  Teeth: 5 Seconds of Summer

"Hey." Bozer greets as I enter HQ.

"Hey." I pull my hood off my head.

"Are you alright? You need anything?"'He walks with me.

"No, I'm okay."

"You sure? Whatever you need, I can-"

"Wilt." I stop him. "I really appreciate everything you've done for me this past week, but I'm okay."

"Then why is Mac telling me you're still gone when he wakes up?"

"The earlier you go to sleep, the earlier you get up."

"Then why do you look exhausted as hell?"

"Thought that was obvious." I continue walking.

"Hey." Bozer stops me. "I know you're not ready to tell anyone yet, especially Mac. But when you do, I'll still be here. Right beside. You have my support, through everything. Always. Forever."

"I know. Thank you, Wilt." I hug him.

"Which is why from here on out, I am now your personal bodyguard."

"What?" I pull away. "Wilt, I don't-"

"Yes, you did. You shouldn't be here in the first place. But we both know you're never gonna stay home, so, this is the next option. You need to take it easy, okay? Starting now." He leads me in front of me him and we enter the lab.

"Hey." Evan greets.

"Hey." I reply.

"Just in time for more needles." He pulls his sleeve down.

"Great."

"Hey." Mac walks over.

"Hi."

"You were gone again this morning when I woke up. Everything okay?"

"Yeah. I couldn't really sleep again, I just took a walk." I fix the collar of his shirt.

"For the past week?" He places his hands on my waist.

"Yeah. Still adjusting to everything." I place my hands on his arms. "Is it ready?"

"Yeah." Eli nods.

"Okay." I head over and Bozer pulls out the chair for me. I send him a discreet look and sit down. "How are your hands?"

"No more numbness, no other signs of physiological effects, either." Mac heads over.

"And you've been keeping up with your guided body scan meditations?" Eli sticks the needle in my arm.

"Twice a day. Haven't missed one."
