This is another go at a Hanahaki since I'm still very much in love with them. This is going to be one that I don't think I've seen yet so I'm giving it a try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was christmas time in Seoul, South Korea and Jeon Jungkook, main vocalist and maknae of the popular boy band BTS couldn't have been more excited. He had read in a magazine that if you spend Christmas Eve and day alone with the one that you love you are sure to be together forever, now the only issue he had was the fact that the person he loved wasn't going to be alone with him. You see, Jungkook, the poor boy had realised a month back during the first snow fall in Seoul back at the beginning of November that he had feelings for one of his hyungs. He remembered that day like it was yesterday, it was pretty hard to forget since he had uncovered his feelings for his hyung but it was the same day that he started to get chest pains and smell flowers randomly.

That day he was walking through the square with Taehyung laughing and joking when they suddenly came across a small shop that was selling flowers. Taehyung being the guy he is who retains unnecessary facts but is also a secret genius, maybe even smarter than their hyung Namjoon was telling Jungkook the story of every flower he could remember the meaning to. Suddenly Jungkook was caught off guard, he heard a gasp come from his elder and looked up at the honey skinned man who had just spotted lilies. He looked between the lilies and Jungkook with a big boxy grin then smelled them deeply, seeing his hyung so happy made the young 18 year olds heart swell. He had been clinging onto every word the gorgeous man had been saying to him so when Taehyung just gave a chirp about how they were his favourite flower. The boy made a mental note to remember that and also remember how much he loved that big boxy smile that made his hyungs eyes scrunch up near the corners as they lit up and shimmered real bright with adoration.

Now at the present date, December 15, Jungkook had gone for a walk in the town by himself after experiencing a spell of chest pain as well as the very strong and almost sickening scent of flowers causing him to have a coughing fit. Rather than worry his hyungs Jungkook too his leave and decided to try and do some Christmas shopping while he was out. He bought presents for each of his hyungs all personalised, when he got to Taehyung tho the gifting got more difficult. Jungkook thought about what he wanted to get Taehyung for hours but only recieved strong coughing fits in return, after thinking particularly long and hard along with a coughing fit Jungkook doubled over in pain. He threw up onto the  sidewalk near a building where he leaned, it wasn't until he opened his eyes that it wasn't normal stomach bile and old food he'd thrown up it was white flower petals. The now scared and sick teenager looked around in a panic but no one else seemed to pay attention to him, this only made him throw up more as the panic built, not eflower petals came out. Jungkook managed to calm himself but only barely and called for an Uber to take him to his dorm, face mask up so the Uber driver didn't recognize him of course.

Weeks passed and it was almost Christmas now, Jungkook was getting paler with each passing day and the amount of flower petals he threw up was increasing along with the sickening scent of flowers. The maknae didn't know what to do and he was too scared to go to a doctor so he went to someone he knew he could trust, his most clumsy hyung but the most trustworthy with secrets, Namjoon. Cautious as ever and a bit reluctant the young man knocked on his leaders door and awaited an answer. When there was a call out of "It's open" Jungkook opened the studio door and trudged inside standing behind the elder silently. Namjoon turned around and looked at Jungkook, catching sight of how pale and sickly he looked before he gestured for Jungkook to sit down on the small sofa in the corner of hair studio. "You don't look too good, kook. What's wrong?"

Hours of talking had left Jungkook less stressed out but more upset about his one sided love on Taehyung. Namjoon had told Jungkook about a very rare sickness called 'Hanahaki' which people suffered from when they struggled with a one sided love and they would cough up flower petals and have increasing chest pains, that solved Jungkook's worry of his sudden sickness and the flower petals. However Namjoon created another worry for Jungkook, he had told Jungkook that he could get the flowers removed and forget all about his love for Taehyung or he could confess to the other and find out if it would stay one-sided, if it did and he didn't get them removed he would die. Jungkook say there in shock just staring at the wall ahead of him he could either; embarrass himself to his favoirite hyung then die, get the flowers removed and forget he ever loved his hyung, he could get lucky and Taehyung could feel the same way.
