I would love feedback on this one or talk about in general
Sick Lee know feat Caretaker Hyunjin and Chan (mostly Hyunjin)
Warning: mention of vomit and acrophobia
-
As soon as Minho woke up he knew today wouldn't be such a good day. Since the morning Minho felt bad, not too bad to be really concerning enough for him to speak up about it but bad enough that his stomach has kept him up all night long. He doesn’t know what he did wrong or what it is, but his stomach kept on hurting and churning through the whole night. He couldn’t do anything but curl up under his blanket and rub his aching middle. At some point in the night he had enough and took medicine. It helped enough that he could sleep for a few hours. However, as soon as he woke up he noticed that the ache that settled deep inside of his stomach didn't go away overnight.
Even worse is that today they're having a filming day for their show. Which means they have to be somewhere the whole day and solve missions. He already knew where that somewhere was. It's an amusement park. The last place he wants to be today. The only good thing is that he was allowed to wear what he wanted for today's schedule.
So that's how he ended up getting a baggy hoodie and pants that were rather loose on his stomach. As he walked to the bathroom he could already hear some yelling. Someone probably tried to wake up Hyunjin but couldn't wake him up.
As he arrived in the bathroom he brushed his teeth and fixed himself. He changed into fresh underwear and pants. For a moment he just stood there without wearing a shirt having the extra pressure from the waistband of his jeans on his upset stomach isn’t the most comfortable thing eight now. He placed one hand on his stomach, he softly rubbed small circles on his stomach, in hopes that it would calm down. It bought him some sort of comfort, but it was still aching badly and was churning under the palm of his hand.
Suddenly he felt really hot. Sweat formed on his forehead. He squeezed his eyes shut for a moment and held himself up on the sink. He felt dizzy but it didn't take long until it went away. He took a deep breath. Wondering what just happened. Maybe it was just the lack of sleep.
He looked in the mirror. His stomach was slightly bloated. Not by much, probably no one would notice. But he sure did notice.
Shaking his head as a weak attempt to get his mind to shut up, he put his hoodie on.
Minho walked out of the bathroom and joined Changbin, Seungmin and Han on the dining table. He grabbed a bowl and filled it with some rice. Although he doesn't feel hungry he knew he had to eat at least something.
Without saying anything he listened to the conversation. Seugmin and Han being the ones who are excited for today's shoot. Already talking about the rides they want to go in. Changbin on the other hand wasn't so excited as he was scared of most of the rides. Minho couldn't agree more with Changbin this time. He wasn't scared of the rides like Changbin was but he certainly is afraid of the rides that put him high above the ground.
Sure he can power through it but it's nothing he could enjoy. Except they let him sit out on most rides but knowing their company and managers that wouldn't be an option. Of course he knew that he could still say no if it made him panic too badly but he also doesn't want to burden everyone. Also he doesn't want to disappoint the fans too much with the lack of his appearance. So he knew there's no way out. However right now his stomach is giving him more trouble than anything else. He doesn't know what's exactly going on. For now he tells himself it's just nerves. It could be a possibility as he is really concerned about the rides. He really hoped it would go away soon.
The first thing that annoyed Minho was the car ride. The seatbelt was constantly digging in his sensitive stomach, making him even more uncomfortable. Somehow along the way to the amusement park Minho could feel a change in his stomach, the ache got worse and slight cramps started to kick in. It wasn’t too bad to speak up yet. However, he probably wouldn’t even speak up, not now, it’s just a stomach ache. He’s an adult, he can handle that. But, the truth is he wished for some kind of relief. His thoughts got interrupted as someone tapped his arm.
"Wanna listen to the new beat I made?" Chan asked as he offered one side of his headphones.
Minho just nodded and accepted. He placed the earphone in and listened to it. It was a slow beat. Nothing too hectic. It sounds calming.
