Long Odds-Vhope

Chapter 25

Thank you guys for waiting this patiently

Love you all who are still reading it

Namjoon wakes up and the first thing he does is wince in pain due to his cut which was left open by him last night, he remembers the happenings of yesterday and he feels his heart shattering, he can't really understand where everything went haywire, they were so beautiful before but now it feels like they are two strangers sharing a house. He feels a lump forming in his throat which he gulps and goes to the washroom to freshen up. Once he was done he walks out of his room expecting it to be all empty and silent but he was surprised when he sees Jungkook sitting on the floor leaning on the wall next to his room, his eyes closed and his hands were clutching the First Aid box and he was still in the clothes from last night and Namjoon's heart shatters when he sees the tear stains on his kookie's face.

He kneels down in front of him and he tries really hard to control his tears, he has missed him so much that it feels like he was all alone all this time and those beautiful years were just a dream. He forwards his hand and moves away the bangs covering kookie's forehead and that's when his eyes go wide, he was burning.

"Kookie! Kookie!" Namjoon panic call but all he got in return was a small whimper and an in audible "hyung"

Without thinking of his injured hand he lifts Jungkook in his arms which results in his wound to start bleeding again but he ignores that and takes him to his room and lies him down in his bed.

Namjoon was about to go and call the doctor but Jungkook holds onto his hand and mutters something which Namjoon was not able to understand so he comes near him

"what is it baby?" Namjoon asks not stopping himself from saying the last part

"don't l-leave me h-hyung" and a lone tear escapes Jungkook's eye which Namjoon wipes the instant it comes out

"hyung is not leaving kookie, hyung will never leave his baby ever" Namjoon says as softly as possible as this state of his kookie was shattering him

Hearing that a choked sob leaves jungkook's mouth and Namjoon just gathers his kookie and hugs him and Jungkook tries to hug him back with his weak limbs as tight as possible

"d-don't h-hate me hyung, p-please, don't hate m-me" saying that Jungkook goes limp in namjoon's hands which panics Namjoon and he calls the doctor.

"he has been suffering through a lot of stress and I don't think he has been eating that well" the doctors says to Namjoon who was now getting his hand bandaged by the nurse

"has he been eating his meals properly?" doctor asks for which Namjoon had no answer as it has been quite some time since they have had any meal together

"I really don't know, he has been staying out late these days" Namjoon replies and goes and sits next to a sleeping Jungkook as his wound was bandaged

"hmmm, I have given him medicine and his fever must go down but he needs rest, physically and mentally" the doctor says stressing on the last part

"yes doctor, thank you so much" Namjoon says genuinely

"and you need to change your dressing everyday otherwise it will get infected, good thing, none of the stitches got opened" Doctors says for which Namjoon just nods

"I'll take a leave now, call me if you need me" with that the doctor leaves with the nurse and Namjoon hears the front door lock with a click

He turns to the pale Jungkook on the bed and he forwards his hand to push away the bangs covering his sweaty forehead.
