This just popped into my head. I hope you enjoy it. Its a bit angsty, a bit fluffy and a lot of good ole protective BTS. ~Bagel
This was the members' worst nightmare. It started out great. You were having a solo concert in a foreign country to promote your album during this time of BTS Chapter 2. It was something you've been working on for years and were so excited to show the world a more mature side of yourself. Being the youngest caused many to baby you and only see you as such.
It was going perfect so far. The turn out was more than you had ever expected with the venues selling out within a few hours of tickets going live. The multiple practices and soundchecks went off without a hitch, you were uncharacteristically energetic, you went onto several talk shows and the reception had been great so far, and a few members had even surprised you by flying out to see the concert. Namjoon and Jimin having time in their schedule to see you in your home country and support you in this huge moment.
That's why this was so shocking when it happened. You had walked off stage and collapsed as soon as you were hidden from the crowd. The members there were escorted backstage to the green room to meet you during your ending ment to beat the crowd and were confused as the staff started to become more and more frantic as they had to wait longer and longer for you to arrive. The two only catch a few words here and there as they watch. Namjoon is just about to ask what was happening when the door slams open by your bodyguard and you're carried in. The two men pushed to the side as the watch on helplessly as the staff got the oxygen and ice pack. Your feet are lifted up to help the blood flow towards your head.
This wasn't the first time they had to experience this. They all had pushed themselves to the edge during performances many times but it never got easier seeing someone you consider family going through it. Jimin turns to the first person he could to start asking a million questions as Namjoon pushes through the people to get as close to you as he can.
Your vision is swimming and everything that you hear above the ringing sounds muffled as you come to. The faces and figures placed around you are blurry and unfamiliar. Your hands come up to push at the mystery hands you felt on you.
"Stop it. They're trying to help you." Namjoon's voice cuts through the ringing and you feel his hand slip into yours as you're gently sat up. Everything feels like it's in slow motion as you move your head towards the leader. You try to give him a smile but fail due to the mask over your mouth from the respirator. Although you do give his hand a weak squeeze. An ice pack gets moved to your neck and causes you to shiver. The chill shocks your system to being more awake and you become aware of Jimin's voice in the room as well.
You couldn't follow what he was saying as your brain was still waking up, but you could tell he slipped into his Busan satoori. His phone was pressed to his ear and his free hand rapidly gesturing around the room as he spoke. Pacing around as you assumed he told the members not there about what had happened.
"Minnie." You manage to croak out after the respirator is removed from your face. Jimin freezes and ends the call before he moves towards you. Kneeling down and taking your other hand as he smiles at you. His eyes disappearing from his smile as the tension leaves his muscles seeing you up and lucid. You return his smile as you feel fans moving the air around you and ice packs pressed against your skin.
"Hey birdie." He says softly. The nickname releasing some of the tension in your shoulders you weren't aware of until then. Your smile widening as well.
"Did you enjoy the show?" You ask. Your hopes of lightening the mood come to fruition as you hear both men chuckle at the question.
"Yes, y/n. Your show was great." Namjoon is the first to answer. "You don't have to go this hard though. You gave us a heart attack when you got carried in here." He says. The staff members back off a bit as you start to talk.
"I know. I know." You begin. A sharp pang of guilt pierces through your chest as he articulates the concern they both had. "I was excited and just pushed too hard. I just wanted to make everyone proud."
"And we are. You did so good. Didn't you hear how loud everyone was cheering?" Jimin chimes in. Reassuring you as best he can with his words. His hand comes up to brush back some hair that fell into your face during all the chaos. Namjoon puts his arm around your shoulders and gives you a side hug.
You stay in that green room longer than you would normally. The staff and medics keeping you from leaving until you were cleared before sneaking the three of you out a back entrance and to the hotel. Jimin and Namjoon refuse to leave your side. Arms around your waist to keep you up and to help steady you in spite of your protests and reassurances. Nothing you said could convince the two to leave your side. You were sure that they would have stayed the night in your hotel room if you didn't put your foot down and kicked them out. Namjoon only agreeing to leave if he got a key card so he could enter if there was an emergency.
"How will you know there's an emergency?" You had asked as you held the extra card in your hand. Looking to the leader with a small tilt in your head.
"I'm sure the commotion that will happen on the floor will be a good indication." He tells you as he grabs the card. The two telling you goodbye after they had given you several hugs and Jimin lingering near your door before getting called by Namjoon to go to their rooms.
