(Chapter 6) • Something Different •

Narrator's POV

 Taehyung fluttered his eyes open, and squinted them, trying to adjust to the harsh light. He was met with six familiar pair of eyes staring back at him in worry.
  He looked around in an attempt to figure out where he was, and recognized the place as the nurse's office. He sat up on the bed.

 Or at least, tried to.

 He let out a grunt of pain, flopping back on the mattress. He felt exhausted, and also in pain.

Jungkook and Jimin were the first ones to approach him, Jimin gently pushing back the hair on Taehyung's forehead with his short fingers, in an attempt to soothe his platonic soulmate. Jungkook was on the other side, holding the bruised raven haired male's hand gently, in order to not hurt him in any way.

 Taehyung glanced at Jungkook, with a slight frown on his face.  

"Jungkook..?" He muttered, confused.

 "Taehyung! You're awake! Are you okay now?" The brunet asked and exclaimed in relief, seeing that his newly made friend was awake and alright.

Well, at least close to alright.

 "Yeah, I'm okay."

He looked at his best friend at the other side and the hyungs in front of him with a raised brow.

 "How did you guys-" before he could complete his question, Hoseok answered it for him, already knowing what it was that Taehyung wanted to know.

 "All of us were already there at the gate, where we were supposed to meet up. We waited for a while, and when you guys didn't show up, we deicided to go look for you both. That's when we saw Jungkook beating the shit out of Jihun and you laying there unconscious on the floor. The other four guys seemed petrified of Kook's strength so they didn't bother stopping him, I guess."  

"You were bleeding alot.. So I carried you and rushed here. And thank god she was there, just about to leave. She just went out to grab a bit of something for you to eat." Said Namjoon, also relieved to see his dongsaeng conscious and alright.
 Taehyung smiled gratefully at the older male and nodded, mumbling a 'Thank you hyung' to him. The older just smiled back and hugged the younger.

 "We literally had to stop Kook from killing Jihun- he wouldn't stop punching that dude." Yoongi said, looking at Jungkook with wide eyes, surprised by the ruthless behaviour of the younger.  

Jungkook just sighed as Taehyung looked at him in worry. "I wouldn't want to get you in trouble because of me Jungkook-"  

"I couldn't help it, Tae.. I-It was my fault you got hurt like this, I could've stopped them from doing it, but I didn't.. I was so angry at the time and.. and couldn't hold myself back from beating the shit out of that Jihun guy, I-I'm sorry- "

 "Kook, you were held back by four guys, how were you supposed to break free from four pair of arms holding you back? So believe me when I say it's not your fault, in the least. I was really surprised when you did break free at last- how'd you even do that?" Taehyung said in amazement with a wide rectangular smile.

 Jungkook just smiled sadly and let out a humourless chuckle, "I guess I just snapped. I don't know, but I couldn't bear seeing you hurt like that, you didn't even do anything wrong so..-"

 "Uhhhh... Sorry to interrupt, but can we finally get an explanation on what was happening at that time? What was going on? Why were you hurt like that, Tae?" Seokjin asked in a slightly demanding tone.

After all, He was worried, curious and angry about this whole situation.

 Worried because Tae was almost seriously hurt, curious as to why and how this all happened, and angry at the guy who'd even think of hurting Taehyung, to the point of making him pass out from pain and bleed.
Safe to say that everyone present in the room (except for the two boys who were in this mess), were feeling the same way about the situation.
