Jungkook missed his brother and wondered if he should keep talking.
Luckily, Jimin came back with a nurse and a wheelchair, so Yoongi had to walk over and explain everything to him.
Jungkook just wrapped his arms around Jinyeong, holding her as close as possible. Jinyeong was still feeling loopy from the drugs, but she could still tell who was holding her by the strong arms and cologne. Squeezing his arm, Jinyeong told Jungkook something she had been meaning to say for a while.
Jungkook just felt as she squeezed him, his eyes widening when she finished.

I love you, Jungkook.
