Broken Me (BM of Kard)

*** REWIND 2 HOURS ***

KIM SEOKJIN'S P.O.V.

I sat in the waiting room with someone I hadn't seen in many years and, to take his mind off the person he'd come in with, I talked to him about things that had been going on in our lives since we'd seen each other last which was during his last year of high school. This lead to Hoseok bawling his eyes out about how he knew Jimin and what he'd done to the person who had trusted him the most - his best friend and how he'd turned against him in order to protect himself but it'd only left deeper scars because he had believed his best friend was dead...

Until last night.

After Jung Hoseok had worn himself out and fell asleep across the hard plastic seats I saw a very beautiful man walk in, looking around for someone. Our gazes locked and I swear my heart stopped. He kept looking around but when he started walking in my direction I waved, his step faltering a little but he continued my way. Stopping in front of Hoseok he looked relieved. I held out a hand and introduced myself, "Hi, I'm Kim Seokjin, if you want you can call me later." I slapped my hand over my mouth as I felt my face flame up with embarrassment. He laughed and as I stared in wonder I noticed he had dimples on both cheeks. "You're beautiful."

It was his turn to blush. "Uh, thanks? I guess." He responded to my thought. "Did I say that out loud?" I asked him, my mouth had run away without my brain, no filter it seemed. He grasped my hand in a firm handshake, "Hi later, I'm Kim Namjoon. If you want you can call me yours." He winked with a grin that displayed his dimples again and I felt my mouth go dry. "Is this guy for real? He's going to kill me with his dimpled smile, I think I need to sit down." Namjoon smiled at me again and indicated to the seat. "Have a seat, Seokjin. You look like you could use a glass of water? Would you like me to get you some water, or my phone number?" My face flamed up and I thought I was going to die. "Uh, both? Are you real? I'm not imagining you am I? Maybe this is-" Namjoon's laughter interrupted my train of thoughts and I heard a familiar laughter join him.

"Hi, I'm Kim Taehyung, you can just call me Tae, I'm Jin's almost brother-in-law. And you are?" Taehyung introduced himself to Namjoon. He'd brought a box with him that contained a huge fresh breakfast for all of us to share, a large vanilla latte, a caramel macchiato and a few bottles of water. We ate and chatted a little bit, getting to know Namjoon and him learning about us. The sleeping male on the seats to the side of us roused with the smell of food. Taehyung giggled and poked Hoseok a few times. "Who are you, mister sleepy head? Joonie says you're his friend so you can't be all that bad." The red head rubbed his puffy eyes slowly, his brain reminding him he is in the hospital. "You have no idea," he mumbled, "I'm Jung Hose-" His introduction was interrupted by a blue haired nurse.

"Family of Jeon Jeongguk?" Jin and I stood up abruptly, moving toward the nurse. "How's my brother? Is he awake? Can I see him now? Did his surgery go well?" The nurse held up a hand to stop Jin. "Slow down. First, I'm Min Yoongi and I'm his primary nurse for the duration of his stay. I'll answer your questions in a moment but first I need to speak to his boyfriend, a Kim Taehyung?" he looked at me, "that's you, yes?" Taehyung shook his head, "No, it's me! So, what's up Doc?" Min Yoongi snickered at the reference to his favourite Warner Bros. character, Bugs Bunny. The nurse whispered something in Taehyung's ear and his eyes went as round as saucers, watering up as he shoved a fist in his mouth. "A-a-are y-you for real? Like, really f-for really se-serious?" "Up the elevator to the third floor, room 316." Called Min Yoongi before the younger took off like a bat out of hell.

"What did you say that set his pants on fire?" I asked the blue haired nurse who motioned for me to follow him, "Let's walk and talk," he started, I looked around at Namjoon. "Hold on just a moment, uh, do you have a pen I can borrow?" The short nurse looked behind me and snickered, pulling a pen from his breast pocket and handed it to me. "Sure, I'll wait. Why don't you give him a smooch goodbye?" He was probably being sarcastic but I laughed anyway, thinking it wouldn't be a terrible idea if I could be brave enough to kiss him because he was absolutely gorgeous. I walked back to Namjoon and motioned for him to hold out his hand. I took his hand in mine, enjoying the feel of his work roughened hands as I pulled up his sleeve a little and wrote my contact number on his arm along with 6 words; Hey Mine, call me Later. Jin <3

Scrounging every ounce of courage I could find, I leaned over and quickly placed a kissed on his cheek before practically running away, Jeongguk's nurse looked like his face would split in half with the cheshire cat-like grin upon his lips and the pretty laugh falling from his mouth. "I honestly didn't think you'd actually do it," he laughed. Setting a brisk and steady pace Min Yoongi started towards the elevator and ward Jeongguk had been settled in, he updated me on how my brother was doing.

Nurse Yoongi also told me we must keep our volume down when we visited because there was someone occupying the second bed in Jeongguk's room who needed much peace and quiet to recover. He apologized that while my brother wasn't going to be in a single room like I'd asked (Jeongguk had demanded) but there would only be one other patient and my brother had already given permission as long as he could have his boyfriend come and visit whenever he wanted. The other patient had apparently agreed to the bargain.

I rolled my eyes, "Sure sure, Kook just wants peace to make out with his boyfriend and not to have others complain about it!" I ranted a little and the nurse laughed with me. "Yeah," he agreed, "that was pretty much why I got Taehyung to go ahead so I could talk to you alone. I have instructions to let you know that if you see your brothers room-mate you are not to mention his name or his appearance or his presence to anyone. We are under very strict orders to keep their identity confidential. My job is on the line so it's vital this information does not leave the room. You won't be permitted to visit your brother without supervision if you can't agree." The nurses grey eyes pleading with me to understand his position. "I understand. I won't say a word." I readily agreed.

We were almost at his room when we heard loud, rambunctious laughter from Taehyung and Jeongguk. I looked at the nurse and frowned, my steps hurrying up and as I walked in I shouted at them, "HEY! You're supposed to be being quiet so your roommate can recover without all your shenanigans." They both jumped and looked at me guiltily. "Sorry Jin!" "Sorry Jin!" The pair chorus at me. I huffed, "It's not me you ought to apologize to. It's your roommate." Nurse Yoongi interrupted me with a hand on my arm, speaking quietly but firmly to all of us.

"The other patient is still in an induced coma, but he may be able to hear you. The hospital will appreciate if you can keep your voices down. Jeongguk, we spoke about this earlier so you know better. I'll let you know that our agreement from earlier will be void should you break your side of our agreement." He looked sternly at my brother who looked down to hide his red face. "Sorry." Jeongguk mumbled, "I'll be more quiet." His nurse nodded in satisfaction. Looking at me he said, "You have a good brother, Seokjin." I smiled, "Yeah, most of the time. Except when he, you know, goes to a party, gets into a fight, ends up in hospital..." My eyebrow quirking up while I looked at him.
