**warning. it's long. like veeery loong. As I did say its a twoshot but as I'm writing it became longer and longer and welp. Here you go.**

"Have you guys seen Yunho?" asked San when he stepped into the kitchen in the morning. Seonghwa and Yeosang tilt their head at the questions before Seonghwa says, "No? Isn't he in bed?" and Yeosang chirps in, "You guys are roommates so it should be you who are the first one to know though."

San huffed.

"Of course I would know if he is in the room right now but because I saw Jongho on Yunho's bed that's why I asked you guys."

Seonghwa and Yeosang shrug and seeing San roll his eyes and looking a bit stress, Seonghwa ask the younger, "Why are you searching for him though?"

San look over to them. He had woken up with a guilty feeling deep in his heart after he realized what they did to Yunho yesterday. San tilt his head.

"Don't you guys feel guilty or something? I need to find him and hope that he will forgive me so I can do today's schedules in peace."

Both Seonghwa and Yeosang frown in confusion for a few seconds recalling yesterday's incident before their eyes widen. San scoffs at this and crosses his arms on his chest.

"Now do you guys get why I want to find our adorable, kind, NEVER LYING ABOUT BEING SICK puppy now? I even mocked him yesterday OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE I DID THAT TO MY PUPPY! NOW WHERE IS HE SO I CAN APOLOGIZE AND HOPES HE'LL FORGIVE ME?!"

"Can you shut up please hyung? It's early and I don't want to hear any yelling as it might wake Yunho hyung up. He needs to rest." says Jongho rubbing his eyes with his fists before glaring at the trio in the kitchen.

Hearing this, San jumped at Jongho but careful with the injured ankle, rocking Jongho's shoulder, "WHERE IS HE? YOU KNOW WHERE DON'T YOU?"

"If you don't stop yelling I won't tell you where Yunho hyung is right now." says Jongho smugly.

That did the trick because San smack his lips with his hand and pleads with his eyes but before Jongho can tell him where Yunho is, they heard another yelling from the other side of the house,

"OH SHIT, YUNHO?! I'M SO SORRY ABOUT YESTERDAY AND MY FUCKING MOUTH AND TONGUE AND VOICE FOR SAYING THA-"

"Shut up! Now you're making Jongho not gonna tell me where Yunho is!" San whispers yell as he runs towards Wooyoung once he sees Wooyoung running while screaming in the hallway and puts his hand on Wooyoung's lips shutting him up.

Jongho smirk at all of them who are now ready to cry as they thought that the maknae will never tell them where Yunho is but being the lovable maknae he is, Jongho sighs out loud and shakes his head,

"Yunho hyung is in our room, me and Min- hey!"

San, Wooyoung, Seonghwa and Yeosang didn't even stay to hear the rest of the words from Jongho and dash to where Jongho's and Mingi's room are but was forced to stop as Mingi is in front of his room, arms crossed on his chest while staring down at their leader who seems to want to be one with the floor right now.

Jongho had to suppress his laugh seeing how flustered his hyungs are standing in front of a frowning and intimidating Mingi outside of their room.

"Pray tell me why are you guys yelling Yunho's name and making such a ruckus this morning?" asked Mingi, raising one of his eyebrows with his voice an octave lower that can shiver down your spine.

The others can only lower their head down and stare at the floor.

Mingi, who is still a bit angry towards them for not believing their puppy yesterday, won't let them in easily into his room where Yunho is still asleep on his bed.

"Well?"

"We.. We're here to apologize to him. Can we see him? Please?" stuttered Hongjoong.

"No."

They squawk at Mingi's blunt answer before Mingi once again shakes his head.

"No. Do you guys know that me and Jongho found Yunho in the kitchen last night writhing in pain on the floor? Oh and he also had to endure his fever, his migraine and his stomach ache for the whole day because you guys didn't BELIEVE him yesterday? So no. I'm punishing you guys right now. You guys won't be able to see him until the end of today schedules."

