Another Bad Blind Date [SPINOFF]

Chapter 29: Aftermath

His body no longer in pain, the sense of numbing and stiffness was all that was left behind in his joints. Eyes shut, he sighed in his sleep, loving the fact that he was able to lay in his own bed and in his own home. Feeling himself starting to drift off again, he was just immensely pleased over no longer being stuck in a hospital bed. Day 2, he mumbled internally, smiling, Day 2 and you're still home Shawny boy.

He didn't catch a figure sneakily making it into his room. Groaning when the figure seemed to jump on his bed and then over onto him, he smiled at her laughter. Eyes fluttering open, he groaned when she sat onto his stomach over the blanket.

"Y/N!" he grumbled, staring over at you grinning profusely down at him.

"Morning!" you chimed, laughing as you went in to pinch at his cheeks.

Ever since the day he was admitted to the hospital and was finally back into their lives, you and the others were beyond thrilled. Shawn was back and here to stay.

"No," he sighed, closing his eyes, "still not morning for me."

You rolled your eyes, looking down at your friend who had been asked to be left alone ever since he got back. You understood his need to get back to normal, but at the same time, you knew he was simply trying to avoid facing the ones that hurt him...Shawn avoided Jimin and Kai at every cost. It doesn't help his case that Kai hasn't left his place since he was discharged from the hospital.

"I love how you think I don't understand what you've been trying to do," you mumbled, poking at his cheeks repeatedly in hopes he'd get irritated and wake up.

He did, he woke up.

"What exactly is that?" he snapped tiredly, trying to get you to move off of him, but your stubborn butt stayed put.

"You're trying to push yourself away from Kai and Jimin...you're avoiding them," you explained smugly, seeing right through the man you called your best friend.

"I just got back," he snapped, "give me a break yeah?"

"Don't need to be rude about it," you snapped back, "they both stayed at the hospital the whole week and you refused to have them see you. When Kai came back here to stay and take care of you, you haven't even allowed yourself to look at her...you've stayed in your room the entire time."

"Again," he sighed out, rubbing at his tired face, "I just came back. Spare me the lecture."

You pursed your lips a bit, uncomfortable to ask him what you had been dying to ask him since the hospital. You had noticed many changes and many surprises with the man.

He slowly looked over at you, eyes narrowing at your form in distress. "Spill it," he piped, trying not to smile at you so quiet. It was a new sight.

"You um," you struggled, "in the hospital...in your jeans...there was this letter and ring I-"

"Okay!" Shawn sang out, forcing out a laugh, he tossed you off of him before moving to get up on the bed, "that's enough of that."

You groaned in frustration as he moved to his bathroom.

"Shawn!"

"How's Kook?" he sang out, changing the subject as he slipped out of his shirt.

"He's been great," you sighed, "well now...we had a few troubles before have worked things out now."

"Troubles?" the man asked, brows furrowing as he lamely started to unbutton at his jeans he had stupidly slept in the other night.

You glanced down at him basically stripping in front of you. Whining, you told him to stop. He looked at you confused; not catching what he was doing that could remotely be offensive.