"See, I'm working on his new song. It's really special to me. Do you like it so far?" Chan asked
"Yes. It sounds really calming. Not your usual beats but I really like it so far." Minho said honestly.
Chan couldn't help but smile. His eyes formed crescents as his dimples popped out and his ears turned red. "Ah it's far from good, but I try my best." He chuckled
"How are you holding up?" Chan asked quietly that only Minho could hear him.
Minho's eyes widened a bit. Worried that Chan already catched on. "What do you mean..?" He asked
"I know you don't like most of the rides. I'm sure it's stressing you out already." Chan said
Minho hummed "Yeah, I'll be okay."
Chan smiled softly "You know, if you really don't want to go in one ride you can say no. They can't force you. No one will be mad at you. Especially not the kids or me."
"Idiot." mumbled Minho but a small smile appeared on his lips. Secretly he's grateful for Chan's words but he wouldn't admit that out loud.
The rest of the car ride wasn't much but talking here and there. Some bickering between Hyunjin and Han. Seungmin making the driest jokes and everyone laughing about it. It wasn't long but they all enjoyed those quality moments.
As they arrived they all weren't expecting the park to be so big and full of people. To be honest they all did enjoy that other people are there too, it made it seem like more like a free day than work.
The staff explained the rules to them.
They had to split up in pairs of two and had to clear the missions that are in the envelope each duo would get. The duo who solved the most mission is the winner and could decide on a penalty for the losing team and on top of that would get free coupons for a famous restaurant. They all were hyped for the prices. Especially the part were they can decide what the losing team should do.
One of the staff members spoke up. "And here are the teams: Chan and I.N. Felix and Changbin. Han and Seungmin. Hyunjin and Lee know."
They all were happy with their teammates. Minho was a bit disappointed, he did hope to be teamed up with Chan as he wasn't feeling so well. But he knew he could count on Hyunjin in these situations too and maybe his body would be fine by then. Right now his stomach clamped a bit down and he's distracted by excitement. The park sure does look like fun and maybe he doesn't even have to go on any big rides.
So that's how the teams split up and all started their missions.
Minho opened the envelope with the first mission and read it together with Hyunjin.
"Find a slide and slide down..?"
Hyunjin snorted. "We're not toddler's."
Minho arched an eyebrow "Are you sure you're not one?"
Hyunjin just looked at him, rolling his eyes.
"Let's find one, I wanna win this and go on rides!"
He basically dragged Minho with him and it didn't take until they found a slide in the kids section. Minho couldn't help but laugh as Hyunjin tried to go on the slide. It just looked so gunny. Especially with Hyunjins long legs. You could almost say that he looked longer than the slide.
"Well I would say we cleared the first mission!" Hyunjin shouted as he ran over to Minho and the staff.
"You did good. You really looked like a toddler." Minho grinned
Hyunjin smacked Minhos arm and stuck out his tongue. Making the older laugh and rolling his eyes himself.
"So what's the next mission?" The older one asked the staff.
They handed them the second envelope and this time Hyunjin opened it.
As Hyunjin read it the started to laugh.
"It's your turn this time." He said to Minho.
The older arched an eyebrow. "What is it?"
"It says you should order some food and then tell them you ordered something else." Hyunjin explained
Minho sighed in annoyance "Seriously? That's- ugh okay I'll do it."
So that's how they ended up ordering something at one of the food shops there.
"Excuse me.." Minho started
"Uhm we ordered a salad but you gave us an corndog.."
The crew members staff eyes widened "I'm Sorry sir." She started
Minho interrupted her. "It's okay. We take it anyways. Here's your money. Keep the change. Have a nice day."
He said without an interruption and immediately went as far away as possible. Corndog still in his hand.
"That was embarrassing." Minho said
Hyunjin bursted out laughing. "I didn't expect it to go this way but I guess we cleared the second mission."
"Oh shut it. You wouldn't have done it any better." Minho said while rolling his eyes.