They widened their eyes and started talking at the same time but were shut by Mingi.

"I suggest you do what I say or you guys won't be able to see him tonight too if you guys keep behaving this way. What Yunho needs right now is rest and he can't do that if you guys overwhelm him when his fever is still high. Yes, his fever is still high so please don't disturb him right now. You guys can apologize to him tonight where he can rest for the day without anyone disturbing him."

San is about to cry as he really wants to see Yunho before going to their schedules today but what Mingi said is right so all of them sigh in defeat before making their ways to prepare for the schedules with their tail in between their legs.

Jongho had watched everything silently and shakes his head, sighing a little but he too thinks what Mingi said is right so make his way to Mingi and Mingi smiles at him letting him in into their shared room.

"Hyung's fever is still high?"

Mingi nodded his head, sighing and looked over to the bundle on his bed.

"He woke up again at 4 whimpering as his stomach hurt again and started to cry after half an hour because the pain was too much. I was afraid to give him another dose as it was barely in 2 hours so I called the manager and he asked if Yunho can stand and obviously he can't so manager hyung said that he will bring a doctor to take a look at him."

"Huh? Wait. So did you mean the doctor came this morning? I didn't hear anything."

Mingi chuckles.

"Yes the doctor came at 5 with manager hyung. They move slowly trying not to disturb you guys. Anyways, the doctor had looked over Yunho and I told him that he ate a painkiller at 2 am then he gave Yunho a shot for his fever and also for his stomachache. If Yunho still has a high fever tomorrow then he will have to go to the hospital."

Jongho nods at this information and he walks over to Mingi's bed and sighs softly, running his hand on Yunho's bangs and putting his palm on Yunho's forehead, frowning as he can still feel the unusual warmth radiating off of Yunho.

Mingi pats Jongho's back.

"Go get ready. I'll take care of him until you guys come back."

"Please let me know if anything happens." Jongho says and Mingi gives him a smile saying that he will.

--

Mingi looked over to Yunho from where he was seated on the floor playing his phone when he heard a whimper. He saw Yunho has a frown latched on his face and he seems to be thrashing out under the blanket and breathing heavily. Mingi sighs softly as this is normal when Yunho has a bad fever so he scoots over to his bed, fingers threading into Yunho's soft locks and he calls the sick boy softly.

"Yunho ah. Yun. Pup. Wake up. It's just a dream."

After a few shaking on the shoulder, Yunho startled awake. He then looked around with his eyes wide, labored breathing and only when he felt a poke on his left cheek did he realize that Mingi was there sitting next to the bed on the floor.

Before Mingi could say anything, Yunho had instantly latched himself towards Mingi, his head nuzzled close at Mingi's neck, his right arm going around Mingi's neck, shaking. Mingi caresses Yunho's head and nape, calming him down.

"Wanna tell me about your dream?"

Yunho shakes his head, his voice came out hoarse and shaky,

"N-no. I-It doesn't even make s-sense yet it scares me."

Mingi chuckles and he can feel Yunho is starting to pout at his neck.

"That's what you get when you have a bad fever."

Yunho huffed but he didn't move from his spot.

"You wanna know a secret? I like it when you're sick- OW"

Yunho punch Mingi's shoulder and pull himself a little so he can see Mingi's face while scowling.

"Well I don't like being this miserable okay?!"

Mingi then pulls Yunho's head and gives him a kiss on the forehead, chuckling.

"Can you let me finish first? I only like it because I can finally be the one that can care for you. Usually you're the one who did the job not just to me but to the other members as well so when you're sick and incapable of taking care of yourself, I jump at the chance to do so."

Yunho blushed and had his eyes lowered and a small smile.

Mingi smile at how cute Yunho is before smirking and says,

"And you're hella cute and very clingy when you're sick so that's a bonus too- OW! Stop punching me you twat! Behave like a sick person will yo- wait. Your punch actually hurts a bit." says Mingi and he quickly put his palm over Yunho's forehead and he let out a smile, "You're not that warm anymore! I think if you rest and eat well today your fever will be gone by tomorrow or maybe even tonight!"

