Jeonghan POV

"Let me braid your hair.", Minghao said.

"First of all, good morning.", I responded.

"Good morning. Now let me braid it."

"Why?"

"Because if you're going with Mingyu, Cheol, and Hoshi today, you're going to need to keep your hair up."

He stood behind me and started looking through my hair.

"Where exactly am I going?", I asked.

"They're going to the gym this morning, and it's your turn to tag along."

"Oh yeah...I forgot about that."

He dug through my shelves for my hair items. Eventually he found a brush, comb, and hair ties.

"Maybe I'll just to a stylish bun."

"Whatever you think is best Minghao."

"Before you go with them, you need to eat breakfast."

"I don't feel like it."

He stopped messing with my hair, and came in front of me.

"Again? Jeonghan it has been a while since you ate something. Aren't you hungry?"

"Honestly, no."

"Well you need to eat before working out with them."

He came back to my hair, continuing to brush it.

"I just don't feel hungry."

"Do you know why? Has this happened before?"

I thought for a second.

This has happened before, but it's been a long time. Hopefully it wasn't for the same reason.

"A long time ago. But, I don't think its for the same reason now."

"And what was that reason?"

"I dealt with an upper respiratory infection. I couldn't do anything while I was sick."

"And that's not what's happening now, right?"

"No. I'm just tired. I have no energy whatsoever."

"And where do you think energy comes from?"

"Food?"

"Food. So eat. Unless you want me to tell Cheol that you haven't eating since Monday morning."

"He would lock me in the pantry."

"Exactly."

When he was finished putting my hair in a bun, I put on some loose fitting clothes.

He stayed in the room with me, just observing.

"It's concerning.", he said.

"What is?"

"You. Not eating. Being so tired."

Looking at Minghao, I noticed his tear-filled eyes.

"Hey, I am alright. Don't cry."

"You're not okay. I can tell...", he said, covering his eyes.

I hugged him, sitting close by on my bed.

Suddenly the bedroom door opened, and Mingyu came in.

"What did I miss? Why is Minghao crying?", he asked.

"He's worried about me. But I am fine."

"No he's not. He's lying.", Minghao said.

"Jeonghan, what's going on?"

I stood up.

"Nothing. I am fine! Don't be so upset over nothing."

Mingyu and Minghao made eye contact.

"Alright.", they both said.

I walked from the room.

Some of the members were going about in the hallway. Some were in practice clothes, others casual.

Hoshi and Seungcheol were coming up the steps.

"We were coming to retrieve you.", Hoshi said.

"Ready to go?", Cheol asked.

"Yep.", I replied.

Mingyu came from the room.

He looked at me.

"Ready to go Mingyu?", Hoshi asked.

"Yes. I'm ready."

"Good. Do you guys have your water bottles?"

We both nodded yes.

"Well let's go.", Cheol said.

Together we followed them all the way back downstairs, and to the front door.

Dino was playing rock, paper, scissors with Woozi for the rights to the TV remote.

"Oh, you guys are leaving?", Dino asked.

"Yep. Gotta get this workout in early!", Hoshi said.

"Did you get Jeonghan to eat finally?", Woozi asked.

My soul visibly left my body.

"What do you mean?", Cheol asked.

"He hasn't eaten anything since Monday morning."

Everyone looked at me.

Hoshi, Mingyu, and Cheol got closer to me.

"Jeonghan.", Hoshi said.

"Yes..."

"It's Thursday."

"I know."

"You're not going anywhere.", Cheol said, "I'm making you food."

He took my hand and led me to the kitchen.

Some of the other members gathered around as well.

"Want some chips while he cooks?", Hoshi asked.

"Guys I'm really not hungry. I honestly can't eat."

"Why not?", Junhui asked, coming in.

"I don't know."

Everyone started talking about what they thought was wrong.

I was looking around the room, and my eyes focused on the ceiling. It seemed like it was moving.

"That's weird...", I said.

"What is?", Cheol asked.

"Moving."

I pointed at the ceiling.

I couldn't tell but the members were all looking at me.

I felt a pair of hands holding my waist.

"Jeonghan, let's sit down okay.", Hoshi said.

He sat me down in one of the dining room chairs.

"Here, drink some water.", someone said.

At this point, things seemed to be getting darker.

I saw what looked like a cup being placed in front of me. I reached out for it, but didn't feel anything.

"Where is it?", I asked.

"Right in front of you Jeonghan.", Hoshi said.

He picked up the glass and handed it to me.

"Thank you.", I said, taking a sip.

After a moment of silence. I felt someone sitting down across the table.

"Jeonghan, can you see me?", they asked.

I looked around, I could barely see anything.

"No. Where are you?", I asked nervously.

They touched my hands.

"Right here. Guys I think we need to take him to the hospital.", they said.

I heard movement all around me.

The sound was almost drowned out. It felt like I was losing my senses one by one.

I just sat still, confused as to what was happening to me.

I heard a voice, but it was so distant that I couldn't understand it.

I pair of hands were on my shoulders, helping me stand.

"Who is that? Where are we going?", I asked.

I couldn't hear their response.

We were walking for a bit, and I felt the heat of the outside on me.

I was sat down in the backseat of a car. Feeling the seats, I knew it was Seungcheol's car. It comforted me a bit, and I relaxed into the seat.

There was a hand on my face, patting it.

"Huh?"

Once again the voice sounded far away.

I felt really tired, so to avoid stressing myself out anymore, I closed my eyes, and everything went silent.

When I opened my eyes again, I was able to see clearly.

I could hear the beeping of a monitor, and I knew I was in the hospital.

Turning my head to the side, I saw Cheol sitting on the couch in the room. No one else was there.

He saw me, and stood up, quickly coming over to me.

"You're awake. You had us scared for a minute."

"What happened to me?"

"Doctor said you had some type of neurological issue. She said it had to have come from your body reacting to an internal issue and trying to fix it."

"Oh."

"But you'll be okay. Your brain was just sending all of the wrong signals to your body."

"Cool. I mean...terrible. Anyways, where is everyone?"

"They went to go get things to spoil you. You know Minghao could not stop crying."

"Poor guy. I'll have to hug him lots when I get out of here."

"You will. Now please explain to me why you waited several days to have this issue come up."

"About that-"

"Hoshi isn't here right now, I can fight you."

"You would fight a sick person?"

"If it was my member who didn't tell me something was wrong and had me thinking he died in the backseat of my car for three minutes, then yes."

"Oops."

"Just wait until you get out of this hospital."