He held out the corndog to Hyunjin
"It's your food? You can eat it." Hyunjin said. Confused why Minho would share the food with him, he just bought.
Minho grinned. "Eat it or I'll let you eat tissues again."
Hyunjin held up his hands in defeat and nodded. He then took the corn dog and took a bite out of it.
"Taste good?" Minho asked
Hyunjin nodded "You want some?"
Immediately Minho shook his head. "No thanks."
Hyunjin just shrugged and continued to eat. Minho on the other hand was glad that he was away from any restaurants. The smell of the food messed up his stomach again. He had it under control because he was distracted by the missions. Actually it was fun. He didn't expect to have fun today but he had. However, that smell made his stomach turn. Right now he has it under control again, but he can't help but wonder what's wrong with him. However, he was happy to have Hyunjin by his side right now. The younger one was a good distraction.
While Hyunjin was eating, the older one checked out their next mission. His face paled as he read what they had to do. He sat down on the bench next to Hyunjin and read the letter over and over again. The younger one noticed that something was going on so he leaned over Minho's shoulder and read the letter. They have to go on a ride and not any ride but the freefall tower. Hyunjin nudged his elbow against Minho's side. With his other hand he took the letter out of his hand to have it out of Minho's sight.
"You know you don't have to go." He mumbled
Minho nodded. There's no way he's able to ride that thing. It looks terrifying even from a distance. But it's a short ride and he really doesn't want to disappoint anyone.
"I can go alone on that one." Hyunjin interrupted Minho's thoughts.
"No its okay. I'll be okay. I'm just a bit nervous." Minho insisted.
Hyunjin frowned but didn't say anything else. He knows he could mess everything up if he pushed the older too much. He was glad that Minho admitted to being nervous. Usually he wouldn't do that that easily. So Hyunjin knows better to push his limits. He sure would keep an close eye on Minho though.
"Can we take a short break?" Hyunjin asked The staff.
Minho wanted to say, he wanted to say he doesn't need a break, that he is fine and no one needs to worry. But Hyunjin didn't let him.
"I need to digest my food." Hyunjin laughed
Minho looked at Hyunjin. That was a lie and he knew that Hyunjin has a strong stomach when it comes to those things but Minho chose to ignore that for now. He was glad about that break. No cameras on them for about 10 minutes. Minho could relax for a moment. He leaned back on the bench and closed his eyes. Enjoying the background noises and ignoring everything else around him or what was going on in his body.
On the other hand Hyunjin watched the older one closely. He noticed the sweat that was forming on his Hyungs forehead and how his brows were furrowed. He knew something was wrong but he wasn't so sure if Minho was just nervous or if it was something else. He just hopes that his Hyung would talk to him if it's getting too much. For now he would just enjoy the break.
A few minutes later the break was over.
"You good to go?" Hyunjin asked.
Minho nodded. "Your stomach has digested?" He teased
Hyunjin nodded proudly as he patted his own stomach, making Minho laugh.
Now they made their way over to the ride. The line was long, they probably had to wait there for around half an hour. Minho doesn't know if he was happy about that or not. He looked up at the tower and swallowed. It was huge. Minho watched as the ride started. It slowly went up and stopped at the top for a moment only to rush down at a rather high speed. Minho swallowed and looked down. His stomach is rolling just by watching others be on that ride. He looked over at Hyunjin. The younger one seemed fine or more like he seemed very excited. He tried to keep a straight face. He couldn't crumble before the camera, in front of Stay. He remembered Chans and Hyunjins words. He doesn't have to go on that ride. He only had to speak up. But that was the problem. He couldn’t. He was far too embarrassed and he knew he had to almost beg the staff to not let him go on that ride. They all knew about his fear of heights but sometimes the staff didn't really care. They made him do those things anyway.
