Yunho giggled subtly as he glanced at the worried faces from his members before feigning hurt again, wrapping his arms around his waist and doubled over while whimpering. "Pup? I think we should go to the clinic. You're getting worse by the minute. Do you need your inhaler?" Seonghwa asked, running his hands on Yunho's back while frowning. Yunho shook his head quickly, panicking a bit inside as he didn't want to go to the clinic because he's not even sick. He was just pretending to do so to prank his members. "I'm fine, hyung. I don't need the inhaler." Yunho said and truthfully, he just wanted to test his acting skills with his members and it seems that his acting was great because none of them realize that he was just feigning it.

But Yunho made a great mistake as he forgot that they had to do some shooting that day. He only remembered it when Hongjoong came up to him with a worried face, telling him, "Pup, I've told the manager to delay our shooting for today. The director is not happy though but your health is our priority right now. We'll deal with them later." Yunho widened his eyes as he remembered about their schedule that day and stopped his acting. "Oh my god! I forgot about our schedule today, hyung! I'm so sorry! I'm not sick! I was just acting!" Yunho said and bit his lips when he saw the others were looking at him with wide eyes before it turned into disappointment.

"What?!"

"You're not sick??"

"Hongjoong had been fighting with the manager to cancel our shooting today, pup.. For 1 whole hour.."

"How could you do this, pup?? We're going to have to cramp our shooting because of you!"

"If you were really sick, we won't even mind about the cramp shooting that we will have to do later but this is just.. Urgh.. I don't even know what to say.."

"Seriously, hyung.. How could you forget about today's schedule..?"

"Bub... Why did you do this today.. We were worried to death.. To think that you were actually faking it.. You disappoint me greatly, bub.. "

"I-I'm sorry.. I totally forgot about it.. I thought we had an off day today and that the shooting is tomorrow.." Yunho tried to explain but the others won't forgive him easily. "W-we could still go..?" Yunho tried again but Hongjoong hissed at him right after he said that. "It's not that easy, pup! I just told them that you're sick and won't be capable of shooting today and after 1 hour they reluctantly agreed to do the shooting tomorrow and they had already packed and went home! If we told them that we could shoot today, it will bring more trouble to them! Not to mention, ATEEZ and KQ will look bad!"

Yunho blinked at the realization and lowered his gaze to the floor. "I'm so sorry, guys.. I really did forget.. I didn't want this to happen.. Really.." Yesoang huffed, crossing his arms over his shoulder as he glared at the taller. "Well, it's too late now, pup. I can't believe you pulled this stunt.. You didn't think it through when you had this idea of faking sick, did you?" Yunho bit his lips again, shaking his head slowly as he played with the hem of his shirt. "N-no I didn't.. I'm sorry.." Yunho apologized again but everyone just couldn't forgive him yet and told him off again.

"No wonder you didn't want your inhaler.. Usually you would want it whenever you're feeling sick.. I should've known.." Mingi shook his head in disappointment, making Yunho felt guiltier and small. "It's going to be tough tomorrow.. We would've felt fine if you're not faking it.. Now I can't stop thinking on how tomorrow's schedule will take a toll on us and it isn't even worth it." Wooyoung huffed and Yunho could only stay silent, knowing how he is at fault here. For the rest of the day, no one want to talk to Yunho and the latter stayed in his room, not even going outside to eat with them as he felt very guilty and vowed to himself that he would do most of the job tomorrow to spare his members as much as he could form the tiring filming.

It was already past midnight and everyone had gone to sleep but Yunho couldn't sleep and stared at the upper bunk bed's rails, beating himself up over and over again before falling asleep when they only had one hour of sleep left. Yunho groaned when he felt someone shook him and opened his eyes slowly only to feel his head throbbed violently. He winced and Jongho frowned, thinking that Yunho was faking again just to make the members feel pity towards him. "Please don't, hyung. You will only make the other hyungs more upset if you're trying to act like you're really sick today.. I don't want them to be more upset towards you. Just.. Please.. Okay?" Jongho pleaded softly and Yunho was about to tell him that he's not faking it this time but stopped himself and suppressed the headache before nodding his head.

