Unexpected Love (Fanfic for B.A.P's Zelo)

The Unexpected Gift

Claire's POV

As I help him to go inside, I noticed that he's holding a paper bag. I didn't manage to open it. I put it on the living before I helped Junhong to get inside his room and let him lay on his bed. I removed his shoes and covered him with blanket. I sat beside him touch his forehead again. This time he is more hotter.

I quickly headed downstairs to get a towel and a bowl of warm water.

I gently dab the wet towel on his forehead and let it stay there and went to the kitchen to reheat the soup that I brought from mom. As I stir the soup, I wonder what made Junhong to stay outside like that, especially in this cold weather. That jerk! he's really stupid sometimes and I think there is something wrong with his brain.

After I feed him and let him take some medicine. I decided to leave him for a while so he can rest. But as I opened the door Junhong called my name. I paused and look at him. His eyes are closed. Is he dreaming?....dreaming about me?

Aish! Claire don't be a feeling! why would Junhong dream about you!!

Maybe I just misheard him. But as I walk out from the room Junhong called my name again, clearly.

"Claire....Please stay.." he said

"but you won't able to rest if I'm going to stay here" I replied

"please.... just stay beside me until I sleep" he insists

"okay, I'll stay here" 

I sat on the chair beside Junhong and look at him as he get some sleep. I don't know why, but there is part of me that make me want to stay beside him and take care of him until he gets well.

Maybe, just maybe..... I like him.

Junhong's POV

As I opened my eyes, I felt that someone is holding my hand. I look at it then saw Claire, she's the one that holding it. I felt happy when I saw her face that peacefully sleeping beside me. I get up reached her face with my other hand then tucked her hair on her ear. I gently caress her face and watch her as she sleeps. If I could just stare at her like this all day, I think I'll be so happy. I'm about to touch her cheeks again but then she's about to wake up so I decided to go back on my place and pretend that I'm still sleeping. I slowly opened my left eye to see if she's already awake. Finally she get her head up and yawn. I closed my eyes again when she's about to look at me. I felt her soft hands dabbed on my forehead.

"I think youre okay now" she muttered

Claire's POV

I gently dabbed my hand on Junhong's forehead to know if he's okay now. Thankfully his temperature is not that worst than last night. When I looked at his sleeping face I found it really cute. He looks like a innocent child sleeping peacefully. Suddenly I just found myself grinning. Yah!! why the heck are you smiling Claire??!!

When I'm about to look away from him I realize that my fingers are entwined together with Junhong's.

Don't tell me we're holding our hands together for almost 9 hours???!!!!

Aish!!!

I tried to unravel my hands from him but then his hold become tight. Is he already awake?

"J-Junhong.... are you awake?" I bit my lips

There is no respond so I think he's still in dream land. I sigh and tried to separate my hands again but his grip became more tighter.

Aish!! This jerk!! why don't he just let go of my hand?! aaarrgggghhhh! I hate him.

As I looked at him I saw his lips, slowly forming a curve. So he's already awake! And he's doing it on purpose.
