Taehyung awoke the next morning before Jungkook. He rubbed his eyes trying to rid the sleep and sat up slowly, trying not to disturb the younger who was still fast asleep.

Taehyung leaned down and kissed the younger's forehead softly. He noticed Jungkook's forehead felt warmer than usual, but just figured it was from being encased in several blankets.

The elder male removed himself from the blankets, and walked himself to the bathroom to take a shower. He figured he would let Jungkook sleep as long as he wanted.

Almost an hour later, Taehyung walked out of the bathroom with only a towel on to see that Jungkook was still asleep. He walked over to the younger and gripped his towel tighter as he leaned down slightly and kissed Jungkook's head again and ran his fingers through the younger's hair.

Jungkook's eyes fluttered open slowly as he woke up. He smiled softly when he saw Taehyung smiling back at him.

"Morning my baby bun" Tae giggled. "I was just checking up on you. I haven't seen you sleep so much, and I was getting worried" Taehyung smiled. "You can go back to sleep if you want, I just wanted to make sure you were okay."

"Thanks, TaeTae. I love you" Jungkook smiled sleepily and yawned. He sat up slowly and squeezed his eyes together tightly, feeling a small pain wrack his brain. He shook it off slightly and looked back at Tae.

"If you're up for it, I was thinking we could go to a tea shop today. I saw one on our way to the shipping yard yesterday, and I thought it would be nice to check out" Tae stated and walked to Jungkook's closet.

"Whatever you wanna do, Baby Doll" Jungkook said with a smile.

Taehyung just smiled and picked out some clothing for the day and changed into them. Jungkook got out of bed and changed into some clothing to get ready to leave for their little morning date.

When they arrived at the tea shop, Taehyung ordered the drinks while Jungkook picked out a table.

Five minutes later their drinks were ready, and the two were sitting and drinking their tea together.

"I'm having war flashbacks to two days ago" Taehyung chuckled softly. Jungkook just hummed softly, not giving a reaction. "Kookie, are you feeling alright? You seem pretty out of it right now" Tae stated.

"Hm? I have a bit of a headache at the moment. It should go away soon though" Jungkook reassured.

"Are you sure? We can go back home if you want. I don't want you to force yourself to stay out with me" Tae pouted.

"I'm positive, my love. What kind of boyfriend would I be to end a date just because I wasn't feeling well" Jungkook said softly and sipped on his hot tea.

"But a relationship is about making sure the two are able to be comfortable enough to know when they need help. And I'm very okay if we need to leave and go back home so you can rest" Taehyung stated.

"You can finish your tea first and then we can go, how about that?" Jungkook asked.

"I guess" Taehyung pouted. "But you need to let me know if you start feeling worse."

"I will, I promise" Jungkook smiled softly and leaned over to Taehyung. He kissed the elders forehead and picked up one of Tae's hands.

They held hands as they sipped on their hot drinks. They didn't say much, but just enjoyed the company of the other.

When Tae was done with his tea, the two males left and drove back to Jungkook's house.

Taehyung could tell Jungkook wasn't feeling very well just by the way the younger walked. He seemed tired and run down even though he'd only woken up less than two hours before.

When they entered the house, Taehyung started walking towards the livingroom when he heard heavy footsteps and a door slam shut. The elder rushed to where the door slammed, and knocked on the door softly. He pressed his ear to the door and could hear the squelching sounds of the younger vomiting.

"Kooks, can I come in? I wanna help you" Tae asked softly. The door opened almost immediately. Jungkook had toilet paper at his mouth as he wiped away the drool on his mouth. At this point, Jungkook looked horrible. His eyes were glossy and his skin color looked drained.

"Wanna go back to bed?" Taehyung asked. Jungkook nodded and grabbed Tae's hand. The elder guided Jungkook to his room slowly, making sure he wasn't going to collapse.

