#bts cold

[crystalsnow95z]

i had a sudden idea for a fic req. maybe poor jimin has a cold during one of bts' important meetings? like their speeches with UN and this makes jimin feel bad.

I struggled so much with this I don't know why..it's a bit short compared to my normal work. Forgive me🙏

I'm sorry it didn't turn out well, but the more i try to redo it, the more i hate it😅

"I don't know if I can do this..." Jimin eyes shifted to the others,watching them get ready for their own speeches, but no matter how hard I tried to suppress my cough to get through mine,I can't even get a quarter way before the painful cough escapes.

"Did you take the medicine before we left?" Hobi asks, looking up from his paper with worry in his eyes.

Jimin taking a tissue to spit the phlegm into. "I took medicine right when I woke up, and right after we got off the pla-" His coughing stops him from finishing the sentence, quickly grabbing a tissue to spit into, the mucus that filled his throat making him feel like gagging.

"Are you sure you don't just want to shorten your speech or just skip it all together? It sounds like you're losing your voice.." Jin suggests, but the idea of everyone else doing the speech was clearly out of the question.

Jungkookie is so nervous about it, I can see the paper shaking, and Namjoonie-hyung hasn't been able to sit still since we got here.. it wouldn't be fair for me to skip it, and I spent so much time on my speech.. I have to do this..

"No, no. I finally got my speech memorized. I'll mess up if I change..eh..eh..heh'tichiugh!" Jimin quickly covers his face, getting snot on the sleeves of his suit, pouting at the mess he made.

"Come on, Jiminie, let's get you cleaned up." Yoongi pulls Jimin by the elbow, leading him to the bathroom, wetting some paper towel to wash off the ends of his suit. "It's okay if you can't do it. If you're sick, you're sick. You can't control it." He dabs the mess away, careful not to just spread it further.

"I have to do this.. it won't feel right not to.. I'll just feel guilty the whole time.." Jimin sniffles, making him cough.

"Stop that, blow your nose." Yoongi scolds him, putting a hand on his shoulder before adding in a softer tone. "You'll just make yourself feel worse."

Jimin didn't think that was possible. He had to speak softer to stop his throat from hurting so much to talk, and his sinuses were so swollen it made his whole face hurt with a sharp headache, each cough just making the pain become intensify.

"Sorry, hyung.." Jimin went into the stall to get some toliet paper, trying to clear his nose while Yoongi washed his hands. No matter how hard he tried, it felt like there's no end. He sighed in annoyance, flushing the wads of tolietpaper down the toliet.

"You feeling any better?" Namjoon entered the bathroom to check on Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung peeking in the bathroom.

"Guys I'm fine..it's just a cold. I'm fine." Jimin gives him a smile, hoping if he keeps saying it, it would come true.

"It's time to go.." Staff calls to the members. "Is everyone ready?"

"As ready as I can be.." Jimin says, stifling a cough.

The boys look at him with worried expressions, following staff out of the room to meet with their president before going on stage.

Namjoon meets him first, bowing deeply and taking his hand. "Thank you for inviting us. It's a real honor."

"It's a pleasure to see you boys again." The president gives him a smile, greeting each boy with a warm hug.

Jimin tenses when he feels him squeeze him, a cough escaping his lips, quickly pulling away and bowing deeply. "I'm sorry..."

"Are you unwell?" The South korean president asked.

"It's nothing serious, I'm..I'm.." Jimin turns away from him, covering his face with his hands as a squeak of a sneeze comes out of him. "Hehitch!" He sniffles wetly, cheeks flushed red with embarrassment as he turns back, bowing again. "I'm sorry."

"Bless you." Hoseok rubs his back, giving him a tissue for his dripping nose. "Here, Jiminie."

Jimin wipes his nose, feeling it trying to drip into his mouth. I'm so gross.. I'm supposed to be here to represent my nation..

"Do you think you can perform today?" The president asks with concern, making Jimin's heart skip a beat. He had almost forgotten they were going to record before the meeting.

"I'll be okay.." Jimin says, trying to keep his voice steady. He wasn't just performing for army.. this was representing his nation. He couldn't mess this up.

"You got this.. I'll be here to back you up okay? I've been memorizing your lyrics with Taehyungie hyungie on the plane just I'm case you needed help?" Jungkook tries to rub some of the tension out of Jimin's shoulders. He couldn't help him with his speech, but he could at least lend him his voice while they performed, just as Jimin did for him before.

"Thanks Gukkie.." Jimin gives him a small smile, appreciating the gesture, but he didn't want to put extra work on the younger members.

"We got five minutes before rolling." A staff member alerts them.

Jimin pops a cough drop into his mouth to try to soothe his raw throat, feeling the mentol numbing a bit of the pain away. "I'll be okay.. my throat feels a little better after the tea staff gave me. Just worry about your parts okay?" He sniffles, making Jungkook leave his side to find him a tissue.

Jimin blows his nose one last time before getting into position to perform with his members, checking that the lighting was okay and that everyone's mic was working properly. He put one hand over the other to keep the mic steady in his stretching hands.

"Testing, 1..2.." Jimin could hear his voice in his ear piece, grimacing on how he sounded, clearing his throat to see if it would help. "Ahh..ahh.." he makes more sound into the mic, relaxing when he sounds more like himself again.

"Jiminie you got this!" Hoseok cheered into his mic.

"Let's go J.M!" Namjoon joins in.

Jimin smiles, wishing he had as much confidence in himself as they did.

He heard staff counting down for the cameras to roll, taking a deep breath, coughing instead of exhaling. He apologizes when he hears them starts the count over, feeling the eyes of his concerned members watching him.

I can do this.. I have to do this..

Jimin wishes it wasn't him that was singing first, that he asked to change it to a song without so many high notes, but he couldn't bring himself to ask the members to do it with less than a 24 hour notice.

He took another deep breath this time his voice coming out, singing calmly into the mic despite his heart thumping loudly in his ears and hammering against his chest.

"Open my eyes I'm in the dark..The sound of my heart beating... When it's unfamiliar.."

He sings the lyrics with his eyes closed, pressing his palm by his throat to try to help ease the pain. This isn't even the high part.. but it hurts..

Jungkook takes over the next part, Jimin pursing his lips together as a cough tries escaping. He was glad they didn't have any choreography to do. He was already having a rough time breathing, his nose already stuffing up once more during Yoongi's part. He took a deep breath when he heard Jungkook singing, cursing himself for shaking so much.

"Maybe I fell in order to take the place of those countless stars..." Jimin's voice came out strained, cracking at the end, making tears start to well up in his eyes, quickly looking up to try to stop them, blinking rapidly, singing softer.

"The target of thousands of bright arrows is me alone, ayy.." Jungkook sings along with him.

The notes will only get higher from here..

Jimin feels Jungkook and Jin move on either side of him, wrapping an arm around his shoulders and swaying him as they sing the chorus.

