KIDULT (SEVENTEEN FF)

Faint

Early in the morning, when the sun isn't up yet the colour of the sky is prominent to look at, everyone in the dorm of seventeen is sleeping a pale figure is tossing around on the bed while clutching onto his stomach. His eyes fluttered as he opened them. He looked at his side to find his boyfriend still sleeping soundly and the babies were also sleeping soundly in the middle of the couple. Everything felt peaceful yet noises were roaming in his head. He felt like someone is banging his head hard, his head was throbbing with pain. He was feeling nauseous. He slowly walked to the bathroom and washed his face. He bent over the sink gagging but nothing came out. He stared at the reflection of himself in the mirror.

"Seungkwan get yourself composed.", he spoke to himself.

Then he left the bathroom slowly, his legs were wobbly as dizziness started to engulf his mind. He again slept on the bed, waiting for sleep to take over him but he felt more restless as time passed. He shut his eyes tightly trying to divert his mind from the throbbing pain in his head.

Time passed and it's already 7 in the morning when Vernon's eyes fluttered due to the sunlight hitting directly at his face. He sat up, rubbing his eyes and looked at the side to find the two babies are still sleeping, he smiled at them but noticed that Seungkwan's place was empty. It looked like untended.

'Where could he have gone?', he thought.

He got up and left the room. He heard music coming from the gym. He walked towards the gym and opened the door to find Seungkwan working out.

"Baby!", Vernon called out.

Seungkwan who was so immersed in working out, came out of his trance and looked back.

"What are you doing here this early?", Vernon asked again.

"Keeping myself fit.", Seungkwan replied.

"You look pale baby. Are you sick?", he noticed how thin Seungkwan got.

"No I am fine its just a little stress.", he tried to reassure Vernon.

"Take it easy baby, we all are here for you. You can talk to anyone you want.", he hugged Seungkwan.

Seungkwan just flashed him a genuine smile.

Soon everyone woke up and gathered in the dining area. Everyone was talking with each other making a loud chaos. Mingyu was cooking while Dino helped him with the dishes. Soon the breakfast was served on the dinning table.

"Guys now dig in.", Mingyu sounded loud and cheerful which obviously made The8 annoyed as he rolled his eyes.

"Yasss!", everyone cheered except The8.

After breakfast, everyone was ready to leave when Mingyu spoke, "The8 are you alright? You look restless."

"I'm okay.", The8 said grumpily.

"What happened? You sound a bit off.", he again asked

"I already told nothing is wrong.", The8 raised his voice.

"The8! I get that the choreographer's words were harsh but that doesn't give you the right to yell at anyone. If you have forgotten Mingyu is still older than you. You should respect him. Apologise to him now.", DK said stepping forward to stop the upcoming fight.

"It's okay, no need to apologise.", Mingyu replied keeping his hand on DK's shoulder.

"Oh please stop your good act for a while. I know who you are in reality. So please shut your mouth.", The8 said and dashed out of the main door.

"What's wrong with him? We need to talk to him. That's not what we do.", DK said.

"He might be upset from yesterday's incident. We should give him a little space.", Mingyu said shrugging his shoulders.
