He got out of the taxi and went straight to seokmins apartment. He knocked on the door losing patience.

The door opened with seokmin on the other side looking horribly a mess. Joshuas heart broke to see him in this state.

"Seokie what happened?" He asked lookingg at the taller with concern. Seokmin just nodded and moved out of the way for joshua to come in.

The house looked rather clean but the kitchen was a whole mess, empty cups on the counter with what looked like different types on medicine, dishes in the sink and some sort of liquid staining the counter.

Joshua diverted his eyes to seokmin who looking at him with the face he couldn't quite read.

"Seokmin you look sick" joshua said as he placed a hand on seokmins forehead checking for any fever.

"Gosh youre burning!" He exclaimed with worry.

"I dont know i just woke up like this" seokmin said still looking at joshua with the unreadable expression. Joshua grabbed seokmins wrist and made him sit on the couch.

"You sit here ill be back" he said and left for the kitchen. Seokmin sat there holding his head as he felt a headache coming in.

Joshua made some soup and prepared some medicine. He placed everything on a tray and left to give it to Seokmin.

"Seokmin eat this, it will help with your fever" he said handing him the medicine. Seokmin took it with any hesitation and ate it. Joshua sat beside the younger looking at him as he remembered the times he used to take care of him when he was sick just like this. He was so childish and always wanted to get out of bed and do things that he shouldn't but the seokmin he is seeing right now is not the seokmin he once cared for.

The seokmin he sees looks depressed, in need of care and in need of alot of love, and he wants to give him all of it, but his tells him that he wouldn't be enough.

"Seokmin...tell me what happened, is everything ok?" He asked clearly knowing it wasnt ok but he wanted to know what was bothering Seokmin so much.

"Its just work, its just too stressful" seokmin answered rubbing his temples as the headache got worse, a groan left his mouth at the immense pain. Joshua frowned at the younger and made him got the bedroom to lay down and went back in the kitchen with the tray. He got some towels ready and a bowl with water. He made his way to the bedroom with the towels.

He placed them on the side table looking at the snuggled up Seokmin. He placed his hand on the youngers shoulder as the other turned around.

"I got some wet towels, lay straight" he said wetting the towels in the water and seokmin did as he was told. Joshua placed the wet towels on the youngers forehead and seokmin relaxed a little at the sensation.

"You shouldnt overwork yourself you know...its not good for your health, now look at you! If i see you like this agai i swer ill kill you myself" joshua scolded the younger who was only smiling at the others scolding.

"What? Did i make a joke? Im serious right now Seokmin" he went on with the scolding.

"I love when you care about me like this, i should get sick more often" seokmin chuckled and joshua smacked his arm which made him laugh even more. Oh how long joshua had waited to see him laugh like this.
