VENDETTA | VKOOK

┌EIGHTEEN┐

Jimin's gun loosely fell from his hand onto the floor along with him. He brought his trembling fingers to his stomach, which had a dark hole in it. Blood poured out of it, soaking up his white shirt.

Jungkook gasped, eyes widening in horror, falling onto his knees beside him. Jungkook saw the pain in Jimin's eyes and felt his own stomach wallow with guilt. "O-oh my god- Jimin-" Jungkook choked out, and Jimin gasped out, trying to catch his breath.

Suddenly, Jungkook was pushed away roughly- and Jungkook saw fear struck brown eyes and blonde hair. Jungkook saw as Yoongi collapsed onto the floor, grabbing Jimin's hands tightly.

"Hey- hey hey, you're okay. You're okay- don't worry baby, you're alright-" Yoongi said quickly, his voice shaking as well. Jimin looked at Yoongi with teary eyes.

"I-I-I'm s-sorry-" Jimin breathed out, and Yoongi shook his head rapidly, gripping Jimin's hands tighter.

"No- n-no- it's not your fault. You'll be fine. You'll be just fine." Yoongi stammered, and then looked at Taehyung, who had a phone pressed to his ear.

"The ambulance will get here soon," Taehyung said.

"How soon?" Jin asked, and Taehyung gulped, looking nervous as well.

"I-I don't know- they said ten minutes or so-" Taehyung mumbled.

"Ten minutes?! That's too long- Hoseok, get the car," Yoongi snapped, and Namjoon pursed his lips.

"Yoongi- it'll be better for Jimin to-"

"I said get the fucking car!" Yoongi yelled, and Hoseok already ran up the stairs to get the car. Namjoon sighed and rushed up after him.

Yoongi placed his hand on Jimin's, which was placed on his abdomen. "Breathe. Just breathe, baby- just breathe." Yoongi whispered, and Jimin breathed shakily.

"I-I-I c-c-can't-" Jimin choked out, and Yoongi suddenly saw some blood dribble out of Jimin's mouth, and his eyes drifting ever so lightly.

Yoongi felt dread swallow him whole and lifted Jimin's head up from the back. "No- J-Jimin- keep your eyes open for me-" Yoongi stammered, and then looked at Taehyung.

"T-Taehyung help me get him u-up-" Yoongi ordered shakily, and Taehyung could see the fear in his eyes. Fear in losing someone who he loved.

Taehyung reached forward, helping Yoongi lift him up. Jimin's head lolled onto the crevice of Yoongi's neck, and he started breathing heavily, shaking.

"Jimin- breathe. Just keep breathing. Keep breathing." Yoongi said, and Jimin grabbed onto Yoongi's shirt.

"I-i-it hurts," Jimin choked out, and Yoongi looked at him, seeing the pain and conflict in his eyes. He wished all that pain could be transferred to him instead.

"I know, I know- I'm sorry- it'll be fine, everything will be fine." Yoongi said, seemingly to Jimin and to himself. They finally reached the exit of the house, and saw the car parked in front of it. Yoongi dashed forward and helped Jimin get in, lying on his back.

"Apply pressure to his wound-" Yoongi instructed, and Jin nodded, sitting halfway in the backseat, and took his jacket and wrapped it around Jimin's abdomen tightly.

Taehyung and Jungkook still stood outside the car, and Namjoon looked at them. "Grab a taxi and come to the hospital." Namjoon informed, and Taehyung nodded, taking his phone out.

The car doors closed and Yoongi sat by Jimin's legs, having his hands placed tightly on the gunshot. Jimin looked at him, teary eyed.

"I'm... s-sorry... c-can-t---- b-b-breathe--" Jimin barely breathed out, before his eyes slowly slid shut.
