It's two in the afternoon, jeongin sat next to seungmins bedside, Felix and Hyunjin had already been by so now it was just them.

Jeongin was leaning onto the bed, elbows resting on the rail, one hand on seungmins chest so he could feel his breathing as he talked to him.

"Yesterday Me and the girls went to a splash pad, it was fun but i was a bit lonely. It's kinda funny cause I used to go alone everywhere and I was fine. I guess you must have spoiled me cause now I really can't stand it." Jeongin said, laughing bitterly to himself.

"I hope you wake up soon Minnie, my life feels like it's been put on pause without you. I just want to get back to where we left off.
I know our relationship isn't perfect........but I need you back, we'll work on all our issues when you wake up, we can talk to your addiction counselor and we'll get you another therapist if you want, to help with your depression, ok? You just have to wake up and I'll help you with everything."

The door clicked behind jeongin, causing him to turn around, a little startled though he tried not to show it too much, stiffening his posture.

"Oh, Mr Kim you scared me." Jeongin said, laughing a bit. The older man walked to his side.

"Sorry about that, son, the nurse didn't mention someone was already visiting, I'm not interrupting am I?" He asked. Jeongin shook his head.

"No, no of course not. I mean he's your son, I won't stop you." Jeongin laughed nervously.

"That doesn't matter jeongin, you have just as much right to have alone time with seungmin as I do, I'd say you have more right, I'm willing to bet he'd prefer you over me bothering him." Mr Kim laughed.

"Thank you sir..." The younger said, not quite sure what to say. Mr Kim turned his attention to his son, both him and jeongin looked down at him for a moment.

The younger reached out his hand to seungmins head, combing his fingers through his messy dark hair.

"Oh that reminds me." Jeongin said as he felt a couple of small knots in the brunette hair. He reached into a small backpack behind him that he had brought, grabbing out a light blue hair brush from the front pocket. Mr Kim raised his brow just a little.

"Don't the nurses take care of stuff like that." Mr Kim asked, curiously as jeongin brought the brush to his son's head.

"Oh...... well yeah, but Minnie has such thick hair, I don't want one of the nurses to forget and then they end up being too rough cause his hair got too tangled, y'know just better be safe." Jeongin said, as he used one hand to separate seungmins locks before gently going through with the brush. Mr Kim just nodded, clearly impressed but not quite sure what to say. He decided to say nothing, just enjoying seeing his son be loved. Actually loved, for the first time by someone other than himself or hyunjin.

"Ok, there we go." jeongin said happily as he finished up, placing the brush on the small table next to the bed. Mr Kim smiled down at the boy.

"Thank you jeongin.." he said, placing his hand on the younger's shoulder.

"Oh, no it's nothing, I like doing it." Jeongin said shaking his head a bit. It really wasn't a big deal to him, it was just another thing on his list he would do everyday and it was important to him, so he would just do it. It wasn't a big deal, Mr Kim just always gives him too much credit.

"That's the point, most people wouldn't do that if they didn't have to." Mr Kim said, smiling as he could tell the younger was about to deny it.

"Well yeah but, I- guess that's true but, it's just cause I love him, like I said it makes me happy, it's not anything crazy. I just comb his hair and sometimes I give him a massage, cause to be honest I'm really worried about his muscles cause I just know he's going to be so sore when he wakes up, so I just do some extra stuff like that.......
That's all." Jeongin explained, waving his hand as he got to the end of his last sentence. Once again diminishing his own credit. Mr Kim shook his head in disagreement, smiling almost on disbelief.

"No wonder my son feels inadequate, you're not just perfect but modest, how can he compete." He laughed, not really considering his own words. The younger's expression dropped he froze for a moment before turning to Mr Kim.

"Do you really think so?" He asked, his voice shaking as he thought about that for the first time. He knows he's hurt minnie without knowing it, but he never even considered that.

"Yes of course, you're obviously modest-"

"No, no I mean do you really think I make him feel inadequate?" Jeongin asked, looking up to the older.

"Huh? Oh no, no that's not- I was just saying, I didn't mean to worry you, I shouldn't have worded it like that, I'm sorry son." Mr Kim said, his brows knitting together with guilt.

"You're probably right.."

"No, no I'm not son, it was just a joke alright, that's not true." Mr Kim said hurriedly, patting jeongins shoulder. He didn't say anything, the younger just sat down next to seungmins bed, looking at if he was zoning out a bit.

"I'm sorry jeongin, poor choice of words. Please don't feel bad because of me, Seungmin's got his own problems, ok. It's not your fault." Mr Kim said, trying to look in the boys eyes.

"I-i know sir, s-sorry." Jeongin said, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand.

"No, no I'm sorry son, don't apologize." He said, patting the youngers head. His heart breaking as he could feel jeongin shake under him, starting to cry harder.

A light knock hit the door behind them, Mr Kim fixed his posture, his hand still placed on jeongins hand.

"Yes, come in." He said loudly. The door opened, a small female nurse walked in, making he way towards seungmins bed and stopping at seungmins feeding tubes.

"I'm sorry gentleman, you'll have to leave early today, I can give you a moment to finish up if you'd like but I've got to start cleaning up soon." She said, moving around some smaller tubes on seungmins arm.

Mr Kim patted the youngers back.
"alright son, let's go." He said softly. Jeongin shook his head.

"Ok.."
