"Taehyung, What in the hell are doing?," I looked at him horrified as he continued climbing on the ladder as if it was all normal without a care in the world.

"Help me," He motioned his right hand towards me to help him climb through my window and into my room as I grumpily held his hand before helping him and making sure that no one saw him entering while looking out from the window.

"How is your fever?," He asked frantically, placing his hand above my forehead as I blinked at him slowly before snickering slightly and swatting his hand away.

"And you couldn't have just asked me this by phone?," I said before rushing towards my door and making sure it was locked to avoid being caught with an Asian man inside my bedroom, a really handsome one at that.

"Oh Comeon, now don't be like this, I was worried!," He whined like a baby with a small voice and an adorable pout decorating his face making him look 10x more cuter as I sighed mentally knowing I can't be angry at him because of his cute antics.

"Well, my headache's still killing me," I revealed before going towards my bed and sitting down on it with a sigh as I massaged my temples hoping to soothe the pain.

"Wait," he muttered before taking the backpack off of his back as my eyes widened momentarily because I didn't even notice it in the first place.

A small smile formed on my lips at the sight of him rummaging through his bag for God knows what with a concentrated look plastered across his face making me feel all soft.

"Here, I have some painkillers for your headache and these pills are for your cold and fever," he gestured towards the different packs of medicines in his hands and motioning towards me.

He's getting more adorable by the second.

"This.., you didn't have to," I internally cooed at his sweet gesture as I thanked him to which he sweetly smiled at me and continued taking one pill from each pack and onto his hands.

"Here, take these," he said before placing the tablets in my hand and pouring a glass of water from the jug sitting at my wooden bed side table.

"Now, lay down and rest for a while," he instructed as I obeyed before he laid the blanket on top of me making me more flush.

I've never been taken care of like this before and honestly, this feels amazing. A warm feeling settles in my chest, seeing him sitting beside me on the bed as he started playing with my hair gently making me smile.

Gosh, his hands sure feel so good.

"Did you eat something?," His question startles me as I blinked my eyes a few times before registering it fully into my brain.

"No," My answer causes him some worry as he stared at me with furrowed eyebrows and parted lips. Honestly, I'm also surprised by the fact that I haven't eaten anything for  the past 24 hours?

"And you took medicines with an empty stomach?," He expresses some disbelief as I sheepishly smile at him knowing I'm at fault. He stood up from my side making me confuse as he goes towards his backpack and taking out a tiffin and gesturing towards it.

"Before coming here, i made this porridge for you, it's good to eat if you're sick," he explains as he took out a spoon and sat beside me, opening the lid of the tiffin making its smell spread across the room.

"I've never had it before" I expressed with a scrunch of my nose, not knowing it's taste as Taehyung chuckled at my clueless expression.

"You'll love it and besides I made it so you should to love it" he playfully threatened me as I chuckled in response.

"We'll see that," I tease him as he blows lightly at the spoonful of the tasty looking meal making my mouth water instantly. My eyes widened a friction as I took in the flavour of different vegetables with the porridge giving it a delightful taste of this Korean dish as I put my thumbs up showing how much I liked it making him fluster slightly.

"This is so good," he smiled before taking a bite with my spoon himself making me gasp as I bit on my lower lip harshly while a giddy feeling subsided inside me seeing him eat with my spoon.

"You'll get sick if you eat from my spoon" I reminded him as he looked at me with a smile making my heart beat faster before he added, "Then we'll get sick together, that way we can take care of each other,"

I chuckled at his response as we continued eating in silence, a comfortable one with just us being in this little world.

If this is how it feels to be taken care of by Kim Taehyung, I'd prefer to be sick every day.

With him near me, I couldn't shake off the smile on my lips. Smiling just comes off as easy as breathing when he's the one making it happen whether with his silly antics or his caring attitude.

God, please don't let this be a fever dream because I've never wanted anyone near me this much as much as I want this man right here to be beside me.

"Now, sleep and don't forget to take your medicines after two hours," he gently reminded me after putting away the tiffin and spoon, making me lay down again but this time with a full stomach and a warm feeling within my heart.

He came forward before leaning down and placing a tender kiss on my forehead, lingering there for longer than a moment as we both relished in the closeness before he retrieved back, smiling down at me.

"I have to go now, take care, I'll call you tonight," I smiled before nodding as he went towards the balcony with his backpack and within a few minutes, he was nowhere in my sight.

I continued smiling like a fool, staring at the spot he was sitting on just a few minutes ago giving me butterflies in my stomach.

Sighing as I turned to lay down on my stomach, I pouted remembering there is still alot of time left for his call.

I didn't know what was happening with me but the thought of separating from him gives me an unsettling feeling but being near him causes that feeling to turn into a beautiful one instead.

Whatever was happening, I didn't want it to stop.

Kim Taehyung, I think I like you too.
