Lemon yellow bursts through Jimin's orbs when he slowly opens his still-heavy eyelids, but he breathes out softly when he can hear the soft beeping of the cardiogram next to him. Rays of sunlight dance gracefully on the mint green fabric, as if welcoming him back to this earthly place.

For the first time in his life, he wonders why he is alive. In that taut situation, he could have been killed, and it was Jungkook's image that he last saw, he wanted to imprint in the back of his mind so that if he left this planet, he would be able to remember him. Although they were definitely not each others' first but deep inside, Jimin knows that he wants the bunny to be his last. However, his fate had other plans for him by making him hospitalized, tubes attached to him in order to function his body. All in all, Jimin's body feels limp and weak as he rubs the exhaustion on his tiring face, propping himself up by the elbows to settle his back on the cream-colored wall.

Jungkook, where could he be after this?

The older jolts up when he finally remembers that Jungkook was shot on his side. He couldn't and will never shake off the guilt that he left him back then to tackle the situation himself. But just a little of him, he hopes Jungkook will know what he's doing for him...

"Oh, you're awake!" A voice exclaims, making Jimin visibly flinches when he looks up from the crinkled duvet to the brown-haired male. There next to the door is his hyung Seokjin, who is mumbling apologies yet is also glowing with jubilance when he sees the younger finally up from his deep slumber. No sooner Jimin smiles and greets back than the older rushes over as if he was going to leap off the floor and engulfs Jimin in a tight embrace. Jimin isn't hurt, but he is honestly being suffocated in that bear hug hyung is giving him.

"We miss you so much." Jin smiles, his eyes glisten slightly with small droplets of tears. What makes Jimin notice is the sudden change in pronoun, but his concern fades away almost immediately when his other colleagues come flocking into his room. Namjoon, Hosoek, Taehyung, Lisa, even Jisoo and Chief Yoongi come in and they are all kind enough to bring him a bouquet of tulips and some apples to boost his immunity. Yet, something is missing. No, someone..

"Hyung, where's Jungkook?"

"Ah, Jungkook?" Seokjin raises his eyebrows while busying himself with the records and the beeping numbers displayed on the cardiogram. He mumbles a bit, which Jimin guessing that it only relates to his condition since after that, the hyung nods satisfyingly. "He's outside the room."

"Why? Did I do anything wrong?" Jimin tries to rack his brain, searching through the days for his mistakes or something that could have infuriated the younger. However, Jimin's scrunched face makes Hoseok laughs audibly, who is sitting next to him all the time.

"He's the one who took him in the wrong." Hosoek breathes out the story while everybody else is here, his calloused fingers are accompanied with Taehyung's luscious chocolate-brown locks. "Don't be surprised though, he got discharged sooner than you since the wound was treatable and his immune system is surprisingly in good shape prior to the damage. No wonder Tae calls him muscle bunny."
