Bts sickfics (cause there really aren't enough)- REQUESTS CLOSED

Yoongi-epilepsy

ayo im back! I've not had much inspiration recently, but i think i'm getting it back so, here we are. This was requested (a long time ago by now lol) by @myusernameiguess so i hope you enjoy! (also thanks to my good friend moonchild_hobi for helping me with this chapter)

also just adding on, today, as of writing this, we got the news that our lil yoongs had surgery 🥺 so lets all wish him a speedy recovery!

Yoongi suffered with epilepsy since he was a child. It was much worse back then, but after trying various medications, they found one that works well enough that yoongi rarely suffered seizures other than for if he was particularly distressed, or fell over or something.

Unfortunately for yoongi, he nearly got rejected by bighit when it was revealed he had epilepsy. No other company wanted to take him. Bighit was the only one who even considered it. Even then, it took careful consideration.

When he got the message saying he's got in he was over the moon. Originally he just wanted to be a producer, but Bang PD thought that his rapping skills were too good to go to waste. So he became a trainee.

Yoongi was nervous to move in with his bandmates at first. He was too scared to open up to them about his epilepsy, so he kept it a secret. However this could put him in danger if he had a seizure and none of the others knew how to help him. He hid his pills at the very back of the bathroom cabinet in hopes no one would find them. It was a struggle for him, but he just couldn't bare the thought of having to sit down and tell them he was epileptic. What would they think of him?

"Hi! I'm Kim Taehyung!"

The new band member arrived at the dorms and introduced himself. He had a bright boxy smile and a cheeky and lively aura about him. He wasn't very shy, thats for sure. yoongi didn't like him. He didn't like how loud and energetic he was. Yoongi was a quiet type, he liked things to be quiet and chilled out, not loud and bombastic. A part of him wanted to drop out simply because he didn't know if he could stand to live in this small cramped dorm with these seven other boys, some of whom were loud and energetic, and he couldn't stand that.

Yoongi just clenched his teeth and bared with it. After all, this was his dream. He wasn't about to give up on his dream purely because one of the bandmates was a little annoying. That would be a stupid move. So he bared with it, no matter how much this new taehyung kid annoyed him.

The next morning, yoongi went to the bathroom as usual, quietly reaching to the back of the shelf to grab his pills, only he couldn't feel it where it usually was. He felt around, but couldn't feel anything. He pulled everything off the shelf. Nothing. His pills were gone.

Instantly, his mind flooded with flashbacks of past fits, visions of him having a seizure in the dorm or at the studio and no one being there to help him. His chest tightened. He doesn't want that. At all. He had no choice but to ask the others. He couldn't survive without those pills.

He leaves the bathroom and speedwalks to the living room to find the others, not even bothering to mask his panic. This was urgent.

"has anyone seen my pills?" He blurts out.

"...pills? what pills?" Namjoon asks, looking very confused. Yoongi looks at everyone but they all just look confused. "I've never knew you had pills, what are they for?"

yoongi freezes. The words don't come out. He needs to tell them. but he can't. The words just won't come out. Yoongi continues to scan everyones faces, but they all just look confused. Then he gets to taehyung. He doesn't know the boy well enough to read his expression well, but he swears the boy is hiding something. Yoongi didn't answer namjoons question, and just stormed off.