Jimin takes a shaky breath, smiling through his tears, wrapping his arms around the waist of his members. As if planned, Taehyung wraps his arm around Jungkook, the two singing the post chorus together,sharing Taehyung's mic.

Namjoon wraps around Taehyung and Hoseok to Jin as they sing their parts, Hoseok beckoning Yoongi over by opening up his arm, the rapper shyly joining in the line.

Jimin smiles, despite the tears that flowed down his cheeks, feeling the love pouring from his members. Jungkook kept his word, Taehyung and Jungkook harmonizing with him for his parts to cover up his mistakes, the boys moving outside during the last minute of the song, quickly jumping into the next.

Jimin felt his voice growing weaker and weaker as he sang the two youngest members', voices overpowering his by the end of the second song. He focused on the choreography, pushing his limits to try to put on a good, completely exhausted by the end of it.

"Cut!"

As soon as Jimin heard the word, he collapsed into the grass, coughing into his fist, screwing his eyes shut from the pain in his throat.

"Jimin-ah, are you okay? Do you need oxygen" Hoseok rushes to his side, rubbing upper chest try to loosen the mucus. "Please, could I have some water?" He asks staff, using his sleeves to wipe the sweat from Jimin's brow.

Jimin spits up phelm, taking deep breaths to try to slow his coughing. A staff member gives him a water bottle, Jimin giving him a quick bow before gulping it down, the cool liquid soothing his throat.

"I'm fi.." Jimin's voice was only a hoarse whisper, cracking at the end, his eyes widening. Oh no. This can't be happening. I have a speech to give..

"My..my voice.." Jimin feels his eyes water, burying his face in Hoseok's shoulder.

"Aiigo.. the performance was too much.." Hoseok coos sympathically, hugging him close. "It's okay baby, it's okay.. you gave it your all.."

"I should've told him not to sing. Im sorry, Jimin.." Namjoon felt guilty for letting him push himself past his limits, but Jimin shook his head.

"I wanted to do it.." Jimin looks up helplessly at Namjoon. "But..now..what about the speech?"

"I told you before not to worry about that..it's not important.." Namjoon pulls him close. "Don't worry about it, Jiminie. Just worry about getting better, okay? I can read it for you."

"But-"

Namjoon puts a finger on his lips. "No. No more talking. Let hyung handle it." He pulls the older card on Jimin. "You rest and don't cry.. you can't help it if you get sick.."

Jimin nods, knowing that even if he argued against him, he wouldn't be able to do it. Jimin takes the tissue staff offered him, cleaning up his face. As soon af the tissue touched his nose the sneezes he held back came one by one. "Heh..uughchi! Heh'itchi...Ha..hexifgh..! Heh'xxcghi!"

"My poor baby.." Hoseok rubs Jimin's back, trying to soothe him. "We'll have to get you more medicine when we get to the hotel.."

"I'm sorry.. for embarrassing everyone.." Jimin sniffles.

"You didn't embarrass anybody. It's perfect normal to be sick okay Jiminie?" Yoongi tells him in a serious tone.

"Yeah, we're proud you pushed through two songs when you were in such bad condition." Jin adds wiping Jimins eyes. "You're gonna make me cry.."

"So..I can..still go on stage and stand with you guys?" Jimin asks, voice cracking.

"What kind of question is that?" Taehyung sounds mock offended. "Of course you're going to be with us. You just got to stay quiet, and every time you try to talk I'll hit you with my shoe." He teases, untying his shoe.

"Taehyungie you better keep your shoes on while on stage. Dont embarrass me." Namjoon scolds playfully, getting a giggle out of the 95ers.

"Keep your sweaty shoe to yourself." Jimin whispers with a tiny giggle, pushing away the shoe Taehyung was threatening him with.

"I said no talking." Taehyung playfully hits Jimin in the thigh with the shoe. "Bad Jimin."

"Come on kids, we gotta get ready. Sick or not, we still have a meeting to attend.." Jin gathers up his members, going back inside.

"Jiminie remember, it doesn't matter what the world thinks. Only Army..and they'll understand you aren't always like this okay?" Hoseok tells him taking his hand. "Just get better soon okay?"

Jimin smiles, nodding his head, feeling himself calming down. He makes a heart to Hoseok, the older member smiling.

"I love you too Jiminie." Hoseok pulls Jimin close to kiss the top of his head. "A lot of people do, so take better care of yourself."

[crystalsnow95z]

I saw this prompt from @btshurtcomfortprompts and loved it, so I'm doing a quick drabble. It doesn't have a proper ending. Sorry.

Caretaker: Taehyung and Jin

"Taehyung-ah I need help, how do you get him to move forward?" Jimin calls from the black mare he was mounted on, nervously stroking the back of her neck.

"Mines going backwards.." Jin says urgently, making the other members laugh to see him struggle with a confused expression.

"Watch." Taehyung controls his brown stallion, making him go in a circle around the members, showing the members each movement and sound he makes in the process, his horse riding lessons paying off.

"Oh! She's moving!" Jimin smiles brightly, riding along side Taehyung. "Look I got it Tete."

"Good job, Jiminie," Taehyung praises Jimin, but his words are drowned out by the high-pitched panic of J-hope.

"Woah, woah.. too fast..too fast!" J-hope squeals when his horse goes into a full gallop, misreading his body language.

"Hyung you gotta relax your body and gently pull the reins." Taehyung calls to him, speeding up his horse to catch up with him. "Hyungie keep your back straight..!"

"Woah Pepper woah!" J-hope trusts Taehyung, following his advice, relaxing when the grey mare slows down. "Oh..Oh my stomach.." J-hope whines softly. "I'm done with the horse.. please help me get down. I'd much rather ride a bike.."

A staff member helps him get off the horse, j-hope laying in the grass, waiting for the nausea to pass.

"Are you okay, Hyungie?" Taehyung asks, stopping his horse in front of J-hope, ready to get down to check on him but J-hope sits up.

"No, don't worry. Go have fun. I'm okay." J-hope waves him off.

The boys were going to have a quick race, the members taking time to get used to the horses. Jungkook finally gets used to riding, happily riding up to Taehyung. "Look, hyung. I think I got the hang of it." He says proudly.

"You're really good." Taehyung gives him what he wanted, Jungkook beaming happily at the praise.

Yoongi gets off his horse to check on J-hope, rubbing his hand over J-hope's stomach. "You okay Hoba?"

"Yeah.. I'm okay.. I guess I was too tense, so she thought I wanted to go faster.." J-hope lays his head in Yoongi's lap. "Do you think I should give her another chance? Taehyungie is really excited that all seven of us have a chance to ride together this time.."

"I think you can do it. You just have to be careful not to squeeze her because you're nervous. Do you want me to see if staff has any medicine for nausea first?"

J-hope nods, letting Yoongi up. "Thanks hyung.."

"Ready?" Taehyung asks the members.

"As ready as I'll ever be." J-hope strokes the mare's mane, taking a deep breath to keep calm. "Let's go before I change my mind!"