Yunho huffed after punching Mingi but after Mingi said that his fever had lowered he too smiled and nodded before realizing that the dorms are somewhat very quiet. He tilted his head.

"What time is it?"

"About 1. Why?"

Yunho widened his eyes.

"1?! I slept that long?!"

"You could barely sleep last night, Yun. The doctor told me to let you sleep as long as you can get but not for the whole day so I did just that."

"B-but the members?"

Mingi huff.

"Schedules of course. Oh and I forbid them to come see you this morning so I think they've already learnt their lesson, seeing how everyone has their tails between their legs this morning walking out of the dorm."

Yunho widened his eyes again and a punch made its way onto Mingi's shoulder.

"What?! Why did you do that?!"

"For not believing you yesterday."

"Wha? Yest- B-but, Mingi!"

"What? Jongho told me everything last night. It's what they deserved."

"Everyone was exhausted Mingi ah. You knew that most of us won't be sane when our schedules are very packed."

"Don't care. That is totally not an excuse for them to be assholes. Jongho told me that they also ignored and glared at you most of the time yesterday and to top it all, YOU never let your exhaustion become your demon and lash out at people and everyone knows that yet they did that to you when you were the one that always helped the others."

"B-but"

"No but Yunho ah. You're too kind. Lemme punish them a little kay? Besides I only forbid them until they finish the schedules for today. I think you have to brace yourself when they come home later."

Yunho sighs and pouts.

"Fine."

Mingi grins as he knew he win this round and seeing that Yunho is awake now, it's probably a good idea to put some food into Yunho so he stand up and was about to go out of his room and into the kitchen to retrieve a chicken porridge that their manager had brought a few hours ago when there is a hand grabbing his shirt weakly near his waist preventing him from moving. Mingi turns around and looks down at Yunho who still has that pout on his lips and big puppy eyes staring up at him.

"Where are you going? Don't leave me here all alone."

MIngi chuckles before ruffling Yunho's hair.

"I'm going to go get your chicken porridge that manager hyung had brought. You really need to eat Yunho ah. Jongho told me you didn't eat that much yesterday and most of your food you gave it to him rather than eating it yourself."

Yunho grimaces at the thought of having food. His fever may have gone down but he is still not feeling well and he can feel the nausea coming so he really don't think having food is a good idea right now so he shakes his head at Mingi and whines,

"Nooooo. I don't want to eattt. I'm not hungryyy. Can't you just lie down here with me and let me cuddle you until my fever is gone? Pleaseee?"

MIngi hesitated.

Yunho had given him the full blown puppy eyes to Mingi and he only really did that when he really wanted something or vice versa.

Mingi is about to give in but he suddenly remembers that the doctor had actually told him to make sure that Yunho eats or his sickness will become worse so he closes his eyes and takes a deep breath.

"You need to eat. Doctor's order."

Yunho pouts, his lips wobble and with his puppy eyes is on full blast, he really looks like a kicked puppy right now and Mingi slapping himself mentally not to give in to Yunho.

After a few deep breath, Mingi look down to the still pouting puppy and with a soft and gentle voice, coaxing him,

"Baby, if you want to get better, which I know you really want to, then you have to eat. Okay?"

Yunho blush at the pet name and lower his eyes to the ground, still pouting and with a small voice, he says,

"I don't want to eat.. I can feel the nausea coming.. I don't want to be sick later on.."

"You don't have to finish it bub but please try to eat as much as you can. Alright?"

Yunho sighs and nods his head though he still didn't let go of his pout. Mingi had to control himself from cooing out loud so he ruffled Yunho's hair instead.

"Do you want to eat here or in the kitchen? or in the living room?"

"Can I eat in the living room? I kind of want to watch some varieties or something."

