49. coming home (this is really short buuuuuut i think its gr8)
Jonghyun was rubbing Roo’s belly softly, with his eyes closed while humming to himself, when his phone rang. He had half a mind to ignore it, because it was only seven in the morning on a Sunday, and anyone that called this early on a Sunday surely had a death wish. He popped one eye open. What if someone needs help? What if it’s an emergency?
With the risk of it being an emergency far outweighing him answering an annoying friend, Jonghyun rolled out of bed and reached for his phone. He ignored Roo’s whines as he looked at the number.
He paced back and forth in the small room, answering quickly. He couldn’t even get out a hello before Taemin’s sweet voice filled his ears. “Hyung, I’m coming home.”
“Yes! All three of them approved. I’m doing better, Hyung. Much better. I can be home this Friday after a meeting with Dr. Yoo for a new prescription.”
“Oh my god, Taemin, this is amazing! I knew you could make it through, babe.”
“I know. I only have a few minutes left, but you can visit on Thursday. You remember the visiting hours?”
“Good. I’ll see you soon, Hyung. I’ll be coming home soon.” Taemin sniffled, and went on about how well he’s been doing in rehab, and how his therapists smiled at him as they told him the news. Jonghyun could only hold his breath, listening to the excited ramblings of his boyfriend.
Several tears ran down his cheeks, but it was okay, because his baby was coming home.