While waiting in the line Minho got more and more restless as each minute passed. He tried his best to not show it but it was so hard to keep the facade. He could feel his stomach acting up, cramps started to go through his system. The nagging feeling is now full on aching. He started to sweat and feel somewhat lightheaded. Minho fumbled with his fingers. Nervously he looked around. The staff and camera right behind him, making him even more nervous. All the noises and people didn't help his case either. His breath got faster as they moved in line. Now being only a few minutes away from getting on the ride. He didn't notice how place he gone and how much he was shaking until he felt someone grab his hand and stroking softly over it.
"Hyung?" Hyunjin mumbled loud enough to be heard by Minho but not be catched on by the camera or staff. "You really don't have to go if you don't want to."
Minho shook his head. "I can do this."
Hyunjin sighed. "No you don't! You're shaking. I know you're scared, everyone would understand."
"I'm not. It's nothing. I'm fine." Minho spoke sternly.
Hyunjin squeezed the olders hand now speaking softly . "Do you want me to tell them, Min?"
Minho crumbled at the nickname but shook his head. "I want to go on that ride."
Hyunjin sighed. Not satisfied with the answer but accepted it. He couldn't change the olders mind but the least he could do was be there for him. So he leaned against the older and rested his head onto Minho's shoulder. His hand still holding firmly onto the older one's. Minho was glad to share the touch right now. Usually he wouldn't accept comfort this easily but with how anxious he was feeling right now he was glad to share it. Beside that his stomach twisted uncomfortably. The waiting is stressing him out and he just wants to go home. He’s just so done. The older gave Hyunjins hand a hard squeeze. He took a glance around. There are so many people. Was the freefall tower always that big? He doesn’t know. But right now it feels too crowded in the line. He's sweating more and more by now, his hands felt clammy but cold. He felt like everything around him was spinning. The dizziness wasn’t too bad, but it sure was uncomfortable. His heart is pounding in his chest, too fast for comfort. It feels like it’s jumping out of his thorax. He took a deep breath and squeezed Hyunjins hand again. His stomach churning. His chest feels tight and air is bubbling up. He swallows it down the best he can, but it feels sour and only leaves discomfort. Hyunjin didn't know what to do anymore. He couldn't change Minho's mind. So all he could do is be there for him. He caressed with his thumb over Minho's hand. His head is still resting on Minho's shoulder. He just wanted to take the olders hand and drag him out of here.
The thoughts got interrupted by Minhos stomach rumbling rather loud which surprised Hyunjin. The younger one looked up and saw how Minho's ears turned red. Probably in embarrassment.
"Hungry?" Hyunjin tried to joke.
Minho just shook his head which concerned Hyunjin even more. "You feel sick?"
"Nervous.." Minho mumbled.
Hyunjin nodded as he gave Minhos hand another squeeze. "We're next. We still can go and just turn this mission down."
"No. No I'm fine." Minho said. Knowing he didn't even sound convincing at all.
Without changing another word they went up to the ride. It finally was their turn. Minho just want it to be over with. It couldn't be that bad. He could do this. He had to. Now as he sat in the ride, seatbelt closed, he couldn't say no anymore. However, the panic got worse and worse. His hands were shaking, breath hitching up. He could feel his heart pounding through his whole body. The ride hasn't even started yet but he wanted it to end already.
The seatbelts fastened and slowly the ride started to get up. Now Minho really was about to panic. He tried to take a deep breath but he couldn't get any air in his lungs. He couldn't help but panic.
"I wanna go out. I-" He stopped in the middle of the sentence. Too scared by the whole motion of going up further and further.
Hyunjin widened his eyes. "Shit. Hyung we can't. It already started. We-"
"I wanna go out, please. I can't do this. I really can't." Minho said. Now full on panicking.
"Hyung. Look at me." Hyunjin tried but couldn't catch Minhos attention.
So he took matters in his own hand and turned Minho's head to look at him. "Only look at me, okay? Don't look down. I'm right here. Take a deep breath with me."
Hyunnin grabbed Minho's hand and gave it a squeeze.
