Taehyung's POV

The darkness of the night illuminates from the window infront of me. I slightly turned and saw the faint silohuette of Jungkook's soft breathing. I glanced at my watch on my bedside table,

"Hmhp, 11:37 pm." I mumbled to myself. I really can't sleep anymore. The first night here was a blast. I jerked in our shared bathroom thinking about Jungkook. I really don't care about who tops. If he wants to top, then I can handle it. I don't really care anymore as long as Jungkook is happy.

Hobi hyung's words resonated in my head back and forth, I hate to admit it. I really hate it.

I found myself starring at his beautiful, gentle sleeping figure. He makes my heart beat so fast, make me flush, make me forget everything. Everytime he is with no one but me I feel butterflies flying in my stomach. I get jelous when he looks too happy if it is not because of me. I wanted to be with him, not caring what would happen in the future.

I gently carressed his soft skin. I'm falling, I'm falling in love too badly, too fast. Jungkook, what have you done to me?

I don't know if I should be happy, or sad or afraid. I can be gay, for him. For him only.

I can't tell you if I really did this on purpose. I sat beside him, barely hovering over his body when I froze. He suddenly shifted and now his face was only a few inches away from mine.

Gosh, his gently parted sweet lips were enough to drive me crazy. But I knew, I knew despite being #Taekook I can't risk it all. What if he never felt the same? After all he said...

I stopped as I stopped the urge to slightly tear up. I recalled his words earlier...

Awkward.

Maybe I was thinking too much. He apologized but somehow it was bugging me, peircing my heart. I can't loose him.

I stood away but my eyes never  parted from him.

I slowly leaned down and placed a small chaste kiss on his forehead. It sucks, loving someone who is so near yet very far. It sucks knowing that no matter what I do, I still can't admit it to him that I had fallen in love with him. Not just fallen, but fallen deeply in love with him. Jeon Jungkook.

"I love you..." I softly whispered and went back to my own bed lost in small tears and frustrations.

I slowly awoke again. My head was hurting and my body felt numb. I noticed soft light illuminated from my window.

I sneezed.

Oh no. I can't believe I caught a cold. My eyes were a bit puffy because of my silent cries of frustration last night.

I refused to get up. Instead I crawled deeply into my sheets and slowly hoping to drift back to sleep. My head hurts like bitch, and I felt so cold that I thought I would freeze. I silently coughed and let sleepiness take over me.

Jungkook's POV

I was currently outside early in the morning doing some stretchings with Hobi and Namjoon hyung. They were breaking more firewood for the bath and Jin hyung's dishes for breakfast.

"Taetae still not up?" I noticed  as Jimin walked out cutely rubbing his eyes. I turnes to Hobi hyung's question.

"I don't know, he usually annoys me every morning but today was annusual, as I wake up but he still seemed fast asleep." I answered which earned me. a shrug from Namjoon and Jimin.

"Well, nothing is wrong as long as he wakes up before Yoongi hyung. Then nothing would be unusual." Namjoon hyung said as he piled the words he just broke.

"Hm? Yoongi hyung is already awake. He is brushing his teeth." Jimin absentmindedly said.

I stared agape, so was the other two.

Okay, something was wrong.

The five of us were sitting on the dining table to wait for Jin hyung to serve the food.

"Taehyung is still not up?" Yoongi hyung turned to me. I nodded. I really feel worried. It was almost 8 am and he usually wakes up extra early to stretch even back in the dorms, but now...

"I'll go check on him." I stood up and headed to our room.

I peeked at the slightly opened door and saw a ball of comforter at the side.

It was slightly shivering.

"Achooo!" Taehyung sneezed loudly.

"Hyung? Are you okay?" I slowly headed to his bed.

I went to his side and saw his flushed face, shivering figure and slightly furrowed brows. His teeth were gently gritted and it looked like. he was in obvious pain.

Oh shit.

I held his forehead.

It was burning. So hot that I thought my hand would burn.

I was starting to panic.

I ran outside with an obvious panic and worried shout at the kitchen.

"Help! Taehyung is burning!"

********

After a few moments, Jin hyung was already applying basic precautions in having a cold.

"Oh dear, 37.8 degrees." H mumbled and took the thermometer from his unconcious body.

"He looks exhausted." Namjoon said as he handed Jin hyung a cold compress.

"Looks like it. I guess he needs rest. I'll prepare him a porridge." Jin hyung said as he went outside.

My worried face was still intact.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Yoongi assured me while Jimin hyung nodded. They all went outside but my body was stiff. It would not move.

I sat beside Taehyung's sleeping body and observed his gentle breathing.

"Be well hyung."

"You like him. Don't you?" A voice chimmed in which startles me.

"H-Hyung." I said as I saw Yoongi coming in with a tray of food in his hand.

He smiled gently and handed me the food.

"Jin hyung told me to bring this here. It's for you, you should eat you know?" He said and I nodded

"Thanks,"

"You know, you still have'nt answered my question but judging from your flustered face I'll take that as a yes." He smiled and ruffled my hair.

"I-I,"

"Your'e secret's safe with me." He placed his hand on my shoulder and walked out the door.

My heart pounded so fast. I looked back at my sleeping hyung, and told myself :Do I really like  him?

"You know hyung? Last night I dreamed about you. I dreamt that you kissed me on my forehead softly and mumbled something." I softly said to his peacefull form.

I chuckled silently.

I wished that happened in real life. That would have been the best sleep in my entire life.
