Chapter Fifthteen
"We found the heartbeat."
Jungkook sighed in relief with a small smile finding his lips for the first time in a while. She handed the two ends of the stethoscope to him for him to listen. Hearing how fast and loud the heartbeat was he was expecting something else.
"It's supposed to be like that?" He quietly asked.
"Most fetal heartbeats sound like that. I'm sure she'll get evaluated." Eunji replied. "Her blood pressure is skyrocketing. . ."
"What?"
"Ask her if she feels a headache or has any symptoms."
"She gets panic attacks-"
"Try to make her slow her breathing; she's hyperventilating."
They prepared a needle and when Jungkook saw it he shielded her in his arms.
"No medication. No needles." He firmly said.
"It's to calm her down some, it's safe for her and the baby." Eunji told him.
"Don't touch her!"
"Jungkook,"
Cradling her in his arms he tried ignoring the pain he felt. Leaning his head on top of hers he rocked in place.
"I want to go home." She signed, a tear coming out of her eye.
Leaning against him she bit the inside of her lip, trying to prevent her from completely breaking down.
Arriving at the hospital they were transported to a room, seperate rooms.
"Separate rooms aren't gonna work for these two. They need to be together." Eunji said. "Or he'll find a way for himself...."
"Alright." The doctor said.
Jungkook was moved across the hallway, in a bed right next to Yuris, the nurse pulled the curtains acting a separation barrier to the other side. So they were both feet away and within view.
A nurse walked up to Yuri and smiled at her before taking her vitals. Yuri just zoned out, she hated every second of it. The feeling of a stranger touching her made her nauseous.
People were all over rushing around while they catered to other people.
Looking at Jungkook, she saw the nurse go over to him and do the same. Leaning back in the bed she laid on her side facing him.
"I'm sorry Yuri." He sighed.
"Why?" She looked at him.
"I went to the police station and gave them the letter. But when the fire happened I couldn't save you."
"Don't do that to yourself. We were locked in our rooms, I know you tried. I'm okay."
Looking down he clutched his shoulder, sighing.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"I hurt my shoulder." He leaned back.
"How?"
"I was trying to get to you and tried to get the door open, I was slamming into it. Not my finest moment, but I was desperate."
She stood up and took the oxygen mask and monitor off of her. Walking over to his bed she sat next to him. Lifting his shirt so she could see his shoulder. There was a large bruise and it felt burning hot. He felt how cold her hands were from being so anxious.
"It's okay." He said to her. "It's not that bad."
He told her to go and sit on the bed and rest. The doctor came in and walked over to him first.
"Hello, my name is Jungwoo, I am going to check your airways first. Do you have any injuries besides your hand?" The doctor asked him.
"My shoulder hurts." He quietly told him.
"I'm sorry to hear, what happened to injure your shoulder?"
"Umm,"
The doctor could see his hesitation. Sitting down on the stool next to Jungkook he patiently waited.
"You can tell me anything. We're just here to help you, I can help you if you tell me what happened." Jungwoo lightened his tone.
"I hit it." Jungkook muttered.
"Okay, on what?"
"The door, I was trying to get out and I just-,"
"You don't have to go into detail if you don't want to. I'm going to lift the back of your shirt so I can see it okay?"
Already feeling really uncomfortable he slowly nodded, wincing in pain as he lifted his shirt up.
"Ah man, you got a big bruise there."
The man put on gloves and began examining the area. He pushed on it, seeing Jungkook pull away.
"Can you lift your arm?" Jungwoo asked.
"Yeah." Jungkook said.
"Reach out and push on my hands."
"Okay."
"I don't think it's broken. Possibly a bruised bone or severe hematoma, a bad bruise. We'll monitor it. I doubt you'd need X-rays-"
"No X-rays please. I don't need them. You said it's not broken, I'm fine."
"Ok, ok. I can give you a shot near your shoulder to deal with the pain if you'd like?"
"No, I'm fine."
"How about an Ice Pack?"
"Okay."
"I'll be right back."
Jungkook got up and walked over to Yuri, sitting on the bed next to her.
"What did he say?" She signed.
"Nothing, my shoulder will be okay." He replied, wrapping his arm protectively around her.
"I'm scared."
"I'm gonna take care of us."
She just nodded her head and nestled into his chest. Looking up she pushed out her lips, saying she wanted a kiss which he gladly did. Leaning in he connected their lips for a soft gentle kiss. Jungkook felt her relax in his arms. His pouty lips teasing hers.
Jungkook pulled away after hearing footsteps. The doctor walked in where his bed was and looked over to see him on Yuri's bed.
"Ah I should've known you were there." He held out the ice pack, which Jungkook gently took, and Yuri placed it on his back.
"You two use sign language?" He asked and Jungkook nodded.
"We don't have anyone here that knows it so can you translate what we say?"
"Yes."
"This is nurse Hana and I'm Jungwoo. We just want to check out you and your baby to make sure everything is okay."
Jungkook quickly signed everything and Yuri just nodded. They used the stethoscope to listen to her heart and lungs. Her rapid heartbeat was all the doctor could hear. He looked at the monitor seeing her heart rate and blood pressure rise at the stress.
"We want to check your lungs again in a few hours. For now we're going to give you medication to help calm your nerves, because your blood pressure is higher than I'd like and you should rest."
"No." Yuri signed after seeing Jungkook sign it.
"No." Jungkook said.
"What?" the doctor asked.
"She said no."
"May I ask why?"
"Yuri said she doesn't want medication."
"Okay. Both of you refuse medication. Is there a reason?" The doctor kindly questioned.
"We don't want it." Jungkook repeated, not answering the question.
Trust was the issue. Both of their lives were mostly spent only trusting each other and no one else, no matter what. Putting their lives in stranger's hands was unthinkable to them. Let alone letting them put a syringe in their arm with medication.
If Jungkook refused it Yuri would do the exact same thing.
"Okay. I listened to the baby's heartbeat and everything looked good. We're gonna get the obstetrician up here to check you and the baby out for an exam alright? That's more of their field."
He left the room and the nurse began taking care of his hand. As she dabbed it with a disinfectant it burned, feeling like acid on his hand. He bit his cheek trying to deal with the pain.
Yuri felt him tense up and got nervous looking up at him. He rubbed his other hand up and down hers trying to keep her calm.
Looking at the newer looking computer at the side of the room Yuri saw the time, it was already a little past six in the morning.
"I'm tired." She sighed.
"Go to sleep, I'll ask the lady to turn off the lights when she leaves." Jungkook replied, pulling his hand away from the nurse.
He certainly wasn't the most cooperative patient.
"Okay."
The nurse finally finished wrapping his hand. While leaving she turned off the lights after getting them another blanket.
Jungkook wrapped the blanket around them and made sure she was as comfortable as possible. She leaned her head on the pillow and intertwined her fingers with his.
