Aftershock
Jimin just got the news.He broke down crying, but stopped when they said they could still save him.
Then he called the others, telling them to go straight to the hospital.
Only J-Hope wasn't there when Jimin got there. They ran after him, chasing after him, yelling at him not to get his hopes up.
Then Jimin burst into the room.
Jin was on his bed, bent at an unnatural angle. His eyes were open, and he was smiling, but his eyes were glazed over. In his hand was a note.
Jimin wailed. "JIN HYUNG!!" He stumbled towards Jin, shaking him, trying to wake him up, though he knew Jin wouldn't ever wake up. Still he shook him, slapped him, pounded on his chest, all the time screaming his name.
The others were all crying too. The windows were open, so they didn't smell the lily, but Suga stepped on something. He bent down and picked them up. They were five white lily petals. Suga felt a sob rising in his throat and pushed it down.
Namjoon, meanwhile, was reading the note that was in Jin's hand. His eyes narrowed and he looked at Jungkook, who was standing to the side, mute. Anger gripped him, and he marched over to Jungkook, waving the note. "You KILLED him?!"
Jimin looked up at them, and grabbed the note from Namjoon. He read it, eyes widening. He threw the paper down, tears streaming down his face. "You killed him! You killed my best-friend-" Anger got the best of him, and he reared his arm back and slapped Jungkook.
Jungkook didn't even flinch. He was thinking of what he just did, revising the moments over and over again. He looked at Jin, then Jimin, his eyes glazed over. His mouth moved. "I...killed...Jin." The words felt wrong. "I...killed...Jin hyung..." Better.
Then he realized what he was saying. "I killed Jin hyung...I killed Jin hung...I killed Jin hyung-" He was cut short by a sting across his cheek. Jimin slapped him again. "Shut up!" he yelled. "Don't ever use those words again! Don't ever talk to me again!" With that, he turned and ran away.
Suga looked at blank Jungkook. It scared him so much that he was blank. He touched his shoulder gently. Jungkook looked at Suga with those hollow eyes. Then it sank in.
He killed him. He was a murderer.
Tears pooled in his eyes, and he embraced Suga. Sobs wracked his body and he couldn't stop them. It was like a dam had exploded, leaving the pain and the guilt to wash over him.
Sure, everyone would be hurt. But he would be hurt the most, because he was a murderer.
