Hoseok drove as fast as his car allowed him. It didn't matter to him how reckless and insane he looked in everyone's eyes, or how much he would be charged for putting himself and those around him in hazard. He just needed to get to his baby brother who "desperately" needed him there.

He made sure to get Joohyun's... NO! Jooheon's phone number and viceversa before leaving, just in case either of them had concerns regarding Changkyun.

When the man had parked his car in the hospital building, he didn't want to waste his time waiting for the elevator so he took a deep breath and started running up the stairs to the seventh damn floor. Once he arrived there, he leaned against the wall for a few seconds to catch his breath before walking into the waiting room of the floor where he would find his brother.

It was not hard, though. The waiting room was relatively empty and the recognizable voice from Minhyuk could be heard due to the echo. However, Minhyuk was talking... with who? The man in front of Minhyuk was tall and with long hair, Hoseok couldn't see his face but he seemed familiar...

When the man opened his mouth to defend himself from Minyuk's scolding, Wonho ran over standing in front of them both. "Hyungwon, what are you doing here?? Are you hurt??"

Hyungwon looked away from Hoseok and rubbed the back of his neck to comfort himself, he looked embarrassed and... guilty.

The man turned to search for answers in Minhyuk who looked livid. His eyebrows were furrowed and his upper lip was curled upwards in disgust and his arms were trembling from how tightly he was holding his shirt as a stress canalyser. "No, he is not hurt. Kihyun on the other hand..."

Just when he was about to snap, a nurse stepped out of the glass doors that gave entrance to the emergency room. "Mister Lee Minhyuk?" All the anger that was consuming the man flushed away as his face was taken over by concern. "That's me."

The nurse nodded and checked her papers, "Yoo Kihyun is awake."

Minhyuk couldn't help but tear up at the news. Kihyun had been unconscious since he found him on the floor on top of all those broken pieces of glass, outside of an excuse of a house. "Want me to wait for you so we can go back together?" Minhyuk nodded and followed the nurse into the room Kihyun was supposed to be in.

"Ki?... oh my GOD, Kihyun you're okay." As he walked in the nurse closed the door, muttering something he couldn't understand. Not like he cared anyway, Kihyun was more important than anything right now.

"Minhyuk, I-" Kihyun was not allowed to keep talking as a loud groan escaped his lips. It was painful.

Minhyuk then realised that Kihyun was not okay. He didn't look or sound okay, so he just sat on the chair next to the hospital bed his boyfriend was laying on. "It's okay, Kihyun. You don't have to talk."

He took one of his hands to place it on the cheek that was apparently untouched and ran his thumb across it.

His baby... his sweet, sweet baby. The state Kihyun was in was heartbreaking; his eyes were barely open, he had a cloth covering his cheek and it was already stained with blood. His arms were bruised and his breathing was hard...

And it was all Minhyuk's fault.

Kihyun seemed to have found comfort in Minhyuk's touch and leaned his face more into his hand, his eyes slowly closing. Minhyuk was starting to panic for the second time that evening, but his worries disappeared when Kihyun started to hum a soft, but sweet, melody.

Moments later, the same nurse stepped back into the hospital room with the papers that seemingly were Kihyun's. "Mister Yoo." At the sound of his last name, the man lifted his head and looked over to the woman. "You broke two ribs and dislocated your left shoulder. You also have some cuts on your face, arms, legs and all over your back. But don't worry, they are light and will not scar."

Both Minhyuk and Kihyun nodded at the nurse's words, showing their understanding. The nurse continued: "You will need to stay here for about a week because you did hit your head very hard and we need to do daily checkups just in case."

As the injured man nodded, the nurse left again and Kihyun leaned back into Minhyuk's careful and loving touch. "The camera... it's broken." Poor Kihyun injured himself for nothing. It shattered his heart into a million pieces to know that he had failed Minhyuk. "Even if we took what I saw to court, they wouldn't believe us without proof and it's.." he gulped down his tears, "gone..."

...

He knew he shouldn't have left Kihyun for himself.

When he received the call from the hospital, Yoongi couldn't help but feel kind of responsible for his best friend's injuries. The receptionist never specified the cause of Kihyun's broken bones, but it was obviously either a car crash or him being idiotic by himself.

'What a fucking idiot.' he thought as drove towards the building. The man sighed as he parked his car outside, knowing how expensive the minute was in the hospital's parking lot.

A few moments later of desperation, he was already in the waiting room, rushing up to what he thought was a nurse. "I'm here to check up on Yoo Kihyun." It was stressful but he stayed there, waiting for the woman to reply to him. "I'm sorry, there can only be three people maximum in the room with him. You can help me fill out this form while they come out."

Huh? Three people? How the hell did Kihyun know more than three people? Yoongi knew Kihyun would never tell his parents or siblings about something like this, knowing how worried they would be, so it couldn't be his family, friends?... neh.

Kihyun had spoken to him about a Chae Hyungwon, but if he was not stupid, that's only one person, so who were the other two?

He finished giving his information and just as he was going to stand up and give the paper to the nurse, he saw three men coming out of the Intensive Care Unit to the waiting room. He took a better look at the people and managed to recognize Lee Minhyuk, who wouldn't? He's everywhere in the news and articles because he's always doing something 'sweet' for the children.

The nurse nodded at Yoongi for him to proceed. So Kihyun is friends with Lee Minhyuk? That's strange...

He handed the paper to the woman and walked into the room where he was told Kihyun was in and holy shit. His friend looked pitiful, his scratched face, his tired state... What an idiot. "Kihyun, what the hell happened to you??"

The man slowly looked up at him, grimacing at the evident pain he was going through. "I fell down..." Yoongi sighed and shook his head, taking a seat next to his friend. "I shouldn't have let you leave the apartment... Does it hurt a lot, want me to come here every day? I can ask for days off! just-"

He was cut off by his tired friend who chuckled quietly, shaking his head. "Yoongi, it's okay. The nurses will take enough care of me, don't worry..."

-

Jooheon had already left (with a very generous tip from Minhyuk) and now the father was sitting down on the couch, Kihyun never leaving his mind. It was his fault for not making sure he was safe before hand, for not finding him sooner. The nurses told him he would be okay, but he knew Kihyun would have very nasty scars after this for the rest of his life.

And to add to his suffering, his phone rang in his pocket. "Hyunwoo! Tell me you have good news."

A sigh was heard... this was awful. "You have a good lawyer, right?"
