The Shadows We Pass [JONGHO]

Chapter 7: Is this reality?

It was yet another morning. Jonghyun wasn't in bed with me this morning, which was quite normal for the usual day. But in a hotel on vacation, what could he possibly be doing? I crawled out of the queen sized hotel bed to check what was going on. I slowly opened the door to Jinki and Taemins room, only to see them sleeping on eachother in their bed. I moved along the space and found the door knob yo Kibum's room. Again, I creaked the door open to see Kibum playing on his phone, all cuddled up in the covers.

"What are you doing Minho?" Kibum asked, sitting up from his previous laying down position.

"Oh, I was checking to see if you were awake, sorry," I apologized to the older whom I disturbed and quietly shut the door back again.

Now more aware of who I could disturb, I continued to walk around the hotel room with caution. I came to the bathroom door, since I had confirmed the location of the other members I opened without any worries.

As I had opened the door, my face was met with Jonghyun's.

"Gah! Sorry!" The circulation was brought to my cheeks, not expecting the turn of events.

"Aw its okay!" My cute boyfriend was laughing at my embarassment. His eyes looked heavy, although he seemed like he was happy, he sure didn't appear so.

"H-hey, you look a little weak, what's up?" I asked the older who's body was slouched.

"Didn't get much sleep, I just feel so sick," Jonghyun placed his hand on his own forehead and continued toward our bed.

In sort of panic mode, I followed behind him, "Are you okay?"

He threw himself onto the bed and lightly whined.

My head was filled with worry, I brought the smaller into my hold.

"I really hope you aren't sick," I looked down into Jonghyun's deep brown orbs.

"I'm really not sure, I've been throwing up constantly all night," He admitted to me.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" I questioned him, the guilt welling up in his eyes.

"I wanted you to rest so we could have fun with the members," Jonghyun hid his face in my chest.

"Well we can't go anywhere if you are throwing up," I cupped his face with my large hand, holding him like an infant. "We had plans to go drinking later."

Jonghyun gulped, "I'll see if I feel up to it," The smaller cuddled himself up onto me, as I soaked up all his affection.
"I think-"

"I'm awake guys!" Taemin interrupted Jonghyun's soft speaking with his excitement.

"Oh hey Taemin," I smiled, looking at the boy in my arms, getting antsy at the thought he wasn't able to finish.

"Good morning! Do you think we should go out to breakfast?" Taemin offered, his lover trailing behind him.

"I think we should, but Jjong is feeling a little sick this morning," I said, Jonghyun removing himself from my hold.

"Okay," Jinki replied, placing his hand on Taemin's shoulder, "Jjong how are you feeling?"

"I'm doing a bit better, I can come with you all," Jonghyun smiled at him.

"Yay!" Taemin happily hugged Jonghyun, squeezing a bit too tight for comfort.

"Aw," He rubbed his face against Taemin's.

"Well you guys can get in the car, I'll get Kibum," Jinki announced, leading us to the door he had already opened.
