"Is he awake?" Jisung worriedly asked as soon as he got into the room. The nurse shook her head with a small smile. "W-when is he waking up?"

"He's sleeping, Han. He's just lacking in taking meals but don't worry much. He will wake up soon."

Jisung sadly looked at the iv drip hanging on the pole next to the bed and to his arm. "Nurse, how do I make him to eat properly? He's been like this.. I don't know since when but since I hang out with him he hasn't been eating regularly." his voice laced with sadness, not knowing what else to do when he found out the older did not eat properly for three days.

"He might has some problems with eating. Maybe you can talk to him after this? After all you are the closest with him and he might listens to you." The nurse pat his shoulder before going out. Jisung slumped down on the chair next to the bed, staring at the sleeping boy.

"The moment you wake up I'm gonna pull your ears for not listening to me hyung." Jisung grumbled but took Minho's hand in his anyways. This morning when his class just started he received a message from Minho's phone saying it was Chan and the former guy fainted after having the morning bath. Jisung was about to leave the class but remembering that he had an upcoming quiz, he kept convinced himself that Minho was going to be fine. He tried to keep calm and as the class ended he rushed to the clinic without waiting for Juyeon. So here he was, alone with a sleeping Minho and his worried heart.

He never knew what Minho's problem with eating was. All he knew the guy always refuse to eat but did not know if he had some sort of sickness or not. He didn't want to push him to tell or to assume anything. He just waited until Minho was ready to tell him.

He was willing to wait, and to help him.

An hour passed. Jisung laid on the couch, playing with his phone as Minho still hasn't woke up. It was lunch time but he decided to have it with the older. He wanted to make sure he's eating.

"Hi, Jisung." The said guy immediately stood up and faced his two seniors which he recognised them as Minho's roommate. 

"Hi, hyung." he smiled a bit, watching as Chan put a plastic with two containers inside on the table.

"We bought food for both of you. When he wakes up don't immediately ask him what happened but ask him to eat," Yeosang told him. "Our room number is twenty five, on the second floor. If he wants to return but we are not here yet just bring him there, okay?"

Jisung nodded. After exchanging some more talks the guys left, leaving Jisung with Minho alone again. "Hyunggg wake uuppp" he sang slowly and returned to the chair next to the bed. He laid his head on the bed while looking at him. Minho was ethereal, even when he's sleeping Jisung found him attractive. Again, he asked himself. Was he really going to let him go after the semester ends? He did not want to, but then he realised that he was just going to date him because of his look. He didn't want that. If he was to date someone for real, he was not going to look just at their appearance. He wanted to love them too.

Jisung still did not feel any romantic feelings towards Minho. Sure, his heart fluttered at moments if Minho flirted with him but that would end only for a few minutes then he wouldn't feel anything. Just normal like he was talking to his friends.

Also, he was sure Minho dated him only to help him. So there's nothing to be worried about, right?

"So, are you gonna eat?"

Minho nodded slowly. Jisung grinned and put the food on the table. He pulled another chair from the empty compartment to sit next to him. When Minho woke up earlier the guy wanted to immediately return to the dorm without eating anything. Jisung had to make sure they won't walk through under the hot weather to prevent him from fainting again.

Jisung divided Minho's rice in two parts. He put one part on the plate while the other one was kept in the container. Minho silently watched him. Even he was drained with energy, his heart warmed up at the very little things Jisung did for him. "If you want to eat more just take it from here."

"Okay," Minho's voice was hoarse. The younger gave him the water to drink. "Thank you, Jisung."

"No problem hyung. I told you I'm going to watch over you."

He's too kind.

As usual Jisung waited for him to eat first but Minho sat still, biting his lower lip. "Sorry.."

"For what?"

"I broke our promise. I'm so sorry," he was near to crying but managed to hold it in. "I didn't mean to."

Jisung sighed and gently grabbed his hand. "Then why didn't you eat, hyung? Yeosang hyung said this was not the first time you fainted like that."

The older remained silent.

"Let's eat. You have to." his voice was firm but still soft in a way. Minho nodded as he took the chopstick, for Jisung. He whispered to himself. They ate in silence. The younger guy couldn't help but to look at Minho while he was eating. Minho slowly became flustered.

He cleared his throat, "You're staring."

Jisung giggled, "You look cute while eating."

"You should look at yourself, Sung. A duplicate of a squirrel." he chuckled when Jisung hit him but winced. "You hit at the injection area."

"Oh shit, sorry! Does it hurt? Is it bleeding?" He rummaged his back to find a tissue. "Hyung does it hurt?"

"No. And I'm not bleeding," Minho replied before continuing to eat. "Eat first, Jisung. Do you still have classes after this?"

"I do. In the evening. But I don't feel like going." He threw the tissue back into his bag. 

"Why?"

"You're sick."

Unknowingly both guy blushed but neither of them noticed as they weren't facing each other. They continued to eat in silence until the door opened, revealing Changbin. "Chan told me what happened so I made a photocopy of today's notes." he gave it to Minho and walked out. Jisung just eyed the dark guy with dissatisfaction.

"Is he talking to Felix again?" Jisung asked and Minho just shrugged. "He doesn't talk to him anymore. Felix is super sad these days."

"You asked me yet you answered it," Minho chuckled lightly. "I don't know anything. Changbin doesn't really talk about your friend to me. I though it was just a hookup?"

Jisung nodded sadly, "But Felix grew attached to him. I'm worried because of that. He knew it was just a hookup but put too much hope on him."

Minho was taken aback from Jisung's word. He silently gulped and just nodded. 

"But I don't blame anyone. Of course it is hard to forget it when someone treated you nicely during a hookup and left. After all it wasn't a real thing at the first place. But who are we to control our feelings. At first I want to be mad at Changbin hyung but that's not necessary."

Does he not realise it he's talking about future us? Minho thought but decided to stay quiet. They finished the food after a few minutes and Jisung was beyond happy when seeing the older's plate was empty. "Hyung you did it!"

How can he not fall more when Jisung was being the cutest bean in front of him?

Minho just smiled, but then he frowned when Jisung pulled his ears, "YAH!"

"I promised to myself to pull your ears after you wake up," he faked an angry expression to the older but only for a second. "Hyung, I really don't know what you're facing but just don't skip meal, please? This is your last semester year and you would be a repeater if you keep fainting and missing classes."

The brunette sighed, "It's hard." he muttered and went out with the empty plate.
