"hyung... i got you to calm down last night, and you're crying again?" ni-ki groaned, and ran back to sunoo's bedroom from the kitchen, trying to ignore the headache stabbing him.

he'd been trying to prepare breakfast for them, but his whole body felt shaky, and he found that he could hardly hold onto anything, let alone cook properly. 

a plate and knife had already slipped out of his hands, and he had been trying to clean up the shards of porcelain that had been shattered everywhere.

exhausted, he had left the broken pieces and stumbled towards sunoo's room out of concern for his boyfriend when he heard him crying.

somehow he couldn't find the energy to even climb back onto the bed, so he fell to his knees in front of sunoo, who only slightly stopped crying to sit up, wrapping his arms around himself.

"come on, sunoo hyung..." ni-ki coaxed hoarsely, wincing when his throat suddenly throbbed with pain.

shit, why does everything hurt so much? 

sunoo seemed to notice him flinch, and he frowned, hiccuping.

"are you okay, ni-ki?" 

ni-ki was relieved to see the soft glow of concern appearing in the elder's hazel eyes when he whispered the words.

he smiled weakly, leaning closer towards sunoo. his warmth was so tempting at that moment. he didn't know why, but he longed for it to surround him.

however, sunoo's eyes widened as soon as ni-ki rested his head on his lap, and he jerked backwards.

"w-why are you so warm! ni-ki! your eyes look so glassy!" sunoo exclaimed, with a shocked expression that said - 'i'm worried, but i'm going to be annoying about it. but also extremely cute.'

sunoo rolled his eyes when his dongsaeng didn't respond, and involuntary shiver shook ni-ki. he continued leaning closer to sunoo, desperately wanting to feel his warmth. 

sunoo quietly wiped his remaining tears and place a hand on ni-ki's forehead, pursing his lips.

"nishimura riki! your whole face is flushed, and you're trembling all over... did you even sleep last night?" his face scrunched into concerned lines as he grabbed ni-ki's wrists.

it took ni-ki a while to answer, because his brain refused to cooperate. his thoughts felt as if they were clouded, trapped inside the pain and confusion that he was feeling.

it'd been a while since he'd had one of his fevers. when he had one, he'd recover extremely quickly if he had enough rest, but he had terrible symptoms. his head pounded as though someone were hammering him, and his throat felt like it was on fire. 

"of course, how could i sleep last night when i wanted to make sure you wouldn't wake up crying?" he finally said, tugging at sunoo's fingers.

he wasn't sure if sunoo was really listening because the elder boy glared at him fiercely, raising an eyebrow.

"that's why you're having a fever, ni-ki!"

another shiver racked him, and sunoo nudged him onto the bed gently. he had a sweet, slighly sad smile on his face when he draped the blanket over ni-ki's shoulders.

"thank goodness we have the next couple days off," sunoo murmured faintly, standing up. "i'll get us something to eat. you don't have to eat if you can't."

"sunoo hyung- i already made a few things for us to eat..." ni-ki mumbled, grabbing hold of sunoo's hand while trying to make sense of the world.

he heard sunoo's choked voice whisper, "why do i have the best boyfriend ever?"