The seven boys take off at the count of three, Namjoon, Jin and J-hope starring slowly as the other boys quickly get their horses in a gallop.

"You're doing good Yoongi-hyung!" Jungkook says with surprise when Yoongi passes him. "But I won't let you win!"

Everything was going well until the sound of thunder boomed in the distance. Most of the horses were unaffected, but the younger unexpirenced mare Jimin was riding got spooked, bucking upwards.

Jimin instinctly held onto the reins tightly, but when the mare bucked up again, taking off in a full gallop in fear, sending Jimin flying off, falling awkwardly on his side with a yelp.

Taehyung skids his horse to a stop when he hears Jimin, jumping down to rush to his side, ignoring his awkward landing. "Jimin-Ah are you okay?"

Jimin gasped for air, his ribcage flaring up with pain where he landed. "Ah..Taehyung-ah it hurts to breathe.."

Taehyung lifts up Jimin's shirt to examine him, eyes widening when he sees that where he fell was already bruising. "Ah Jiminah.. it's already turning blue.."

"Its just some bruises...Tae don't worry so much... It could've been much worse... Taehyungie, it's not your fault." Jimin takes short, quick breaths to try to miminize his pain. Even after getting home on painkillers, it still hurt to take a deep breath.

"But it was my idea to go horseback riding.. I shouldn't have chosen something so dangerous.. you guys weren't trained like I was.." Taehyung speaks softly with a pout while putting a cold compress on Jimin's injured ribcage, still working on bringing down the swelling. "If we went to the beach or hiking, you wouldn't be hurting right now."

"It's not your fault the horse got scared, so stop blaming yourself. I wanted to try it, too." Jimin lightly punched Taehyungs thigh, yawning with a squeak, screwing up his eyes from the pain.

"You should get some sleep, Jiminie. You won't yawn if you're asleep. Do you need anything first? Some water? A snack? More blankets? Some cuddles?"Taehyung asks, trying to think about anything to help make Jimin more comfortable.

"I'm really hot right now.. could you open the window for me, please?" Jimin requests softly, the room being hot and stuffy from no one being home all day.

"Of course." Taehyung gets up to open it, letting the summer breeze in. "It's so nice out.. and now your stuck inside..."

"Jimin-ah, Taehyung-ah, it's time for dinner." Jin calls from the kitchen.

"I'm not hungry. I'm too tired, you can go though.." Jimin tries to suppress his yawn by closing his mouth, eyes watering when when his lungs expand with a whimper.

"I want to stay with you. I'll eat when you sleep." Taehyung takes a seat back on the bed, but his stomach grumbles in protest, his cheeks tinting pink.

"Go eat, Tete. I'll be fine." Jimin pushes at his side. "I'll be asleep in a few minutes, and you hardly ate lunch because it was too spicy for you. Enjoy the trip for me, okay? You don't have.. to spend it.. in here with me.." Jimin struggles with each sentence, feeling lightheaded.

"If you're sure.. Alright, I'm going.." Taehyung reluctantly leaves with another push. "I'll come back tonight then, okay?"

"You can't sleep in my bed, Taehyungie. I love you, but I don't want you grabbing me in your sleep." Jimin knows Taehyungs sleeping habits, wincing at just the thought of Taehyung throwing his leg around him. "I'll be fine, really. I'll call you if I need anythi..aahh.." Jimin whines when another yawn comes, holding his tender ribcage.

Taehyung pouts at his rejection but understands, not arguing against it. "Alright, Jiminie. I'll come before bed, but I'll sleep with Jungkookie tonight." He gives Jimin a kiss on the top of his head before leaving the room.

Jimin wakes up in the middle of the night, shivering. (Why is my room so cold...?) He goes to sit up to investigate, but his body reminds him of his injury with a sharp pain, making his head spin, falling back with a thud. Jimin inhales sharply, eyes watering. (Fu*k..that hurts...)

Jimin keeps his eyes closed while he waits for the pain to become bearable again, taking small breaths listening to the sound of the heavy rain. (Why does it sound so loud..?)

Jimin opens his eyes, allowing them to adjust to the darkness. He looks around, finding the source of the cold air. (Ah, the window..) He had completely forgotten he asked Taehyung to open it, the cold night air stuffing his nose.

Jimin searches the bed for his phone, slowly sliding his hand across the bed until his hand hits it, squinting when the blinding white light shines in his eyes, calling his soulmate.

"Jimin-ah?" Taehyung's husky voice comes through Jimin's phone on the very last ring.

"I'm sorry to wake you..but my window..it's freezing in my room now.." Jimin takes small breaths in between each sentence, every breath more painful than the last.

"Window...?" Taehyung's sleepy deep voice comes through, trying to process the words, fully waking up."Ah, i didn't close the window, and it's storming!"

Jimin could hear Taehyung coming, so he hung up the phone. Taehyung rushes to the window, pushing it closed. "It was hot earlier..the rain really brought down the temperature. Do you need anything else Jiminah? I can make you some tea to warm you up."

Jimin checks the time on his phone, counting on his fingers to see if it's been long enough for another dose of medicine to help the pain. "You don't have to make tea, I just want a jacket and the medicine the doctor gave me.. it's ten minutes early, but I don't care.."

Taehyung nods, turning on the lamp and shaking a pill out of the bottle giving it to Jimin along with a water bottle. "Here, don't drop it.." He carefully places the pill in his hand before going to Jimin's suitcase, rummaging through it. "The one you packed is a pullover hoodie. Let me get you mine. It'll be easier to put on." Taehyung leaves the room.

Jimin swallows the pill, washing it down with water. Jimin's heart sank when he felt an itch in his nose, a sneeze coming on. "Heh...ceh..cheu"Jimin squeaked out the sneezes, eyes watering.

"Jiminie, what was that?" Taehyung returns to the room with a slight limp to his step, helping him sit up so he can get the jacket over his arms.

"A very painful sneeze." Jimin sniffles, instantly regretting it, gritting his teeth together. "Ugh.." He complained softly.

"Poor baby.. it should warm up in here soon. The rest of the house is warm. Do you want me to hold you so you can warm up faster? I promise i won't fall asleep" Taehyung asks offering his pinkie.

"Alright, as long as you leave as soon as you're tired, okay?" Jimin allows Taehyung onto the bed, the younger man inching close to his uninjured side, helping him slowly lay back down.

The mix of Taehyung's warmth and the medicine kicking in made Jimin drowsy, falling asleep almost instantly. "Jiminah?" Taehyung whispers,getting no response.

(I don't want to hurt you if I fall asleep, too..) Taehyung tries to slowly move Jimin off his chest, but when he tries, Jimin lets out a soft moan, squeezing Taehyung tighter. (Ah.. I'm stuck. I don't know how to avoid hurting him..) Taehyung strokes Jimin's hair from his face. He stayed up as long as he could, reading comics on his phone and scrolling through social media, commenting on weverse posts, and sending the Fandom in a frenzy until he passes out, unable to fight the tiredness that engulfed him.

