Some time passed before Y/N could get back to her senses from touching Taehyung's lips. The man himself slept peacefully, probably due to the fever medicine.

Y/N secured the blanket around him and started reading the fever medicine manual. It stated that another pill should be taken if the fever persisted after four hours.

After four hours it would be 3 am..

Y/N wanted to set an alarm but was worried it would disturb Taehyung's sleep, hence she decided to force herself to stay awake.

While waiting, she reached out to touch Taehyung's forehead several times and felt his body temperature fall. After enduring the four long hours, it was finally 3 am. He was no longer burning but was still running a fever.

Y/N was worried that Taehyung would start burning up once she fell asleep, so following the previous method, she fed him the medicine again.

The previous time she fed him medicine, she had left his lips immediately, but this time, she lingered greedily on his lips.

She lingered only for a few seconds before frantically lifting her head, breaking the contact. But as soon as she pushed away, she suddenly felt someone pulling her head down. Her lips were once again deeply entwined with Taehyung's.

His high fever caused him to be delirious. He vaguely sensed that someone was taking care of him but yet it felt like a dream.

Hazily, he felt someone stuff something into his mouth. It was bitter and a little dry and just as he was about to spit it out, he felt gentle, cushion like lips blocking his mouth.

It was a familiar feeling.

Y/N froze in fear, her mind blank. By the time she came back to her senses, they were already deep in the kiss.

Y/N quietly predicted Taehyung's next actions. Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at him and saw that he wore a dazed expression.

He must be treating the whole incident as a dream!

The memory from three months ago flashed past Y/N's mind once again.

At that time, the incident had happened when Taehyung was not in the right state of mind as he was right now, and when he woke up, he was so angry that he had wanted to strangle her to death.

A shiver ran through Y/N's spine. She instinctively reached forward to push Taehyung away.

Taehyung frowned. Grabbing her hands, he forced her to keep still.

Y/N struggled desperately but was still not able to break free. When she was finally too tired to move, she stopped, giving up.

He clearly was not interested in sleeping with her, but the fever must be clouding his thoughts, for him to have pulled her close.

If he were to find the same thing from three months ago to have happened again..

Y/N stopped her thoughts, not daring to continue down that road. She bit down on her lip, offering Taehyung the liberty to do whatever he wanted.

(you knew what happened ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Satisfied, Taehyung drew Y/N into his arms before falling back into a deep slumber.

Y/N was beyond tired, but yet she could not fall asleep. She waited for her senses to return, and her first thought was to leave Taehyung's arms.

Even though she yearned deeply for his embrace, longing to stay there a little longer, she knew that it did not belong to her. His arms were not hers. He was only willing to hug her now with the fever clouding his thoughts.

It was all a mistake.

Just as Y/N was about to remove Taehyung's arm from her waist, the corner of her eye caught sight of her phone.

She hesitated slightly before reaching for it. Opening the camera app, she took a photo.
In the photo, she was in his arms, and he was in deep sleep.

Even though he was hugging her, it was not his true intention. Still, she longed to be there.

With a photo, she could secretly relish the moment, privately admire him, trying to convince herself that maybe he truly wanted to fall asleep with her in his arms.