"S-sorry. I won't do it again. I promise." Yunho mumbled quietly as his own voice was hurting his head and Jongho told him to get ready as the manager is on the way to pick them up. Yunho slowly got up and went to shower. Only in the bathroom did he show his pain. Scrunching up his face and coughed when he felt his chest tightened for a bit. His asthma only triggered when he's sick and on the verge of getting a fever, making Yunho sighed. This is what I deserved after pulling that stunt yesterday. Stupid Yunho.. Yunho thought sadly and began to shower.

Yunho wore his most thick sweater and he was grateful that it's winter right now so the members won't question him about his clothes. He also had brought his inhaler that he had put it in his backpack when Jongho wasn't looking. The members still refused to talk to him that morning and Yunho pouted a little when they blatantly ignored him when he tried talking to them but he knew he deserved that so he opted to stay quiet for the whole ride to the shooting venue. He coughed when he was out of the van once they arrived, making the others glare at him so he stuttered out panicky, "S-something is stuck in my t-throat." Yunho sighed when the others only nodded their heads curtly and walked to where they were being ushered to.

Hongjoong had apologized to the crew and they bowed down before they started the shoot. 4 hours into the shooting, Yunho struggled to concentrate as his headache became worse and his chest kept on tightening, making him struggling to control his breaths but he pushed through. Yunho also had done most of what the crew told them to do the most, in hope that his members would forgive him as he took most of the tiring things, himself. Every difficult game, he played it as best as he could and tried to win for them. Yunho had coughed a few times, subtly of course as he didn't want his members to know about it but it gradually became harder to hide it and he couldn't really hide his shivering because of his fever that had worsened, so he only prayed that no one catches on.

Just a little bit more, Yunho-ah. You can do it. Endure it. You can do this. Yunho thought as he struggled to stay conscious and concentrate on the shooting. Mingi glanced towards Yunho who was sitting next to him when he heard Yunho wheezed, feeling a bit worried as he could actually see how pale Yunho had gotten since they started shooting hours ago. He couldn't really get mad that long towards his boyfriend so he quietly nudged the taller and asked him quietly. "Are you okay? Why are you wheezing just now?" Yunho tensed when Mingi asked him that but he couldn't really trust his voice at the moment so he only nodded his head a little, giving Mingi a somewhat assuring smile to make it seem like he's fine.

Mingi didn't believe him though because to be honest, he had seen how Yunho was struggling when they were playing the games that the crew had given them. He saw how Yunho stumbled and staggered a few times but the taller one was quick to laugh and made some excuses that made the crew laugh and waved the concern away. Did he actually feel sick for real today? Mingi thought as he remembered how Yunho usually will beat himself up every time he disappoints his members and wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Did he bring his inhaler? I'll ask him later after the shoot ends. Mingi said to himself and they quickly finished their shoot.

Yunho had started shivering and wheezing but he tried to quieten his wheeze as best as he could until the shoot ends and after the director had clapped the slate, Yunho stood up with trembling legs and rushed to one of his managers as he thought that if he told his members, they would just be upset again and he desperately need his inhaler and didn't want the members to yell at him. Yunho had wheezed out loudly, clutching on his chest as he could feel his throat closed up and the tightening sensation in his chest, blurrily trying to reach his manager with his consciousness slipping away but he didn't want to give up.

"Good work everyone!" The director had said and Yunho rushed shakily to his manager whilst Mingi watched him with a frown on his face and quickly tailed the taller. The others had raised one of their eyebrows when they saw Yunho stumbling towards the crew as their managers were standing at the back but they didn't move from their spot except for Mingi who was becoming worried towards his bub. Yunho however, couldn't reach his manager on time as he collapsed to the ground, wheezing and coughing as he doubled over while clutching his shirt over his chest and clawing at his throat when he couldn't get the oxygen in anymore.

The crew near him widened their eyes before rushing to the fallen boy as Yunho's manager ran towards him from the back when he saw Yunho had collapsed. Mingi had also rushed to Yunho once he saw the taller had collapsed to the ground. "Hyung! Get Yunho's inhaler! I think it's in his backpack!" Mingi yelled and the manager turned and ran to get Yunho's inhaler as Mingi propped Yunho up and onto his lap. Yunho wheezed and coughed but soon the cough stopped but he kept on wheezing as he tried to suck in the oxygen he desperately needed. Mingi ran his hand on Yunho's back and chest, in hope that it could help Yunho for a bit while the other members had caught up that Yunho wasn't faking and rushed towards them.

