The church's bell ringed sending invisible vibrations as it mixed with the cold breeze of the evening, you closed your eyes shut feeling the ramming of your heart inside you.

"Are you alright miss?" The cab driver asked looking at you through the rear view mirror. You had passed by a church on your way back home, and it's probably exactly 6pm since the bells were being sounded already.

You nodded and smiled weakly.

You haven't done anything that day but just sat inside Jungkook's office with Hoseok while you both waited for the havoc outside to fade, but still, you felt tired and drained.

Hoseok escorted you out of the building after, making sure that no one sees you before calling in for a cab to bring you home.

It still bothered you though, you haven't even had the chance to talk to Jungkook again the whole day and you haven't seen the guy after the presscon. He looked tired and stressed the last time you saw him up close this morning when he cupped your face with his warm, soft hands-----...

Wwwwhhyy are you even worried about him?

Shaking your head to get rid of the thought you payed the driver with the fare Hoseok forcefully gave you as you finally reached your apartment just in time for the rain to start pouring out.

After taking a warm bath, you half awake-half asleep changed to a pair of shorts and oversized white tee, you just wanted to sleep comfy tonight that's all, --- or so you thought you will until a loud prompt knock on your door brought you running towards it, totally forgetting that you had no bra on, and your oversized shirt was too big making it looked like you only have your panties on.

You swung the door open and a drenched Jungkook appeared in front of you.

"Y/N..." He mumbled, your eyes widen as he started to approach you closing the distance between you. Your sleepiness vanished hearing the door behind him automatically closed and you slowly walked backwards, wrapping your arms around your body protecting it from Jungkook but he didn't stop walking until he reached for your arm and landed his head on your shoulder with a slight impact. You managed to keep your balance but his weight was starting to bore on you so you placed your hands on his bisceps while you tried to push him away with all of your strength, you even tried punching him but he still didn't respond, and only then you did realized that he actually fainted. Eyes widen as you instinctively ran your palms on his skin and you were shocked by how hot his skin felt against your touch.

After a few tugs, and a few dragging, you finally reached your room and threw his body on the bed with a grunt as you watched the mattress bounced due to the impact of his weight. He started groaning pulling on his damp shirt while shifting uncomfortably on the bed which made you remember that he actually got wet from the rain.

I have to, or he'll get worse, you thought to yourself.

Trying your best to be as cautious as possible, you get rid of his socks and shoes first. But your hands started to shake when you slowly remove his shirt out, you were careful not to wake him up and also afraid of the hateful memories from when you were younger flashing before you but you still made yourself to do what you had to do since you couldn't just let the guy sleep with his wet clothes on especially when he has a fever. A heavy sigh left your mouth as you finally able to remove his shirt completely which of course revealed his well built upper body.

You gulped peaking through your fingers while you placed your left hand on your eyes to cover them, your other hand was holding Jungkook's wet shirt as you threw it on the laundry basket, and you patted on Jungkook's pants after thanking the higher power that the fabric was not made of cotton allowing you to just brush off the few droplets of rain on it.
