【Ｃｈａｐｔｅｒ Ｏｎｅ】

I laid in bed fanning myself as Zen laid asleep, my body was sweating heavily and I had pushed the covers off. "Jesus it's hot" I looked towards Zen, his face was peacefully asleep, but not a single drip of sweat. I sat up in the bed and walked towards the bathroom, I sighed heavily from feeling tired and looked in the mirror. My eyes were black under and my gaze moved towards Zen standing in the door way "You ok babe?" I was breathing heavily and shook my head. He placed a hand on my back and flinched after feeling the sweat on it "Mc, you bodies burning up" I splashed water on my face, "Do you want some soup or something?" I shook my head and sighed heavily.

"It's probably just a fevor, I'll calm down soon" I replied the tiredness evident in my voice, Zen's reflection looked pained as he stared at me "I'll put the fan in our room so you don't over heat" I nodded my head. He walked out the room and I watched panting heavily, I started coughing and wiped my mouth. Looking down at my hands I noticed the blood staining them, I washed my hands and then splashed my face again, I watched Zen's body appear in the door way. "I can get you some medicine" I nodded my head. 

Zen was already going with so much during work, I can't make him stress even more about me. I put my hair up and walked to join him back in the bedroom, no amount of wind could stop the amount of heat that had covered my body.

~~~

Zen had left for work and I sat home alone watching the TV, I stared at some breakfast Zen had made for me wishing me to get well. I pushed the bowl away and continued watching TV, I started to cough once again violently. After pratically coughing up my insides, I fell on the sofa watching the TV. My body was still so hot so I just laid still in Zen's t-shrit, which was already drenched in sweat. I knew something was up with me, this wasn't normal, caught up in my thoughts I snapped out when my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and read 'Oppa' refering to Zen.

Zen: "Heya babe, I'm on break so I'm checking in on you" I smiled to his voice "Have you eaten the soup" I looked towards the bowl

Mc: "Yeah, it was very well needed" I lied rolling onto my back "Give it 2 days and I'll be back to normal I promise"

Zen: "And if you're not..." His voice was coated in worry. I felt my body curl up

Mc: "Then I'll have to ask my knight in shining armour to help me out" I giggled painfully. My giggles turned to hard coughs and I heard him sigh on the other side of the phone.

Zen: "Baby, I wish I could be at home looking after you" I stared down at my hand with blood in it "I promise after this I will be your doctor" I smiled at his words curling my fist up hiding the blood.

Mc: "You're already being such a good one" I heard a voice shouting Zen's name on the other side of the phone "See ya oppa~" I wished him goodbye.

Zen: "Sorry jahgi, I love you~"

The phone hung up and I stared at it for a short while, and then towards the hand covered in blood. I turned to the internet, searching up my symptoms I gasped at the answer "Tuberculosis?!" I squeaked reading the most popular website. My eyes scammed the web page and I sat up reading the words "This disease is a serious disease that isn't curable and cause death" Tears plucked my eyes and I put my phone down. I was muttering to myself so many thoughts that whirled into my head, suddenly a thought overtook them all "Wait, the number one rule is not to trust the internet" I chirped snapping my fingers "It's just a stupid fever" I tried distracting myself from the thoughts that lingered in the back of my mind. 

I laid back down on the sofa closing my eyes trying to shake of my fatigue that had control over my body, I soon drifted into sleep.

~~~

"Mc, babe?" I opened my eyes slowly and stared at the white haired man stroking my hair, he smiled sweetly at me "Do you want to sleep in bed not here?" He questioned. I turned my attention to my body laying on the sofa "It's so much cooler out here for me" I replied tiredly, his hand place on my forehead as he felt the heat radiating on my body. His face twisted slightly from worry as he pulled his hand away "You're body is so hot" He looked towards the bowl on the table "And the soup, you told me you ate it" I broke from his gaze.

"I was" I lied "When I was on call with you, but I had to stop" He stroked my hair, and grazed his nose across mine "You're such a bad liar" I sighed heavily.

"I don't know why I just didn't feel like eating anything"

"Do you want me to re-heat it?" I shook my head to his question, his gaze dropped towards the top I was wearing "At least change out of that, it's drenched" I looked down at it. Zen sighed loudly "Look I know you Mc, you don't want me to worry for you" he cupped my hot cheek "But this isn't normal, you don't have to play it off like it is." I sighed heavily looking away from him. "Do you need to see a doctor" I looked out to the dark city outside his window.

"We'll go in the morning" I sighed in defeat to his kind words, he smiled sweetly and combed through my hair "Now promise me you'll never hide anything like this from me again" I nodded my head. "Goodnight Zen" I kissed his forehead and laid on the sofa closing my eyes once again he stroked my hair "I'll stay with you untill you fall asleep" He whispered as I lay still at the sofa.