"He's burning up.. Bub, can you hear me?" Mingi said to the others before asking Yunho softly and the latter nodded his head curtly while still wheezing and had clutched Mingi's pants but he is on the verge of fainting at the moment. He could only open his eyes halfway and couldn't really comprehend his surroundings but he did hear Mingi. "He's not going to last at this rate. Where's the manager??" Seonghwa said, looking around before he saw the manager was rushing towards them with the inhaler in his hand. Mingi grabbed the inhaler as the manager handed it to him and quickly pumped it into Yunho's mouth.

After a few puffs, Yunho finally stopped wheezing but he was beyond exhausted and his head still hurts so he laid his head on Mingi's shoulder, closing his eyes while still breathing heavily but at least he could breathe again. Jongho crouched down beside Mingi, looking at Yunho with a guilty expression as he held Yunho's hands. "I'm sorry, hyung.. I thought you were faking it again this morning.. I should've checked on you properly.." Jongho said as the other looked at him. "What happened actually, Jongie-ah?" Hongjoong asked and Jongho explained to them and they nodded their heads slowly.

"It's f-fine.. It w-was my fault anyway y-yesterday.." Yunho said quietly, making all of them sighed softly. Mingi kept on running his hand on Yunho's back as their managers talked with each other on what to do. The others had crouched down near Yunho and Mingi as they patted Yunho's head, arms and legs. "Maybe we're a bit harsh on you yesterday, pup. We're sorry.." San said and Yunho gave them a small soft smile though he is still closing his eyes. "It's o-okay.. I'm s-sorry for what I d-did yesterday.. I w-won't do it again.." Yunho mumbled tiredly, snuggling even closer into Mingi's embrace as he felt colder by the minute and had started shivering again. "Since the filming is done now, we can go home. We'll stop for a while at the hospital so they can check on Yunho. Let's go boys." Their manager finally concluded their decision and the others nodded their heads.

They bow down to the crew before going to their vans as Mingi holds Yunho in his embrace, carefully getting into the van, being mindful not to jostle Yunho too much. Hongjoong and Wooyoung had climbed into the same van as Yunho and Mingi while the others got into the other van. "Boys, do you want to follow Yunho to the hospital or we go straight home?" The manager asked San, Seonghwa, Jongho and Yeosang as he started the van. "Follow!" They said in unison and the manager nodded his head with a fond smile on his face.

"You guys are not upset with him any longer? We didn't know that he was faking sick yesterday though." The manager said as they followed the other van. "How could we be upset any longer when he looked like that, hyung..? It's fortunate that he brought his inhaler because usually he wouldn't even bother to remember to bring it when he was sick before because he knew we would make sure that we would bring his inhaler.." Yeosang sighed. "We didn't tell you guys because we didn't want him to be scolded again as we had scolded him so much yesterday and ignored him for the whole day.." San said before Seonghwa remembered something. "Ah! He didn't even leave his room to eat at all yesterday.. I think that was why he ended up sick today.." Seonghwa sighed softly and Jongho also remembered something, "I think Yunho hyung didn't sleep last night too.. Keep hearing him turning and tossing.."

"That must be why he fell sick today, then.." Yeosang sighed and the others could only nod their heads softly. "Let's just take care of him." Seonghwa said and the others quickly agreed.

Yunho woke up to a white surrounding.

He blinked his eyes slowly, adjusting to the white light before looking around and he was startled when Mingi suddenly appeared in his vision, making him jump before pouting at his boyfriend. "You surprised me, Min.." Yunho whined softly and Mingi planted a soft kiss on Yunho's forehead, in an act of apologizing for surprising his bub. "I'm sorry, bub. You were asleep for 3 hours. I was just excited to see that you're finally awake." Mingi explained as he ran his hand through Yunho's soft locks. Yunho widened his eyes when he heard Mingi say that he had been sleeping for 3 hours, "What? I slept that long??" Mingi nodded and he helped Yunho to sit on the bed when Yunho tried to raise himself up.

