Jisung returned to Minho's room after getting washed up at his building. He woke up earlier with Minho having a fever that's worrying him. Not only that, when he woke up he was still in Minho's arms while his other two seniors were giggling and took a few photos of them being cuddly. It took him a few moments to interpret what was happening and to escape from the older's embrace. Minho whined a bit but then his skin touched Jisung's, it was burning.

Minho had already woken up but continued to lay down on his bed with his arm covering his eyes. Fortunately for him it was weekend.

"Have you eaten?" Jisung asked which he replied with a small head shake. "Let's eat first then we'll get you some medicines."

"I'm not hungry."

"Too bad, I've already brought you breakfast," he took out the egg rolls he got from the cafeteria and peeked his head out to see Minho's roommates. "Hyung, do you want some egg rolls?" he asked Chan since he only could see him at that moment. Chan kindly rejected the offer when he felt something pulled him back.

Minho sat on the floor, facing Jisung with a small pout. "I thought this is for me."

"I thought you said you're not hungry."

"Suddenly I am." he took a bite of an egg roll. Jisung couldn't help but smiled seeing the other eating. He knew someone with a fever would not eat that easy but maybe Minho was an exception. At least that's what he thought.

The truth is, Minho hadn't eaten since yesterday. He was cramping in front of his laptop and books and forgot to eat something. Even at the library Yeosang had told him to have something to fill his stomach but he refused to, resulting Yeosang to have lunch only with his classmate. Probably that was the reason why Minho was stressed out that night and caught a fever the next day.

Jisung joined Minho eating while exchanging some words with him. As he expected, the older only took a few and wanted to continue doing his works but he prevented him to do so. "Give it a break, hyung. Don't work while you're sick."

"I have to finish it before the due date." Minho pulled his chair but Jisung was quick to sit on it, facing him. "Jisung."

"No. You need rest."

There was silence for a moment as the two just stared at each other. Jisung could see the frustration on Minho's face but he wasn't going to give up. "Health comes first."

"Easy for you to say. You don't know how it feels to take this course," The brunette broke the eye contact and collected his books, throwing them on the bed. After taking his laptop away from Jisung's grip, he sat on his bed and turned it on. "If you do, you wouldn't mind about your health too."

"I don't want you fainting again."

"I'm not gonna," Minho muttered, when he knows well that he might.

"Minho."

That was the first time he called the older without honorifics. Usually it would be 'Hyung', 'Minho hyung' or 'Min'. He glared at him but Jisung only replied with a smug look. He then ignored the guy, proceeding to do his work.

"Just return then, don't you have work?"

"Says the one who asked me to stay last night."

"Last night." Minho emphasized the first word.

"Sure, you do you then," Jisung was getting tired arguing with him. He got up from the sit and pulled his chair in. "I'm coming for lunch."

"I have a group discussion."

The younger guy visibly let his shoulders slump. "Goodluck." he shortly said and walked out from the room. Chan, who was hearing the whole conversation shook his head lightly at Minho's behavior. He wanted to say something but decided not to when hearing Minho groaned while muttering 'stupid minho' a few times.

Well, at least he knew he was being hard.

(●‿●✿)

To say Jisung was not worried was a lie.

Again, three days since he last talked to Minho because of his stubborn behavior. He did not know if Minho's fever has gone or not, if he eat his meals, if he's doing okay or not because the older too have not texted him anything since. Plus their study field was completely different from each other so their classes were not that close. Usually Minho would meet him in front of his classes but these days, he didn't.

Jisung knew this would happen again.

"Minnie! Are you done?!" Hyunjin shouted from outside the room. He had his duffel bag with him and a backpack. Shortly after Seungmin closed his locker and went out after bidding goodbye to Jisung.

He was left alone in the room. Juyeon had returned home early in the morning while Jisung booked for the last ride for the day. He was not sure about Minho though. He wanted to text him but afraid if he was going to disturb him.

So Jisung let it be.

After a few hours Jisung grabbed his bags and being the last one who left the room. It was almost dinner time but he had already eaten, now he only needed to wait at the bus stop. He low-key hoped he would meet Minho there but even when the last bus arrived, Minho was nowhere to be seen.

Maybe he already left, or he's taking tomorrow's schedule, he thought to himself. Jisung took the seat near the window. He leaned his head and sighed softly while looking at his chat room with the older. He was online.

As Jisung was arguing with his inner self, the bus suddenly stopped. He glanced a little to the outside and when seeing no one, he returned to his phone suddenly have the courage to text him.

jisung: hyung, i'm leaving now. have a good break :3

he then turned off his phone. slowly, he drifted into sleep without caring about his new seatmate.
