When You Take Care Of Him When Heβs Ill ~ Highlight Reaction
Your eyes looked across as Doojoon continued to shuffle in the bed beside you, unable to find a comfortable position for himself. βAre you alright?β
His eyes widened as he looked across to see that you were awake beside him. βIβm sorry, I just feel so unwell, I canβt find a way to get off to sleep at all tonight.β
βCan I do anything?β You offered, pressing your hand to his forehead to feel just how warm he was. βCan I get you a cold flannel or something, you feel a little hot right now.β
His head shook back at you, βI keep switching between hot and cold, my body just canβt seem to make its mind up. I donβt want to do aside from cry at this point to be honest with you.β
βItβll be alright,β you tried to assure him, offering him a weak smile, βwhy donβt you take the duvet off for now? We can swap in a blanket to try and cool you down a bit?β
βBut what about you?β He questioned as you tried to move the duvet away, βwonβt you get a little bit cold if you just sleep underneath a blanket?β
βIβd rather sleep under a blanket and know that youβre asleep too.β
βAre you sure?β He asked you softly, βyou donβt have to do such a kind thing just for me, Iβm sure that Iβll feel a bit better in the morning.β
βNo arguments, let go so I can look after you.β
You smiled softly as you walked into the apartment to see Yoseob still laid out across the sofa. βHow are you feeling?β You asked as you perched on the sofa.
His head shook as he wrapped the blanket that was draped over him further around his body. βRight now, it feels as if Iβve been knocked over by a giant truck.β
βWell, I stopped off at the shop on my way home,β you began to tell him, placing the bag on the floor, βgot a few little things that I thought might cheer you up a bit.β
The smile on his face slightly turned up as he peered into the bag, βyou didnβt have to do that, I donβt even know how much of that Iβll be able to keep down right now if Iβm honest with you.β
βItβs motivation to get better,β you suggested instead, βyou donβt have to eat it right now, but whenever your body feels ready, its there as a treat for you to enjoy.β
βYouβre always so kind to me,β he whispered with a groggy tone, βno one has ever looked after me so well before when Iβve been ill like this.β
βDo you want anything else? Cup of tea? Maybe some more soup?β
βCould I have a cup of tea?β Yoseob asked you, βIβm in a bit of a cold phase right now and could do with warming up a little bit.β
βIβm on it, you sit tight, and Iβll be back in a minute.β
Your head shook as you walked into the bedroom to see Gikwang wide awake. βI bought you up here because you were supposed to be trying to get some rest.β
Gikwang nodded as he lifted up the tissue beside him, βI was asleep, but did you not just here me have a giant sneezing fit, I made myself jump too Y/N.β
βYouβre impossible,β you laughed, sitting down on the end of the bed, βwhilst youβre awake, I was thinking of making some soup if you wanted some bringing up for you to eat?β
Gikwangβs head shook in reply to you, βI think I might try and close my eyes for another hour or so if you donβt mind. Would that soup still be available in maybe an hour when I wake up?β
βOf course,β you responded, resting your hand against his leg, βyou get as much sleep as you need, Iβll hold off on making the soup until you wake up so that it will be nice and warm.β
βI can eat now if you donβt want to wait,β Gikwang tried to assure you, but your head shook back at him, more than happy to be accommodating to him.
βIt can wait, it wonβt take a few minutes, I can prep it for now.β
βYouβre too good to me,β Gikwang smiled as you stood back up, βcome back up in an hour and wake me up if Iβm not awake already please.β
βIβll let you sleep for as long as you need to, donβt worry.β
You knocked gently on the bathroom door as you heard Dongwoon on the other side, slowly opening it up to see him over the toilet bowl. βYou good?β
He immediately cringed as he heard the sound of your voice, feeling terrible that you had spotted him in such a state. βI didnβt mean to disturb what you were doing.β
βYouβre not disturbing me, I was worried about you,β you smiled, taking a seat beside him, βare you alright? Do you need anything?β You asked, but his head shook back at you.
A sigh came from him as he slowly leant back against the side of the bathtub. βI donβt know what happened, one minute I felt fine and the next minute I just had to run across and get in here.β
βI think your body is exhausted,β you suggested, relaxing your hand against his leg, βyouβve been working so hard recently it wouldnβt surprise me if your body wanted to give up.β
βIβm sorry that you had to see me like this,β Dongwoon then added, sinking further down against the bath, βitβs not exactly my finest hour right now.β
βI donβt care how you look; I just want you to be alright.β
βIβll be good in a moment,β he assured you, βI think I just need to take it easy for a little while, I donβt really fancy being sick again.β
βLet me take care of you for a while Dongwoon.β
