Y/n POV
I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling as I tried to calm my racing thoughts. It had only been a few days since I arrived in LA, but it already felt like an eternity since I'd seen Hoseok.
I thought about the text I had sent him earlier, and wondered if he was thinking of me too. I hoped so. I missed him so much, it physically hurt.
I tossed and turned, trying to get comfortable, but my mind kept wandering back to Hoseok. I thought about our time together in Korea, about the way he made me laugh, about the way he held me in his arms.
I sighed, feeling a pang of loneliness. I knew I had to focus on my work here in LA, on saving the branch from financial trouble. But it was hard to concentrate when all I could think about was Hoseok.
Just as I was starting to drift off to sleep, my phone buzzed with a text from Hoseok. I smiled, feeling a surge of happiness. "Goodnight, Baby. I'm thinking of you too. Sleep tight," he had written.
I smiled, feeling a sense of peace wash over me. I knew that no matter where we were in the world, Hoseok's love for me would always be constant. And that thought was enough to help me drift off to sleep, with a heart full of love and hope.

I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. I was in my bedroom, but I had no idea what time it was. As I struggled to shake off the remnants of sleep, I heard a soft, calming voice whispering in my ear.
"Princess, wake up," the voice said gently.
I recognized the voice as Jin's, and I felt a sense of comfort wash over me. I looked over at the clock on my nightstand and was shocked to see that it was already late morning.
I sat up quickly, throwing off the covers. "Oh no, I overslept," I exclaimed, starting to hurry out of bed.
But Jin caught me by the shoulders, holding me in place. "Wait, Y/n, don't get up," he said firmly.
I looked up at him in surprise. "What's wrong? We have to go to the company," I protested.
Jin's expression was serious. "You can't go to the company today, Y/n. You have a fever."
I felt a wave of confusion wash over me. A fever? I didn't remember feeling sick.
Jin smiled softly. "Don't worry, we're all staying home to take care of you today."
I felt a surge of gratitude towards Jin and the others. They were always looking out for me, and I was lucky to have them in my life.
"Jisoo is making some soup for you," Jin said, helping me settle back into bed. "Why don't you freshen up a bit while we wait for it to be ready?"
I nodded, throwing off the covers and swinging my legs over the side of the bed. But as soon as my feet touched the cold floor, I let out a little yelp of surprise. The chill of the floor sent a shiver running through my body, and I started to shake almost immediately.
But Jin was there in an instant, wrapping a warm arm around my shoulders and pulling me close. "Hey, easy does it," he said softly, holding me steady. "Let me get you a blanket or something."
He quickly grabbed a blanket from the bed and wrapped it around me, holding me tight as I shivered. I felt a wave of gratitude towards him, and I leaned into his warmth, feeling a sense of comfort wash over me.
"It's okay, I've got you," Jin said, his voice soothing. "You're safe, and we're all here to take care of you."
I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. I knew that I was in good hands with Jin and the others. They would take care of me, and help me get through this.
After a few moments, Jin helped me to the bathroom, where I quickly freshened up. He then helped me back to the bedroom, where Jisoo was waiting with a warm bowl of soup.
"Here you go, Y/n," Jisoo said, smiling as she handed me the bowl. "This should help you feel a bit better."
I smiled, feeling grateful for my friends' kindness. I took a sip of the soup, and felt a warmth spread through my body. It was just what I needed.
Just as I was taking another sip of the soup, I heard the sound of laughter and playful arguing coming from the living room. I looked up to see Yoongi and Jungkook walking into the bedroom, both of them grinning from ear to ear.
"I'm telling you, I'm the better gamer," Jungkook said, his eyes sparkling with amusement.
Yoongi rolled his eyes. "Please, you got lucky. I'm the one who's been practicing."
Jin chuckled and shook his head. "You two are at it again, I see."
Jisoo smiled and handed me another spoonful of soup. "Eat up, Y/n. You need your strength to deal with these two."
Jungkook shot Yoongi a smug look. "I'm not just lucky, I'm skilled. I can take down anyone in that game."
Yoongi snorted. "Oh yeah? Well, I've been watching you play, and let me tell you, it's not pretty. You're all over the place."
Jungkook's face turned red with indignation. "Hey, I'm a great player! You're just jealous because I'm better than you."
Yoongi raised an eyebrow. "Jealous? Of you? Don't make me laugh."
The argument continued to escalate, with neither side willing to give in. I watched them, amused, feeling grateful for the distraction from my illness.
Jin finally intervened, chuckling. "Alright, alright, let's not fight about it. We can settle this once and for all with a gaming tournament."
Jungkook's face lit up. "Yes! I'm so down for that."
Yoongi grinned. "Bring it on. I'm going to crush you."
I laughed, feeling happy to see my friends having so much fun. Despite being sick, I was having a great time watching them bicker and joke around.
Jin's expression suddenly turned serious, and he sat down beside me on the bed. He looked at me with a stern gaze, and I could tell that he was about to scold me.
"Y/n, didn't I tell you to take care of yourself?" he said, his voice firm but concerned. "Yesterday was your first day back at work after our relaxation time, and I specifically told you to pace yourself and not overexert yourself."
He shook his head, looking disappointed. "But no, you had to go and push yourself too hard, didn't you? And now look at you - you're sick, and you're stuck in bed."
I looked down, feeling a twinge of guilt. Jin was right - I had been stubborn and refused to listen to his advice. And now I was paying the price.
"What were you thinking, Y/n?" Jin asked, his voice rising in frustration. "You know you're not invincible. You need to take care of yourself, not just for your own sake, but for ours too. We need you healthy and happy."
I felt a surge of regret and apologized again. "I'm sorry, Jin. I wasn't thinking."
Jin sighed and rubbed his temples. "Y/n, you need to start listening to us. We're not just saying these things for our own amusement. We're saying them because we care about you and we want to see you happy and healthy."
He looked at me sternly. "So, here's the deal. You're going to rest and recover, and you're going to do exactly as we say. No arguing, no complaining. You're going to let us take care of you, and you're going to focus on getting better."
I nodded, feeling a bit chastened. I knew that Jin was right, and I was grateful for his concern. I was lucky to have brother like him who cared about me so much.
