"He knows you love him. He always knew. And he loved you so much, always has." Ever since he was a little boy, running after them so they didn't ditch him, decked out with toy guns and shades too big for him. He always wanted to be with Yoongi and Namjoon, it was his dream job when they finally let him into the gang and gave him errands. He did ever last one with such a smile on his face.

They couldn't lose him, not now.

"He did what anyone would have done but I know that it's no comfort. He'll make it though, he's our Kookie. He's not going to let us down, he'll keep fighting." He reached out and took Yoongi's hand, not caring if he got blood on himself or not. He had to be there for him.