Taehyung wakes to the sound of Jimin's coughing. He quickly checked to see if he accidently squeezed him checking the placement of his hands, one on Jimin's back the other wrapped around Jimin's shoulder loosely,Jimin safely laying on his chest. Taehyung's heart tightens when another cough comes, along with a pained whimper, finding out it wasn't him that was the problem.

"Oh no, Jiminie.." Taehyung sighs sympathetically when he sees the reddened nose and flushed cheeks of his fellow 95er. He gently reaches his hand to Jimin's cheek, feeling the heat of a fever. "Aiigo..my poor Minie.." Taehyung looks for his phone, finding it just out of his reach by his knee. (Sh*t.. I need to get a hold of the others..) He slowly bends his leg, using his foot to push his phone closer, but he jumps when Jimin sneezes, kicking his phone off the bed.

"Heh'ehhitch..!" Jimin squeaks.

"Ah, you aren't making this easy.." Taehyung sighs, thinking of another plan. Taehyung checks the dimly lit room for Jimin's phone, finding it on the pillow. He calls Jin, whispering into the phone. "Hyung we need medicine for Jininie."

"Who is it?" Jin's answers, hardly awake to process Taehyungs whispers.

"Hyung its Taehyung.. please wake up.." Taehyung speaks urgently into the phone as he feels Jimin's chest fill with air and his nose twitch, putting his finger under Jimin's nose to try to stop it.

"Vuu? What's wrong?" The desperation in Taehyung's voice wakes him up.

"Jimin is sick.." Taehyung says softly. "I think he caught a cold from the open window last night.."

"Heh'ehhitchu!" Jimin sneezes with a pained squeak despite his efforts to stop it.

Taehyung pulls his finger away, unsure on what to do with the thin layer of slimy mucus that covered it. "Bring tissues too.."

"Heh'hitch!" Jimin sneezes again, this time sitting up, whimpering as a sharp pain hits his injured ribs, wrapping his arm around them."Fu*k..it hurts..."

"I'll get some medicine and make him something light to eat. He really should eat with the pain killers.." Jin starts making a mental list of what he needs. "Just try to keep him comfortable for now."

"I will hyung.. thank you." Taehyung gives Jimin a kiss on the top of his head he hangs up."My poor minnie.. hyung will bring you medicine to help, okay? Your nose is dripping. Hang on I'll get you a tissue.

Jimin goes to answer, but a squeaky sneeze comes out instead followed by a whimper. "Heh'ehhitch! Mmm.."

Jin comes into the room with a box of tissues, a handful of cough drops, and Hoba is up now so asked him to cook while im out. "I need to go to the store, but I got these for now. I'll come back as soon as I can, okay, Minnie?" Jin takes out a tissue, wiping it underneath Jimin's dripping nose. Try to rest until Hoba comes okay?"

"Okay, hyung.." Jimin wiggles his nose, Jin tickling it with the tissue. "Heh'hich!" Jimin whimpers.

Jin kisses the top of his head, leaving the room to buy medicine the vocalist desperately needed.

"Do you want to read this web toon I found last Night? I think you'd like it. I'll even read it to you." Taehyung very slowly adjusts so Jimin can see while he scrolls, reading from the beginning despite being 50 pages in alraady, reading words out loud, giving each character a different voice.

Jimin laughs at one of the parts, inhaling sharply from the pain. (I didn't think laughing could hurt so much..it's just as bad as sneezing..)

"Ah, I'm sorry.. I'm sorry!" Taehyung tries to gently rub the pain away for him. "I didn't know you'd think it was that funny.."

"No..no, it's okay.." Jimin speaks through gritted teeth, eyes shut tightly. "It's not your fault. You were just trying to cheer me up." Jimin takes quick, steady breaths leaning heavily against Taehyung's side.

"Let's stop reading it for now.." Taehyung rubs his thumb across Jimin's knuckles. "I can read it to you more when you're feeling better.."

"That's probably for the best. I'm sorry Taehyung-ah.."

Jin enters the room with a bag, spilling the contents on the side table, taking out a thermometer, pressing it under Jimin's tongue. (He's running a mild fever..)"Jiminie, how are you feeling?"

"It hurts to breathe and I keep sneezing.. and I can't even laugh.." jimin speaks with a pout.

"My poor baby..do you think you could eat? Hobi is almost done cooking.." Jin asks while pouring medicine into the small cup. "Here, take this.."

"I think so.. my stomach doesn't hurt.. just my head and ribs.." jimin answers honestly, taking the medicine then scrunching his nose at the strong cherry taste.

"Try at least a few bites, okay?"

"Okay.." jimin squeaks when another yawn comes. "You should go hyungie, I don't want you getting sick."

"What about Taehyungie?"

"He's already been here all night, it's too late. I probably already gave it to him. You're welcome." Jimin says with a playful smile.

"Oh, thanks." Taehyung says sarcastically, pressing his forehead playfully against Jimins. "Sharing isn't always caring."

Jin relaxes to see Jimin playing with Taehyung, leaving to the kitchen to help J-hope, but Jin isn't aware Jimin is trying his hardest not to worry his members. Taehyung has already seen how much pain he was in, seeing no point in trying to fool him too.

"Will you rub my shoulder? It still hurts.." jimin asks softly, Taehyung not hesitating to rub gently where Jimin fell, careful not to put to much pressure, softly humming a song Jimin knew, but couldn't recall the name.

Jimin starts to drift back to sleep, his body growing heavy against Taehyung's side, but as soon as his breathing starts to slow, he takes too deep of a breath, the pain multiplying ten fold, digging his nails into Taehyung's side, eyes swelling with tears.

"Ahh..Jiminie.." Taehyung puts his hand on top of Jimin's, trying to loosen his grip on his waist. "Please..that hurts, squeeze my hand instead.."

Jimin takes his hand, squeezing it."I..I'm sorry..it just hurts.." Jimin couldn't even sniffle to stop his nose from dripping and crying only added more snot to his already stuffed up nose, making breathing agonizing.

"It's okay Jiminie, it was an accident.." Taehyung wipes away Jimin's tears, then tries to wipe his nose clean with a tissue. "You gotta blow Jiminie, you'll be able to breathe better.."

Jimin obeys, messily blowing into the tissue lightly. "Thanks Tae..that's a little better.." Jimin's breathing still came out in short gasps, his head spinning.

"Jiminie, you gotta sit up. It'll make it easier to breathe, here, y.. you can lean on me.." Taehyung tries to keep his voice steady, but his voice still trembles. He could see Jimin's eyes dulling, becoming unfocused. "You'll faint Jimin.."

Jimin tries to move, but every inch he moves sends a ripple of pain in his ribs, tears streaming down his cheeks. "I can't..it hurts.."

Taehyung's heart tightens, gripping Jimin's shoulders to keep his progress from being lost. "Come here, Jiminie, it's okay, it's okay.."