When they made it to his room, Taehyung helped Jungkook take off his jeans and shirt, and helped him put on sweatpants and a larger T-shirt.

Taehyung helped Jungkook get into bed, and he covered the younger's body with a pile of blankets, making sure he was warm enough. Jungkook cuddled into the covers, and curled up into a ball. He snuggled his head into the pillows and let out a sigh.

"All good, Baby?" Taehyung asked softly. Jungkook only hummed softly. "I'm just gonna sit here with you until you fall asleep, ok?" Jungkook just grunted, not even bothering to speak. Taehyung sat down on the mattress next to Jungkook and rubbed his back softly until he fell asleep.

10 minutes later Jungkook was fast asleep again. Tae stood up slowly and kissed Jungkook's forehead before walking out of the room and going to the living room to let Jungkook rest properly.

Taehyung sat on the sofa and immediately went to text his friends, asking for help.

*texting convo*
The Fam🤪

Taehyung:

*real life*

Taehyung set his phone down and sighed loudly, rubbing his face with his hands. He forced himself off of the sofa to go look around in the cabinets for any types of soup. Sadly, he hadn't found any that he thought would have been good for Jungkook being sick.

"Goddamn it" he cursed to himself. Then it came to him that he needed to go to the store to get soup for his sick boyfriend.

Tae quickly found a piece of paper and wrote a small note on it. He went to Jungkook's room and picked his small stuffed bear he picked up at the dorms the day before, and taped the note to it. When they decided to stay at Jungkook's house, Tae made it clear that he needed clothing for himself, so they stopped to get a couple things.

He walked to Jungkook's room, trying to be as quiet as much as he could to make sure he didn't wake the younger. Taehyung set the Bear down on the beside table facing the bed, before leaving the room.

Taehyung gathered his keys and phone, deciding to leave and go to the store as quickly as possible. He left the house and drove to the nearest corner store.

Jungkook on the other hand heard Taehyung's car engine start. His head was pounding but when he looked up, he noticed the Bear next to him. He picked it up and read the note.

'Jungkookie,

I went to the store really quickly to get some soup that I can make you when you wake up.

If you need anything at all, call me and I'll come home immediately.

It shouldn't take long, but I didn't want you to worry that I wasn't home.

Now, go back to sleep and rest up

I love youuuuu

~TaeTae <3'

Jungkook smiled softly at the small note Tae left him. He removed the note and put it onto the bedside table. He put the Bear into his arms and snuggled into it, breathing in Taehyung's calming scent.

...

Four hours later and Jungkook was still sleeping. Taehyung had only took 20 minutes at the store, but hadn't checked up on Jungkook, not wanting to disturb the younger's rest.

It was around 3 in the afternoon, and Tae decided that he should go in and check on the younger, just to make sure he's sleeping without any problems.

When he opened the door, Jungkook was in the same spot from hours ago. The younger was still sound asleep. Taehyung smiled when he saw that Jungkook was cuddling with his stuffed bear. The elder then left and closed the door softly, going back towards the living room.

...

Another hour later, Taehyung was sitting on the sofa, looking through his phone. He could hear Jungkook's door open and the footsteps coming down the hallway. When Taehyung looked up his heart almost melted. Jungkook was standing with sleepy eyes, messy hair, a huge blanket draped over his shoulder, and one of his hands held Taehyung's teddy bear.

Jungkook miserably waddled over to the sofa where Tae was sitting and softly plopped down next to him. Tae turned sideways and put one of his legs behind Jungkook's back. The younger pushed himself closer, and leaned his entire upper body onto Tae with his head at the elders shoulder.

"How are you feeling, love?" Taehyung asked softly and rubbed Jungkook's back.

"Icky" Jungkook pouted and pulled his legs towards his chest making himself into a ball.

"You're so cute" Tae giggled and kissed Jungkook's forehead. Jungkook didn't say anything, but sat up, making himself sit farther from Taehyung. "What's wrong?" Tae questioned.

