"lucas?" taehyung gasped in disbelief as the other came into his view.
it has been couple of days since he has seen the other so he was craving for his company since then.
he missed lucas. he missed his no jam jokes, his absurd kinda romantic advices and just his precious presence as a person in taehyung's life.
"what happened to your face?" taehyung proceeded to gash as he scanned the scathed skin of the latter. there were purple bruises and mild cuts with a couple of stitches.
lucas was quite limping due to the magnitude of pain that jimin had caused him. he is sure that the other was engraged knowing that he escaped. the probability of jimin had sent out his men to hunt him was massive.
but lucas made sure that he was well hidden for a couple of days before stepping up and doing the gesture that he's been trying to do so to taehyung, ever since he met him.
lucas settled at the end of taehyung's hospital bed, afraid to even meet the concern face that taehyung was giving him- he was guilty.
he drew a deep breath, "taehyung.." his voice cracks, "i-im sorry.."
with that, tears started to well up on lucas' bruised up eyes. he was crying so hard. head's faced down as he let his emotions and his tears eat him up.
taehyung was alarmed at the sight infront of him so with every energy he left on his body, he crawled towards lucas, kneeled and engulfed the other in a comforting hug.
he could feel how tense the other was on his lithe arms, he didn't know but he also felt like crying- so he just did that.
he cried on lucas' shaking shoulder, letting his emotions and tiredness consume him.
everything became so overwhelming the past few days and taehyung couldn't find himself to breathe and sleep properly.
lucas abruptly stopped when he heard taehyung's sobs, "tae? why are you crying? what is it?" he croaked out, voice hoarse from his previous action.
but instead of responding, taehyung found himself crying even more.

"so.. how have you been?" taehyung started, sounding tired than ever as he and lucas' sat on the hospital bed, side by side.
"by the way, im still kind of upset about you not responding to my calls and texts. heck, you weren't even in the dorms! i was worried about you." taehyung nagged as nudged the other continuously.
lucas felt a pang of guilt adding up to the guilt that was already in his body.
"taehyung.. im really sorry-"
"lucas," taehyung warned in a threatening voice, "you've been apologizing to me for the past hour, just spill it."
lucas sighed before turning to look at taehyung, "i was ordered to kill you."
there, he said it. he just need to add a little more and another geniune apology. ofcourse, he won't expect taehyung to look at him like he used to before, call him his friend or even talk to him.
lucas waited for awhile for taehyung's reaction, expecting the other to slap him kr scream at him and order him to go away but the other only frowned, furrowing his eyebrows, "elaborate please."
"w-well.." lucas started in shaky breaths, "my.. my father is sick and i needed some money. jimin proposed an idea and i accepted it immediately as i was desperate to get the money. he didn't really get into the details about the idea until i've already spent it on my father's hospital bills.. he asked me to poison you."
