THIRD PERSON's POV

He opened his eyes, letting his eyesight adjust to the bright light.

Numbness is felt around, he couldn't move an inch. Even closing his eyes is pretty painful to him. Moving his finger is stinging a lot, too much for him. He looks tortured and is just lucky enough to survive.

"J-Jung..kook.." he called out to someone, but no one answered. He endured the pain, turning his head to the side and there he saw his man sleeping peacefully with his head on top of the bed he's laying in.

A smile creeps out his lips as he tried to lift his hand to reach for him but unfortunately failed to do it when his hand suddenly started to hurt.

"Oh fuc-"

He didn't mean to shout though, it's just painful. Feels like pinching your fresh wound, imagine the pain.

Jungkook immediately jolted up in the middle of his peaceful time and went to check on Taehyung in an instant.

"Where does it hurt?" the younger asked in confusion before getting the ointment for his man's wound and got it in his hands in an instant.

Taehyung chuckled, holding on to his arms. He shuts off his eyes tightly, biting his lips, and gripped Jungkook's hands firmly before guiding himself to sit down, leaning on the headboard of the bed. He let his mind rest for a few seconds before opening his eyes once again, meeting Jungkook's tired face but still managed to put a smile on his face.

"You're finally awake. Are you hungry? Where does it hurt?" Jungkook questioned him worriedly.

He sighed heavily before shaking his head.

"Nothing hurts, I'm alright," he answered, but Gguk of course is not convinced. He can see Taehyung enduring the pain through his eyes and it's not good.

"I know something hurts, please tell me. How can I treat you properly if you're lying to me?"

Taehyung's heart immediately melted. He can see the teary eyes of Jungkook and tired-looking eyes. The eye-bags are already showing and his skin is pale too, the lips were a bit dry, and has no energy at all.

"Here, this part hurts a bit," he stated, pointing his forehead. Jungkook sough as he got the ointment in his hands again when Taehyung stopped him.

Confusion circulated his face because of Taehyung grinning.

"I don't need that, a kiss will do." said the older, making him giggle lightly.

"Stop joking around, Taehyung. Stay still and I'll apply it to your skin okay?" he says but Taehyung shook his head with a pout on his lips.

"Nooo, just kiss me here pleasee? They say kissing the part where it hurts heals much faster right? Let's see if it works!" Taehyung rejoiced before holding Jungkook's hand.

"A no is a no, Tae. That's a myth, that'll never work. And stop acting like a kid." Jungkook said seriously, leaving Taehyung frozen on his spot.

Taehyung glossy eyes stared at Jungkook's before removing his hand away from the younger's fingers. He looked down silently before glancing oppositely, right in the window a few meters away from the bed.

"Okay... I think I'm okay now, you can leave.." Tae whispered the reason why Jungkook sighed. He knows that he can't resist him, so he did.

He put the ointment back to the little table in front of him before holding Taehyung's cheeks, pulling himself closer as his lips landed into his forehead. Eyes closed, as the warmness of his speech organ is felt around Tae's body, even if it's only in contact with his forehead.

After a few minutes of silence, Jungkook pulled away, pecking on his nose before sticking their forehead together.

"Wish granted, Mr. Kim." Taehyung giggled lightly before scrunching his nose to Jungkook's.

"Thank you, Mr. Ki-"

"Jeon. Mr. Jeon." Jungkook corrected him jokingly before sitting back properly, staring at his reddened face and pinkish lips because of all the biting.

"A-Ah..aww.." touched Taehyung that alarmed Jungkook in an instant. He quickly but gently let go of his hold to Taehyung and immediately checked him.

He saw his man holding his lips, which got him confused.

"I..think my lips are hurt too.." Taehyung whispered before looking up to Jungkook with a pout on his face.

"Can you..make the pain go away too?"

"What do you mean? Should I apply the ointment or something?" asked Jungkook worriedly but received a pouter lip from Tae.

"Use that method too please?" he begged. Jungkook soon realized what he wanted so he laughed.

"You just wanted a kiss, don't you?"

"Ye-No! I'm really in pain!" Taehyung denied, letting out a soft gasp knowing that he got caught by the younger.

Jungkook giggled, wiping the side of Taehyung's mouth before placing his hands on top of his hands.

"You need to rest, I still need to buy you medicine."

"Noo! Everything hurts, look! Aww!" Taehyung complained but Jungkook just shook his head before flicking his forehead with a very light force.

"Recover quick, and I'll give what you want." he made a deal, which Tae took seriously.

He cleared his throat, shrugging his shoulders, and spoke with his casual deep, chilly voice.

"I'm completely okay now, Mr. Jeon. I don't feel any pain and is fine, I can be discharged today," he announced, lifting his legs but lost it again when the stinging pain went back and triggered his whole body.

"Oh shit!" he tripped over, but lucky that Gguk caught in Jungkook's arms.

"See, you're still not okay. I'll give you what you want when you're already fine, a'ight?"

"Why do I have to waitt? Just kiss me right now," Taehyung whimpered and started whining.

"I will so make sure to stay healthy and take your time to rest. I'll grant everything you want after that."

Taehyung lifted his pinky finger, "Promise?"

Jungkook smiled back before wrapping his pinky finger around his as well.

"I promise."

"I love you."

"I love you too, love."

Taehyung's eyes widen once more because of the sudden endearment he heard that made the other cackle.

"I'll always call you that, so get used to it."

Blood quickly rushed up to his cheeks as he blinked slowly.

"Take care, Mr. Jeon."

"Get well, Mr. Kim."