"Sure" Mingi said and he proceeded to Yunho and was about to put his hand under Yunho's knees so he could pick the sick boy up but was stopped by the sick boy himself. MIngi tilted his head as to why he was denied picking up the sick boy.

Yunho huffed a little , saying "I can walk by myself".

Mingi raised one of his eyebrows but didn't say anything, only nodded his head and stood upright beside the bed waiting for Yunho to sit and stand.

Yunho did his best to suppress the shaking in his legs as he put them on the floor and took a deep breath before he hauled himself up.

Only to yelp and if Mingi wasn't there to catch him, Yunho would be on the floor right now.

Mingi tsked.

"Now will you stop being stubborn and just let me help you?"

Yunho pouts but didn't stop Mingi again when he picked him up and led him to the couch in the living room. Mingi then went to the kitchen to warm up the chicken porridge and bring it to the living room and put the bowl and the spoon on the table in front of the couch.

He saw Yunho was shaking slightly so he told the older to wait a little bit and run to his own room and fetch his blanket.

Yunho had a confused face when Mingi told him to wait a bit but was truly thankful when he saw the blanket in Mingi's arm. He did feel cold but didn't want to bother Mingi but he guessed that he really can't lie or be subtle with him.

Mingi puts the blanket around Yunho's shoulder and Yunho smiles and says "Thanks" to Mingi making the younger grins before sitting down next to Yunho on the couch.

"I know you still have that big pride of yours but I'm not doing this to make fun of you. Okay?"

Yunho tilts his head at Mingi's words and when Mingi takes the spoon on the table and the bowl only then he understands the meaning of it.

Yunho sheepishly scratches at his neck now making Mingi tilt his head.

"I actually was about to ask for your help about this."

"Hm? So sudden? What happened to the stubborn Yunho back in the room?"

Yunho gives Mingi a light hearted glare before rolling his eyes a bit.

"I tried to pick up that pillow over there and well... I can't.. So.. Yeah.."

Mingi nods and gives Yunho a smile.

"It's fine Yunho ah. You will have your strength back in no time. Now ah~"

Yunho smiles and he lets himself be spoon fed by Mingi while they watch whatever it is on the TV.

Yunho manages to eat half of the porridge and Mingi thinks that it is a good start so he went to the kitchen to put away the leftover. When he came back to the living room, Yunho had lied down on his side on the couch and his eyes were already half closed before he saw Mingi and immediately made a grabby hand silently saying that he wanted to cuddle with him.

Mingi smiles before making his way to the couch and he lies down next to Yunho and Yunho is quick to put his head on Mingi's chest and wrap his arm around Mingi's waist. Mingi then pulls the blanket up to Yunho's shoulder and Yunho sighs contentedly.

It was not long for Yunho to visit the dreamland again.

--

Yunho is awoken by the sudden urge to throw up.

He has a hand on his mouth in seconds before he tries and fails to sit up as a wave of nausea swept over him. He rapidly slaps Mingi's chest with his free hand hoping for the younger to wake up so he can help him go to the bathroom. He really didn't want to mess up their living room.

Mingi jumped awake and sluggishly looked around before he met with a panicked Yunho who had his hand on his mouth and realizing what was happening, Mingi immediately got up from the couch and swiftly picked up Yunho and hurriedly walked to the bathroom.

Once they are in the bathroom, Mingi let Yunho down and after years of practice, Mingi quickly holds Yunho so he won't hurt himself as Yunho let himself drop onto the floor, hard.

Mingi runs his hand on Yunho's back and says sweet nothing to the sick boy to calm him down as he throws up in the toilet bowl, crying and whimpering occasionally with his arms pressing hard on his stomach.

After 15 agony minutes, Yunho finally stopped throwing his guts out. Mingi flush the toilet and gently haul him up and take Yunho to the sink so he can wash his mouth. Mingi looked at Yunho and he became worried as Yunho had become paler, so he put his palm on Yunho's forehead and frowned as it seems that Yunho's fever rose up again.