"Do I have to stay here..? I wanna go back home.." Yunho pouted and only realized that he's been wearing the oxygen mask. Yunho crossed his eyes to see the oxygen mask and groaned before looking at Mingi. "How long do I have to wear this, Min?" Yunho asked. "Hmm, another 10 minutes, bub. They will discharge you once you're finished with the oxygen. They will let you rest at home but the doctor will refrain you from any schedules for 1 week." Mingi said, eliciting another whine from the taller. "No.... But our schedule....." Mingi sighed, giving Yunho a small fond smile as he caressed Yunho's cheek with his thumb. "I told you your health is our priority, pup. We don't want you to relapse. You gave us quite a scare tonight. You endured your asthma for more than 5 hours and if we were a bit late, we could lose you. Not to mention that none of us brought some spare inhalers and I was relieved when you did bring one. I was only guessing, telling hyung to fetch your inhaler in your backpack." Mingi explained as Yunho pouted again.

"I had a minor attack this morning.. That was why I thought of bringing it to the shoot.. That's all.. If I didn't pulled that stupid stunt yesterday, these wouldn't even happen.. I deserve what I've been going through today.."

"Hey, don't say that, bub. No one deserves to be in that much pain and you endured it for hours. I'm at fault too, bub."

"Hm? What do you mean? It's no one's fault but mine."

Mingi sighed, pinching Yunho's cheek lightly, eliciting a yelp from the taller and a pout. "Stop blaming yourself, baby. We already forgave you for what you've done yesterday. I saw some changes in you when we were shooting and I should've checked you over when I sensed that something was wrong with you but I didn't and waited until the shoot was over but I was too late at the time." Yunho sighed softly before he coughed as he felt like his chest tightening again. Clutching his shirt, he paled and looked over to Mingi with wide eyes. Mingi quickly pushed the button, calling for the nurse before sitting beside Yunho and started running his hand on his back and chest.

The nurse quickly rushed into the room and checked Yunho over before rushing out of the ward for a few minutes and came in again. She put the medicine into Yunho's IV drip and told the sick boy, "Yunho-ssi, your asthma triggered again because you're in a stressful situation. Please try calming yourself down." She said and left the ward. Yunho sighed, feeling his chest open up again as Mingi caressed his waist gently. "You're stressed because of the schedules that you can't go, aren't you?" Mingi asked softly, rubbing his cheek on Yunho's temple as the latter nodded sadly. "I'm making it hard for ATEEZ and KQ again.." Yunho pouted and Mingi quickly hugged Yunho gently, kissing his cheek for a few times until Yunho ended up giggling.

"You're not making it hard for us, bub. Don't worry. The schedules are mostly just some simple interviews, dancing and singing practices and some radio shows. No performance of some sort so it's fine. Really. Stop worrying. You should be resting, both physically and mentally so you could come back healthier and stronger." Mingi said softly, comforting the sick boy and Yunho finally relented and nodded his head while sighing softly. "Okay.. If you say so.. B-but then I have to stay at home alone most of the time.. Right..? I don't like being alone.." Yunho pouted and Mingi caressed his hair softly.

"You're not going to be alone. The doctor had told us someone will have to watch over you in case something happened. We'll take turns and make sure that someone will stay with you all the time, so you won't be alone, bub."

"Oh? Then I'm good! As long as I'm not going to be all alone at home!" Yunho beamed up, making Mingi shook his head at the sudden changes in his mood. "All of us had decided to always bring your inhaler even if you're not sick, each one of us will have one in our backpack so the manager had bought more inhalers." Mingi said and Yunho hummed before tilting his head curiously. "Oh right, where are the others? At home?" Yunho asked and before Mingi could answer, the door to the ward slid open, making both Yunho and Mingi look over to the door.

"Pup! You're awake!" Wooyoung said and pounced Yunho on the bed, though he was mindful with Yunho's IV drip on his left hand and the oxygen mask. Yunho giggled, letting Wooyoung hugged him as the others calmly walked closer to his bed as they patted his head, arm and back. "How are you feeling, pup?" Hongjoong asked softly and Yunho nodded his head with a smile before pouting, making the other members frown in worry. "I'm fine, hyung. I'm sorry.. I ended up making more work for you guys and KQ.." All of them sighed when Yunho said that and Wooyoung was quick to kiss Yunho's cheek before speaking, "Stop with that already. We're not angry or upset towards you anymore. It's enough of a punishment for you tonight."

