Taehyung opens his satchel and finds out a small medicine box, packed by his Namjoon hyung knowing how much the younger is tended to hurt himself randomly.
He pours some water on the open wound, then covers it with some harval ointment, then lastly wraps it carefully with a strap of clean white cloth, while blowing air every now and then with every hissing of the boy.
"Look.. it's all good now..", Taehyung smiles proudly at his work.
"Come on ... if you've done with your food... then let's try for some sleep... it's doing to be a long night...", Taehyung suddenly declares, "You'll do the first watch.. you are really hard to be awakened once you fall asleep... wake me up when you can't keep it up anymore.. then I'll do the watch and you can sleep... Clear?"
"Y..yes", Jungkook replies.
"Just don't sleep before waking me up..", Taehyung says as he lies on the leaf making his satchel as a pillow, "tsk... I need three pillows to sleep", he mumbles quietly.

"T..t...t ....taeee....."
"Ummm....."
"Tttaaeee....Ttttaaeee.."
"Ugffmm"
"TAAEEHEEE!!!!!"
"WHAT! WhAT!! WHAT'S WRONG?!!", Taehyung wakes up with a jolt.
Jungkook is shaking beside him. His entire body is wet with sweat.. hair sticking on his face. If there isn't a hint of fear in his eyes, Taehyung would consider the view quiet sexy.
"What's wrong?", Taehyung holds the boys shoulders to put the shaking body down.
"I.. I... heard a .... Terrible terrible sound....", Jungkook explains.
"What kind of sound?", Taehyung frowns.
"I..I don't know... if I.. had ever heard it before.... It's .. it's like a ... roar... but... very loud... and terrible....", Jungkook shakes at the memory.
"What time is it?", Taehyung asks calmly.
"I...I don't know...", Jungkook replies.
"I think it's time for you to sleep...and for me to watch", Taehyung smiles, "Go back to your spot and have a sweet dream..", Taehyung points towards Jungkook's abandoned leaf.
"B...but... that roar??", Jungkook asks shakily, widening his eyes.
Taehyung sighs.
"Jungkook.. I've told you already... that this is the forest of Kage... there're tigers in this forest... haven't I??", Taehyung reminds the boy, "Don't worry.. they won't disturb us as long as we are awake and aware... they are scared of humans as much as we are scared of them... the feeling is quite mutual... just sleep and I'll do the watch..", Taehyung calmly declares.
"I...I don't want to go back there ....", Jungkook pouts unknowingly, "It was...j..just behind me...o..over there....I'm...I'm ...no...going back....no...not...", Jungkook shakes his head crazily.
"Okay ... okay.... That's fine ....you don't have to go back there...", Taehyung soothes his hands in a calming way, "Why don't you sleep here? And I'll move back there?", Taehyung offers instead.
"NO!!! No....don't...alone...can't ....leave me here .... Don't !", Jungkook stutters.
Taehyung sighs. Again.
"What am I supposed to do with you?", He murmurs, "Fine! Sleep here .. And I am also sitting here just right beside you... will that be okay?!", Taehyung asks aloud.