"Yunho ah, should we get you into the shower? Your fever has worsened again and the doctor did say that a shower can help lower your fever."

Yunho shivers at the thought of having a shower when he is already cold enough so he shakes his head.

"Come on, I think you need it Yunho ah. Just for a while. Hm?" coaxed Mingi.

Yunho whimpered.

"I d-don't think I can stand t-that long Mingi ah and it's cold.."

"I'll help you out. I'm worried Yun.. You never get this bad.."

Yunho really felt like crying again but he sucked it up as he knew what Mingi said was true so he took a deep breath and nodded at Mingi.

Mingi helps take off Yunho's clothes and he took off his clothes too as he didn't want them to get wet before slowly getting both of them in the shower. Mingi's left arm is wrapped around Yunho's waist to hold him up and his right arm getting the shower on and adjusting the temperature.

Yunho instinctively step back when the water hit his skin but Mingi stop him by tightening his hold on the older's waist making Yunho literally cries out as he felt too cold and start thrashing around though albeit weakly but Mingi held him in his place and whispering sweet nothing in Yunho's ears as the sickboy shivering and sobbing under the shower.

Yunho pleads Mingi to hurry up and Mingi did just that and it doesn't take too long for them to finish showering but by the end of it, Yunho can barely stands upright so Mingi told him to put his arms around his neck and Mingi haul Yunho up and grab at his thighs so Yunho won't fall down and walk out of the shower before putting Yunho down on the counter.

Mingi fetches their towels and he quickly dries himself and wears back his clothes before helping Yunho and engulfing him in the towel, haul him up and walk to Yunho and San's room. Yunho had lay his head on Mingi's shoulder, shivering the entire time.

Once in the room, Mingi put Yunho on his bed and he rummaged through Yunho's drawer and closet taking out a boxer, a long pants and a long sleeve shirt and proceeded to help Yunho wear them.

After Yunho wears his clothes, he is still shivering and feels very tired so he whines while grabbing and tugging Mingi's shirt weakly.

"Cuddle...."

Mingi chuckles at him but obeys anyway. He slides himself next to Yunho and before he can get himself comfortable, Yunho already has half of his body on top of Mingi, head snuggling close under Mingi's neck and an arm around Mingi's waist.

Mingi grab the blanket and bring it to Yunho's neck while saying,

"You did good Yunho ah. Try to sleep now. Are you warm enough?"

Yunho nodded his head, too tired to answer and snuggle closer to indicate that he's fine.

Mingi kisses on top of Yunho's head and Yunho hum contentedly before falling asleep within seconds.

--

"What? His fever has worsened?"

"Yeah.. It went down in the afternoon but after eating and sleeping for a few hours after, he woke me up cuz he had to throw up and when I checked his temperature it went up again. I helped him have a shower afterwards hoping for the fever to lower down but it's still the same when I felt him just now.."

"I think we should take him to the hospital hyungs.. I'm worried.. Yunho hyung usually never gets this bad.. The longest he had a fever before is only one and a half days and he is already jumping around at night.. What if it is not just a fever?"

Before Mingi and Hongjoong can agree with Jongho, they hear a loud thud that makes Mingi dash to Yunho's room and find Yunho, curled up in a ball on the floor crying.

"Oh puppy.."

Mingi says as he rushes to the crying boy and pulls him up on his lap and Yunho limply lays his head on Mingi's shoulder, still crying and shaking, arms around his stomach.

"H-hurts.." says Yunho weakly with his tears running down his cheeks.

"Alright, we're going to the hospital. Now." says Hongjoong once he sees how pale and in pain Yunho is before rushing out of the room to alert the manager.

Seonghwa comes in the room soon after, frown on his face, hella worried about their resident energizer and puppy.

"Do you need help with carrying him Mingi ah?"

Mingi shakes his head while Yunho suddenly wraps his arms around Mingi's neck burying his head as much as he can and whimpers.

