Lost

◉ 6 ◉

Jungkook and his friends started visiting you frequently after that day and currently, you were enjoying a full course meal with them in a big restaurant.

"Thank you so much for the treat but we could eat in a simple restaurant too."

"Y/n ah, don't complain, eat up.", Taehyung softly pouted, making you chuckle.
You nodded.

The dinner was silent, no one dared to speak. It was getting awkward.
"The dinner is amazing!", you broke the silence.

Taehyung nodded and grinned and Namjoon let out a deep sigh followed by a chuckle. Jungkook didn't react at all. He just ate his food quietly.

"Jungkook ah, don't you like it?", Taehyung asked him.

"It was tasty.", he excused himself from the seat and headed to the restroom. Since morning, Jungkook was feeling unwell and this dinner wasn't helping at all. He felt more tired.

He couldn't refuse as it may seem rude so he gladly accepted the invitation but halfway through the ride to the restaurant, he felt uneasy and sleepy.

Jungkook was feeling under the weather, but he decided to ignore it and continue enjoying his time, but his state of illness and dizziness started to get worse.

You and the others stared blankly at his empty seat. You had an uneasy feeling and thus excused yourself from the table.

Entering the restroom, you splashed your face with some cold water and breathed out heavily. Something felt odd. You exited the restroom when someone held you by the wrist so dragged into a corner.

Before you realised it, you were dragged into the workers cleaning items part of the restroom. You looked at the man, who held you by the wrist, had a grin spread across his face. Disgusting.

You tried to break free from his grip but he only tightened it. Before you could scream, he placed his palm on your mouth, covering it. It was awful, how could some people be so disgusting.

Instinctively, you pushed his hand and slammed his fists on the wall. He winched in pain. How could you do that? Did you take that man down by yourself? You screamed and the man tried to grab you but you dodged his attack and attacked him instead.

How did you do that? Was it was some kind of muscle memory? Did you have that skill before? Anyhow, you were saved and you felt grateful that you knew some self-defence.

Jungkook came running after he heard your scream. He watched how you took that man down and how he shamelessly tried to grab you. Jungkook stood by your side.
"Y/n, are you hurt anywhere?"

"No, thank you for coming, Jungkook."

"Are you sure? Who is that man?"

"I don't know? He suddenly came and grabbed but thanks to some muscle memory, I managed to take him down."

Taehyung, Namjoon and others gathered around you and Jungkook. They were worried. They looked at the man lying in the corner.
"Y/n! Are you hurt?", without a second thought, Taehyung grabbed him but his collar and questioned you.

"I am fine, Taehyung." Taehyung didn't let go of him. The manager dialled the police and the man was arrested. You sighed in relief. The whole ride to the house, Jungkook stayed by you while Teahyung drove the car.

You were constantly stroking your wrists. The man rather held you too tight, it was aching. Jungkook watched you caressing your wrist. He slowly held your wrist.

"Does it hurt?", you were startled as he held your hand. His grip was soft and gentle. A feeling of safety and warmth spread through your body. You truly felt at ease. His hand was warm...but too warm and his breath was hot and heavy? His voice was raspy.

"A little."

Your wrist had red marks on it. It was a little swollen. Jungkook felt his blood boil and his head hurt.
"Y/n we'll dress the wound when we get home.", Taehyung said while driving.

"That bastard, how dare he.", Namjoon gritted his teeth.
"Do you want us to take care of him?", Taehyung glared at the road.

"What- What do you mean?"
"No-nothing, Y/n. Take care. I am the police will handle him.", Namjoon shot Taehyung a glare and he chuckled nervously.

You reached home. Jungkook told Taehyung and Namjoon to go off and he would dress your wound. They both agreed and went to their house.

Jungkook gently dressed your wrist. It hurt a little but in the end, it was all fine.
"Thank you, Jungkook for coming.", you flashed him a small smile.

"I am happy that you are alright."

Jungkook smiled lightly and got up when he felt a sting in his head. He felt dizzy and slightly collapsed. His body felt heavy.

"Jungkook! Are you okay?", you quickly held him and seated him on his bed. His body was boiling, his breath was unsteady. You had noticed it in the car, when he held your hand, he had a fever from the very beginning.

He felt his vision blurred and his body heavy. He felt it hard to get up. He was feeling unwell since morning and due to his ignorance to take the medicine, his condition worsen.

You got up and let him rest in bed. You got an ice pack from his fridge. Hope he didn't mind that you wandered around his house.

You touched his forehead and it was flaming. Jungkook lay silently on the bed, his eyes still heavy. They were burning, he couldn't open them.

"Don't worry, Jungkook. I'll search for some medicine here."

"It is in the third drawer near the bed.", he spoke rashly.

You gave him the medicine.
"I will cook you some ginseng chicken soup."

"No need."

"Stop being childish about your health."

"I am really fine, it's just a little fever. You don't need to care too much."

"Why are you being so ignorant? I am putting some soup on the stove. Don't be childish."

"You are being childish here, Y/n."
"Says the one, who can't get up."

He sighed in defeat. "Do you have the ingredients?"
"I mean, I checked your refrigerator and there seems everything I need for preparing ginseng soup."

You went to the kitchen to prepare some soup. Jungkook must get well soon. After about an hour, the soup was ready. You didn't add mushrooms as it would take a lot of time then.

Jungkook got up glaring at you. "Stop it and eat up.", you chuckled.

"How is it?"

"Good."

"What a dry answer but thank you.", Jungkook huffed.

"After drinking the soup, sleep. It's about to be midnight."
"If you need anything, you can call me."

"Are you staying here?"

"I think so, you don't want me to? I mean, it will invade your privacy but you need rest today."

"You should go."

"Hm, okay then. Rest well, Jungkook."
