Cuts || Taekook [ Finished ]

14

three years later

my feet dragged me to the hospital. it had been two days since jeongguk was taken into the hospital. i had slept with him in the hospital bed, and had gone out to buy him some chocolates and a plushie i thought was cute.

i stepped into the elevator, and pressed the button to the eleventh floor, the one where all the cancerpatients are.

i sighed when the doors shove to the side, and i was met with the yellowish collour of this floor. i remember jeongguk laughing softly at the yellow walls, saying he'd be close to me all the time. the yellow collour reminding him of me.

i walked through the stuffy smelling aisle, and towards jeongguks room. number 1708.

i pushed down the doorhandle, and then the door. it squeeked open and my eyes fell down on a sleeping miracle. i sighed but smiled a little.

i walked closer and checked the youngers monitors, his heartbeat and breathing still steady. i exhaled in relief, and softly put the just bought plushie on the youngers bed.

he groaned a little before his eyes fluttered open. "taetae." he said, a smile now on his face.

i let my eyes scan his face, his hairs all gone now, and his skin pale. no more eyebrow or lashes that i loved so much. no more sign of life in his lips that once were so beautiful red.

a tear dripped down my eye as i stared at him. he smiled softly, a worried look on his face. i wiped my eyes and inhaled deeply. "sorry kookie.." i mumbled as i broke my stare.

jeongguk smiled and nodded. "it's fine." his voice was no longer his voice. it was now nothing more than a quiet whisper. a whisper formed from sighes.

i slowly walked closer to what was left of my boyfriend. "fuck jeongguk.. what am i going to do without you, ggukkie.. i can't have you gone.. i need you.."

"i-i will never r-really leave you.. taehyung.." he let his eyes down. "i've fought this for o-over 5 years.. i-i'm tired, i'm h-hurt.. le-let me go.." he spoke with all the strength he had left.

"no.. jeongguk i could never.. you must stay strong baby.. y-you must." i felt tears come up again.

the door of jeongguks room flew open, about four doctors coming in and pushing me aside. the monitor had stopped beeping. his eyes were closing and his chest no longer raised like it always had done.

"NO! NO! JEONGGUK! NO!" a doctor held me away from my dying boyfriend, tears not holding back anymore. i saw jeongguks eyes roll towards me, conecting with mine.

his lips parted and he mouthed, "i love you, taehyung." before his eyes rolled into the back of his head, and their lids closed as his bed was rolled out of the room.

i crashed to the floor, hand in my heads as i kept screaming his name, but he would no longer respond.

he would never respond anymore.
