Chapter 29:Angels in disguise

Author POV

The morning sun streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room, but Jimin barely noticed. The throbbing in his head had started before dawn, and now it had spread, making his whole body ache. Every attempt to move sent waves of dizziness through him, forcing him to stay put under the covers.

He groaned softly, his voice hoarse and weak, trying to muster the strength to sit up. His vision blurred as he reached for his phone on the nightstand. The screen lit up with unread messages from Taehyung and Jungkook. He smiled faintly at the sight of their names, but the simple act of reading their texts left him exhausted.

"Not today" Jimin mutters as he look over the messages. His heart ached at the thought of worrying them, so he forced his fingers to type a quick reply, assuring them he was just a little tired. But even as he sent the message, a wave of dizziness washed over him, and he had to close his eyes to keep the room from spinning.

Not long after, his phone buzzed again-this time with an incoming call. The sound barely registered in his fevered mind.Jimin hesitated for a moment, not wanting to alarm them, but he couldn't ignore it. He swiped to answer, bringing the phone to his ear with a shaky hand.

"Hyungie, are you okay? You don't sound right" Jungkook said, voice filled with concern. "Just a bit tired, love. It's nothing serious" Jimin replied weakly.

his voice lacked its usual warmth, and Jungkook immediately picked up on it. Jimin could hear the soft murmur of Jungkook talking to Taehyung in the background, their tones anxious.Before Jimin could protest, he heard Taehyung's voice in the background, filled with worry.

"Hyungie? What happened to you, are you sick?" Taehyung asked this time.Jimin sighed, knowing he couldn't hide it from them any longer. His voice cracked as he tried to reassure them. "Just a bit under the weather, love. I'll be fine" Jimin mutters.

Taehyung and Jungkook's concern only grew more as Taehyung said, "We're coming over, hyungie.You can't be alone in this state" Taehyung state firmly.Jimin, upon hearing that, slowly shakes his head. "You really don't have to, love.I just need to rest" Jimin replies weakly.

"We're not taking any chances, hyungie. We'll be there soon" Jungkook cuts in, the two was determine to look over Jimin at any cost.

Before Jimin could argue further, the call ended. He let the phone slip from his fingers, too exhausted to care. A part of him felt guilty for making them worry, but another part was deeply comforted by their insistence. He closed his eyes, letting himself drift off into a restless sleep, knowing his angels would be by his side soon.

Jimin wasn't sure how much time had passed when the familiar sound of his front door unlocking pulled him from his feverish slumber. He blinked slowly, trying to focus his blurry vision as Taehyung and Jungkook entered his apartment, their faces etched with worry and determination.

Jungkook was at his side in an instant, kneeling beside the bed and brushing the damp hair from Jimin's feverish forehead. The coolness of Jungkook's hand was a welcome relief against Jimin's burning skin. "Hyungie, you're burning up.Why didn't you tell us sooner?" Jungkook scolds lightly.

Jimin tried to offer a reassuring smile, but it came out as more of a grimace. He reached out, his hand trembling slightly as he cupped Jungkook's cheek, comfort vivid in his touch. "Didn't want to worry my angels" Jimin replies softly.

Jungkook's eyes softened, and he leaned into Jimin's touch, pressing a tender kiss to his palm. His voice was a gentle murmur, filled with affection and concern. "You can't do this, hyungie.When sickness ticked in, you have to tell us" Jungkook said as he held Jimin's burning palm.
