[taemwritesshit]

Hey can i request a jongkey prompt?? How about taemin gets a toothache and has to go to the dentist but he’s scared and his boyfriend ( any member you want) or doesnt have to be bf just any member takes him and is there for emotional support and he’s a cute whiny baby and fluff please and thank you !!

i’ve just seen this ! i’m not so sure what you mean by jongkey prompt, but then there’s taemin, but i’ll do my best ! 

Taemin wasn’t scared. He definitely wasn’t scared of stupid things like the dentist… It was just their scary tools, and that was completely justified, right? Even if it wasn’t right, it was what he continued to mumble to himself as he sat in the backseat of the car, whining and kicking the front passenger seat where Kibum sat, singing along to whatever song was playing on the radio. Taemin couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to whatever it was, but Kibum was definitely enjoying it, and so was Jinki as he drove them to the devil office, humming the lyrics. 

Taemin hadn’t even realized that he had been tapping his hand on his leg until he felt someone else hold it instead, looking over to realize it was none other than the softest of their friend group, Jonghyun. Jonghyun smiled, a small smile with no teeth showing and just rubbed Taemin’s thumb in a soothing manner while Minho sat on the other side of the car, his head nodding against the seat as he fought sleep. How he could sleep in a car with Kibum loudly singing along to the radio, Taemin didn’t know the power behind it, but he definitely respected it. 

“I mean, the dentist hasn’t even seen it… I don’t think it’s a cavity, and I’m pretty content in uh… Not going to the dentist, it’s a waste of ti-” Taemin rambled, blinking rapidly as he fought off the nerves he felt as they got closer. So maybe, maybe he was scared of the dentist. 

“We’re almost there, we’re going anyways, Tae-ah..” Kibum said, interrupting his singing to gently scold the youngest. It was easy to tell that Taemin was terrified, and even though Jonghyun was trying his best, Taemin’s breathing was still a little shallow, and he… he seemed a little pale. 

“I’m fine~” Taemin whined, not even caring if he seemed like an absolute child. He even pouted for good measure, slamming his hands down for absolute emphasis. It would’ve worked…. if Jonghyun hadn’t been holding one of them, giggling at Taemin’s attempt. 

Jonghyun brought himself closer, resting his head on the younger’s shoulder as he didn’t let his hand go, instead just staying closer to the nervous boy. And it worked as a distraction, even if it wasn’t meant to. Because when Taemin breathed, all he smelled was Jonghyun’s strawberry lilac shampoo, the one that stained his hands pink every time he used it, and all he could hear were the soft hums Jonghyun would make when a good song came on the still playing radio. All he focused on was the warm feeling he got from the presence on his shoulder and how heavy and comforting it truly felt. 

And maybe… Maybe if Jonghyun went in with him and held his hand like he was doing now, and kept him feeling this level of comfort, maybe the dentist wouldn’t be so scary.