Seonghwa's mouth open slightly at the obvious rejection though it was a misunderstanding and luckily Mingi knew thus he quickly look over to Seonghwa, explaining,

"He doesn't want anyone else as you guys still have schedules hyung. It's not that he doesn't want you to help him because he is angry at you or something like that. He doesn't want you guys to get sick. I still have two weeks off so he's fine with me."

"Oh, but I don't really mind Yunho ah."

Yunho shook his head and softly murmured.

"I d-do."

Seonghwa sighs fondly and goes up to Yunho caressing his hair making Yunho pull his head a little so he can face the older. Seonghwa can feel the guilt within him. If he doesn't lash out and let the exhaustion take over his sanity yesterday, Yunho can rest earlier and maybe get better by now.

Yunho saw how Seonghwa's face change and he knew what the other are thinking so he softly say to the older as best as he can in his feverish state,

"It's n-not your fault hyung. It's no one's fault."

Seonghwa sighs, "I'm so sorry bub.."

Yunho gave him a little smile saying "It's fine h-hyung. I'm not mad."

Seongwa sighs again still feeling guilty but they really need to get Yunho to the hospital now as he sees how Yunho's breath is becoming heavier and he looks so weak lying limply in Mingi's arms.

"Mingi! Manager is here, let's go." shouted Hongjoong somewhere in the living room.

Mingi puts his arms around Yunho's waist hauling him up a bit while he stands up and he pulls Yunho's legs so it wraps around his waist and holds him like that and walks out of the room with Seonghwa tailing behind them.

"Alright. Mingi obviously has to come as Yunho won't let go of him. Hm.. I don't think it's necessary for everyone to go so.. Leader, let's go" says the manager and a lot of whines are heard afterwards making the manager sigh and pinch his bridge.

They only stop when Mingi looks panicked and tries his best to look at Yunho when he is holding him, making it a bit awkward and hard to look down to the sick boy in his arms.

Yunho had trembled viciously that everyone could see it and he was openly crying right now, with one arm around Mingi's neck and another one wrapped around his own stomach, his face buried close at MIngi's neck.

"P-please.. H-hurts... I c-can't... P-please.."

"No time to argue boys. You guys wait at home. We need to hurry. Come on." says the manager.

MIngi and Hongjoong nods and they quickly follow their manager to the van outside of their apartments. Once they are seated in the van, the manager quickly drives to the nearest hospital.

Mingi is currently trying to calm Yunho down as best as he could, running down his hand on Yunho's back. Mingi tries to massage Yunho's stomach in hope that the pain will lessen but Yunho won't turn around and let him do that, he keeps snuggling close to Mingi chest to chest that it is impossible for Mingi to massage Yunho's stomach.

Hongjoong worriedly looked at Yunho from his seat beside their manager, he never saw Yunho crying openly because he is in pain and he felt the guilt creeping in him getting bigger.

"Hold on Yunho ah." says Hongjoong and Mingi kiss Yunho's head several times to calm the sick boy and himself.

--

"You guys go to the ER first, I'll meet you there after I park the van, go." says the manager and Hongjoong quickly gets out of the van and helps Mingi and Yunho before they rush to the ER.

Yunho is half conscious by now as the pain seems to intensify by the minutes and his body no longer can hold it.

"Excuse me! We need a doctor right now!" Hongjoong yell in the ER and a nurse run towards them and take a look at Yunho's pale face and trembling body, he ushered them to the nearest bed and told Mingi to lay Yunho down on the bed.

A doctor rushes to them a few seconds later and he asks what's wrong while he poked and prodded at the sick boy on the bed.

"Uh, he has had a fever since yesterday morning, his stomach seems to hurt a lot. I gave him a painkiller yesterday night and he was fine for a few hours before his fever and the stomachache worsened but our manager had called a doctor and he gave Yunho a shot for the fever and stomachache. He was fine until this evening and now it has worsened again."

