Heya I love your writing! can I request an Itzy fic where Yeji falls during a performance and gets hurt but hides it from the members. Ryujin notices it later in the dorm and is worried but upset that yeji hid it
It wasnât a bad fall, but it was certainly enough to catch a lot of unwanted attention. Yeji had lost her footing and really she didnât think it wasnât that bad. She was running off the pure rush of just getting through the performance stage and not letting the fans down. She knew how much they had been waiting for this day and wanted to make it worthwhile.Â
By the time the stage was over, she ignored the pain in her ankle, choosing to believe that it was just a small pull rather than fussing over it. She quickly changed, keeping tabs on her members before they were allowed to leave.Â
It had been a very long time since they had done anything to the fullest extent. They were very much used to covid rules and everyone staying home as much as possible. Now that the world was slowly returning to normal, they were greeted with fans, cameras, everything. Things they were used to before.Â
Yeji continued to ignore the pain in her ankle, focusing on the fans instead. She waved, smiled, and even took a few small letters after getting the okay. By the time they made it back to the dorm, everyone had gone off doing their own things, everyone relaxing after a long day of promotions.Â
The leader winced at the sudden sharp pain in her ankle, deciding to sit on her bed before moving more. She slid her sock down, seeing just how swollen it was getting now. She let out a breath, knowing it was going to be something that would hold her back. She couldnât let that happen this soon.Â
She did her best to hide her pain as she walked out of the room to the kitchen, making a quick ice pack for herself before hiding back in her room.Â
Ryujin noticed how quiet the leader was and was unsure of everything. Usually, Yeji was the one to keep them going after promotion and now she was hiding away from everyone. She figured it mustâve been because she was tired, so she shook it off for a few moments. Until the nagging feeling in the back of her mind told her to go check.Â
She walked into the bedroom, seeing the leader immediately throw a blanket over herself before being seen. Ryujin raised her eyebrow at the leader, watching her carefully.Â
âWhat are you doing?â Ryujin frowned.Â
âHm?â Yeji watched her, afraid to even move at this point.Â
âWhat are you doing?â She repeated the question, watching her friend shrugged her shoulders before looking down at her phone.Â
âJust relaxing.â She muttered. âIt was a long day.âÂ
âWhat are you hiding?â Ryujin continued to pester the older girl, watching as Yeji continued to deflect the question. She ended up grabbing the blanket, struggling with tugging it away as Yeji had a very tight grip on it. It wasnât until she had nearly fallen over, grabbing the bed with a free hand, hearing the leader take in a sharp breath the second the hand made contact with her leg.Â
Ryujin immediately pulled away, watching as Yeji had a pained look on her face.Â
âUnnie⊠What happened?â Ryujin frowned.Â
âI fell on stage⊠I ignored it and now itâs swollen and hurts a lot.â Yeji explained. She hated feeling like this. She hated expressing the pain she was feeling. She never wanted the girls to worry about her. Ever.Â
Ryujin ended up leaving the room, a look of sadness on her face as she left. Yeji hated herself for saying anything. She knew that the girls would be upset with her. She was a little surprised to see the younger come back with a new ice pack and painkillers.Â
âHere, itâll help with pain and this will help with swelling,â Ryujin muttered, handing off the pain killers to the leader.Â
Yeji took them without question, frowning at the younger that was now tending to her swollen ankle.Â
âYouâre upset,â Yeji whispered.Â
âBecause you hid it from us. Hid it from me.â Ryujin frowned as she placed the ice pack just so. âYou shouldâve told us immediately. We wouldâve helped you.â She added.
âYou know how I feel about that,â Yeji muttered.Â
âAt least me.â Ryujin sighed. âPromise me you wonât do it again?â She asked.Â
âI promise,â Yeji whispered.Â
âGood. Now letâs watch videos and relax.âÂ
