Tears streamed out of my eyes without a break and I couldn't still my shivering hands and feet. I bit my lip as guilt washed over me.
Jungkook died because of me. He died because I didn't stop him. I let him mark me inspite of knowing the consequences. It's all just me.
What would I even tell his parents? What would I tell mine? What should I tell the boys?
I sobbed into my hands as I covered my mouth with them. "Kookie.." I called out, pain crushing my heart.
"My name is Eun hee"
"huh?" I turned towards the curly haired girl who spoke. The nurses weren't even in the ward anymore.
"Its Eun hee. I want you to know that" She said before placing both her hands on Jungkook's feet.
"What're you doing?" I asked, my voice breaking as another sob threatened to slip out.
She took in a deep breath, tightening her grip around his fee and asked me to step away from him, which I quickly did. Her lips trembled as if due to severe cold when she recited something..again in the same language that I didn't recognize.
I watched closely, my eyes moving from her to Jungkook, making me want to cry out loud but I tried my best not to.
A few seconds more and she slumped forward, and the room fell darker. The lights went off on their own and the blinders closed off on their own accord making me gasp.
"Eun hee.." I called out and she looked up at me, her pupils turning a shade of grey and then to white. Brown irises surrounding the milk white pupil made her look terrifying and I gulped at the sight. Her hair slowly turned brown and I spoke out again, "stop", my voice barely a whisper and my brain not even registering what I was saying.
"This is it.." She said and that's when she started becoming one with the dark. There was barely any light in the ward. The only source of it being the machines that had red and green dots on them. The girl became more and more invisible and I stepped closer to her.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked in a hurry. She was going away, disappearing into the darkness around us.
"Because Taehyung asked me to" She smiled a painful smile. I was beyond confused at this point, but there was nothing I could do.
"What do you mean?" I questioned.
"My mate died right after we got married" She started, her eyes fixing on the grey, colorless mark on her wrist, "I don't even know why I am alive, still" She smiled making my eyes widen. Marriage? Mate? She's a wolf too? She seemed to be too young for anything!
"What the fuck? Stop whatever you're doing Eun hee! " I yelled, too afraid to touch her as her penetrating eyes stared me down, "you will die".
"I agreed to help Taehyung because I don't want you to go through what I went through" She smiled again , "I don't want anybody to go through this".
"This is how you planned to save Jungkook?" I asked.
"Not really. I thought he'd respond to the electric shock because his heart stopped due to one." She took in a deep breath, her voice getting deeper and deeper as she spoke through gritted teeth, "this is the plan now, I guess. I want you to be happy".
"I don't even know you Eun hee. You don't have to do all this. Just-" I couldnt ask her to let go of Jungkook and let him die.. I also couldn't ask her to kill herself for us. I was torn on what I should be saying.
"Make it last.." She smiled one last time.
"Eun-" I started but her body rocked forward once before she fell back onto the ground.
I rushed forward, running around the bed to help the girl, but when I got closer, I realised that there was no girl. She wasn't there. The sound of her falling onto the ground was clear in my head but there was no body. I looked around for the girl but she was nowhere.
I cleared my throat and wiped a tear, preparing to call out for her and that's when I heard my own name.
"Chae.." the voice, sweet as honey to my ears.
"Jungkook!" My head whipped to the side, shock traveling up my spine and my trembling hands coming to a complete halt for a split second as my eyes landed on the dead boy who was brought back to life.
"Jungkookie!" I cried, placing my hands on his cheek as he looked up at me, very much alive and breathing.
"You're alive" I mumbled, "You're alive, Jungkook".
"Yeah.." He took in shallow, silent breaths, his eyes fixed on my face as I looked down at him, with my cheeks stained with tears and mascara, my hair a mess, and my eyes swollen and red.
He smiled at the sight and I only cried more before leaning down and pressing my lips against his forehead, "Thank God, you're alive!".
The boy reached out to pull me down until my lips were against his. The warmth of his lips felt like home and I tried so hard not to break down completely and collapse onto him for much needed support and love.
" I love you" I cried the moment we parted an inch.
"Did you miss me?" He asked, making me nod with tear filled eyes. His smile widened into a bunny grin, making my heart swell and the adrenaline levels in my blood drop.
"My cheeks hurt" he rubbed his face.
I blushed as I bit the insides of my cheek, "probably because I slapped you".
"You slapped me?" His eyes widened.
"Yep"
"Why?"
"What do you mean why? You were dead. You can't leave me and go away like that!" I justified my actions.
The room lightened up again, the blinders doing very little to block the sunlight that was now all over the ward making it look yellow, white and bright.
Jungkook sat up, smirking to himself and I let my hands stay on his body, his skin getting warmer by the second till it reached the normal temperature. He sighed deeply and that's when my eyes traveled to the other side of his neck. A small glow drew my attention to his side. The tattoo on his neck glowed to all its glory, a shade of golden and red.
"Your- " I stuttered, "tattoo..".
Jungkook looked over to his side, noticing that the mark he wanted to glow so badly was now glowing like a star on his skin. He grinned wide, his eyes glistening due to tears and the sun light seeping through the blinders and falling on him.
His arms circled around me and I instinctively stepped closer, wanting nothing more than him.
"Finally.." He mumbled, leaning forward until our foreheads were against one another.
He looked so happy to be back, I couldn't be happier. I watched his eyes get smaller as he smiled wide, bunny teeth in full display, his hair over his forehead and messy, his cheeks tainted a shade of pink to top it all off. I couldn't ask for more. The curse was lifted. Jungkook's tattoo was glowing.
"Finally.." I repeated, a smile forming on my face as I leaned in close, pecking his lips in a sweet kiss.
When we pulled apart, Kook spoke, "We will get you a similar tattoo, and that will glow too " he winked.
" Yes boss" I pecked his nose.
" Where's the girl?" He asked when I pulled away.
After a few seconds of silence, "Gone" I answered.
He furrowed his brows and I continued, "she died saving you".
Jungkook's face remained emotionless for a few seconds and I only cupped his face and brushed my thumb against his cheek.
"Do I deserve this?" He asked, his eyes searching around the ward for a moment.
"I don't know, Kookie" I answered honestly, "but i need you".
He smiled at that. "What exactly happened?" He asked with brows furrowed.
"I'll explain later" I said making him pout. A small giggle escaped my lips as I leaned in for another kiss, only to stop and step away as the door flung open with a loud thud , revealing a very messy Taehyung , holding a plastic box in his hand.
"Tae!" I called out.
"Did I miss anything?" He asked.