The doctor nodded at Mingi's explanation and after a few more prodded towards Yunho, the doctor told the nurses to go prepare the x-ray and set up an IV for Yunho.

"We will have to see what's wrong with his stomach first and only then we can determine what is the cause for the stomachache and his high fever but I suspect that he had contracted the ongoing viral fever. We will let you guys know later so for now you guys can go ahead and wait in the waiting room."

Mingi is reluctant to leave Yunho alone but with Hongjoong coaxing him saying that it will be faster for the doctor and the nurses to do their job without them interfering, both of them slowly walk out of the ER and into the waiting room.

--

"Family of Jeong Yunho?"

Mingi and Hongjoong perks up from their seats in the waiting room and quickly walk to the doctor.

The doctor is wearing a small smile seeing them walk run towards him and bow a little,

"How is he, doctor?"

"Jeong Yunho-ssi is stable right now. He's not in pain anymore. As what I suspected earlier, he does contracted the viral fever-"

"But why was he in so much pain though? As far as I know the viral fever doesn't really do that? Unless... a complication..?"says Hongjoong and Mingi nodded his head agreeing.

"You are right, viral fever doesn't get bad unless there are complications, we had an X-ray and endoscopy on Yunho-ssi and found out that he had a mild case of gastritis. The cause of it varies but seeing that you guys are idols, stress is the most common cause. It may have been there for weeks but he didn't realize it and it worsened after he had the fever. We already gave him the antibiotics for it and he will be fine soon."

"Does he have to be warded?"

"No, it won't be necessary. He can get better by resting comfortably at home but I suggest no strenuous activity for at least 3 more days."

They nodded at the doctor and the doctor said that they can go in the room and bring Yunho back home.

"Hey pup."

Yunho weakly look over to the voice and give Hongjoong a small smile. They approach Yunho and Yunho tried to sit up but fell down almost instantly.

"He's very weak right now, will probably be weak for a while so he needs someone to take care of him most of the time. Make sure that he eats and has a lot of fluids."

They nodded and Yunho huffed and pouted, hearing that he will need someone's help for a while.

Mingi went to Yunho and ruffled his hair.

"Why are you pouting? I'm here aren't I?" Mingi says smirking and Yunho half heartedly glare at him and making the others chuckles.

"You may go now but if he worsen after 3 days then you need to come back."

They nodded and Mingi moved closer to Yunho and Yunho absentmindedly wrapped his arms around Mingi's neck and let Mingi pick him up and they all walked out of the ER and headed home.

--

*Click*

"YUNHO?! AR-"

"SHUSH!"

"He's sleeping. No shouting and yelling please." whispered Mingi who is currently holding a sleeping Yunho in his arms.

Wooyoung sheepishly says sorry and Hongjoong rolls his eyes fondly but forgives him anyway.

"How is it? Is it bad?" asked Yeosang.

"The stomachache was because of gastritis and it became bad when the fever set in and yeah.. but he'll be fine from now on but no strenuous activity for 3 days and he might be a little weak for a while." Hongjoong says and they all nodded somberly.

"This won't happen if we believe him at once and told him to stay and rest at home.." pouts San and everyone nodded their head, guilt face stricken.

"What's done is done, hyungs. Yunho hyung was stubborn too that day, I asked him if he really is sick and was ready to tell the manager if he did but he told me that he'll be alright everytime I asked him that day so really, no one is at fault. We are just a bunch of stubborn brats that's all." says Jongho and he earned a little slap across his head from Hongjoong but they can't really argue about that.

"If it makes you guys feel better, Yunho punched me when I told him that I forbid you guys to see him this morning. says Mingi softly as he didn't want to wake Yunho up with his deep voice.

"Wha-? Really?" says Seongwha and Mingi nodded his head,

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Yunho later. He defends you guys saying that everyone was exhausted and all."

"We really don't deserve him do we?" says San softly and everyone nods again.