Yunho pouted but he didn't say anything anymore and just played with his hands that were laying on top of his blanket. The doctor then came into the ward, giving them a small bow and smile, walking towards Yunho. "Hello Yunho-ssi. How are you feeling right now?" The doctor asked and Yunho straightened up before answering with a small smile. "I'm feeling fine, doctor." The doctor hummed, checking his vitals and his chest with the stethoscope. "Your fever is still high though but you're not wheezing anymore. You can rest at home. Make sure to eat your medicine on time and rest well. Please refrain from doing any of your idol jobs for a week. I'll go sign the discharge paper now."

They thanked the doctor and Yunho clawed the oxygen mask off of his face as he laid his head on Mingi's shoulder and let Wooyoung cuddle up with him as they waited for the discharge paper to be signed.

Mingi gently put Yunho down on the couch in the living room, threading his fingers through Yunho's lock and kissed his forehead before turning around to look at San. "His medicine is in another 2 hours. Make sure you feed him first and I'll put the inhaler here on the table in case he needs it. This is his blanket and this is an extra one if he feels colder." Mingi babbled, making San huffed lightly before nodding his head and pushing Mingi towards the door. "Yes yes. I know, Min. Don't worry. I'll take good care of the pup. Now go to your schedule. He'll be fine." Mingi chuckled sheepishly and looked back at Yunho once more before he walked out of the dorm as his manager was waiting downstairs.

San shook his head in amusement before sighing softly, walking towards Yunho, who was fast asleep on the couch and felt his forehead. "Still warm. A wet towel could help." San said quietly to himself and went to wet the towel in the bathroom. San put the wet towel on Yunho's forehead, making the latter flinch from the sudden coldness and opened his eyes slowly, whining as soon as he realized that San had put the wet towel on his forehead and was trying to flick it off of his forehead. "No, pup. That stays on your forehead." San stopped Yunho from throwing away the wet towel, eliciting another whine from the latter.

"But it's cold, Sannie.. I don't wanna.." Yunho pouted and looked at San with wide puppy eyes and with him having his fever right now, he really looked like a kicked puppy, making San gulped and was this close to give in but he stopped himself from doing so and sat on the couch, near Yunho's waist instead. "Do you want to get better or not, pup?" San started and Yunho instantly pouted at him before sighing and tugging on San's arm. "Fine.. Cuddle with me then? I'm cold.." San nodded his head, happily obliged Yunho's request and laid down beside him.

Yunho wiggled around for a while before putting his head on San's chest and wrapped his arm around San's waist before sighing in relief as his cold diminished for a bit. "You're so warm Sannie.. It feels good.." Yunho sighed and yawned when he felt sleepy again and San smiled softly at him, caressing his hair to lull him to sleep. "Go back to sleep, pup. I'll wake you when you have to eat your food and medicine." Yunho nodded quietly, closing his eyes and with San playing with his hair, he fell asleep soon after.

--

"Sangie.. Why aren't you in bed..?" Yunho pouted as he rubbed his eyes with his fists, leaning against the kitchen wall. Yeosang turned around, looking a bit apologetically before he went up to the taller, caressing his hair gently. "I'm sorry, pup. I was just putting and washing your porridge bowl and I was about to go back to your room." Yeosang explained as Yunho was still pouting, making Yeosang giggled and hugged him, running his hand on Yunho's back. "I'm sorry, pup. Do you want to go back to bed?" Yunho hummed, wrapping his arms around Yeosang as he shook his head.

"I'm not sleepy anymore. Can we go sit in the living room?" Yeosang nodded his head, pulling away from Yunho and grabbed Yunho's wrist gently, pulling him into the living room. "No games though, okay? We can watch some movies instead." Yesoang said as they flopped down onto the couch, making Yunho whine again. "Aww.. Only for a while? Please? Sangieeeee..." Yeosang huffed, shaking his head firmly, making Yunho throw a tantrum on the couch, flailing his arms and legs before wincing and stopping because the movements made his head hurt.

"See? No. No games. If I let you play some games, your fever will worsen again and do you want that?" Yeosang said and Yunho shook his head slowly as he didn't want to make his head hurt even more. Yeosang sighed when he saw Yunho's sad face and caressed his head softly. "You can play after you're well again, okay pup? For now.. Let's watch spiderman. How about that?" Yeosang comforted him and Yunho beamed up, nodding his head and Yeosang smiled, opening the Spiderman movie on the tv.

