«Dr. Kim, Don't Fear Me» [K.n.j & K.s.j]

97 ⸸

With nothing else on his mind besides his job, the doctor pressed his foot down on the gas pedal to make it to his job sooner, since he was already one hour late.

"Good morning boss, I'm sorry I'm late. It won't happen again, sir." Namjoon lowered his head to a middle aged man, who was his boss. He was forgiven for arriving a little late, so
that made Namjoon feel better. Now with that out of the way, the doctor proceeded to enter his office, placing his suitcase beside his desk, to turn his computer on.

Since he hadn't eaten anything for breakfast, a friend of his was kind enough to give him a cup of coffee and leave it by his desk. The warm coffee helped Namjoon power through his day, giving him the energy he was missing from the night before.

"Seokjin must be awake by now. I hope he isn't dizzy from the anemia. I wonder what he's doing now..."

~Meanwhile~

Seokjin got up, wondering where Namjoon was. He then remembered that today was Wednesday and that Namjoon had to work.

He pouted, heading downstairs, noticing the cereal bowl along with the two small red pills. He scratched his head.

"What could these be for?" He then read a small note that said "Don't forget to drink these, they're for your anemia." Seokjin suddenly remembered what they were and poured himself cereal in the bowl, along with milk.

Although the man had no energy in him, at least he had an appetite for eating so he could take the iron pills. When they melted into his mouth, the taste of blood instantly hit him.

It was bitter, yet sweet. The pill turned into liquid and the aftertaste was horrible, but nonetheless, the man was happy that he no longer enjoyed the taste of blood.

His life was officially normal.

Seokjin smiled, breathing in fresh air before walking around the house for a little bit. The apartment was so beautiful and clean, the only messy part of it was the bedroom he and Namjoon had slept in, so the man went upstairs to clean it.

"There are the clothes I had left in the living room yesterday." When Seokjin leaned down to pick the clothes up, his head started spinning. He was very weak and dizzy.

To avoid feeling any dizzier or weak, Seokjin tried his best to clean up the room to head downstairs just in case he got worse and had to call Namjoon or even leave the house in search for help. He was hoping that he didn't have to do that, however.

When he was downstairs in the living room, Seokjin found something behind the couch Namjoon likes to sit on.

"His computer has been back here, huh?" He opened the screen, turning the laptop on.

The wind gently blew through the living room window, helping the man relax and feel calm as he patiently waited for the device to power on, holding it in his lap.

It finally loaded after fifteen seconds, exposing the background screen. Namjoon's background was a beautiful landscape of the beach.

"He must enjoy the beach." Seokjin clicked on an app called YouTube to hear music in the background as he searched the web until Namjoon got back home.

Now, the man was planning on cooking before Namjoon arrived, but the doctor told him to not move a muscle until he got back home, and that he would arrive with takeout.

With no worries in his head, the man let his mind sink deep into the internet, allowing the music to flow through his ears, lightening up his mood even though he was listening to alternative music.

Ever since he found Cyberpunk, the store gave him new song suggestions from the intercom. Seokjin was muttering a few words now and then while tapping his finger on the couch.

The internet has many websites to visit, but a very specific one caught Seokjin's eye.

"Vampire vs. Human lifestyle." He clicked on the title and started to read.

"Vampires don't sleep, while a regular human being who doesn't suffer from insomnia does in fact, need their 24 hours of sleep. Or 8, as long as it's more than 5.

Vampires need to consume blood once or twice a year to survive, depending on the amount the drink. If they drink too much, it could become an addiction and leave them wanting more than just once a year. Though every month wouldn't cause them harm.

Humans, however, they need food. Food contains nutrition and it's just as appetizing to them as blood is to vampires. A human can survive longer without food, than without water." Seokjin was surprised by a lot of these facts.

Something suddenly popped up in his page. A private message.

"Hi, Joonie!! It's me, Mina! I was wondering if you wanted to go get dinner tonight to celebrate our 7th anniversary of being best friends!" That girl. The girl who hugged Seokjin tightly and who kept on continuously kissing Namjoon's cheeks was texting Namjoon, unaware that Seokjin was using his laptop.

"They have known each other for seven years?"
