It's been nearly a week since the phone call and it seems that Jungkook has gone radio silent. He stopped messaging, deactivated his Instagram, and the school seemed to let him go fully online as long as he doesn't set foot on campus. Yoongi felt frustrated and sad that he never told Jungkook how he felt and that he had a heavy heart if since his phone call and Jungkook's message. Yoongi texted one single sentence: I just want to talk to you.
Jungkook didn't respond which saddened Yoongi but he finally went out of his apartment and took in the fresh air and sunlight. It was such a peaceful day as Yoongi sat at a park bench looking at children running wild and hearing their joyous screaming. Faces painted with these bright faces. They seemed to be such carefree little humans and Yoongi longed to be carefree and avoid responsibility.
Yoongi felt his phone vibrating: once, twice, and even a third time.
Fishing his phone and looking to find three messages from Hoseok. Yoongi thought it was about some stupid meme he found when he opened up the messages.
Jung Hoseok hyung this is urgent
Jung Hoseok fuck I don't know what happen
Jung Hoseok meet me at blue side hospital
Reading hospital shot a type of worry through Yoongi. He immediately dialed Hoseok's number as he rushed out of the park to the other side of town.
Hearing the rings left Yoongi impatient as he heard the ringing until he heard a soft and watery 'hyung.'
"Hobi, is everything okay? Are you hurt? Is Seokjin-hyung okay?" All the words rushed out of Yoongi's mouth as his breathing became harsher and harsher.
"We're fine, we're fine...just, it's Jungkook." Yoongi could tell Hoseok was barely keeping it together, but for Yoongi, everything froze. He finally stopped running as he tried to catch his breath.
"Jungkook? Wha—what happened?"
"I don't know hyung but he seemed pretty beat up when the ambulance took him." Yoongi didn't even know what happen. Everything around him became a blur as Yoongi felt his body just move. Every now and again, he would feel pressure against his shoulder and he nearly tripped over his own two feet.
Yoongi felt wetness on his cheeks but he paid it no mind as his harsh panting filled his ears and his mind kept on thinking Jungkook Jungkook Jungkook. Yoongi didn't even realized that he ran across town as he stood in front of Blue Side Hospital. Rushing in as he frantically looked around to see Hoseok curled up on Seokjin's lap.
The closer Yoongi got, the more he could see Hoseok's disheavled appearance. Hair sticking go out in odd directions with dried tear tracks staining his tannish cheeks.
"Hyung—hyung what happened?" Yoongi tried to sound calm but the break in his voice betrayed him along with his harsh panting coming down to steady breaths as he also was twiddling with his fingers.
Seokjin tapped the chair next to him as he looked down at the sleeping Hoseok. Seokjin seemed to wait until Yoongi's breaths became more stable when he gave a soft sigh. "He was in a car accident, Yoongichi. He walked in front of a car that couldn't break in time."
"Why would he do that?" Confusion laced Yoongi's voice as he looked into Seokjin's eyes.
"I thought the same thing." Seokjin took a deep breath before continuing. "I mean...it was odd. Hobi saw him stumbling from an alley. His jeans were spattered in red as his face was busted. We—we tried to run up to him and kept calling his name, but—" Seokjin wanted to choose his words carefully. "It was like he didn't hear us and then we noticed he was in the middle of the road and next thing we know, we heard this honking and this horrible crack."
Yoongi was in deep thought we he heard "but it was before the crash that made me want to tear apart the world."
"Huh?"
"The—the doctor said that someone sprayed acid in his face and that he was sexually assaulted."
Yoongi immediately froze as the word sexual assault and acid clouded his mind. Who would want to hurt Jungkookie? This—this is extreme. How much has been hurting? While I was being a lovesick fool and not noticing how much Jungkookie was in pain...These thoughts made Yoongi sick when a soft voice spoke.
"Jungkook's awake."
