•• Bambam's POV ••

"-What?" Yugyeom asked me. I sighed deeply. He looked at me with worry in his eyes. How should I..?

I looked at Jin hyung and he nodded to me, signalling I should just do it quickly like we planned. "Okay okay." I said as I bit my lip "I can explain..."

~ One explanation later ~

Yugyeom looked up at me. I was worried he would say some things like "Get away from me!" or "Why would you do that?!" but... No. He said nothing. Did nothing. He just sat there, looking up at me with this blank expression. Why isn't he saying anything?

"Yu... Yugyeom ah?" I asked quietly as I waved a hand in front of his face. Youngjae must've noticed as well as he also kneeled beside Yugyeom. He shook him. No response. "Yah! Yuggie?" He said loudly in his ear. Still, no response.

I sighed, realizing what was happening. It was that again. That weird thing Yugyeom does. "It's back again isn't it?" I asked Youngjae who nodded sadly. "Yes. Yes it is" He muttered and continued to shake Yugyeom.

Everyone in the room sighed, except for Jackson. Ofcourse he doesn't know of that. He hasn't hung around Yuggie long enough to know about his "conditions". But we all do, all of his close friends do.

After a few shakes Yugyeom finally... "woke up" if you may call it that. He blinked once and looked to Youngjae with a confused expression. "I did it again didn't I..?" He asked sadly. Youngjae nodded and fixed Yugyeom's bangs out of his eyes. "You did hun... Remember what Dr. Min said... It'll occur mostly when you think too much. If you keep overthinking, it'll keep coming back..." He explained.

"Okay..." Yugyeom smiled. But behind that smile I see sadness... I'm his best friend since daycare. He can't hide anything from me anymore.

•• Jackson's POV ••


I watched as Yugyeom seemed so motionless and... Lifeless as Youngjae shook him. What was wrong with him. "It's back again isn't it?" I heard from Bambam to which Youngjae nodded to. What is back? What do I not know?

After a few shakes Youngjae finally got Yugyeom back to reality. Youngjae explained a few things to him but I was still left in the dark about all this. Finally I spoke "What are you all talking about? What do I not know?" I asked impatiently. Being left in the dark irritated me a bit.

Everyone looked at me. Bambam patted me on the shoulder. "You see here hyung... Yugyeom suffers from this condition... It's called Vasa... Vaso... Vasavo-" "Vasovagal Syncope." Youngjae continued for Bambam as he was having a hard time with the pronunciation. I nodded to signal I understood "What is it?" I asked.

"It's one of Yuggie's many conditions. This one's wherein not enough blood flows to the brain, this is mostly caused by Yuggie's unbalanced neurotransmitters. In result, he mentally blacks out. Sometimes he does so physically as well... It's generally harmless but in a certain scenario it may lead to..." Youngjae gulped before continuing "Death..."

I nodded then looked to Yugyeom sadly. He simply shrugged and smiled brightly at me, he stood up and hugged me as well. I chuckled and ruffle his hair. "Don't leave me..." He muttered as he shook in his arms. Huh..? "Why would I ever do that Yuggie?" I said, lifting chin with my finger, making him look at me.

I saw tears in his eyes and I frowned. "Because... Because... Because a person once found out about all my conditions... He. He left me..." Yugyeom said as he let the tears stream down his face. I hugged him "Why the f*ck would someone do that?! That's cruel and heartless... And I'm not that type of person. I'll never leave you Yuggie, no matter how many problems you have" I smiled at him and kissed his forehead.

He smiled. "Come on Yugyeom ah! Your last boyfriend was a jerk to leave you for that stupid reason!" Jungkook said and Sungjong agreed "Mhm! A total a**hole!" Jin hit Sungjong on the back of the head "No swearing! Especially you kids!" He exclaimed. Sungjong, Jungkook and Bambam pouted, knowing they were the "kids".

"Wait. That was Yuggie's boyfriend?" I said through gritted teeth. They all nodded "Yeah. They were even good friends of ours before" Youngjae said sadly. "Oh God Yuggie, I'm glad you have glasses now cause you must've been blind then! How could you have dated such a guy?" I joked and he giggled a bit "I don't know... He was nice at first" He muttered.

"Yeah, at first. Then it went downhill from there" Bambam said. "We're lucky those bruises on you faded Yuggie" I clench my fists. Bruises? I already don't like the orientation on this guy. "Like come onnn! Who would give their own boyfriend bruises! Talk about abuse!" Sungjong commented, huffing.

I looked at Yugyeom, who chuckled nervously. "He hit you?" I asked firmly, Yugyeom nodded and looked away. "He was quite the jealous type... Whenever I'd hang out with friends, he'd think I was cheating on him... Then "punish" me..." He looked a little teary again as Yugyeom rubbed a spot on his arm.

I hugged him tighter. "Oh Yugyeom ah... I promise that I would never let anyone hurt you again. No matter who they are. And if someone does. I'd make sure they'd pay... And that's a promise" He giggled and smiled up at me despite the tears that escaped were running down his face. I wipe his tears and ruffle his hair up.

"Awww~!" Jungkook, Sungjong and Bambam all chimed. Jin looked at them, irritated. "You guys ruined their moment!" He said, pinching each one on the cheek. They all pouted. "But it was suuu cute!" Sungjong announced. "You could've internally fangirled! Like them" Jin pointed to Youngjae and Namjoon.

"Hey!!" Both of them yelled. We all laughed at their silliness. I glanced at Yugyeom and admired his smile. He has this wonderful eye smile whenever he laughs. The way his eyes crinkle and his white teeth show as he swings his head back. This boy before me is truly breath taking...