The manager then pat Hongjoong and Yeosang's shoulder as they were standing the closest to him,

"Alright, enough with the guilt. Yunho needs to rest and so do you guys. Lots of you still have schedules tomorrow and it's late."

"Awwww but I want to take care of hiiim..." whine San and the manager sighs.

"I can't cancel everyone's schedules for tomorrow so I'm sorry but you guys have to do it tomorrow. But. I already cancel everyone's schedule for the day after tomorrow so if you guys want to take care of Yunho then you guys can do so that day."

Everyone cheered silently minding that their puppy is still sleeping in Mingi's arms.

"I'll go tuck this puppy. San? Do you mind bunking with Wooyoung today?"

"Kay."

Mingi smiles at San before he walks to San and Yunho's room and lays Yunho down on his bed.

Mingi was about to go to the kitchen to prepare a bottle of water for Yunho if he needed it in the middle of the night but he stopped as he felt his shirt was being tugged.

Looking down at the bed, Yunho had his eyes open a little bit and with a sleepy voice, he ask,

"Where are you going...?"

Mingi shakes his head at Yunho's antics. He didn't wake up once when they were in the living room and talking but once Mingi puts him down, he wakes up instantly.

"I'm just going to the kitchen for a bit. I'll be back."

Yunho pouts as he tugs Mingi's shirt a little harder,

"Don't go... I'm cold..."

Mingi bends down and kisses Yunho's forehead ushering that he is just going to fetch a bottle of water and he'll be back soon making Yunho whines and his pouts more prominent but he let go of Mingi's shirt telling him to hurry up and Mingi did just that.

While Mingi was in the kitchen, someone had come into Yunho's room. Well, three.

"Hey pup." whisper San crouching down to Yunho's level beside his bed.

Yunho opened his eyes as much as he could and he found three pairs of concerned eyes staring at him.

"Hey.." Yunho says weakly making San run his fingers at Yunho's hair. Yunho closes his eyes contentedly.

"You guys shouldn't be here... You'll catch my fever.."

"Don't care. I won't move until you forgive me Yunho ah." says Wooyoung while he sits on the bed near Yunho's waist pouting.

Yunho opens his eyes and tilts his head. The medicine did numb all of his pain but it is making his mind sluggish.

"Hm..?"

Yeosang sighs, already expecting that kind of reaction from the very kind Yunho and he says,

"We're here to apologize for being an ass yesterday."

Wooyoung and San nodded their heads in sync.

"No."

They widen their eyes at Yunho's answer and jump when they hear a chuckle from their back and turn around seeing Mingi standing with one of his shoulders leaning against the wall crossing his arms while holding a bottle of water.

Wooyoung and San are close to crying right now and Mingi walks over to them.

"What Yunho meant was, 'no, there is nothing to apologize to as you guys are not at fault'. Am I right pup?"

Yunho nodded his head while his hand waved at Mingi as in to say 'what he says' before it went limp on his chest, closing his eyes.

"He's tired. And cranky. And needs a cuddle from me. And will kick you guys' ass if you guys stay here any longer. If you guys want a full coherence sentence from him, you guys have to wait until his fever broke."

They sag in relief and they plant a kiss on Yunho's forehead and cheeks before running out of the room thinking that Yunho will get up and kick their ass because they kissed him when he's having a fever.

Mingi shakes his head while Yunho huffs.

"I'll kick their ass if they catch my fever."

"No doubt but right now what you need is a cuddle. So pardon me while I scoot you over a bit." says Mingi as he pushes Yunho a bit further in and he slides in next to Yunho.

They cuddle for the night and Mingi hopes that Yunho will be getting better soon.

The next day, Yunho is resting well, and by the time the other members are back, Yunho is engulfed with hugs and kisses for the entire night until the next day.

Yunho didn't have the heart to push them out, afraid they would become sick too as he can see how his members still feel guilty so he just let them shower him with care.

By the third day, Yunho is back on his feet as his fever broke at night on the second day and he can't wait to start working again.