4 hours into the 2nd movie, Yeosang felt Yunho slumped on his shoulder so he gently looked over to his right and smiled when he saw Yunho had fallen asleep. He reached for the remote that was beside him and closed the movie before gently held Yunho's head and put it on the pillow that was on the couch. Yeosang then pulled up Yunho's legs onto the couch before fetching his blanket, draping it on Yunho gently. Giving one last caress on Yunho's hair, Yeosang sat down on the floor and began to play with his phone while he waited for the others to come back home.

--

Jongho startled awake when he heard Yunho cough, quickly getting down from his bunk bed, he switched on the light before rushing to Yunho who was having a coughing fit and ran his hand on Yunho's back. Jongho quickly fetched Yunho's inhaler on the desk near their bed when he heard Yunho started to wheeze. Jongho helped Yunho with the inhaler and Yunho stopped wheezing after a few puffs, sighing softly as he closed his eyes and lay his head on Jongho's shoulder, exhausted. The door to their door opened a few seconds later, Seonghwa rushed inside to Yunho and asked Jongho what happened.

"I'm not sure, hyung. Yunho hyung was sleeping a while ago." Jongho said and looked at Yunho's face who had paled for a bit. "Pup? What's wrong?" Seonghwa started, putting his hand on Yunho's forehead before humming. "Hmm, your fever is still the same as this morning though. What trigger your asthma attack?" Seonghwa asked and Yunho shivered, wrapping his arms around Jongho's waist as he buried his face in Jongho's neck.

Jongho and Seonghwa looked at each other in worry before Jongho realized something. "Oh.. Did you have a bad dream, hyung?" Jongho asked softly and he felt Yunho nodded in his neck as Seonghwa looked at him fondly, threading his hand through Yunho's hair. "Oh pup.. It's okay.. It's just a bad dream.. It's not real.." Seonghwa comforted Yunho as the latter grabbed Seonghwa's arm, wanting to be close to him as he tried to forget his induced fever dream. Seonghwa kept caressing Yunho's hair as Jongho ran his hand on Yunho's back before Seonghwa came up with an idea.

"How about I lay some comforter here and we can all sleep together?" Seonghwa suggested and Yunho nodded his head quietly, still not pulling away from Jongho and Seonghwa patted Yunho's hand that was still grabbing his, "I'll go set the comforter, pup." Seonghwa said and went out of the room to go get the comforter. Once Seonghwa had laid the comforter on the floor, he grabbed the pillows on both Yunho's and Jongho's bed, putting it on the comforter as Jongho gently helped Yunho to lay on it. Jongho and Seonghwa both laid beside the tallest, letting him be at the center and caressed Yunho, lulling him back to sleep as they drifted to sleep as well.

--

Yunho pants, breathing heavily as he clutched his stomach before he gagged and threw up in the toilet bowl as Wooyoung massaged Yunho's nape while Hongjoong ran his hand on Yunho's back. "I hate this..." Yunho whined before gagging and throwing up again as Hongjoong and Wooyoung sighed softly though they were worried. "What happened, hyung..? He was getting better and suddenly his fever went up again this morning and wouldn't stop puking.." Woyoung mumbled softly to Hongjoong as the latter could only shrug, looking at Yunho while frowning in worry.

"I'm not sure either, Woo. We did everything right. We gave him the medicine on time and all.." Hongjoong said and staggered for a bit before he steadied himself when Yunho suddenly leaned onto his legs. "Pup? Are you done?" Hongjoong asked, holding Yunho's head with both of his hands as Yunho nodded his head tiredly. "Let's go wash your mouth, pup." Hongjoong said while signaling to Wooyoung to help him pick Yunho up. As they are a lot shorter than Yunho, they struggled for a bit as Yunho doesn't have any energy to hold himself up but they managed and dragged the sick boy towards the sink and helped him wash his mouth.

"Come on, pup. Let's go to your bed." Hongjoong said softly, eliciting a whine from the younger. "No.. I want Mingi... Where is he...? Why hasn't he come back yet..? I want him..." Yunho started to sob, making both Wooyoung and Hongjoong panic as they didn't want for Yunho to trigger his asthma attack again. "Calm down, pup. Mingi is on his way home, I promise. He'll be back soon." Wooyoung comforted him but the older won't have it as he threw a tantrum right in the hallway as they struggle to drag him to his room.