Taehyung moves Jimin slowly, letting him cling to his side, resting his head on Taehyung's chest.

"There you go.. is that any better?" Taehyung strokes Jimin's hair from his face, using the rim of his sleeve to dry his tears.

Jimin nods slightly. "A..a little..You're warm.."

"Try to sleep until hobi-hyung comes okay?" Taehyung gently runs his hand up and down Jimin's back, slightly scratching.

" 'ehhitchu!" Jimin sneezes into Taehyung's chest with a whimper, trying to rub the itch away, only irritating it further. "Hehtigh..!" Taehyung could feel the mucus and teaers soaking his shirt as a few more sneezes come out of his soulmate. "Heydht.. Hibxxtch..Heh'ehhtchmmmm.." he whines as the last sneeze comes burying his nose in Taehyung's shoulder to try to stop anymore from coming, just for the uncomfortable tickle moved down to his throat.

Taehyung's stomach dropped, feeling utterly helpless to comfort his best friend, just stroking Jimin's hair. "The medicine should help soon.. just try to breathe until it kicks in. You can do it Minnie.."

Jimin tried to take a breath, but it only came out as a groan, holding his tender ribcage. "I can't..it hurts.."

"That's alright, just trying is enough.." Taehyung gently rubs Jimin's back.

Jimin keeps trying with Taehyung's encouragement, finally getting a steady breath.

"There you go..that's it.. good job." Taehyung relaxes, giving jimin a kiss on his temple, Jimin feeling warmer than before. (His body is working so hard..)

J-hope enters minutes later with a tray with two bowls of Jook and two cups. "I brought breakfast for you and some ginger tea. Aiigo, Jiminie have you been crying?"

"My eyes keep watering from sneezing because it hurts.." Jimin says in a whine.

"My poor baby.." J-hope rubs the back of his neck lovingly. "Try to eat a bit and get more sleep. The more you rest, the faster you'll get better. I can't believe how unlucky you got.."

"I can't either..remind me to always close my window before bed..this is the..the..Itc..hih!" Jimin sneezes.

Namjoon pops into the room. "How are you Jiminah?"

"Miserably sneezy..but I'll be okay.."

"Hope, are you going to come with us or stay here?"

"He's coming with you." Jimin answers for J-hope.

"But I should really stay and help Taehyungie." J-hope counters.

"He's going too." Jimin didn't want anyone missing out because of him.

"Taehyung-ah can't go. He was limping by the time we returned home. Staff wants him to rest his ankle so he doesn't get worse." Namjoon informs Jimin.

"What?" Jimin looks at Taehyung, only now noticing the wrap around his foot and ankle. "You didn't tell me you were put on bed rest.."

"It's not a big deal. It's actually a good thing. It means i get to spend quality time with you." Taehyung smiles. "You go have fun. I'll be able to handle things here."

Everyone checked in on the 95ers before leaving for the day, Yoongi making sure there's plenty of water by the bed, Jungkook bringing in an extra humidifier to help with Jimin's stuffy nose, Jin putting his RJ doll on the bed. Jimin felt well loved by his brothers.

'Minnie's, do you think you could try to eat a little for me? You haven't eaten since breakfast yesterday.."

"I don't feel hungry.." Jimin says in a breathy whisper.

"Does your stomach hurt Minnie?" Taehyung asks gently before trying to push him further, not wanting to worsen his condition.

"No, just my head and r...hitchieck...!" Jimin sneezes.

"Then please eat just a little bit for me? You need to keep your strength up so you can get better. Please?"

Jimin always found it hard to say no when Taehyung looked at him with those big brown eyes, but his hand was too shaky, the food falling off the spoon before reaching his mouth.

"Let me do it." Taehyung uses a tissue to clean up the jook then picks up Jimin's spoon, being sure to blow on it before giving it to jimin.

Jimin takes a bite. "You got to eat too Taehyungie."

"I will, after you had your fill." Taehyung says, scooping up another spoonful, feeding it to Jimin.

Jimin only makes it through a few more bites until another sneeze comes, spraying the food all over his caretaker."echitch!"

Taehyung puts the bowl down, embracing Jimin for the next few sneezes he knew were coming by the way Jimins nose twitches.

"Hwjtvhi...Heh'ehhitxch! Hehtigh.." Jimin sneezes consecutively. "Ugh. Taehyungie..?"

"Yes Jiminie?"

"Knock me out so i stop sneezing.." Jimin whines.

"I would if I could.. but you know I couldn't really hurt you."

"I know Tete..thanks for staying with me.." Jimin smiles through the pain.

Part 3 Pairing: Idol!Min Yoongi x Nerd!Reader

Summary:

          Y/N and Yoongi are two individuals in completely different worlds who collide due to an arranged marriage. What happens when there’s somebody else living with them too?

⚠️ Warnings: Smut, fluff, angst, heartbreak, and crying. Tissues are highly recommended!

Part 1 :

Part 2:

One week later...

 Y/N's POV

It’s been a week since a beautiful angel stepped into our lives and we’ve already grown so close. I can say I truly love Ae-cha with all my heart. We spend so much time together. She helps me out in the kitchen (even though it just means she’s going to rummage through the cupboards and find a good snack) and even slips into my bed late at night. She’s sneaky and cute and just downright lovely to me. Despite the way Yoongi despises me with every fibre of his being, I can say that he’s at least able to tolerate my presence now. Barely, but still.

I’m broken out of my thoughts as I feel a pair of small hands sneak around my waist.

“Oh, you’re back!” I say and turn to look at Ae-cha who beams at me, nodding eagerly. Today, I took a leave from my office just to make sure I was there for Ae-cha as she came back from her first guitar lesson. I hoped I'd be at least a little helpful for her and was definitely not disappointed as my little girl came back home and immediately sought me out. She starts talking animatedly about how wonderful her teacher had been and how patient he was to make sure she got all the basics right before beginning their lesson.

Knowing that she probably already knew all those basics but still liked appreciating the teacher for her thoughtfulness, I smile at her and then realize there’s another person in the kitchen at the sound of someone clearing their throat. I realize it’s Yoongi by the sound and turn around returning to my work as I know he wants to talk to Ae-cha. Hence, you can see I’m surprised when he softly calls out,

“Y/N.”

Hiding the fact that my heart just skipped a goddamn beat hearing him speak my name in such a soft tone, I slowly turn to face him. He’s standing there. Leaning against the top of the kitchen counter, looking impeccably handsome as ever.

“Can we talk?”

The softly posed question both confuses and scares me to an equal level though I just gulp, trying to wet my suddenly dry throat and manage to muster a believable smile.

“Yeah, sure.” I say and find myself even more confused as he instructs Ae-cha to go to her room and complete her homework. The little girl turns to send a secretive smile at me and runs outside, giggling after I dazedly smile back at her.