Minho nodded. His hand squeezed Hyunjins until his knuckles turned white. He probably did hurt Hyunjin but he couldn't think about it and neither said Hyunjin anything about it.
He tried to take a deep breath. Finally getting some air into his lungs. He still was scared but he had Hyunjin. He could do this. However, his stomach had other plans. It twisted and cramped. With his free hand he grabbed at his stomach. It felt hard to the touch and he could feel it churning under his finger tips. He felt like he was about to get sick.
While the ride went further up he only took deep breaths and held onto Hyunjin like a lifeline. He just wants it to be over. He should have listened and just not go on this ride. Why was he so stupid? He should have just taken Hyunjis offer. He didn't even need to say anything, the younger would have taken the blame. Oh why was he so stupid. He's regretting everything he has done today.
As the ride stopped at the tip Minho made the mistake to look down, the view made him dizzy but he couldn't even think about it as the ride suddenly dropped. Not only the ride dropped but his whole stomach too. His breath got stuck in his throat. He couldn't even scream, all he could do was squeeze his eyes shut and squeeze Hyunjins hand as hard as possible. The drop didn't take long but to Minho it felt like hours. He didn't even realize that the ride was finished and he finally could get out of it. All he had in mind was his stomach that is now in his throat. He swallowed and swallowed but it didn't seem like he could keep his contents down.
Hyunjin noticed that something seriously was wrong with Minho as normally he would escape out of those situations as soon as possible.
"Hyungie?" Hyunjin asked
Minho wanted to say something. Wanted to say that he needs to go to the bathroom and that his stomach is killing him right now. That he feels like he will lose his dignity right here and now. As soon as he wanted to open his mouth a wet burp came up. He wrapped his arms around his stomach and hunched over slightly. Moaning in discomfort as the nausea increased. His stomach was cramping and the nausea was almost unbearable. He was in a cold sweat and squeezed his eyes shut. His breath hitched and he started to breath in and out loud and uncomfortable. The contents in his stomach swirling and sloshing around. Air bubbles stuck in his chest and he couldn’t do anything else but press his arms into his aching stomach
“Min Hyungie..?” Hyunjin asked softly, reaching out to touch the olders shoulder.
With a gag Minho lurched forward and a thick stream of vomit landed on the floor. All he had this morning made its comeback and it wasn’t tasting good at all.
Quickly Hyunjin was by his side and rubbed his spine up and down.
“It’s okay. Just let it up, that will make you feel better.” He comforted
Everyone around Minho froze, some of the other amusement park guests and the staff looked in shock but mostly in disgust at the idol. Hyunjin noticed the looks around them and tried his best to shield his Hyung away from everyone. Their staff members didn't do anything, only standing there. Hyunjin started to get really angry as he saw the cameraman was still filming them.
"Turn that damn thing off!" He spat.
His attention immediately going back to Minho as he gagged up another round of sickness.
After a few minutes that felt like hours Minho finally was empty, he spit one last time onto the ground and wiped his mouth with the tissue that Hyunjin held out.
„Sorry ‘m don’t feel good..” Minho slurred, voice thick.
“Shh, it’s okay.” Hyunjin took the olders hand and squeezed it softly.
Minho looked up and only now he registered what was happening. The whole crew was staring at him and to make it worse strangers also stared at him. Some held their hands in front of their nose and scrunch their face up in disgust. Others were snickering. Minho was beyond embarrassed. He just threw up in front of everyone. This is humiliating. Tears welled up in his eyes and he looked up at Hyunjin.
"Jinnie.." he mumbled. Trying to keep his tears from rolling down.
"I'm here. I'll get you out of here." Hyunjin said.
And so he helped Minho to walk out of the situation. The older leaned his body against Hyunjin. He couldn’t think straight right now as the whole situation overwhelmed him. His stomach was still aching badly and the ride was horrible. On top of that he humiliated himself in front of the crew and strangers.
