( too lazy to proofread 🙊 )

The receptionist lost track of time seeing the handsome man coming towards the counter. When her mouth couldn't close, Taehyung tapped his knuckles on the desk, getting her out of the 'whatever' stupor.

"H-How can I help you, Sir? " He blushed in embarrassment and tucked her already tucked blonde tresses behind her ear.

"I'm looking for a patient, Jeon Jungkook."

" Oh, wait, um..Room no. 16, Sir, left corridor, 2nd Floor."

Taehyung climbed the stairs in a hurry and ran his eyes over the lobby to locate room 16. It barely took him 15 minutes to reach here. A chatter could be heard from inside the room when he turned the knob to open the door.

He didn't think twice before approaching Koo and sitting beside him on the bed. Koo lifted his upper body to move and claimed the inviting lap of his hyung. Taehyung already knew it so he helped Koo to gently climb onto his thighs without hurting the injured foot. 

"How are you feeling now?" Taehyung asked him, combing his fingers in Koo's wet hair. He could register Koo's abnormally heated body against his. The fever was still there.

"I don't know," Koo replied frowning and pouting, he wasn't looking into Taehyung's eyes like always. "Well, you will be feeling fine if you let Doctor Jihan treat you. Shall we call him? "

"Nu, he wants to give Koo needles."Koo rocked his head in no.

Taehyung signaled his parents to call the doctor. "Eomma, appa, why don't you go and buy Koo's banana milk from the canteen."

They both rolled their eyes and exited. They were pretty relaxed now that Taehyung was here. He will handle Koo's tantrums. Mrs. Kim inhaled the fresh air, craning her neck out of the window of the canteen which opened toward a small garden of the hospital where a patient was doing his walking exercises with the help of staff.

"Hey, Young man. Are you ready?" As soon as Koo saw Dr. Jihan, he nestled his head into Taehyung's chest. His pout grew big and his eyes brimmed with fresh tears. He heard the tearing of the injection cap and his fist enclosed over Taehyung's shirt on his back.

Taehyung encircled his arm around Koo's shoulders and nodded his head in acknowledgment. "Where would you take it Koo, thigh or arm?" He asked Koo in a whisper.

Koo simply extended his arm out. By now, his sobs were not quite enough to ignore. " Shh....It's gonna be okay..."

"Aren't we brave today? Giving arm without any struggle." Dr.Jihan appreciated Koo while filling the injection with a colorless substance.

Koo bit his lips to stop the sobs. He clenched his eyes feeling his sleeve gliding up to his bicep. Taehyung caressed his waist and pecked his head, "Koo, do you like Hobi hyung?" He whispered again.

"Yesh.." Koo nodded, he felt the drag of a wipe over his tricep.

"How about he teaches you new dance moves?" Taehyung pressed his cheek on Koo's hair.

"Will he?" Koo asked back, whispering. His body flinched when the needle pierced through his porcelain skin. A bunch of tears glided down his eyes, but he didn't let the whimper out.

"He will. He said he would love to be your dance teacher." Taehyung informed, whispering.

Koo didn't say anything just hummed.

"Koo.."

"Hm.."

"There is one more."

Koo snapped his head up from where he was hiding in Taehyung's neck. He thought it was over and he was brave today but, one more. He felt betrayed, so he glared at Dr. Jihan who was preparing another needle.
