6.3

eunha was wrapped in her cozy blankets, sneezing and coughing.
fever time bitches.

she skipped college that morning, feeling too weak to even get up. though she texted her friends about it and the groupchat was full of get well soon's.

all she had done that day was listen to music or talk to jungwoo and a few of his friends that came for a while to pick jungwoo up for a hang out- offering to stay and keep her company.
of course, she denied and forcefully sent jungwoo to go with his friends, not wanting him to feel left out

but she wished she hadn't when she realized that she had ran out of her meds.

so now, the sick girl had put on jungwoo's thickest coat and her fuzzy socks, walking to the nearest pharmacy.

it was all going smoothly until she exited the pharmacy and saw the one and only, huang renjun. what a cliché thing to happen, her whole life was a wattpad story now.

"oh-! eun- wait, weren't you sick?!" the boy rushed over, forgetting the events from the previous day, concerned about the girl
"still am" she sheepishly smiled and held up her bag, "i ran out of meds and jungwoo was out with his friends"
"you should've called me then!"
"i didn't wanna disturb you, though"
"you idiot, you're never a disturbance for me, okay? get that info inside your nonexistent brain" he chuckled softly and poked her forehead, gasping at the high temperature

"DUDE THE FUCK YOUR FEVER IS SO HIGH, LETS GET YOU HOME, YEAH?"
"yeah, and stop yelling"
"OKAY I'LL STOP YELLING"

eunha sighed, shaking her head. even though her eyelids were heavy, she tried her best to stay awake so she could at least walk home by herself- considering that renjun was most probably going to stay and look after her, she didn't want to be a nuisance for the boy

noticing her tired state, renjun shook his head. he walked in front of her and leaned down,
"get on my back, eunha"
"what- you stopped giving me piggybacks when were 14, renjun. i don't think you're used to it anymore. besides, i can walk"
"just get on, before i make you"
"but I've gained a lot of weight, you'll die!"

he let out a heavy sigh, "you're as light as a feather. get on. just like old times?"

she bit her lip, but she obeyed and got on his back and chuckled.

"what's so funny?"
"just.. your shoulders"
"I'm not the shoulder gangster for nothing, you know. my shoulders are so wide 45 birds could sit on them and there still would be room for more"
she giggled, "yeah, sure"

the walk- or piggyback- to kim residence was short, yet full of reminiscing their childhood spent together. the female had become really tired by the time they reached home, she requested for all lights to be dimmed saying they "burn holes into her eyes" and immediately asked for him to take her to bed

he laid her down on her bed and brought a hand up to her forehead to check her temperature. but just as he was about to take his hand away, eunha grabbed his wrist and brought him closer to her face, looking him dead in the eye

"renjun. let me know what you think soon, hm? I'm getting very impatient. i want to have you as soon as i can so think fast"

his chest rose and fell, heart beat erratic and bottom lip being chewed by his teeth as he rested his back on the closed door of eunha's room

'fuck fuck fuck' he hit his head. then after a while, he smiled without him knowing.
'she's so fucking cute when she's trying to be bold'

eunha was asleep now. it actually took her only a few minutes to doze off, all it took was one of renjun's hoodies she stole and kept in her closet and a fuzzy blanket.

'renjun, just do it. you like her back and you know it.' he thought, fists clenched and a determined look on his face

'just you wake up eunha, I'll be calling you my girlfriend by tomorrow evening. i got this'
