Reflection (Kim Namjoon x Reader)

Chapter 28

Without listening to his plan, the three of you jumped into Yoongi's car and drove to the city. Every minute passed was every minute that something could happen to him. Taehyung patted your head to calm you down, but you wouldn't be fine until you see him again. The car drove nonstop until it reached the hospital, where Jimin was already outside. Seeing him in the white doctor coat made you think about what would happen if you had accepted his apologies. You would be married to a doctor, and lived a potentially good life. You chuckled bitterly, there was no one else you wanted.

By plan, he meant a scene out of an action movie. Jimin recounted a famous prison break out he had watched on television a few days ago. As he spoke, Yoongi's lips pursed, he was greatly concerned about how this person is a doctor. "And that's how we'll get him out," he concluded.

"Remind me why you dated him again?" Yoongi leaned over in an attempt to whisper, but everyone heard him.

"Honestly, I don't know, he had nice hair," you shrugged. Jimin's eyebrows furrowed as his lips came to a pout. After years of dying his hair different colors, it was now as coarse and dry as hay. But somehow he still managed to run his hand through it effortlessly.

"Okay, obviously that won't work," Taehyung chimed in. "Maybe we can convince the doctor who's in charge of him to let us in."

"Highly unlikely," Jimin shook his head. "The doctor in charge of Namjoon-ssi is Dr.Yang and he's been bought already. But even if Namjoon's parents haven't given him money, he would have still helped them because he's just as terrible."

You bit your lips. The four of you were hurdling near the entrance of the hospital. Civilians were passing uncertain glances at your direction. "Okay, we can't stay here any longer. We have to think of something." Looking around at the shops, your eyes stumbled on one that might help. A smirk appeared on your face.

"Oh no," Yoongi sighed, "That's your thinking face. I hate that face."

"What are you thinking about Y/N?" Taehyung asked.

You eyed both him and Yoongi up and down. "What size suit do you wear?"

As it turns out, you went with Jimin's prison break plan, sort of. The idea was to trick the guards into believing there had been a shift change. Jimin would escort the two new guards, and pretend that it was an order from the family and Dr. Yang. "I swear if I get beat up, I'm never bringing you food again," Yoongi warned through gritted teeth. Taehyung was nervous as he buttoned up his shirt, and his fiance noticed right away. "Winter bear, you don't have to do this, I can go alone."

"No, you can't," Taehyung chuckled. "You might act all tough but I know you need me here. Besides, I want to test out my acting skills." The group reconvened outside of the bathroom, Jimin brought a nurse outfit for you to change into and you questioned how he has one in the first place. He rolled his eyes.

"Ready?" you asked. Everyone hesitantly nodded. "Look, I know this is a ridiculous thing to do. Helping someone we barely know but thank you for doing this with me.
Taehyung patted your back. "He's important to you and so he's important to us."

"And if we succeed, I'll make him pay for our wedding," Yoongi added. After a chorus of nervous chuckles, it was time to go. Jimin stood a little taller and prouder, his natural confident aura emanating from his body like a waterfall. That reminded you of why you had liked him, because you wanted that confidence for yourself. You walked behind him and the two men in suits and dark glasses followed close behind. When nurses saw Jimin, they giggled and covered their mouths. Some things never change.

As you approached the room where he was, you immediately noticed the two guards standing outside the door. They stood tall, backs parallel to the wall, faces stone cold. You gulped. When they saw the group approaching, one of the men instantly moved forward to block. Jimin scoffed. "I need to check on the patient as per Dr. Yang's instruction."

"We don't let anyone in here except Dr. Yang." the man said in a threatening voice.

"He is currently at a conference and I need to check on the patient's vitals," Jimin asserted. "If anything goes wrong, it'll be on your head."

The man breathed out slowly, "Who are they?" he gestured to two men behind you.

"We're here for a shift change," Taehyung answered boldly, his volume and tone matched that of the man. "Didn't you get the memo?"

"Shift change?" the man repeated. "I didn't receive any instruction from the Kim's."

"I guess you're just expendable then," Taehyung smirked, it made the man tense up. "My partner and I received the order this morning from Madam Kim herself. Call her if you want, but I'm sure you're aware of how busy she is. If you wanted to keep being employed for them, I suggest you follow my orders and make this shift change a little bit easier. And besides, it's only an hour so that you and he can get a nice lunch. On the house, of course."

The man sighed, "Why didn't you just say that earlier?" he chuckled, "I'm starving. C'mon, let's go." Within seconds, they were gone from the premise with no other questions asked. You let out the breath you've been holding.

"Tae, I think you chose the wrong career," you said.

He laughed, "Maybe for when I retire." Jimin slid open the door and gestured for you all to come in, except Yoongi, who stood guard. Your heart started beating again when you saw him. Chocolate hair covering his eyes as his chest slowly rose and fell so peacefully. Jimin and Taehyung checked his chart and vitals right away while you went over to his side, wanting to touch him to make sure he was real. He was the same guy you took care of all those months ago, with the same eyes, cheeks, hidden dimples.

"He hit his head pretty hard, but he's fine now for the most part," Jimin assessed. "He's basically just asleep now until he decides to wake up."

Taehyung nodded, "If we take him out of here now, he should be okay on his own without the tubes." The three of you worked in silence and diligence to get him ready, Jimin even brought in a wheelchair. As you wheeled him to Yoongi's car, a few nurses questioned what was happening. Jimin took care of them, by winking and asking them politely to not say anything to anyone else. They all melted at his words like puppets.

"Thank you, Jimin, for everything," you smiled as Taehyung and Yoongi helped Namjoon into the car. "How can I ever repay you?"

"As long as you forgive me, that's all I need."

"You're a good person, really. Of course I forgive you, we're friends."

He beamed and gave you a quick hug before rushing back into the hospital. Once in the car, there was only one place to go that would be safe to wait for the storm.
