You Faint (Hoseok and Namjoon)
You hadnāt eaten enough that day. Ā Or the past few days for that matter. Ā Or slept. Ā Work and school and everything in between had been getting to you. Ā But youād been managing to get everything together, and put on a controlled face for your boyfriend. Ā If he had any idea how overworked you were lately, he would be so madā¦
Fortunately, he seemed to have not picked up on your poor eating and sleeping habits lately. Ā Since he and the boys were so busy preparing for their next comeback, he didnāt notice when you went to bed too late (since he was also crawling into bed not long after) and he ate most of his meals at the studio.
Today, your first day off in a long while, you had planned to catch up on sleep. Ā But your boyfriend had invited you to the studio to see some of the music and dances they would be performing for the comeback, and you didnāt want to pass up a chance to finally spend time with him. Ā Not to mention you were excited for the new music!
But now that you were here, you were questioning the decision to get out of bed. Ā You hadnāt taken the time to eat breakfast, after having that habit for weeks, and when you thought back, you werenāt sure if youād had more than a few bites of dinner last night. Ā Under the bright practice room lights, you felt yourself start to sweat.
The guys were in the middle of doing some warm-ups and stretching, and you saw your boyfriend flash you a smile and a cheeky thumbs up. Ā You tried to return it and stood to go grab a water bottle from the cooler in the corner. Ā As you took one step, your head began spinning. Ā Your heart was pounding and a cold sweat was broken out over every part of your body. Ā It almost felt like you were going to be sick, and thenāoh no. Ā
You realized right as your vision started to blur and blacken at the corners what was happening. Ā You felt your legs give out, causing you to fall to the hard studio floor, completely unconscious.
Hoseok looked over his shoulder at you again, just in time to see you start to fall.Ā There was no hesitation as he immediately broke into a sprint towards you, the cellphone he had been holding clattering to the ground.Ā Ā āJagi,ā he gasped, falling to his hands and knees on the ground beside you.Ā He had no time for anyone else.Ā All the words and noise around him was imperceptible as he felt his entire world crumbling.
He grabbed your shoulders, shaking you.Ā Ā āJagi, wake up,ā he begged, barely feeling the tears rolling down his cheeks.Ā Someone tried to pull his arms away, but he struggled against it.Ā A split second later though, he stopped, letting the arms hold him, terrified of hurting you any further.Ā Ā āJagi,ā he sobbed.Ā Now, instead of fighting the arms wrapped around him, he curled into the warm embrace.
āItās okay, hyung,ā he heard Jungkookās voice in his ear.Ā The maknaeās arms squeezed him tight as Hoseok, through tear-blurred vision, watched others tend to you.Ā A staff member placed a cooling pack on your forehead, and another had elevated your feet to promote blood flow back to your head.Ā Ā
Jungkook gently swayed himself and Hoseok back and forth, in an attempt to comfort.Ā Ā āDid you cry this much when I passed out?ā he asked, trying to joke like usual to ease the tension.
Had it been anyone other than you, Hoseok might have been able to smile or laugh a bit.Ā But it was you, and all he could do was clutch Jungkookās arms as the maknae continued to squeeze him tightly from behind, half to restrain and half to comfort.
When your eyes started to flutter open again, a brand new wave of tears came flooding from Hoseok.Ā Ā āY/N,ā he sobbed, breaking free of Jungkook once again and throwing himself to your side.Ā His normally sunshiney face appeared in your line of sight.
āHobi,ā you said, reaching up to wipe a tear from his cheek.Ā Ā āWhy are you crying?Ā Donāt cry, what happened?ā
Hoseok sniffled and forced a tiny smile to his face.Ā He stroked your hair gently and thanked his stars, once again, for giving him someone as good as you.Ā Ā āYou just had a little fall, jagi,ā he murmured to you.Ā Ā āYou passed out a little.āĀ Ā
Your eyes darted from him to the others gathered around, then back to him.Ā Ā āOh,ā was all you could say.Ā You felt embarrassment and shame washing over you in hot waves.
āDonāt worry,ā Hoseok assured you, his tears now held back.Ā Ā āYouāll be just fine.Ā Youāve got me watching over you, after all.Ā And Iām not about to let my sunshine go out.ā
Namjoon couldnāt have moved faster to your side--well, he could have, but he tripped at least twice in his attempts to get all of his limbs up from the floor so fast.Ā When he made it over to you, he didnāt even say anything or kneel down beside you.Ā He stood there, both hands on his forehead, looking more scared than any of the members had ever seen him before.
Everyone else was doing something.Ā A staff member had run for the nurse and a first aid kit.Ā Hoseok was rolling up the sleeves of your hoodie in an attempt to cool you off, while Yoongi sat nearby waving a magazine like a fan.Ā Jimin held your head in his lap and was placing a cool pack onto your forehead.
Namjoon didnāt even hear as Seokjin tried to address him.Ā Ā āJoon, did she eat breakfast this morning?Ā Yah!Ā Namjoon,ā Seokjin shouted, giving his leader a small shove to gain his attention.Ā When Namjoonās eyes turned to him, Seokjin suddenly felt a tiny bit of regret for being so harsh.
The leaderās eyes had never been so wide and filled with fear.Ā Not before their debut, not when theyād first gone overseas, not even when theyād been the victims of thatĀ ākidnappingā prank so long ago.Ā This was a new, primal fear that Seokjin saw in Namjoonās eyes.
His world was falling apart right in front of him.
Seokjin immediately wrapped Namjoon in his arms.Ā Ā āItās okay,ā he said, holding his younger brother tightly.Ā There were so few times when Namjoon needed a hyung, and this was one of them.Ā Seokjin felt Namjoonās arms cling onto him and his body shake with sobs.Ā Ā āDonāt worry, Joonie, itāll be okay.ā
āNamjoon-hyung,ā Jimin said from the ground, and Namjoon pushed away from Seokjin quickly to see you stirring.Ā Now he fell to the ground beside you, feeling his heart beat again in his chest.Ā Jimin gestured that Namjoon take his place, and they gently shifted your head from one lap to another.
Your blurry eyes focused on Namjoonās face.Ā Ā āOppa, what happened?ā you asked.
After letting out a shaky breath and clearing his throat, Namjoon answered.Ā Ā āYou fainted, baby.ā
You nodded, slowly.Ā Thatās what you thought.Ā Ā āI guess you took care of me, huh?ā you teased quietly.Ā Ā āMy smart man knows everything to do.ā
Namjoon couldnāt help but chuckle quietly.Ā Ā āIāve never felt like I knew less,ā he admitted.Ā His fingers stroked loose strands of your hair from your face.Ā Ā āDonāt do that again, baby.Ā I was helpless, and I never want to be that way with you again.ā