Yoongi stays there for a while, watching her go before he directs his attention at me. Being the centre of attention has always made me nervous and anxious but I don’t understand why being the centre of Yoongi’s attention has me feeling happy and powerful. It feels as if l my life I was used to being invisible, made peace with the fact but If Yoongi looks at me, I never want him to look away. He walks towards me and stops at an arm’s distance.

“I spoke to Ae-cha’s guardian yesterday and he told me that adoption would be a good option if we want to keep her with us. Otherwise, according to the law she’ll have to be sent to an orphanage. My legal team has told me that adoption can only be possible if there’s a functioning relationship between the couple. It’s said that the officers are hard to convince unless the pair have and understanding with each other. I know that we haven’t exactly been a proper couple but do you think we can at least try to pretend?

The fact that he wanted to talk to me only because it was about Ae-cha breaks my heart again. Even worse, he’s just giving that to me as a piece of information, not even slightly caring about my opinion. I struggle to gather the broken pieces before I say,

“Yeah, I think we can.”

He doesn’t make my struggle easier when he speaks again,

“Thanks. But you know that I’m only asking you this for Ae-cha, right? It has nothing to do with us.”

I feel tears prick my eyes but I hold on, deciding not to break down in front of him. I offer my best smile to him and nod.

He replies with an,

“Oh good. See you later then.” and walks out.

I run to my room and lock the door before crying my hearts out. Within a few minutes, I hear a soft knock on my door. Groaning, I'm about to tell whoever it is to go away when

"Y/n, Are you in there?" Ae-cha's voice sounds from the other side of the door. Panicking slightly, I sniff a few times, hurriedly running to the restroom and splashing my face with water.

"Yeah, what's up?" I ask, smiling brightly at her after opening the door to my room.

The little girl eyes me up and down suspiciously as if she isn't convinced everything's fine.

"hm, I was going to watch a movie. Wanna join?"

I frown, trying to find out why exactly she's behaving as if she knows everything before shrugging as to say,

"Sure, why not."

Ae-cha settles down on the couch, flipping through the programs to find a good movie while I make some popcorn for us.

After we settle comfortably on the couch and the movie is playing, I space out. Not that I mean to, but the recent events all awaken my overthinking abilities. I had a pretty good day from the morning, what with Ae-cha's guitar lessons and all but once again, Yoongi had to ruin it. But even with how badly he treats me, I cannot bring myself to hate this man. I'm more annoyed than angry actually. If he wanted to go about the adoption process, I'm pretty sure he'll be able to surpass all the legal procedures with his societal standing and popularity. But he was deciding to do it the legal way. And I respect that, truly. But the least he could do for me, was to treat me like an actual human being and consider my feelings about the whole things. At least for the sake of pretending, we had to get to know each other. He just...

As the million wild thoughts race through my mind, I feel a soft warm body slowly move towards me on the couch. Turning, I see e-cha snuggling under my arm, cuddling closer and laying her head on my shoulder. at least, she tries to but with her height, she's only successful at lading on my chest. Laughing softly, I pull her closer, creating a comfortable space for her to lie down on the couch.

Smiling up at me, she leans closer and for a second I'm almost afraid. But then, her soft lips gently graze my cheek and I sit, frozen at what just happened. Then, she gets back to her previous position. Pleasantly surprised, I'm only able to wrap her up in my arms and almost miss it when she whispers softly,

"I'm there for you."

The burn of my eyes and the sudden tightness in my throat are all to familiar but i stubbornly blink them back, only nodding and pressing a kiss to her temple. She looks up at me and we smile at each other.

This wonderful creature, so small. But filled with so much knowledge. I sit there in awe trying to comprehend how she can be so understanding in spite of not understanding!?!?

I finally decide, I can tackle whatever Yoongi throws t me, no matter how hard as long as I have my dear Ae-cha by my side. I love her. And I love him. In different ways. Yet at the same time, soo similar.

_______________________________________________________

That was quite a long break. I apologize for it. But as you can see, I'm back. I'm working on this fic and a small one-shot based on Jimin. SO, stay tuned. Do tell me what you think.

Does Ae-cha KNOW what happened between them? Is Yoongi doing this the legal way just for formality's sake or for something else? Ae-cha is actually and angel, isn't she?

[crystalsnow95z]

can you write a sickfic about jimin coming down with a cold while shooting run bts?

Hopefully this is acceptable to you. I don't have the spare time to rewrite it.. I just wrote without planning ahead. The ending sucks. If you don't like it I'll write a new one

Tw: IV used so needle meantion?

"Jiminie, choose a paper." J-Hope gently nudges Jimin to get his attention.

"Huh? Oh, right. Sorry." Jimin takes a piece of paper from the cup. "I got-"

"No, no don't tell them Jimin-sii. It's a scavenger hunt. You need to find the item. Telling the others will make it harder." Staff warns him.

"Ah, right. Thank you." He bows, fighting off the urge to cough.

"Are you feeling okay Jiminah? Your voice sounds off." Yoongi places a hand on his shoulder, worry flashing in his eyes.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Its just a little tickle in my throat. I'll rest when I get home. It's no big deal." Jimin smiles, trying to sound convincing even with another cough following his words.

"Are you sure Jimin? You could sit this one out and be an MC if you aren't feeling well." Namjoon frets as well, placing his hand on the back if Jimin's neck, checking for warmth.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. It's just a little cold. It's just annoying." Jimin moves away from Namjoon, checking his objects again before folding up the paper, putting it in his jeans pocket."Okay, I'm ready."

The boys are led to a giant warehouse, where they must find their seven items and return to staff everyone given a bag to put their items in.

"You can team up if you like, but that means you have to find each item on every players list. If one finishes all seven, they must wait for their teammates to find all seven as well." Staff explains the rules once more when they reach the destination.

"So it's a gamble.." Yoongi weighs his options of working with someone or working on his own.

"Taehyungie-Hyungie team up with me!" Jungkook jumps onto the back of Taehyung, almost making both men topple forward.

"Aiish Jungkook-ah give me warning before you jump on me.." Taehyung scolds in fear, adjusting the mankae so he doesn't fall, heart racing. "You almost made us fall.."

"Sorry Hyungie. I just think it'll be more fun in a group and you're pretty good at these types of things." Jungkook apologizes, leaning into Taehyung’s cheek.

"Alright Koo. Let's do this together!" Taehyung quickly recovers his cheerfulness, forgiving him instantly.

"If they're teaming together, will you team up with me hyung?"J-Hope asks Yoongi.

"Allright..alright.." Yoongi gives in istantly.

Jimin thought about asking someone to team up with him, but thought against it. It would be easier to hide how awful he felt if he didn't have a team mate.

"Anyone else teaming up?" Staff asks.

"Do we have to decide now?" Jin asks.

"No. You can decide to team up in game but once you agree to be on a team you can't back out."

"Okay, okay. I got it. I'll decide later." Jin replied politely.

"Me too." Jimin adds in and with that, the game begins.

Jungkook gets off Taehyungs back, pulling him into the building.

"They're gonna burn out quickly if they plan to run around.." Yoongi smiles.

