(Y/n POV)

I was sitting in bed, I had been drawing on my Ipad for the past 2 hours. It had been 1 week since I went back to work and my routines are all back to normal. It is currently 11 at night.

After I finished drawing I decided to call it a night and go to sleep.

***

The alarm rang but it took me a while to get up and close it.

When I did I realised that my head really hurts and my body felt weak.

"Jihoon!" I called, but my voice came out weak and hoarse, my throat was scratchy and dry.

He came in brushing his teeth, "is something wrong?"

"I feel sick." I said.

"Please no." He said, before walking over to me and feeling my forehead.

"You're burning up."

"I can still go to work, I'm fine," I said standing up but only to double over in pain.

Jihoon carried me back to bed and said, "don't be dumb, you aren't going anywhere today. Stay here while I go get the thermometer ."

He came back a moment later and checked my temperature, "you're 38.4º."

"That's bad." I said.

"I don't think I should go to work either, you need someone to take care of you."

"No, you have to go to work Jihoon." 

"Nope I can't just leave you like this, stay here, I'm gonna go over to Yeji and tell her."

I was too weak to even stand, but I didn't want Jihoon to take a day off work just to look after me. Sometimes he can really be a fusspot.

He came back and said, "I'm going to cook you some congee don't do anything dumb."

I fell back asleep after he left, keeping the door open after him.

"Y/n, Y/n wake up."

I stirred and opened my eyes.

"Wha?" I said, looking around.

"It's time to eat." I then noticed a bowl of congee in his hands with chicken.

"I don't like congee." I said, looking at it.

"Quit complaining," he said, getting a spoonful and blowing it.

"Here," he said raising the spoon to my mouth.

I ate it, "I can eat myself." I said.

He passed the bowl to me and said, "careful the bottom is hot." 

After eating he brought me medicine which I took with water, then I went back to sleep.

When I woke up it was already 11pm, I had slept for 2 and an half hours. I looked over to the bottom of the bed and Jihoon was sitting there on his phone. "What are you doing?" I asked him.

"Oh you're awake, I was just checking my emails. Do you feel better?"

"I still feel dead, I've got a horrible head ache."

He went to get the thermometer and took my temperature, "it still hasn't gone down, it's 38.0°, drink some water and go back to sleep."

"Also your mum called earlier, I picked it up for you."

"Did she say anything?"

"Nope, just told you to stay warm and drink more water, especially that you're sick." I nodded, I went to get some water then went back to sleep.

I woke up again and looked around the room, it was lit up by the sun that was just over the window. I looked beside me and seen that Jihoon was also fast asleep, snoring away.

"Jihoon?" I said, shaking him awake.

"Yea?" He said, getting up and yawned.

"Are you tired?" I asked.

"No, I was just bored so I decided to take a nap."

"Oh okay." I said closing my eyes again. Am I just going to sleep for the whole day?

"I'll go make you some lunch, sandwich with some soup."

"Okay, thanks Jihoon."

He left and I went to check my phone for the first time today. I got a message from my mum saying to drink loads of water and not to play on my phone too much.

I replied to her. After that I went into the kitchen and seen Jihoon cooking.

"Is something wrong?" He asked.

"Nope, I just need hydration."

"You should've just asked me to get it for you."

"And what let the food burn?"

"I'm making sandwiches and soup not eggs or something." He said as I poured some water into a cup.

"Aya you idiot, you are not allowed to drink cold water when you're sick." He said taking the cup of me before I could drink it.

"Why not."

"It's freezing cold, and it not good for you. Go go go, take a seat in the living room and I'll get you your water."

I pouted and left hearing him say, "goodness, can't even pour a glass of water."

I sat down on the sofa and Jihoon came with lukewarm water.

"Here you go."

"Thank you." I said as he walked into the kitchen again.

I sat there drinking my water making unnecessary sipping noises while waiting for Jihoon.

"Y/n!" He shouted from the kitchen.

"What!" I said.

"Come eat."

"Okay."

I walked into the kitchen and took a seat before starting to eat. During lunch he must've asked me 100x if I feel better or not.

After lunch we decided to just watch a movie in my room. The rest of the day was just spent lying in bed and having a movie marathon.