"I don't want you to get sick too. This sucks and I want you to stay healthy" Jungkook pouted.

"If you think I'm not going to let you snuggle me because you're sick, you're dead wrong mister" Tae scolded. "Now come back over here."

Jungkook barely even reacted, only laying back down on top of Taehyung. The younger let out a small huff and suck out his lower lip.

"Do you want me to make you some soup? Or is your stomach not ready to eat anything yet?" Tae asked softly and rose his hand up to Jungkook's head and played with his hair.

"I don't think I can eat anything" Jungkook sighed.

"That's okay, Bun Bun. How about we put on a movie?" Taehyung suggested.

"Disney please" Jungkook yawned.

"One Disney movie coming right up" Taehyung said happily and picked The Princess and The Frog.

The two cuddled on the sofa for the entire movie. Jungkook was slowly starting to feel better during the movie. By the time the movie was over Jungkook almost felt as if he hadn't been sick at all. Almost as if Tae's cuddles cured him.

"Kookie how are you feeling?" Taehyung asked as the movie ended.

"A lot better. I don't feel gross anymore" Jungkook chuckled.

"Want me to make you soup now?" The elder offered.

"That would be great, I haven't eaten anything all day" Jungkook answered and sat up slowly, letting Taehyung off of the sofa.

Taehyung went to the kitchen, and came back 5 minutes later with a bowl of chicken noodle soup.

"I hope this hits the spot for you, I didn't know what else to make" Taehyung giggled slightly as he handed the bowl to the younger.

"It couldn't be any better, thank you TaeTae" Jungkook thanked softly before getting a spoonful of noodles and blowing on them, cooling the food down slightly.

Taehyung was about to sit down again, but his phone started ringing from the little coffee table. Jungkook just gave him a look to say he was alright for the time being, and that Taehyung could answer the phone. A bright smiled was brought into his lips when he saw his mother was calling him. He picked up the phone and walked towards the kitchen.

"Hi mama!" He greeted.

"Hiya Taebear, how are you?" His mother asked.

"I'm doing pretty well, but Jungkook on the other hand is kinda sick. He's been sleeping all day, and he said he's finally starting to feel better so I made him some soup" Tae stated.

"Oh that's awful, I hope Jungkook feels better soon" she stated. "But I wanted to ask if you were coming home tonight, but that seems like a no considering Jungkook was sick all day" she chuckled.

"If he feels better, I'm sure I can convince him to come earlier in the day tomorrow" Taehyung stated.

"I'm fine for now. I just wanted to check in. But I'll let you go now so you can tend to your boyfriend" she said happily.

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow. Bye mama."

"Bye Taebear" She said before ending the call.

Taehyung walked back to the living room to see that Jungkook had finished the bowl of soup and was sprawled across the sofa, cuddling Tae's teddy bear.

"How are you done already?" Taehyung questioned.

"I was hungry" Jungkook shrugged.

"Looks like you feel fine and you're back to your regular self" Taehyung chuckled and walked to the sofa.

"All thanks to you for taking care of me like a baby" Jungkook smiled brightly.

"Well you're my baby, so of course I'm going to take care of you" Taehyung stated as he sat down at Jungkook's legs.

"Well I'm greatful for it" Jungkook stated. "But maybe another movie? I wanna cuddle you as much as possible for the night."

"Sounds great to me" Taehyung agreed and laid down on Jungkook. The elder pulled a blanket over top of them and both snuggled into each other.

"It's better when you're here with me rather the bear" Jungkook chuckled and set the stuffed bear on the ground lightly.

"I hope so" Tae giggled.

Jungkook leaned down and kissed a Taehyung's head before scrolling around and trying to find a movie.

The entire night they laid together on the sofa before eventually going to Jungkook's room to spend the night in each other's arms in a larger space. They both wanted to enjoy sharing a bed together alone before going back to Tae's for Christmas.
