It was meant to be (A Seventeen Fic)

The doorbell rang.

But everyone was up in Seokmin's room.

Finally debating on who would go down and open the door, Jungkook volunteered when he saw Yoongi glaring daggers at everyone present in the room.

His brother was lying there burning in fever and they had the nerve to fight on who'd open the door.

He asked everyone to move out of the room as the doctor would need to check Seokmin.

In the room, there was only Yoongi and the doctor.

"What's wrong with Seokmin?", asked Yoongi to the doctor.

"I am just trying to find the reason as to why he is burning with fever", said the doctor while inspecting Seokmin.

The Doctor didn't seem to understand why Seokmin fell sick all of a sudden.

"Did he eat something unhealthy?"

"No"

"Does he get nightmares?", asked the Doctor.

The question itself surprised Yoongi.

Seokmin? And Nightmares? When did these two words come in the same sentence?

"No. He is a happy-go-lucky guy who loves making others happy", said Yoongi.

"Something has traumatized him, something is troubling him for sure", said the Doctor.

Yoongi looked baffled.

"Something is troubling his brother and he doesn't know about it?"

"Seokmin would have told him if something was bothering him right?"

"So now what exactly is happening with him? Is the fever going to be reduced?", asked Yoongi.

"I will prescribe some medications, and give them to him two times a day. His fever should be reduced within an hour. If not then we need to hospitalize him", said Dr Dong Min.

"When will he gain his consciousness?"

"I have given him an injection, he should wake up in fifteen minutes or so".

"Ok thank you, Doctor"

Yoongi walked him to the door.

"Hyung what did the doctor say", asked Chan as soon as saw Yoongi.

"He didn't know what caused Seokmin to get a high fever. He said Something has traumatized him", said Yoongi sighing.

"Something traumatized him?", asked Soonyoung.

"Yeah the doctor said so"

"But Seokmin doesn't have anything to be traumatized about", said Mingyu.

"Yeah, that's what I am thinking. The doctor even asked me if he is getting any nightmares?"

"Nightmares? No Seokmin doesn't get any", said Soonyoung.

"How can you be so sure? What if he hides it?", asked Wonwoo.

"While I used to stay here, I used to sleep in Seokmin's room with him so of course I know"

"Okay so let's assume that Seokmin doesn't get nightmares, so what could have traumatized him that he got a high fever all of a sudden?", asked Jungkook.

"Why assume? I am telling you he never got nightmares", said Soonyoung.

"Okay then answer the question, what traumatized him?"

"Maybe Jihoon's outburst?"

"What? Are you crazy?

"Think about it. Seokmin considered you as his sibling, he loved you a lot. Then all of a sudden you go and lash out at him about how you are jealous of him and how he gets everything without even asking for it, how he is everyone's favourite and all. Don't you think he must have felt sad? In fact, as his sibling, you should have known that Seok tends to overthink every little thing", said Soonyoung.
