"Hyung, I- I lost Jungkook"
-

"You what?!" Jin shouted as he jumped from the couch. Hoseok was pacing back and forth while Namjoon continued to call the younger member.

"I- I fell asleep after cuddling with him and when I woke up he was missing," Hoseok spoke. At the verge of crying. What worried Hoseok the most was it was pouring outside and Jungkook doesn't have his coat with him.

"I'll come and pick you up. Tell Namjoon to stay in the ward in case he comes back." Jin spoke. , Grabbing his umbrella, coat and car keys.

Jin rushed to the garage and hopped into his car. Driving to the hospital. Hoseok rushed inside the black car. His hands shaking as he clutches on Jungkook's black coat.

Jim drove down the quiet streets and parks. Squinting through the thick rain that was blocking most of his view.

Hoseok eyes widen as he made Jin stop the car. Grabbing the umbrella that Jin brought. Jungkook stood in the middle of the street while sobbing. Drenched in the rain. Hoseok noticed the wound on his leg and the bruises on his body.

Hoseok pulled the younger member in relief. Letting a sigh of relieve.

"Don't scare me like that..." Hoseok breathes out. Hugging the member tightly. Hoseok placed his coat on him. Before guiding him back to the car. Jungkook sat the back. Shivering.

"Please...don't bring me back to there." Jungkook sobbed. Hoseok held his hand. Flashing him a soft smile.

"We'll get you home. Don't worry. Okay?" Hoseok comforted. Receiving a nod from the younger male.

Jungkook had a bath. He was now seated on his bed with Jin drying his hair while Hoseok treats his wounds.

"You fell? This seems more like you've for beaten up." Yoongi muttered. Examining the younger member.

"Just tell us the truth," Hoseok muttered while packing the supplies back into the box.

"I got beaten up..." Jungkook mumbled. His eyes held no emotions as he said that.
"I bumped against two thugs while walking and they started beating me up," Jungkook spoke. Jin shook his head. Hanging the towel on the drying rack.

Jin was angry that Jungkook left without telling the members but he didn't want to start scolding the younger member when he doesn't know why the younger member did what he did.

"I have to head back to the hospital. Update me for anything." Hoseok said. Ruffling Jungkook's hair before leaving his room. Yoongi too left. Leaving Jin alone with him.

"Why did you run away?" Jin asked. Jungkook kept his head low as he bit his like nervously. He didn't know how to tell the older member what he felt.

"I don't want to be there," Jungkook spoke after a while. Jin frown slightly, not sure what the younger member meant.

"I don't want to be there," Jungkook repeated. Eyes getting teary. Jin held the member's hand. Rubbing his thumb at the back of the younger's hands. Jin finally understood what he meant.

"Why did you lie...you told me he was okay. Why did you lie?" Jungkook cried. Jin let out a soft sigh. Gently pulling the member into his embrace.

"I'm sorry...okay? I was trying to comfort you. But the doctors did tell me he is okay Jungkook. He'll be okay." Jin muttered. Patting the member's hair.

The days passed, at 5a.m, Jin was seated at the counter with 3 empty cans of beer scattered around him. Yoongi woke up to get himself some water. Seeing Jin in that state. Jin had his head on the table. Eyes half-closed.

"Go inside hyung. You need to sleep." Yoongi muttered. He wasn't surprised seeing Jin in that state. Yoongi would join him but he had to wake up tomorrow and drive to the hospital since he and Taehyung were taking over the other two to take care of Jimin.

"Pass me another 2 cans," Jin muttered. Rubbing his eyes. Yoongi shook his head. Grabbing them empty cans and throwing it into the bin and getting himself some water.

Yoongi leaned against the counter. Looking at Jin as he whines. "It must be hard for you too," Yoongi spoke. Placing the glass on the table. Jin may seem like he got a lot in control but inside he was probably worried too. He was in a mess with his own emotions. Knowing that made Yoongi feel bad.

"It's hard for us but it's harder on you..." Yoongi sighed. Picking up the water and sipping it. Yoongi rinses the glass he was using before patting the older by his shoulders.

"Let's go," Yoongi muttered. Jin stood up. Wobbling slightly. Yoongi held him by his arm leading him to his room. Jin plopped on his bed. Immediately falling asleep. Yoongi closed the door. Dragging his feet as he made his way to his room.

Jin woke up the next day with the biggest headache. He forced his eyes open as he looked over at the digital clock placed on the ni1 posted beside his bed.

1pm

He shot up from his bed. He promised Yoongi that he will drive him to the hospital even though Yoongi declined the offer a million times. He left his bed and went to the living room, Namjoon and Hoseok on the dining table having soup.

"Finally awake?" Hoseok said as he noticed his presence. Jin scanned the room.

"Yoongi and Taehyung left?" Jin asked. Namjoon nodded. Jin went to grab himself a cup of water. Jungkook headed down the stairs whilst limping. He was all washed up but was wearing his hoodie and track pants.

"I'm going to the convenient store," Jungkook said as he left the dorm. Jin realised that he was last to wake up.

"Who cooked?" Jin asked as he sat on the dining table together with the other two.

"Yoongi hyung," Namjoon responded. Jin felt bad. Yoongi too must've been the one who told him to head back into his room when he was drunk. Jin head up to his room and searched for his phone only for it to ring. Jin rushed to it.

I.D caller: TaeTae

"Hello?" Jin answered. He was responded with a sob.

"H-hyung....get me out of here," Taehyung sobbed
