-tourette's syndrome (request!)

jungkook been tic-ing like mad since age seven. at first his parents swore he was putting it on for attention. for most kids his age it was normal to lie your way through life and get away with it, however jungkook was usually well behaved - and wasn't one to tell fibs, which is why it hurt him more that his parents didn't believe him.

it got so bad that one day he was sobbing, laying on his bedroom floor, jerking his head and making high pitched sounds with his mouth. his father watched disapprovingly, waiting for jungkook to get bored and give up. the vocal tics mixed with the sobbing and the terror rising in the little boy's throat caused him to run out of breath. his tiny body eventually gave up, and he passed out.

"finally given up this silly little game jungkook?" his dad stood over the boy, waiting for him to open his eyes. "jungkook, get up."

he shook the boy lightly, before panicking slightly. "jungkook it's not funny anymore, you're scaring daddy." he waited a few more seconds before scooping him up and holding him close to his chest. guilt filled the father's body as he stared at his son, who was slowly coming round again. "daddy?" jungkook muffled, bleary eyed. his dad kissed his forehead lightly. "daddy my head hurts."

"i'm sorry baby, so sorry." he lifted jungkook onto the bed and tucked him in, stroking his sweaty hair. "you really were telling the truth, weren't you?"

jungkook just nods, too exhausted to speak. the nod turned into a jerk then an "ah!" sound. he winced in pain, his entire head was throbbing. his father has to bite back his own tears, unable to believe he ignored his son for so long. the second he closed his child's bedroom door, he phoned his wife - and then the doctors office.

his many appointments , brain scans and psychological exams eventually led to the diagnosis of "tourette's syndrome" it was just two big scary words to jungkook, but to his parents it was a bit of a relief, finally getting an explanation as to why their son wasn't "normal"

he was tried on numerous kinds of medications , some of them made him feel lousy and sick, others made him extremely hyperactive - but none really suppressed his tics. after a year of looking for some miracle meds, the parents gave up, and jungkook had to learn to get used to life with tourette's.

laughter is a wonderful thing. it's so joyful, an act of happiness and excitement. they say that laughter is the best medicine , right?

to jungkook, most laugher he heard was at him. at school, in shops, out in public, even with relatives - people would laugh at jungkook's outbursts.

sometimes it was okay to laugh. jungkook himself found it humorous when he threw food at his brother or yelled something inappropriate in his mother's ear. these harmless acts usually warranted a giggle or two out of the now teenager.

however when jungkook's tics get so bad that he's knocked to the ground, sobbing in pain and embarrassment whist his father tried to constrict him - the laughter from people around is suffocating.
