Hospital

"Thought you weren't gonna make it" Haechan said, relieved as he saw Jaemin sling his backpack onto his shoulder as he go out of his car

"Yeah traffic was really bad this morning, its a Monday after all" Jaemin said, joining Haechan to their walk to their business lecture.

"Socrates is gonna be giving us a quiz tomorrow on this chapter" Haechan said, using the class's nickname for the professor who often singled them out to answer questions

"Seriously? Is it an essay?" Jaemin asked, opening up his Ipad before putting on his glasses

"Multiple choice" Haechan said with a whisper as the professor entered the class room. Jaemin took of his glasses as he felt his eyes becoming blurry as he read the class brief. Rubbing his eyes he looked back to the words, everything becoming more blurry, almost as if everything was in slow motion.

"You okay?" Haechan whispered and Jaemin shot his head towards him, a sharp pain shooting up his arm towards his head making him groan

"Dude, what's wrong?" Haechan asked, using his hand to shake Jaemin's arm but he only flinched away, catching the attention of everyone in the classroom.

"Na Jaemin, what does the Schein's model of organisational culture enable for businesses?" The professor asked from the podium a few steps below from where Jaemin was

"Uh..." the words came out of his mouth jumbled, not making any sense. Soon the words stopped

"Oh my god! Is he having a stroke?!" Another student exclaimed making Haechan stand up to his feet

"Jaemin-ah, look at me! Can you say something?!" Haechan asked.

Jaemin wanted to answer, say that he was fine, but he couldn't. Half of his body turned cold from the numbness, he couldn't feel Haechan shaking him anymore

"Someone call the ambulance!" The professor shouted, running up the stairs of the lecture hall to assist Haechan in taking care of Jaemin.

The beeping of his watch was almost alarming to Haechan, never hearing it beep this loud.

The paramedics were quick to arrive as there was a university hospital within the campus. Jaemin was soon placed on the stretcher and taken into the hospital, Haechan by his side no matter how many times the paramedics tried to get him to stay away.

"Raise your left arm a bit more when you stick your left knee out, remember to engage your core to keep yourself balanced" Taeyong, their dance instructor, stated as he taught Yeseul the dance.

"Good, now turn left and gradually lift both arms, and body roll, nice~" he critiqued as he watched her movements

"Okay, good! Let's try that with the music" he said. He was taking Kai's position as Yeseul practiced her duet dance parts for the song Peaches.

"Good, drag your left foot on the floor longer" Taeyong instructed, helping her get through the dance professionally

"Perfect! Let's take 10 and meet back here for a rerun" Taeyong said, giving Yeseul a pat on the back as the team dispersed for a short break

Yeseul walked over to grab her water bottle, taking a sight of Jeno standing at the doorway waiting for her.

"Hey, you" she said with a smile as she approached Jeno who had a smile on his face.

"Hey...i stopped the building for a bit, thought i might see you but you look pretty busy" he said with a pout, pulling her out into the hallway that was less crowded

"Yeah they're trying to rush the practice a bit since the performances are coming up quickly, think I'm gonna skip that lunch break to get some more practice in" she said saw with a sigh, taking a sip of his water bottle

He smiled softly at her hard working personality, taking out a handkerchief from his suit pocket and giving it to her so she could wipe the sweat off her face

"A real gentleman" she said and he chuckled. Before he could open his mouth to say anything the sudden ringing of his phone went off

"Who is it?" She asked as he watched his eyebrows furrow

"Haechan...he's meant to be in class though" he mumbled as he answered the phone

"Hel- wait slow down, slow down! What happened? Is he being transferred? Does Kun know?"

The sound of the doctor's name she grew so fond with perked up curiosity and worry in her

"Okay I'll be there soon, call his grandfather and let him know" Jeno said as he ended the call

"Everything okay?" She asked worriedly

"...Jaemin is in the hospital" Jeno said and she felt a sudden pang in her chest

"Is he okay?" She asked

"Apparently it look like a stroke or something, I don't know the doctors are running tests on him right now but he hasn't regained consciousness yet" Jeno said

"I have to go to the hospital" Jeno said

"Do you need me to drive you?" She asked, widening her eyes at the seriousness of the situation

"No i- you have work, I'll go-"

"Please take a cab there, I don't think you should drive right now" she said grabbing onto his arm and he nodded. He cupped her face in his hands for a few seconds placing a small kiss on her lips

"Be careful" She said

"I will, I'll call you later" he said as he ran to the elevator.

"Yeseul you ready?" Taeyong asked sticking his head out into the hallway

"Uh..yeah sorry" she said, walking back into the dance room. She was beyond worried for Jaemin, sure they had a falling out but she wouldn't wish the worst on him, it pained her to hear that he was going through this, that such a young and caring boy that she knew was going through this

"Yeseul come on, we've been over this three times already" Taeyong said as he watched her crouch onto the ground out of breath

"I'm sorry" she sighed as she tried to push her thoughts away, standing back on her feet but the frown on her face didn't go unnoticed

"You know what, let's just wrap it up for today...Yeseul can i slot you in for a private practice tomorrow at 3pm?" Taeyong asked, understanding that something had previously happened to make her this way

"That's perfect, thank you so much" she said and Taeyong smiled

"Remember guys, the debut photos are going up on the instagram today, your instagrams will get flooded" Taeyong said, cheering every dancer up individually as he bid them goodbye. Yeseul was quick to get changed into a less sweatier outfit

"You look like you're rushing babe, you good?" Alexa asked and Yeseul sighed

"I'm sorry to bother you guys but...could someone please drive me to the hospital?" She asked

"What?! Are you sick?!" Yeji asked standing up to her feet

"No no! Its not me, my friend just got admitted, its pretty serious" she said, trying to not disclose too much information

"Oh my god, of course, I'll bring you" Yuna said

"I'm sorry for the trouble" Yeseul said with a pout as she grabbed her bag to leave

"It's no trouble, lets go" Yuna said

"Bye guys, well done today! See you tomorrow" Yeseul said to her team, mustering up a bright smile before she left with Yuna.