Hyunjin helped him sit down on a bench that was shielded away from most people so they had some kind of privacy. Minho sat there his whole frame shaking as he couldn't hold back the tears. He ain't one to easily cry but right now he couldn't care less. He hid his face in his hands and sniffles softly
Immediately Hyunjin wrapped his arms around the older one and pulled him close.
“It’s okay.” Hyunjin said softly, almost too soft.
“It’s embarrassing..” Minho mumbled.
The younger man hummed, understanding the situation. He pulled Minho as close as possible and let the older rest his head against his chest.
They stay like that for a moment. Until Minho felt worse again. He was covered in cold sweat and panting. The dizziness is getting worse as the pain in his stomach is almost unbearable. It felt as if he’s about to pass out. His stomach is letting out a loud and harsh gurgle.
Minho started to shift uncomfortably. He knew it was bad, but he didn’t really know what was happening to him. That is, until a harsh round of bile rushed up his throat. He put one hand over his mouth and pushed Hyunjin aside. Leaning to the side as liquid splashed into the trashcan next to him. Minho wretched again, continuing to bring up round after round of bile.
Hyunjin rubbed the olders spine up and down, mumbling sweet nothings into his ear to comfort him. He pressed a soft kiss on the olders neck. Holding him up.
After a while the dancer only was left with dry heaves. His stomach is still feeling off.
“Shh, you’re working yourself up, Min.” Hyunjin said and carefully pulled the older up again.
Reluctantly Minho gave in and let himself pull against Hyunjins chest. He nuzzled his head in the soft fabric and inhaled the youngers sweet scent. For a while Minho ignored everything, only concentrating on the patterns that Hyunjin drew on his back and his soft breathing. After a while his stomach calmed down enough that he was able to relax for a bit.
“Was it the ride that got you so sick?” Hyunjin asked as he stroked his Hyungs hair.
Minho shook his head "No…felt off since the morning.."
Hyunjin sighed "You should have said anything." And I should have dragged you out of here.. Hyunjin thought the last part.
Minho hummed. He knew he had to but he couldn't. Even now he feels embarrassed to admit how he feels. "I want Channie Hyung.."
"I'll call him." is all Hyunjin said. He took a few steps back and called his Hyung explaining the situation but leaving the part that Minho was crying. Immediately Chan made his way to the sick boy.
Hyunjin looked sadly over to Minho. He felt guilty about what happened. He shouldn't have let Minho go on that ride. Hyunjin bit down on his lips, swallowing the guilt down and putting on a smile.
"Can I sit beside you..?"
Minho was a bit taken aback by that question but only nodded. He knew Hyunjin well. The younger one easily overthinks. He wanted to say something but is way too exhausted right now to find the right words. But he kept that in mind. He needs Hyunjin to know that he was more than grateful to have him here. They sat in silence for a while.
It didn't took until Chan arrived. Looking absolutely worried.
"Are you okay?" Chan asked.
"That ride messed with my stomach rather well but for now I'm okay.' Minho said. This time it was the truth. His stomach was still aching but the nausea was bearable. So he called it a win.
Chan furrowed his brows "Why did they make you go in one anyway? Especially a free-fall tower. And why did no one get him out there?" Chan looked around Hyunjin and the staff.
He started to get angry by now and it was obvious. Everyone knew that it took long for him to get angry but it always was a scary thing to watch.
"It's really irresponsible to make a person with acrophobia go on such rides especially if he's sick!"
While the staff tried to calm down the situation and talk to Chan, Hyunjin looked at the ground and fumbled with his hands. He really felt guilty now. Tears formed in his eyes but he knew better than to cry now. He isn't the one who needs comfort. If anything he thinks he needs scolding too. Hyunjin swallowed the tears and guilt down. Trying his best to sound confident.
"Hyung." He catched Chans attention
"Minho Hyung needs you right now." Hyunjin said as he pointed over to his sick Hyung.
