It became something conventional. Something repeated like a routine for him to be met with different looking ceiling every now and then. The first seconds of being woken by the forgotten events before this, was the different colored ceilings looking down at him

It felt strange everytime, always having the first thought in his mind being if he was alive right now or just laying peacefully in his deathbed.

But even though it became something usual for him and his closest ones beside him, he was still having the unwanted scared feeling deep in his heart

They didn't understand how scary it was waking up everytime in his once comfortable bed, not remembering what had happened and why there were concerned eyes staring down at him.

He was scared to know that one day maybe he won't be seeing the ceiling, he won't be seeing his closest by his  bed, the happy relief leaving their heart when they see he's open eyes staring back at theirs

He couldn't help but have that constant feeling that he hated so much, despised to be more exact. Everyday and what felt like seconds  he was scared to be woken up like that again

But he didn't tell anyone, to afraid to bother them with more concern with his constant fears of never being able to see them again

So he kept it locked inside, cause as long as he do that everyone will believe he's going to be fine

He wished he would believe it himself

The clock ticking was bothering his thoughts as he was laid underneath the white covers in his bed. He had woken up a couple hours ago, being surrounded by his friends and Jimin familiar warm embrace

They had stayed with him for a while, staying by his side while the clock was passing away. In the end he's constant thought was screaming at him to let the others leave him and go have fun with the others at the camp

So he told them to go, that he was going to be alright by himself. Convincing them that he was more at ease alone, that he would fall into a deep slumber faster if they were to have fun and leave him under his cold sheets alone

They did

After what felt like an hour of arguments, they finally accepted what he wanted and left with a warm hearted smile through the door

But it wasn't what he wanted

He's heart was longing for someone to stay by his side, because he was afraid of being left alone In an empty room, constant thoughts about being drowned in an never ending sleep. Never being able to open his eyes again

But what his heart wanted didn't matter. He loved his friends to much to let them stay with him, seeing their smile drop with every second they were to see his state. He couldn't handle it no mater what

So he let them go, against his heart

He let them go, because he promises to stay awake until they come back
