A BaekYeon Story

14 - Stay

If it's not because of her boyfriend, Taeyeon would never leave her apartment in the middle of the night like this. It was extremely cold that day and she wishes to stay under the blanket while dozing off to her dream land.

She wished.

About an hour ago, she got a call from Baekhyun. His voice sounded weak and so she becomes worried.

"Hey, what's with your voice?"

"Hm? Nothing, I just miss you..."

"Baek... are you ok?"

There was a long silent before he responded, "actually I am sick right now, my body hits 39,6 degree celsius,"

"WHAT!?" Taeyeon jumped out of her bed. She put on her glasses and turned on the bed lamp. "Since when? Baekhyun, that was damn high! Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Because of this... I know you'd be worried sick but relax okay, I am fine..."

"How could you say you are fine when your voice is so hushed and hoarse? I'm going there!" Taeyeon is already on her feet when she heard him whining, repeatedly telling her not to come.

After five minutes of debating, Baekhyun gave in to his insisting girlfriend. Although he refused her to come, he actually wished she was there next to him tonight. He missed her so bad and nothing but her presence could actually cure.

Leaving her car, Taeyeon runs to the elevator of the parking lot of Baekhyun's apartment. She pushed the button impatiently with lots of plastic bag on her hands. The elevator door opens and she entered immediately. Dropping the bags to the ground, she pulled out an access card to her boyfriend's floor. She made sure that her cap and scarf are enough to cover her face so people will not recognize her.

Baekhyun heard noises from his front door and drag himself to check it out. There he saw her girlfriend, all covered in black t-shirt, black jeans, black cap and black scarf. She looked surprised when she saw Baekhyun's standing in front of her. She immediately drop all the groceries she had into the nearest table and took of the cap and scarf she wore.

"Hey...," she looked a bit breathless when she finally get a clear view of Baekhyun. Her heart aches when she saw how pale he looked right now, his messy hair and his reddened cheek.

"I'm sorry I made you come all the way to here," he mumbled. The back of his hand touches Taeyeon's cheek.

"Baekhyun, you are burning," she flinched when she felt the temperature that radiates from Baekhyun's hand.

"I am hot I know," Taeyeon rolled her eyes. How could this guy still jokes when he is that sick? Without any word, she took his hand and pulled him into his bedroom.

"You shouldn't be walking around, you know?" she said as she pushes him into the bed.

"I felt bored,"

"But you need to rest. Now be a good boy and lay down," he nodded weakly when he saw the stern look of his girlfriend.

"Have you take any medicine?"