"NO! I WANT MINGI!!!" Yunho burst out crying before whimpering, pressing his hand on his temple as his head throbbed violently. Hongjoong and Wooyoung wanted to cry to as Yunho had been cranky since his fever worsen and they widened their eyes when they heard the door opened, in hope that it was Mingi as they don't know what to do at this point as Yunho just won't comply to any of their words anymore. "Mingi?? Is that you?? Please let that be you!!" Wooyoung hissed and Mingi who had just entered the living room raised one of his eyebrows before walking to where he heard Wooyoung.

"What happened?" Mingi said, rushing to them as he saw Yunho close to fainting and the duo struggling to keep him upright. Yunho whimpered when he heard Mingi and whined for him. "Min... Min...." Mingi quickly held Yunho, picking him up by the thighs as Yunho weakly wrapped his legs around Mingi's waist as he buried his head in Mingi's neck, shivering violently. "Shush shush.. I'm here I'm here.. Calm down, bub.." Mingi consoled the obviously distressed sick boy as he looked at Hongjoong and Wooyoung with a worried frown on his face.

"His fever went up again this morning and he only get to keep him food and medicine down for 1 hour. I think we were mostly in the bathroom today. I don't know what's going on, Mingi-ah. We did what you told us to do but his fever just won't lower down." Hongjoong explained as Wooyoung ran his hand on Yunho's back. Mingi hummed, "I see.. Hm.. I'm sorry that you guys had to deal with that.. I'll take care of him now. If he worsened again, I'll call manager hyung to take him to the hospital." Mingi said, chuckling a bit at the relief faces of the duo when he said that he'll take over.

"Don't laugh at us! You don't know how hard it is for us! Why did the others get to take care of Yunho easily?? This is not fairrr! We wanted to cuddle him all day long but he just couldn't stop puking!" Wooyoung whined, making Mingi laugh even more before Yunho whimpered, already delirious from his worsen fever and Mingi shushed him softly again. "Get some rest, you guys. Thank you for taking care of him. We'll be in my room." Mingi said and went to his room, putting Yunho on his bed gently.

Yunho instantly whined, wanting Mingi close and Mingi sighed softly, kissing his warm forehead. "I'm going to get a wet towel, bub. I'll be back real quick." MIngi said and rushed to fetch the wet towel as Yunho whined pitifully on the bed, curling up on himself as he felt colder by the minute. Mingi went back to his room quickly, uncurling Yunho and put the wet towel on his forehead. He fetched Yunho's inhaler, putting it on the bed where he could grab it easily if Yunho had another attack before sliding himself beside Yunho.

Lucky that I took a shower at KQ before going back here Mingi thought as he pulled Yunho close and the latter instantly buried his face in Mingi's chest, wrapping his arm around Mingi's waist and tangling their legs together. Mingi massaged Yunho's head while his other hand caressing Yunho's waist and Yunho breathed out when his headache diminished slowly. "Better?" Mingi asked softly and Yunho nodded his head, his eyes closed as he tried to get some sleep as he was exhausted from all the puking he had done for the day. "Sleep, bub." Mingi said and Yunho fell asleep within minutes.

Luckily, Yunho's fever broke that night and he didn't have any attack or puking anymore and they slept peacefully until morning. Yunho stirred from his sleep, yawning and stretching and felt Mingi kissed his temple. "Morning, bub. It seems that your fever had broken." Mingi said as he felt Yunho's forehead and didn't feel the unusual warmth anymore. "I'm feeling better. I didn't know what happened yesterday though.." Yunho pouted, making Mingi chuckled and shrugged. "Maybe your fever just wanted to make Wooyoung and Hongjoong's day a bit tough." Mingi said before yelping slightly when Yunho slapped him lightly on the chest.

"Hey..Not funny, okay.. Poor them yesterday.. I was very cranky yesterday.. Maybe I'll cuddle them all day today to make it up for yesterday. You guys don't have any schedule today, right?" Yunho asked and Mingi nodded his head, threading his fingers through Yunho's lock. "They would be delighted, bub. I'm just glad that your fever is gone now. I missed your bubbly self." Mingi sighed and Yunho giggled, kissing Mingi's cheek and buried his head in Mingi's neck as he cuddled him close.

"Me too but right now I still want to cuddle with you. Woo and Joongie hyung can wait." Yunho said as Mingi chuckled, hugging Yunho even tighter as they cuddled for 2 more hours.
