【 Feel better. 】

So there I was, sick in bed with a fever, not sure why I got sick all of a sudden.

Jungkook was taking care of me, he was a little standoffish, probably because of what happened yesterday.

I clench the bedsheets a little bit, I still felt ill thinking about it, wasn't sure if that was me being sick or my brain overthinking again.

"I made you soup." He says, "thank you."

He sets down the tray and looks at me, his eyes watery, "Are you okay? You're not sick yourself are you?" I say playfully, he shakes his head.

"...I'm sorry... for making you cry."

My eyes widen.

"My mom always told me that negative words always have consequences, and know you're sick."

Now I wanna cry.

"What are you talking about kookie?" I see his face soften at me using his nickname, "I'm gonna be okay! It's just a little cold!" I was avoiding the obvious, I didn't wanna think about it more than I already did.

"So... let's just have fun alright? I don't want you crying! We still have lots of time left together!" I smile.

He wipes his eyes, "Yeah, I guess you're right." He sits down next to me before hugging me tightly.

I hug him back, I could faintly smell his cologne through my nonclogged nostril, I might as well live in the now.

He looks at me, he smiles, "You're kinda cute with your face all swollen."

"Eh? What kind of shit is that?"

He laughs, "When you feel better, I want to take you out on a date."

My eyes widen, "What? A date? Like an actual date?" He nods.

I feel my heart pounding as he kisses my cheek, "You deserve it."

I hug him again, "Ugh, I feel ill again."

"Oh no! Are you gonna throw up?"

I shake my head, "No... but I need something..."

He turns his head, "What is it? I'll give you anything you want."

I snicker, "Anything..."

He blushes, "Well... I can give you that if you want..." I scoff, "You pervert! You immediately go to sex?!" He giggles, "Hey you said anything!"

I pout, "I need kisses." He hugs me tightly, "I can give you those."

"But before you do, I need a promise."

"Ok..." he gulps.

"Promise... that when you're out there riding your horses and traveling across different plains... that you never forget me and my little farm, with my little animals and scary garden snakes..."

He stares at me, not saying or doing anything, I knew what I asked for was sudden and probably a big want but I wanted to know that even if we could never be together, even if we never saw each other again, he'll still remember me, like I would remember him.

I see his eyes watering a bit then tears start to pour out, "Oh no I'm sorry! I didn't mean to make you cry!" I said wiping his face a bit.

"You're fine." He sniffles then leans his head into me, silence goes by for a minute as I hold him.

"I'll never forget you y/n." He says muffled, "You'll always be in my memories, in my heart and in my mind forever, I could never forget these moments, a cowboy never forgets."

I smile, "Thank you. And I'll never forget you Jungkook."

We sit there for a minute in our thoughts, I never wanted this moment to end, I felt so connected to him and I felt like he felt that too.
