My wide eyes don't exactly cover up my shock as my already reddened face becomes hotter when the handsome man scoots closer to my side and wraps one arm around my waist.

Mr Kim appears infront of us before I can stutter out a word.

'The cute doctor, good choice son.' Mr Kim smiles gently as he pats my new couple on the back.

Wait... he is Mr Kim's son! I say to myself. I look at his face but he seems completely unbothered by this situation.

He almost looks smug.

His gentle yet protective hand on my shivering waist pulls me closer before he begins to walk forward passed the other couples.

He stops to my surprise when we reach the table from before.

His deep voice sends a calming vibration through me. 'Kim Taehyung and miss Y/N Y/L/N' he states.

The women writes our names down together and simply stated a room number along with handing over a key.

Mr Kim speaks up once more. 'All couples will be staying in a given room and all children will be assigned an infertile adult to act as their care giver for now.

The water pump and the power generator have been fitted so this whole building is supplied with those things. Please only use them for essential things. In the morning everyone report to this hall at 8 am so we can sort out jobs and facilities. Goodnight everyone.'

He ends what he is saying and bows quickly before going off to what I assume is his room.

Taehyung grabs my hand with his and pulls me gently towards the stairs.

I look back to see Jack with an older looking women who was comforting him sweetly. I relaxed when I realised he was safe and okay.

After a few flights of stairs we end up infront of a door with the number 18 on it.

Taehyung opens the door with the key and stands back for me to enter first.

I hesitantly go in and remove my shoes, kind of uncomfortable at the fact that I would have to stay in a room with a gorgeous man who I had only just met.

I look around momentarily seeing that everything which you would normally find in a hotel room was there.

An en-suite, a bed, a desk with a chair, small packets of food, cups and even cupboard containing a set of basic clothes for a man and women

An en-suite, a bed, a desk with a chair, small packets of food, cups and even cupboard containing a set of basic clothes for a man and women.

It was so clean and untouched compared to the outside of the building.

'Take a shower, I'm sure you're tired from the trip.' He says as he turns on the dim light in the bathroom.

'O-ok' I accidentally stutter which makes him smile and look down.

He hands me a set of clothes and I enter into the bathroom. I shut the door and strip my clothes before turning on the water.

I sigh in awe as the water hits my skin. Although it maybe super cold, it was still a shower that I so craved for for 4 days now.

I look down at my stomach and slowly start to clean my huge 3 cuts.

I got them during the total anarchy in my home town. Someone set the hospital on fire and during my escape I had to climb out of a broken window which lacerated my skin.

I hold in my cry of pain as I finish cleaning it and hop out the shower.

I carefully pull on my panties and clean trousers and reach back to clip my bra on.

Painfully the scabs starts to tear as I finally get the angle to hook the bra together.

I whimper in pain and collapse on my knees as a trickle of blood starts to tumble out.

My trembling figure attempts to stand up as a worried voice comes from the other side.

'Y/N! Are you okay? I heard a noise!'

I took a deep breath and swallowed down the pain to answer. 'T-Taehyung, u-um can you help me?'

'What's wrong sweetheart? Please let me in, I can't help you if I can't see you.'

Shakily I lifted my arm up to pull down the door handle. I felt so embarrassed as I knew that in just a few seconds I would be sitting in front of him without my top on.

He slowly enters and his eyes widen in worry. 'What happened   Y/N?!' He quickly grabs my towel and applies pressure onto my stomach.

'I-I got cut a few w-weeks ago. A-and it just opened up now.' I say as my face turns a little pale and my body begins to shiver again.

'Stay still okay just let me grab the first aid kit.'

He quickly leaves the bathroom and returns within seconds with a green box.

He sits me up from leaning against the wall and instead leans my weight onto his chest.

He removes the towel and begins to wrap a bandage all the way around my stomach multiple times.

'Too tight?' He asks as I fidget a little from the pain.

I quickly shake my head no so he carries on.

Tears creep out my eyes as he hands me some pain killers which I dry swallow before he has the chance to get me some water.

My heavy eyes struggle to stay open as the sleepless 3 days finally take a toll on my body.

He finally finishes bandaging my cuts before picking me up bridal style and placing me on the bed.

He sits beside me on the bed while intertwining his fingers in mine.

'Why are you being so nice to me?... Y-you don't know me.'  I say trying to get comfortable on the cold bed sheets.

His concerned face turns soft when he hears my questions.

'When you first arrived, I saw how you cared for that little boy even though you didn't know him. I saw how brave and kind you are and thought if I had to couple up with someone, those are the qualities I want in them... besides, the human race is in danger and as your new couple, I guess it's my job to look out for you and care for you the way you did to that little boy.'

I smile gently at his words. 'Thank you' I whisper with my remaining energy.

He smiles too while tracing circles with his thumb onto my hand.

A few moments later he goes off into the bathroom to change his clothes and put the first aid kit away.

My eyes begin to close but my mind remains awake as my shivering worsens...
