Tomorrow, Today (COMPLETED)

Breathless

JB doesn't know it's because of the flu shot he took or because of he wants to see Jinyoung so bad, but his health is improving a lot and he heals faster than usual.
After Jackson informed him about Jinyoung being rushed to the hospital with high fever and now has to stay at the hospital with extra protection to keep him alive, JB became very anxious and he's so impatient, he went to a local clinic asking for a flu shot. A day after, he woke up feeling refreshed. He had to wait another day just to make sure he really recovered. JB eats a lot, drinks a lot, takes his med on time to keep his body fit. But he just can't get his head off thinking about Jinyoung.

Jackson sends all the updates regularly, but it's just making JB feels more worried. Jackson sent him picture of Jinyoung laying with his eyes closed, his cheeks red from the fever and he didn't seem to be comfortable at all with nasal cannula attached. Jinyoung was frowning, and he looked like he was in pain. The most disturbing thing is the transparent curtain around Jinyoung. Jackson told him it's mostly because of the hospital is full with people getting flu, Jinyoung's immune system is too wrecked to fight another germ.

But JB is not the only one. Other members are trying their best to fight their flu. Other than Yugyeom, all members bounce back quickly. Yugyeom still has to recuperate a few more days at home and he's feeling upset. He wants to meet Jinyoung too, but he thinks it's going to be dangerous if he meets his favorite hyung while he's still recovering. He restrains himself eventhough he feels useless. Other members cheer for him, saying that he should focus on his health first. Yugyeom nearly cried when JB called him.

The sickness really made GOT7 realized what it feels like to be in Jinyoung's shoes. The flu only took them down a few days, but they were feeling miserable. They all reflected and realized how hard it is for Jinyoung to feel miserable almost everyday for the past 6 months. And they really missed how Jinyoung would take care of them when they got sick. The thoughts lingered in all GOT7 members, making their affection to Jinyoung grew even bigger.

It's been three days after Jinyoung was rushed to the hospital and he has to stay inside of the curtain, but he doesn't get better. He's still has fever, sometimes it breaks but then the temperature climbs back up after a while. Jinyoung sleeps a lot because he seems to have no energy to do anything, but would wake up when Jackson or Boo young wakes him up for food or when the nurse checks his vitals. Jackson and Boo young have been taking turn watching over Jinyoung. Boo young told Jackson go home and get some rest, but Jackson is so stubborn. He said the sister they should take turn, Boo young agreed. They both make sure there's someone beside Jinyoung 24 hours while Jinyoung is still ravaged by the persistent fever. Park family members begin to bounce back too, but they have to wait a few days until they are fully recovered so they can go to Seoul.

"Seun..", Jinyoung calls for Jackson and the later flies over the younger man as fast as he can. Jinyoung rarely calls Jackson with only the last syllable. JB calls Jackson that way, but not Jinyoung. He always calls Jackson with full syllable like westerns do because Jinyoung is an English freak like that. He calls him Seun is probably because he's too tired to call him Jackson.
"Wae Jinyoung ah, do you need anything? Water?", Jackson asks gently, his voice is muffled under his mask. Jinyoung coughs.
Jinyoung's trembling hand reaching out to Jackson's. Jackson can feel the heat emitting from the younger man's skin.
"Go home, get some rest.. don't get sick", Jinyoung whispers.
Jackson's heart breaks, even when Jinyoung is very sick, he thinks about others first. Jackson looks at Jinyoung closely, his eyes are red and glassy, his lips are chapped and dry.
Jackson pats Jinyoung's hot grip and lets it go, he takes cotton bud from the drawer and a bottle of almond oil. Jackson carefully dips the cotton bud's tip into the bottle and smear it to Jinyoung's chapped lips.
"You like it, don't you Jinyoung ah?Your lips are so dry, I bet it hurts. Almond oil is good, you'll see the difference", Jackson ignores his friend's request and keeps smearing the oil carefully.
