MONEY TREES - yeonbin ff

It had been around 2-3 weeks since the incident and ever since that day i've seen Soobin at the motel every time i'm there. Whether that's after an appointment or right before one.

I always see him waiting for me in his car in the motel parking lot, almost like it's his routine. Sometimes I really want to question why he's there all the time but after an appointment i'm in too much pain or too sleepy to think of saying anything besides thank you.

At times i'd see Soobin after an appointment and get so frustrated seeing him, he could be anywhere else in the world and he chooses to wait for me in fucking pity. Though he always has some sort of food to give me while we drive to his house so I can't be completely mad.

Now I would like to call myself a very independent person. Growing up in an area that really wasn't meant for raising children and having parents that never really bated an eye at you until they needed something, I learned how to fend for and do things myself at a young age and i've stuck by it.

But seeing that i'm currently laying on the same uncomfortable motel mattress, barely holding on to conciseness as my body was cold and aching with unbearable pain. It was either doing the usual thing I'd do which is passing out on this hard, not even decently cleaned bed or call for help.

I already knew my decision when I tried my best to grab my phone that was laying on the counter beside me without causing anymore pain to my body, which didn't work it felt like a million daggers were lodged into me reaching for that damn device.

Once I finally got my phone I went through my contact, spotting the person I needed at the moment and clicking the "Call" button. It rang for sometime before he picked up,

"Hey, are you coming out now?" Soobin asked, his voice slightly muffled from the way I was holding my phone. The blue haired boy was, from what i'm guessing after I walked into the motel about 2 hours ago, in the parking lot waiting for me to come down.

"...Hello?" Soobin said after not getting an answer from me, it was difficult to find the right words to say now that I heard his voice. My throat felt like the Sahara desert now compared to before I called him.

I sighed though that only caused the burning sensation of pain in my body to spike up, trying to shake the aching feeling I finally spoke "Yeah uhm.." I paused now noticing how hoarse my voice sounded making me cringe hearing it, "I need some help if you don't mind." I finished, dryly laughing at the end to try and mask the stinging pain I was physically feeling.

From the phone I heard the quick sound of his car door opening and locking, "Same room?" The blue haired boy asked me which I nodded at, foolishly forgetting that he can't see me through the bright phone screen.

Though i'm guessing he already knew my answer, hearing the fast steps up the stairs and the door clicking open. I assume that what Soobin was seeing was quite a sight, catching the small gasp the blue haired boy let out before running over to me. My half lidded eyes staring up at his worried ones, "Holy shit- what happened?" He asked. His eyes and voice made me want to sink deeper into the uncomfortable mattress.

I've never seen anyone this worried for me before it made me feel nervous. "T-take an educated guess," I answered sarcastically my voice trembling from the jittery feeling in my stomach looking at him.

I was slightly hoping that my comment would make his eyes turn into a color of annoyance, irritation, anything but no they stayed the same concerned color the whole time making me shiver from the feeling I couldn't describe.

Without any words the blue haired boy picked me up softly, holding me carefully in his warm arms that caused a light tingling feeling all throughout my aching body.
