Nightmare

Chapter 5

* means flashback btw

Sun caresses your skin, the warm rays slowly rousing you from your sleep. Blink slowly, you move your hand up to rub your eyes. With a groan, you lift your head to look out the window through a crack in the curtains, finding the sun shining high in the sky. A figure moves into your viewpoint, Soobin walking away from the small cottage and towards the little garden they keep. Yeonjun is already there and the other three are no where in sight. You move to sit up, wincing as pain shoots through your body from the wound on your stomach.

"I guess stretching is off the table," you huff to yourself as you reach under your pillow to the knife you left their. You carefully strap it under your stomach wound, making sure it won't move when you sit and allow your shirt to cover it once again.

Your gaze shifts to the bookshelf across from the bed, skimming over the titles. Nothing seems to stand out to you, some titles seeming to be in other languages. You shift again, looking over at the desk for a moment, then to the nightstand at your side. Finding a small compartment, you pull it open only to find nothing in there. A huff falls from your lips, disappointed at the lack of interesting things in the room.

A knock sounds from the door.

"Come in."

Beomgyu opens the door, shuffling into the room with a soft smile on his face and a somewhat makeshift crutch in his hands. "Good morning Sol. How'd you sleep?"

"Pretty well," you hum, attempting to match his smile. "I woke up a bit every time I moved cause it hurt but otherwise fine."

His smile turns sympathetic. "I'm sorry about the pain. I might be able to help with that, I think we have some pain killers in the kitchen."

"I'd appreciate that," shifting a bit, you move to stand only to fall back into the bed. "I might need a bit of help."

Beomgyu moves quickly to your side, handing you the crutch he was holding and moving to your other side. "Okay I've got you."

He carefully takes your arm, lifting you onto your feet. Once up, you push the crutch under your other arm, leaning your weight onto it and off of your injured leg. Beomgyu backs off a bit, but still has a soft grip on your arm in case you need it. You take a test step, once satisfied you are able to move you head towards the door, Beomgyu following behind you.

"You said the kitchen right?" You ask as you enter the hallway.

Beomgyu hums. "Yep."

With that, you two make your way slowly into the kitchen, Beomgyu watching you to make sure you don't fall. You pass Kai and Taehyun as you enter the main living space and shoot them a small smile. When you enter the kitchen, you sit down at the table, leaning you crutch against the chair beside you. Beomgyu moves further into the kitchen, opening a cabinet and pulling out a small jar of pills. He grabs a cup of water as well, bringing both over to you. Quickly, you toss the pills in your mouth and chug some water to wash them down.

"Thank you."

Beomgyu's lips form a soft smile. "Yeah of course."

Steps echo and you turn your head, finding Kai and Taehyun working their way into the kitchen, Kai moving further into the room while Taehyun takes a seat across from you.

"Good morning," Taehyun hums, tossing you a small smile before turning to look at Beomgyu and Kai in the kitchen.

Beomgyu moves towards Taehyun, placing a quick kiss on his forehead. Moving back to his spot, Beomgyu also goes to greet Kai with a kiss to his cheek before settling once again.