"And they might pass up ah item.." Namjoon adds in.

Jimin waits for the others to go in, pretending to adjust his head cam before sneezing into his hands. "Hehitgzh!"

"Bless you." Staff says sympathically.

"Thanks.." Jimin smiles politely, going inside the building. It was a lot bigger on the inside, making him feel worried about finding his items.

Mang toy, snow globe, purple bouncy ball, army headband, red mic, stuffed cat, and a heart.. I wonder if anyone has the same items on their list..

Jimin repeated the list over and over in his head, coughing into his elbow. He could hear the sound of J-hope happily squealing, so he could only assume he already found an item.

"The faster I do this, the sooner I can sit and rest.." Jimin mutters to himself, going through the building. The more he walked, the more tired he became.

"What if we collect things not on our list?" Jimin hears the voice of Jungkook in the hallway head.

"You want to sabotage the other teams?" Taehyung questions.

"What if they have the same idea? Or we can use the items as a trade off if they do!" Jungkook says excitedly.

Jimin covered his face, trying to fight off the urge to sneeze, but even with managing to stop himself, a cough escapes, his sinuses draining into his throat. He tried to muffle it while he runs, but it slowed him down, making him feel dizzy.

"Was that Minnie?" Taehyung questions, quickly turning the corner to find him.

Jimin tries to quickly go into a room to avoid him, not wanting to be caught eavesdropping, but Taehyung grabs onto the back of his shirt before he could get away.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't-"

"Are you okay Jimin-ah?" Taehyung shows no interest in blaming him for spying, only having concern in his big brown eyes.

"Huh..? That's what you followed me for?" Jimin blinks, dumbfounded.

"Of course. The game isn't important if you're unwell." Taehyung says in a serious tone, using his sleeve to wipe Jimin's nose.

"Don't do that you could get sick." Jimin backs up, quickly pulling out the face mask from his pocket, putting it on to protect his fellow 95er.

"It'll be easier on you if you had a teammate, they can help find things with you."

"But you already have Jungkook-ah. That's 21 things to find."

"We don't care about that Hyung." Jungkook adds in, finding the room they slipped into. "We can find 21 things together! We already have two!" Jungkook proudly presents a golden mic charm and a Koya plush.

"But that'll be.." Jimin's words get cut off by another bout of coughs. Jungkook takes this as an opportunity to take Jimin's paper from his back pocket as Taehyung strokes Jimin's back.

"More Minnie, it sounds like you're getting worse.." Taehyung frowns, taking Jimin's hand. "Don't worry. We'll find all your items plus our own!"

"But I said-"

"Too late! I already took your note. That means you gotta team with me!" Jungkook waves the red sheet of paper he pick pocketed. "We already got an item from this list!" Jungkook says excitedly, digging a bouncy ball from his pocket.

"See? It was destiny for us to work together! That makes one item each!" Taehyung smiles brightly.

"Oh alright.." Jimin didn't care if he won or lost right now. They still had to spin the penalty wheel and some of the things listed weren't so bad.

"We gotta hurry though. Do you want me to carry you Hyung?" Jungkook offers, getting down for Jimin to get on his back.

Jimin shakes his head, afraid if he spoke he'd cough.

"Oh alright.. the offers always there.." Jungkook straightens up, giving the paper to Taehyung to look over. The mankae line walks down the hallway together, Jimin staying a couple steps behind, surpressing another sneeze.

"Where should we go next.. the hallway goes in three different directions.." Jungkooks eyes dart from one hall to the other, trying to decide which is the best option.

"should we split up and meet up back here in 10 minutes, but let me see your lists first." Jimin had to get away, his head pounding from the pressure.

"You can take mine, I memorized it." Taehyung gives up his purple paper.

"Take mine too." Jungkook gives up his pink one.

Jimin nods, going right.

"Is it okay to let him go alone?" Jungkook watches him go. "He's looking pale.."

"He's gonna try to hide how he feels. It's better to let him go and let it out instead of him holding it to stop us from worrying.." Taehyung knew his friend very well.

Jimin slipped into a room, releasing the sneezes he was trying to hold in. "Hehtichih! Hehitch! He'iychiugh.." he whines, feeling the snot soak into the cloth mask. "Uuh.." he takes it off with a sigh, trying to clean it off with a crumpled up tissue.

"Here Jiminie." Jin offers him a new tissue. "Blow your nose for hyung."

"Aiish! Hyung you scared me!" Jimin jumps at the sudden new voice, accepting the tissue, turning away to try to clear his nose.

"Sorry Jimin. I didn't mean to." Jin says gently. "Namjoon-Ah was looking for you. He wanted to team up with you, but seeing those papers in your hand you already got a team."

"Oh, yeah.. they bullied me into it.." Jimin smiles fondly.

"I'm glad." Jin smiles. "I'll let you look in this room then. I found something already."

He waves a Tata doll proudly. "Take it easy okay? Do you want me to get staff for you?"

"No. Im fine. Its just a little cold. I can do this."

Jin gives him a small packet of tissues from his bag. "Please tell staff if it becomes too much okay?" He plants a kiss on top of Jimin's head before leaving.

"Thanks hyung.." jimin searches the room, looking at the papers over and over. He couldn't focus on the words, only taking a minute to forget half the list.

This is not good.. I'm gonna hold them back..

Jimin runs a hand through his hair, the stress of disappointing his team, only making his headache worsen. He buries his head in his hands, trying to take a deep breath to calm himself, but when he tries to fill his lungs, a hacking cough comes.

I don't feel well at all.. I'll just rest for a minute..

Jimin lays on his side, taking deep breaths to try to calm his nerves, closing his eyes. He only got a few minutes to rest before the itch returned to his throat,coughing up phlegm, sitting up again. "Wait.. a snow globe!"

Jimin rushes to underneath the table, relieved when he picks up the small globe. "Oh wow.. it's got the BTS logo inside with BT21 playing around it.."

"What does?" Jungkook asks, rushing to Jimin's side.

"This.." He shows him the snow globe. "Has it been ten minutes already?"

"No.. I just got worried about you.." Jungkook admits with a bashful smile. "Jinnie-hyung said you were sneezing a lot, so I went to check on you.."

"Thanks Jungkook-ah. I'm feeling better now that I found something. I was worried I'd only be dead weight.."

"Even if you were, its okay. If you want you can just rest in this room as me and Taehyungie will do it!"

"No. No, i can help." Jimin makes it to his feet. "I just don't think I can run without burning out."

"You don't have to run. I'll do all the running! When we find all 21 items I'll carry you to the entrance on my back!" Jungkook says confidently.

"Even if we find the last item all the way at the far end of the building?" Jimin teases.

"Mm.. I'll ask Taehyungie to help if that happens."

Jimin giggles, but it quickly turns into a cough.

"Let's go meet up with Taehyungie.." He quickly pulls Jungkook trying to not give him time to worry.

