⚠️ Spoiler alert ⚠️
Jungkook pisses himself at some point due to a grand mal seizure. Some people don't like reading that so just skip the part where this ⚠️ emoji is used. I don't particularly want it to happen either but it happens sometimes when people have certain types of seizures. I'm almost trying to raise awareness of how serious seizures can be in a way.Jungkook was burning up even before the concert. He had been sick for a few days whilst they were travelling to America, but was recovering quickly. Thankfully he could still attend interviews and rehearsals, with only a pink tinge on his cheeks as a sign of illness.
However, Jungkook's temperature had risen the day of their first show. It was firstly noticed by a stylist trying to do Jungkook's makeup, who commented on how hot he felt. He decided not to tell the others; he knew that Jin would try and cancel the whole concert, and Namjoon would follow him around all day with fever-reducers. And the others… well they just wouldn't shut up. So yeah, no telling the members.
He wiped his brow as he went over the moves for Idol. He was waiting for the stylist to bring the rest of his outfit to the dressing room, so he had a few moments of privacy before that happened. If he was being honest with himself, he wasn't feeling so great. His head was throbbing slowly, as if he was in drugs. He had never taken drugs, but this is what he imagined it to feel like.
"Sorry about that, here's the rest," the stylist said, rushing back out of the room immediately after placing Jungkook's prince-like gold patterned jacket on the counter. Jungkook already felt hotter than usual, but adding a jacket to the mix was definitely not going to help. He sighed, putting the jacket on and ducking down into the area under the stage.
"Five minutes!" Someone shouted, causing all of the members to leap into action, receiving last-minute makeup checks and going over choreography. Jungkook managed to find fever reducers after raiding Yoongi's bag, so he took them with some water, hoping that they would kick in soon enough.
And then came the actual concert. Idol was first, which was absolutely horrible. If Jungkook was being honest with himself, it was always horrible, but he loved performing so much that he could usually get past the muscle pains.
Not today.
Every fast movement sent sparks through his joints. He could feel himself burning up even more, and the pills sitting at the bottom of his empty stomach, doing nothing to help his condition. So much for fever reducers, he thought. After Idol was Save Me and I'm Fine, which went relatively well. Then there was Magic Shop, which involved just standing around so Jungkook was okay with it. He could feel his heart rate decreasing to a normal state during the song, and he felt the relief go through his body.
When the song ended, Jungkook stumbled off the stage and was ushered over to the dressing room where he was given his outfit for Euphoria. Firstly he took a minute to cool himself down, pressing an ice cold water bottle to the back of his neck and fanning himself. Then he got changed and stood patiently for a makeup touch-up.
"Jungkook, your face is really red."
Namjoon was stood behind him, fixing his microphone pack. He wouldn't be able to hide it anymore, not from Namjoon. Jungkook sighed and said,
"I feel like the embodiment of the colour red."
Namjoon put the back of his hand against Jungkook's forehead, retracting quickly when he felt how hot the boy was. Namjoon knew that Jungkook's flu hadn't fully disappeared yet but he didn't think it would come back in the form of a worrying fever.
Before the exchange could go any further, Jungkook felt himself being guided over to the stage entrance as he heard the end of Just Dance being played. He knew that he wouldn't have been able to cope if he had to perform his solo first. He didn't know how Hobi did it.
