Minki layed down on his couch as he stared at the wall. He never left his spot from when he and Seungcheol returned from the hospital, that was Saturday morning.


And today is now Sunday. Minki knew that wasn't good for him. He hadn't eaten or drunken any water at all since then. That certainly wasn't good.


"Dammit." Minki cursed himself as he slowly climbed off the couch and reached for his phone. That's when the dizziness hit him and he collapsed to the floor.


He stayed their for about 5 minutes as he tried to gain his strength back, or enough to pull him off the floor. He reached for his phone with shakey hands as he dials Joshua's numbers.


"Hi baby, what's up?" Joshua's voice said from the other side of the phone. "Hey, do you wanna come over and watch a movie?" Minki asks as he pulls himself into a sitting position, resting his back against the edge of the couch.


"Sure! Want me to come over now?" Joshua asks. "Yeah sure." Minki said pressing the edge of his hand to his temple to try and subside the pain pounding in his head.


"Okay, I'll see you soon. Bye Minki!" Joshua said ending the call. "Bye." Minki whispered to no one because Joshua already ended the call.


It didn't take long for Joshua to arrive because it was only a 20 minute drive from his house. "Minki?" Joshua called knocking on the door.


"It's open!" Minki called out, knowing that his legs would probably give out if he tried to get up right now.


"Hey- are you okay?" Joshua asked immediately drooping his bag and sitting down next to Minki.


"Yeah- I'm good." Minki said as Joshua ran his hand through the olders hair causing Minki to lean into the touch. "I'm just tired." He whispered.


'Liar you just slept for like 24 hours' Minki thinks to himself.


"Well do you wanna cuddle and take a nap?" Joshua suggests but Minki just shakes his head. The last thing he wants is to sleep more.


"No no no. We are here to watch a movie." Minki said pushing himself off the floor, trying to hide the pain in his stomach from lack of food.


"Are you sure your okay?" Joshua asks wrapping an arm around his boyfriend's waist for extra support.


"Yeah don't worry Shua." Minki said leaning in and placing a kiss on Joshua's lips. "I'm okay." He tried to reassure Joshua.


"Okay. But that's not gonna stop me from babying you." Joshua smirked as he picked up Minki bridal style.


"Ugh fine." Minki said resting his head against Joshua's chest, allowing his boyfriend to carry him.


They picked the movie Jingle Jangle, halfway through Minki could feel his vision fading in and out and he could barely stay focus on the screen infront of him.


"I'm gonna go get a drink. Do you want anything?" Minki asked and Joshua shook his head before stopping Minki from getting up.


"Don't worry I can get it." Joshua said before Minki pulled up from his grip. "Babe don't worry, I'm okay. Just thirsty. I'll be right back." Minki reassured him.


Right as he was out of ear and sight from Joshua, he exhaled deeply as he leaned against the wall trying to catch his breath.


"It's okay, it's fine." He whispered to himself as he grabbed a glass and poured himself a cup of water.


It was at that exact moment Minki felt his head go blank as his ears started ringing.


"Joshua-" Was the last thing Minki remembers saying before his legs gave out and he crashed to the floor unconscious.

Joshua shot off the couch at the sound of his name being called followed by a thud and the sound of glass breaking. "Minki?!" Joshua asked running to the kitchen.


"Holy- Babe!" Joshua gasps as he carefully steps over the broken glass and picks up the unconscious male.


"Minki?" Joshua asked worriedly as he checked the older for any injuries, sighing in relief seeing that he was okay


Minki woke up nearly 30 minutes later on his bed, with a huge headache. He had no real energy to move so he just stared up at the ceiling. He saw Joshua looking at him worriedly.


"Hey- bloody hell." Minki cried out as he tired to turn to face Joshua only for pain to shoot through his


"Oh Minki." Joshua sighed sadly as he slowly pulled the older into his arms. "When was the last time you ate or drank something. Your extremely pale." Joshua asked cupping Minki's cheek, caressing his cheek.


"When I was at your house with the others." Minki admitted as Joshua's eyes widened.


"Holy shit Minki that was Friday night! It's Sunday afternoon! That's it, I'm making you food. Now drink." Joshua said holding a cup of water up to Minki's lips.


"Thanks. I'm sorry Shua." Minki whispered as Joshua pulled him into a kiss. "Ofcourse baby, now I'm gonna make you whatever you want to eat." Joshua whispered kindly.


"Your too nice to me." Minki laughed as Joshua shook his head. "I care about you baby. I love you." Joshua said placing a kiss on Minki's forehead.


"I love you too." Minki smiled as he pulled Joshua down into a hug. For this being the first time the 2 said they love eachother, it felt right.


"Am I aloud to come with you to the kitchen?" Minki asked as Joshua hesitated. "Okay buy your gonna sit there and do nothing." Joshua said picking up Minki as he wrapped his legs around Joshua's waist.


"Okay so do you want to tell me what happened and why you haven't eaten since Friday?" Joshua asked pulling out a pot to make mac-and-cheese because that's what Minki wanted.


"Our grandmother died Friday night. That's why me and Seungcheol left your house Friday night." Minki admitted.


"Oh baby. I'm so sorry." Joshua said putting down the spoon and pulled Minki into a tight hug.


"It's just been a hard time." Minki whispers as Joshua rubs his back. "I bet, it's okay baby. I'm here." Joshua whispers as he places a kiss on Minki head.


"Thank you, but you can't tell anyone else, especially Jeonghan. I want Seungcheol to be ready, and right now he's not." Minki said.


"Don't worry,  I wont say anything to anyone, but that doesn't mean you can't talk to me about anything your going through. I'll always be here for you." Joshua reminded him.


"Thank you but your gonna burn that mac-and-cheese." Minki said as Joshua's eyes widened as he ran back to the stove to save their lunch.
