Seon chuckled a bit as she opened the door of her bedroom to go about her morning routine and look human again for she had just woken up and her hair was matted and flying in every possible direction.

As soon as she stepped out into the hallway, however, a smell captured her nose, bringing her attention to the kitchen.

It was still eight as she remembered so she wondered what time Jimin would have woken up to cook whatever her eyes saw, placed on the table in the living room as soon as she set foot over there.

"Jimin? What are you doing?" She asked as she headed towards the kitchen and Jimin turned to face her, only to burst into laughter upon seeing her morning face.

"Whose bird's nest is this? Were you fighting bears in your sleep?" He commented making Seon frown.

"I haven't had time to fix it yet okay!" She told him, trying to pull it down somewhat with her hands, now feeling slightly embarrassed that she had forgotten and appeared like this.

Jungkook had never seen her like this as she always made sure to wake up earlier than him and would fix herself a bit until he would wake up.

"Don't worry, you're still beautiful in my eyes baby." He told her as he approached her and brought his hands to both of her cheeks leaving a kiss on her forehead.

"Let's eat now. I made breakfast." He told her as he took her by the wrist and dragged her to the living room where they both sat down and began to eat.

Seon couldn't help but give him a few glances as the thought that he was doing this because she hadn't given him an answer to his question yesterday, came to mind. She told him that she needed some time to think about it, but the truth was that she wanted to say yes to him at that moment. She was just afraid.

She was scared to bond with him.

"About... What you asked yesterday.." She decided to speak now having thought well during the night about the pros and cons of this act.

"Take your time. I can wait." Jimin cut her off even though he didn't mean his words at all, he just didn't want to make her feel pressured.

"We both know that time is not something we have. Anyway, I wanted to say that I thought about it and decided that-" Seon met his eyes as she spoke and was about to tell him that they had better not get into such a situation, but when she met his eyes full of hope for a positive answer, she could not hesitate too much to say what she wanted.

"Um... I... Let's try it." She exclaimed,  shocked at herself and the words that came out of her mouth, but despite that she didn't regret it, seeing the beautiful, wide smile that conquered his lips and the veil of happiness that fell upon her heart.

"Thank you, Seon! I promise you won't regret it." He told her cheerfully, before getting up from his seat and rushing to her, taking her in a tight hug from which the truth was that his body hurt because of the sudden movements, but he didn't care, because it was healing his heart.

---time skip---

You were coming and going in the corridors of the building, delivering files from office to office in your supervisor's accord, while eagerly waiting for the moment of the break to arrive.

You weren't even halfway through the day and you were feeling dead tired as you had woke up early today and cooked breakfast for Jimin who begged you to do him this favour and then paid for a taxi to deliver everything to him to his house, prior eight.

On top of that, you had the most awkward sleep of your life, next to Jungkook after what had happened. It was strange how this act of his had made you fear him and lose the little trust you had gained these days in his touch and presence.

Yesterday just more than any other time you didn't want to be in close proximity with him because his presence made you feel insecure and that's why you didn't bat an eye.

But his behaviour had not only made you sleepless but also worried about it and you had decided to talk to someone about what you had observed so far regarding Jungkook and that's why you were waiting for the break to go meet Yoongi as you had arranged to. 

Yoongi was the one who had told you many times to keep him informed and the truth was that both he and Taehyung basically called you every day asking about Jungkook's condition and how you were doing, probably out of interest, you had originally thought but now, you were doubting it a little.

Do they know something more than you do?

You arrived at Jungkook's office and handed over the files you were carrying to his secretary before turning to leave.

"Y/N wait." You turned to the voice of Jungkook's second secretary who was always with him, and who had just left Jungkook's office.

"Call an ambulance quickly. The boss is not well." He said to the desk secretary before turning to face you who were now frozen at his words.

"What? What happened?" You questioned before hurrying to get into his office, finding Jungkook lying on the floor, his eyes half open.

" Jungkook! Jungkook. What happened?!" You uttered as you took him in your arms, your eyes full of concern, because of how pale he looked and how slow his breaths sounded.

"I don't know. He was looking kind of off today. He said he wanted to be alone and the truth is that this hasn't caught him in a while." His worried and clearly flustered secretary explained as best as he could, making you give him a shocked look. "You mean it has happened before?!!"

"Yes but not to this extent. It's something like an asthma attack from what I know." The secretary added, now thinking of running to the bathroom to find the medicine he usually leaves in the cupboard.

Does he have asthma? How come I have never heard of this before?! 

You wondered, inwardly now in a panic as you watched him forcefully try to inhale and exhale oxygen.

"Calm down Jungkook. Calm down. You can breathe okay. Just take it easy." You told him not knowing what else to say as you stroked his hair a little and your eyes started to become teary.

"Don't worry... I won't... Leave... You...Alone." He barely managed to get those words out, realizing the fear that had taken over you, as your fingers had unintentionally started trembling.

"Yeah. That's exactly what you should do, you idiot... Stay with me." You uttered while smiling a little as he wiped your tears under your eyes a bit before holding your hand until the secretary jumped out the door shouting 'I found the medicine!! "

And for some reason, you realized that you had not felt more relieved in your life upon hearing such simple words.
