Christmas sniffles

Sickie: Soul
Caretaker: p1harmony

Keeho p.o.v
I don’t want to admit how much I had to beg our manager to let us get a Christmas tree for the dorms, but after what seemed like an eternity I was able to convince him to grant us permission, and in the end he let us get a Christmas tree. The day we had planned to go as a group to get the tree Soul and Jongseob had been called to the company for an emergency meeting. the two of them insisted that we could go and get the tree without them, but they asked us to wait to decorate until they got home.
Once the two maknaes got home we began unpacking the boxes of ornaments, I noticed pretty early on that Soul seemed a bit off, well even more so than usual. I asked him about it but he said he was fine, just worn out from the meeting. 

Soul p.o.v
I couldn’t explain it, I had felt fine all day, but almost as soon as I got back to the dorm I started to feel off. My eyes were stinging and burning. I kinda suspected I was just tired. Keeho asked me if I was okay. I told him I was just tired. Which I myself believed, but only a few minutes later my nose was itching, and I felt like I needed to sneeze. I felt weird, I tapped Jiung on the shoulder because he was closest to me, “hyung?” he looked over at me, “Oh God, Soul are you okay?” I quickly placed my hand to my face, “what’s wrong?” 

"Your face is puffy"

 “my nose itches” I sniffled, “hhktcHu- hhktcHhu- hhektchuI” 

“bless you” I heard Keeho called from across the room, Jiung called Theo and Keeho over. They both came over, “Oh.. Soul are you okay?” Theo looked concerned, “I don’t know what’s w-wrh-hh- hhktchu- hhektchHhu- ektchHu- wrong with me” 

“Soul I think you’re having an allergic reaction” Jiung said, by this point the other members had come over. I felt a bit overwhelmed and embarrassed by all the attention. “I don’t k-hhKtChhu- hhKTChuu- hhektchu- know what’s w-hh- wrong.” I leaned away from the members and sneezed a few times. Keeho blessed me, “Soul, are you okay?” Jongseob sat down next to me, “You seemed fine at the meeting” I sniffled, “I felt fine.” I coughed, my throat was itchy. “Soul, I have a random question” Intak said, I looked at him, “have you ever had a Christmas tree before?” I noticed a look of understanding cross the other member’s faces, but I was confused, I shook my head, “Soul, I think you’re having an allergic reaction to the tree” I shrugged, “I don’t know” 

“It would make sense, like you felt fine until you got here.” I nodded, “Soul why don’t you go shower, in the meantime I think we’ll get rid of the tree” Keeho explained, I shrugged, “you don’t need to get rid of the tree” the others all almost instantly protested. “Soul you can’t keep this up until after Christmas. You’ll make yourself sick” Theo explained, “but-”

“Soul we can get a fake tree” Keeho explained, I nodded, my entire body felt itchy at this point. “Can I take something to help? I’m itchy” 

“sure thing kid” Keeho said, “I’ll get it” Jiung said, he had rhinitis so he was the self proclaimed allergy medicine expert. He came back a few minutes later with a cup of water and the pills, “take this and then go shower” I nodded and followed his instructions.

~20ish minutes later~

I came back downstairs and was surprised to see that the members had already gotten the tree out of the dorm, “hey Soul, you feeling better?” Jongseob asked, which brought attention to me and our hyungs looked over to us. “Yeah, I’m feeling a lot better, less itchy” I sniffled, “you guys worked fast” Intak laughed, “Keeho went full mom mode the second you left” I laughed, “I’m glad you’re feeling better”

"Me too"

~The next few days the members looked on line and eventually found a fake tree on line. It was exciting for the members as the six of us bonded together decorating the tree Christmas eve, meanwhile we did a vlive, and P1ece questioned why the tree was fake, and the members just looked at me. I didn’t comment, instead choosing to continue to decorate, but as I did, I overdramatically fake sneezed as loud as i could, startling the members. I laughed, “that’s why the tree is fake” I laughed, the others rolled their eyes.
