Bambam sighs as he gets up from his bed, and walks toward the kitchen, wanting to get a small snack and go back to bed. As he walks back to his room, he sees Yugyeom's door slightly ajar, so he peeks his head in. 

Yugyeom is still curled into a ball, facing the wall. Bambam leaves and sets his snacks in his room before he walks back to the younger's. Yugyeom hears footsteps coming inside his room, so he flinches, squeezing his eyes shut. 

"C'mon, fag, get up," Bambam whispers, slightly shaking Yugyeom.

"W-why?" he meekly whispers, not wanting to get up.

"'Cause I said so. Now get up or I'm going to get the belt."

Yugyeom meekly whimpers and uncurls himself from the ball. He stands up and winces at the strength he is using to stand up. Bambam notices this but doesn't bother to help.

"Follow me," he orders, walking away.

Yugyeom limps after Bambam and sees that they are in the kitchen. Yugyeom raises an eyebrow. Why did Bambam lead him here?

"W-why a..are w-we h..here?" he asks.

"To fly to outer space, and meet some aliens. Why do you think we're here, Kim?" Bambam replies sarcastically as he grabs an instant ramen bowl from the pantry.

"B-but I..I'm n-not h..hungry. C-" Yugyeom tries to complain.

"Yes, you are. Now stop complaining. You're going to eat, and that's an order," Bambam cuts the other off, scowling.

Yugyeom bites his bottom lip and waits for the ramen to cook in the hot water. A few minutes later, Bambam hands him the ramen and a pair of chopsticks. 

"Th-thank y..you," he whispers.

"Go wait at the table. I'll be there in a few. Don't make any noise. I don't want the rest to wake up," Bambam demands as he searches for another instant ramen bowl.

Yugyeom complies, and turns around to walk, but ends up slowly limping, the pain in his body too much to handle. Yugyeom almost drops the ramen because of his limping. Once Yugyeom is at the table, Bambam is already done with his ramen, so he is also at the table.

Bambam starts eating, whilst Yugyeom just sits there, watching the vapor from the ramen go in the air.

"Are you not going to eat?" Bambam asks, not sparing a glance at the other.

Yugyeom nods and tenderly holds the chopsticks in his hands. He grabs some noodles and starts eating. His stomach instantly rumbles, demanding more. Yugyeom begins eating at a fast pace, Bambam not caring.

In just a few seconds, Yugyeom is done, but because he ate so fast, and hadn't eaten in days, he has to go throw up. He springs up from his chair and sprints to the bathroom. He quickly throws the toilet seat up and vomits the ramen he just ate.

Bambam's eyes widen as he follows after Yugyeom. The younger keeps on throwing up for another few seconds or so before he falls against the side of the bathtub, his face pale. He clutches his stomach in pain and coughs weakly.

"You shouldn't have eaten that fast, you disgrace," Bambam mutters as he cleans the toilet seat up and flushes it.

Yugyeom whimpers in pain as he tries to stand up. He leaves the bathroom and heads toward the dining room. He sits down and picks up the ramen bowl, but he doesn't want to eat. 

"Continue eating, but eat slower this time," Bambam says, sighing as he sits down.

Yugyeom weakly nods, picking up the chopsticks again. He slowly enters some noodles in his mouth and slowly chews then swallows. After he swallows, he feels bile rising in his throat again, so he sets his chopsticks down and pushes the plate of ramen away from him.

"I-I'm s...sorry, b-but I...I d-don't w...want t-to e...eat a-any m-more," he mumbles, scooting his chair back, and hanging his head low.

Bambam scowls. "Fine. You can leave now."

Yugyeom quietly whimpers, struggling to stand up, wincing once he does. "T...thank y-you."

Bambam ignores him, turning back toward his food. Yugyeom frowns as he limps slowly back to his room, more tears rolling down his face.

"Bam, you fatass. You ate two bowls of ramen in the middle of the night," Jackson jokes, slapping the younger on the shoulder.

The side of Bambam's lips turns up. "You're actually wrong, Wang. It wasn't me who ate the second bowl. It was a certain someone."

Jackson's eyes darken as Bambam stops speaking. "That little piece of shit. He knows he has to wash his plate after he uses it."

Jackson passes Bambam, heading toward Yugyeom's room. Bambam trails after Jackson, wanting to see what happens. 

As Jackson and Bambam enter the room, they see Yugyeom sleeping, a frown on his face. Jackson smirks, but his eyes glint evil. 

"Hey, fag, wake up," he orders.

After Yugyeom doesn't, Jackson scoffs, and kicks Yugyeom, making the younger wake-up. "P-please d-don't."

"You know you have to wash your plate after you use it. So why didn't you?" Jackson says through gritted teeth, pulling Yugyeom up by his hair.

"I-I'm s-sorry. I...I f-forgot-"

"Shut up," Jackson seethes before he slaps Yugyeom across the face.

Yugyeom bites his bottom lip as his cheek stings. Jackson then kicks Yugyeom's stomach before walking away, leaving Bambam standing in the doorway. Yugyeom doesn't notice Bambam, since he is squeezing his eyes shut. Bambam scoffs and walks away.

But now he feels bad.

Later that night, when the oldest five are asleep, Bambam walks to Yugyeom's room, holding a medical kit in his hand. He walks over toward Yugyeom, sitting down on the chair the youngest always keeps in his room, before shaking Yugyeom.

"Yugyeom, wake up," Bambam whispers.

"Y-yes?" Yugyeom replies, not wanting to be hit again.

"Don't move," Bambam orders as he opens the medical kit.

"W-what a...ar...are you d-doing?" Yugyeom asks.

"I'm going to take care of your wounds," Bambam mutters as he grabs a cotton ball.

"W-why?" Yugyeom stutters, confused why Bambam would do this since he hates the younger.

"Because..." Bambam hesitates, but he sighs. "Because you're still my best friend, and I love you."
