Jisung's POV.:
I was just brushing my teeth, when I suddenly felt really sick. Quickly dropping my toothbrush, I gripped the sink and gagged harshly over it but nothing came up. My stomach was in knots and my mouth watered. I decided my teeth were clean enough, put the toothbrush away and rinsed my mouth. Along with the nausea, a dull pain settled around my navel. Thinking I probably just had to go, I sat on the toilet for a while but nothing would happen. I realized that I had occupied the bathroom for quite a while now, so I quickly finished up and walked to my room, so the others could get ready for the day. We'd first have dance practice and then a fansign afterwards, so I put on loose sweatpants, hoping to minimize the pressure around my middle. The pain wasn't too bad but the nausea certainly was a nuisance. It's not like I wasn't used to it though, my anxiety often times messing with my stomach. Today was different though, I could tell. I hung out on my bed with the trash can pulled close just in case, while waiting for my friends, so we could head out. Way too soon, Chan called us to leave and I sighed following them to practice. I certainly didn't feel like dancing right now but I really needed to improve, besides I didn't want to speak up because they would probably be annoyed at me for always complaining. Sure, anxiety wasn't fun but I felt like I complained way too much when my stomach bothered me from stress, so I wanted it to be different today.

Practice went well, despite the ache in my abdomen. At this point, I was sure I'd throw up eventually but nothing had happened so far. I had mapped out my emergency plan, visualized the route to the closest bathroom down the hallway and memorized the location of the room's trashcan, in case I wouldn't be able to make it. With the pain grew the anxiety, or was it the other way around? My gut told me that something wasn't right but I pushed the feeling back down, it was probably just nerves due to the fansign later. "Jisung-ah, you need to focus, you're constantly missing the beat", Chan startled me from my thoughts. I sighed and got back to my starting position, preparing for another run through: "Sorry hyung, I'll do better." Giving it my all, I managed to stay on beat the next time, although my head was spinning afterwards and all the jumping around had turned the dull pain in my stomach into a sharp stabbing. Apparently, Chan and Minho were finally satisfied with our dancing and told us to go wash up before we'd be picked up to go to the fansign event. I suppressed a wince when another cramp twisted my intestines and hid my face by pretending to wipe away the sweat. Walking had started to become a bit difficult, so I was lagging behind a bit. Felix slowed down a bit to let me catch up before starting to ramble about how excited he was to meet Stay again. I gave him a tired smile, though I wasn't entirely sure it really reached my eyes. The Aussie trailed off mid-sentence and frowned at me: "Are you ok? Nervous?" – "Kinda", I admitted, glancing at the ground. "Does your stomach hurt again?", he asked, pointing at the arm I had subconsciously wrapped around my middle. 'Damn, I really am awesome at hiding stuff. Why do they always have to notice how weak I am?' I nodded ashamed, still avoiding his eyes: "Sorry, I know I'm to much of a baby. I don't want to hold y'all back." – "Hey, you're not a baby. I'll make you some tea while you shower, yeah? You'll be fine", my dongsaeng promised and I gave him a grateful smile.

Felix really kept his promise and as soon as we were back at the dorm, he set about making a cup of chamomile tea while I went to the bathroom. My shower turned out rather short, since I spent more time on the toilet, still hoping the pain would get better once I go. The nausea was ever-present at the back of my throat but I couldn't throw up. Quickly drying off, I met Felix in my room. He had placed my favorite cup onto my desk before leaving to take a shower himself. I thanked him quietly and he hugged me on his way out. Changing into my outfit for the fansign, I let the tea cool down and searched my drawers for some anti-emetics because if there was something I did not want to happen, it was throwing up in front of a crowd of people. I used the warm tea to rinse down the pill and settled back on my bed till we'd have to leave. Scrolling through my phone, I slowly sipped the tea and waited for either the tea or the medicine to sooth my upset stomach. The pain had shifted from where it had lingered around my navel. I felt like there was a knife stuck in my lower right side. Still dwelling on my misery, I was startled by a knock on my door. "Yeah?" In walked Chan, taking a seat next to me. "Hey, you ok? Lix told me you weren't feeling your best", the leader asked, "is it nerves?" I shrugged, slightly annoyed at myself for not being able to keep my problems to myself: "Probably, Lixxie made me some tea, it'll be fine." It was a lie but I didn't want to worry my leader by saying it felt wrong, really wrong. "Alright, don't you want to sit with us in the living room? Maybe we can distract you a bit", my hyung offered and I let him walk me to the living room. For a while, I sat between Changbin and Hyunjin, smiling along with their bickering but trying to avoid laughing, as it hurt to bad.