Chan only nodded before he walked over to Minho he told the staff to get the cars ready and that they would stop filming for today.
The leader sat down beside Minho and rubbed over his knee.
"You think you can walk back to the car?"
Minho was unsure so he just shrugged "Can you help me..?" He mumbled.
The leader smiled softly "Of course."
It took rather long for them to walk to the cars. They had to stop here and there because Minho's stomach didn't like the walking at all. Sometimes he had to sit down and take deep breaths until the nausea went away. As they arrived and he finally sat down in the car he was more than glad. He even was handed some pills to help with the nausea. Gladly he took them.
Chan insisted that the two of them would share a car. He sat down beside Minho.
Minho leaned his head back and closed his eyes. One of his hands rested between his stomach and the seatbelt. He couldn't handle any pressure there right now. The nausea was barely there right now but his stomach was still aching. Not as bad as before but definitely bad enough to bother him.
"Try to sleep, I'll wake you as soon as we're home." Chan said as he ruffled through he youngers hair.
Minho leaned into the touch and hummed. He relaxed and tried to drift off to sleep. He wasn't in deep sleep just taking a nap but it was enough to help with his exhaustion.
A few hours later they arrived back at the dorm. Chan helped Minho back in and the first thing he went to was the bathroom to clean himself up. His shirt was soaked with sweat and all he wanted was to get out of those uncomfortable pants. So he changed into some sweatpants and a fresh shirt. With a look in the mirror he noticed that his stomach was visible sticking out with how bloated it was. Out of embarrassment he wrapped his arms around his stomach to hide it as he walked out of the bathroom.
Chan waited outside, ready to help Minho back to his room and in his bed. As Minho laid there he still has his arms wrapped around his stomach. Chan frowned at that action. He placed one hand on Minho's shoulder and gave it a soft squeeze.
"Does it hurt that bad? Do you want me to rub it? Or anything else I can do?" Chan asked
Minho smiled softly "You don't have to.. actually..can you get Hyunjin? I could use some cuddles.." he mumbled.
Chan was a bit surprised by that request but nodded "Of course. I'll get him."
-
It didn't take long for Hyunjin to arrive in Minho's room. He closed the door behind him so now it was only the two of them. The younger one fumbled with his shirt, looking through the room but not really at Minho. The older one knew what was going on. He patted his bed and looking at Hyunjin. Waiting for the younger to lay down with him. Instead Hyunjin sat only down at the bed which made Minho scoff in annoyance. He grabbed the younger ones arm and pulled him down.
"Stop thinking."
Hyunjin sighed. "I'm Sorry…for today. I shouldn't have let you go on that ride. I-"
Minho interrupted him "It's not your fault. I probably wouldn't have let you even if you did try to drag me away."
"Mhm maybe. I still should have tried." Hyunjin sighed.
"Stop that and do your thing. Cuddle your Hyung." Minho teased.
Hyunjin giggled and wanted nothing more than to do that. "Your hands are in the way."
Reluctantly Minho unwrapped his arms from his middle, revealing his bloated stomach. Hyunjin widened his eyes at that. He frowned and carefully placed his hand on the olders stomach. It was rather hard to the touch.
"It must hurt badly." Hyunjin said
Minho hummed "It hurts a lot, Jinnie.."
Hyunjin cooded in sympathy as started to rub Minho's stomach in clockwise circles. He didn't apply pressure, only enough to be noticed.
Immediately Minho relaxed under the touch and curled up around Hyunjins side. He closed his eyes and smiled.
"Please don't tell anyone.."
At first Hyunjin was a bit confused but he then understood. Minho cried today and he never does that in front of the members so it must be really embarrassing for him
"I won't. I promise." Hyunjin said as he placed a soft kiss on his Hyungs forehead.
Minho closed his eyes at that and tried to drift off to sleep. Hoping he would feel better in the morning.
