The silly argument quickly took a serious note. Jimin grabbed jungmin's school bag from the couch, unzipped it and pulled out a notebook. He tore little slips of paper from the backside of the book and started writing his name on two slips while the other two was taken by jungkook.

They both started folding the paper slips that had their names on. Jimin gathered the papers, ruffled them and tossed it towards taehyung.

Taehyung rubbed his forehead, glancing at his best friend and husband. "Do we really need to do this?"

"Yes!" Their voice superimposed on each other, frustrating taehyung.

"Fine" Taehyung carelessly picked up a slip. He shook his head at their stubbornness while uninterestingly opening the paper fold. His lips pursed into a thin line after reading the name.

"Who is it?" Jimin's impatient voice made taehyung turn the paper at him. "I'm sorry"

"Yes! Yes!" Jungkook jumped up from the couch, shouting out his happiness. Jimin's face dimmed, snatching the paper from taehyung and tearing it off. "It's not fair."

"It's absolutely fair!" Jungkook started laughing like those typical villains in the movies. He cupped taehyung's face, pressing a long kiss on his forehead. "Oh, I love you so much!"

Taehyung chuckled, "It's just a regular appointment with doctor. I don't know why you guys are making it a big deal."

Jimin wished to attend atleast one appointment, but he didn't get a single chance as jungkook is extremely stubborn about taking taehyung to every appointments alone, just him and taehyung. No one else is allowed to take taehyung to the doctor appointments other than him. Joining along is the only available option but jungkook has put certain conditions to avail that offer. It's either winning any game against him or the lucky draw.

"It's important, baby. Atleast to me." Jungkook handed a glass of water to taehyung.

The taunt in his last sentence provoked Jimin the way he wanted, "Stop overacting! I'll get the next one."

Jungkook cocked his brow at his challenge. "In your dreams."

Taehyung reluctantly accepted the glass of water, his mouth filling with a bitter taste. Jungkook ignored Jimin's glare and focused on taehyung's face twisting in distaste.

Jungkook took the empty glass from his hand and gently rubbed his back, "You okay?"

Taehyung nodded at first, but soon started shaking his head, "I'm going to throw up."

"It must be his cologne" Jimin grumbled, earning a brief glare from Jungkook.

"It's okay. Come on, let me help you." Jungkook carried him to the bathroom.

As soon as jungkook placed his feet on the bathroom mat, taehyung quickly opened the toilet lid and spat out the breakfast he had in the morning. Jungkook rubbed his back, while also reaching for the tissue paper box.

"Careful with your nose. Try not to let it out through your nose." He kept his tone steady, hoping to instill some sense of peace amidst the chaos.

With one hand, Jungkook held his long curls in place while the other worked to take off his layered necklace. Vomit on his hair, clothes or accessories had a depressing effect on Taehyung. He reached over to fetch a cool washcloth from the sink, carefully dabbing taehyung's forehead and cheeks so that the coolness from the cloth offers him a slight reprieve.

Taehyung took breaks to wipe his mouth, his body heaving with the force of his morning sickness. He sobbed between heaves, his shoulders shaking with each cry. Jungkook learned not to disturb his sobbing session after he finished retching. With haste, he closed the toilet lid, flushed, and wiped the floor and seat. After done with his work, he sat on the floor with taehyung and hugged him till he stopped crying.