"Alright..." Jungkook doesn't stop him, meeting in the fork in the hallway for Taehyung.

"I found a heart!" Taehyung approaches proudly. "And a Stuffed puppy. It kinda looks like rapmon!" He shows the white dog. "Isn't it cute?"

"A heart was on my paper too.. does that mean we gotta find two?" Jungkook asks curiously.

"We should look for one just in case.. Jiminie how are you holding up? This room I found has a couch in it. You can lay down for a bit."

"Oh! I forgot! I found a rubber duck. That was on your list wasn't it Taehyungie?"

"Yes! We're doing good! So good!" Taehyung smiles. "Also I saw Namjoonie-hyung and Jinnie-hyung together. I think they formed a team. That means they'll have to find 14 items."

"That's good.. that doesn't put us at too much of a disadvantage." Jungkook smiles. "We could still avoid last place!"

Jimin relaxes, feeding off of their positive energy. He pulls out the snow globe from his bag, trying to show his contribution."Oh Tete look at this snowglo.." he nearly drops it when he starts coughing. Taehyung hugs him from behind, placing his hands on Jimin's to steady them.

"Are you okay Jimin-sii?" Jungkook takes the snow globe from Jimin, looking at him with wide panicked eyes. "Maybe you should lay down.."

Jimin gives in. He couldn't keep pretending he was okay. It was starting to hurt to breathe and he felt chills run down his spine. "Okay.."

Jungkook picks him up before he can argue, letting Taehyung lead the way to the room with a nice plush couch. "Here you go, Jiminie, nice and comfy.." He places him down, taking off his jacket for Jimin to use as a blanket.

"Thanks, Jungkook-ah.. I'll just lay down for a little bit, then I'll help.." Jimin curls up on his side, coughing into his fist.

"Don't worry about it, Minnie. Rest well, okay?" Taehyung gently moves Jimin's hair out of his face. "I'll come back to check on you soon. Okay?"

"Okay.. I'm sorry.." Jimin yawns, exhaustion hitting hard when his body starts relaxing.

Taehyung and Jungkook go to the door, but instead of Taehyung leaving, the two boys silently play rock, paper scissors, Taehyung hiding in the room, and Jungkook leaving.

Taehyung waited until he heard Jimin's nasally snore to come out of hiding, sitting on the floor in front of the couch gently stroking . "My poor Minnie, Jk is gonna get staff.."

Jimin wakes up laying in J-hope's lap. "Huh? When did i.." His voice comes out hoarsely, getting quieter as he tried to speak, trying to sit up to look around.

"Shh..don't talk baby and be careful.. you have an IV in." J-hope pushes him back down.

"What about the game?" Jimin disobeyed J-hope wanting his questions answered.

"Me and Yoongi finished, so I decided to come sit with you."

"Did..we lose?" Jimin asks.

"No. Everyone else is still in the game. Yoongi-hyung is watching the others still playing.

Jimin relaxes a little. "Who's winning?"

"Right now, it's Junggukkie and Tae. They got 2 more to find to Joonie and hyungs 4. It's a really close game." J-hope smiles. "You don't have to worry about not being there, so just take it easy. Can you drink some water for me?"

Jimin nods, sitting up slowly. J-hope opens the water bottle for him. The cool water felt nice on his sore throat.

"Jiminie is up? That's great." Yoongi's shoulders slump in relief when he comes over. "How are you feeling Jimin?"

"I'm feeling a little better now.." Jimin sniffles.

Yoongi looks for a tissue when he hears him. "Guess what Jiminie?" He asks wiping Jimin's nose.

"Huh?"

"Taehyungie and Kook got second. Namjoon-ah and hyung will be getting the penalty." Yoongi tells him with a smile. If they got last place, he was willing to take Jimin's for him feeling relieved he didn't have to.

Taehyung and Jungkook run up to Jimin. "We did it! We did it! We didn't get last place!" Jungkook cheers loudly.

"I'm sorry I wasn't much help." Jimin says guilt weighing in his chest.

"The thing Namjoonie-hyung and Seokjinnie hyung couldn't find was the snowglobe. There were only two in the whole warehouse. We probably wouldn't have won without you." Jungkook comforts Jimin, getting a smile.

"And with second place we get to keep the things we found, but I gave the dog to Namjoonie." Taehyung gives Jimin his bag from the game, it holding all seven treasures on his list.

"Thanks Tete. I'll treasure the snowglobe as our winning trophy." Jimin smiles, stifling another sneeze. He didn't want to ruin the mood.

"We decided we'll do the punishment in the next episode. We want to get you home.." J-hope squeezes Jimin's hand, watching staff remove the IV.

Jimin winces, staff quickly putting a bandaid over it. "Thank you.." he bows his head to staff. "I'm sorry, I worried everyone.."

"Don't worry..you can help it when you're sick. I'll make you some tea and jook when we get home." Jin ruffles his hair lovingly. "Hyung will take care of you. Let's do the outro and get home."

Sicktember Prompt: Day 17 – Brain Fog/Spaced Out Fandom: BTS Sickie: Namjoon Caregiver: Jin, Hoseok

It's short but it was fun~

“I don’t think he’s noticed,” Hoseok whispers to Jin.

Namjoon was battling a pretty long-lasting case of the flu, but with their current deadlines, he opted to still come into the office instead of hanging out to rest in their apartment. The acoustics were better, he said, when Jin gave him a huge bag of cough drops and a fresh blister pack of cold medication. But when Namjoon had stared at it, unsure what to do, Jin decided he’d tag along. Both of them masked up, to keep Namjoon from plaguing anyone else, Jin trying to prevent himself from catching it (he hopes), but he’s just trying not to laugh at this point.

Hoseok, who was Namjoon’s ‘consult’ on a song, was nothing short of menacing. They have a backtrack going on for a seventh loop, and he’d said he’d help once Namjoon finished his tea.

“It’s just so hot,” Namjoon grumbles, blowing on his cup again. He takes a sip.

There’s an electric kettle plugged in behind him, and as Namjoon closes his eyes and bobs to the music, Hoseok refills his mug.

Does Jin feel bad for gaslighting his leader? A little. Is it keeping him hydrated? Definitely.

The song loops for an eighth time. Hoseok checks his phone, as Namjoon slouches in his chair and leans back. He yawns. He really hasn’t noticed at all. But it’s that brain fog from illness; time isn’t running the same way for all three of them in the room.

“Just give it a moment,” Jin says from the couch. “Let’s listen to the song for this third time, inspiration will hit.”

Namjoon nods, eyes unfocusing as he stares at the screen. “You’re right. I just gotta give it a moment.”

It’s been quite a few moments already. Hoseok spins his chair away so his snickering into his own mask doesn’t give him away and just turns on his phone again. Namjoon takes another sip, then sets the cup down and crosses his arms. And in approximately one more minute, he snores. Jin and Hoseok make eye contact and grin. Even if it’s not the most comfortable, they can give him a quick nap before convincing him to go back home.
