Genre: Slight Angst, Fluff
Description: Yuta is extremely clumsy and the members always keep an eye on him, but one day he gets hurt and hides it from the members to not worry them.
Yuta was probably the most clumsy person the eight men had ever met, this causing the need in all of them to protect him.
The boy tripped over his own feet while dancing causing him to fall, he was waiting to hit the ground until he felt a pair of arms catch him.
He looked up and saw Jungwoo, "You need to be more careful hyung!" Jungwoo gasped, pulling the Japanese closer.
"You're going to hurt yourself one day and we wouldn't want that." The Korean sighed, inspecting Yuta making sure he hadn't hurt himself.
The Japanese pouted, "I'm sorry, Woo, I'll be more careful, I promise!" He said, wrapping his arms around Jungwoo's neck.
The younger smiled, leaving a small peck on his lips, "Alright darling, are you going to stay behind a little? Or you coming home with me?" Jungwoo asked.
Yuta thought for a moment, "I'll practice a bit more Woo, I'll call Yongie before I leave to let him know I'm on my way." Yuta informed the younger earning a nod.
"Alright, be careful bubs!" Jungwoo spoke, waving the other goodbye.
Yuta sighed as the door closed and walked over to start the music and practice the dance once more.
Everything was going smoothly until he tripped and hit the floor quite hard, he hissed in pain he hit his leg off the floor quite hard, more specifically his knees.
He looked at his hands and saw some small scratches on them but didn't mind too much, he was more concerned about his knees.
He pulled up his pants and saw bruises already forming plus a cut in the middle on his left knee, he didn't realise he fell that hard.
Yuta decided that it would be best to hide this from the others since they'll panic too much and won't let him practice on his own again.
Yuta groaned in pain has he stood up and wiped his hands since they got dirty because of the dance floor.
He grabbed his stuff and called Taeyong, "Yuta? Are you okay?" The leader asked, "Yep! I'm on my way home." Yuta informed, walking out the building into the chilly night.
"Okay, do you want someone to pick you up?" Taeyong asked, concerned since it was quite late and it was really cold outside.
"It's alright, I'll walk, the dorms aren't too far away anyway." Yuta spoke, starting his walk back home, "Alright, see you in a bit, I love you!" Taeyong spoke.
Yuta smiled, "Bye Yongie." He hung up the phone and walked home with a slight limp, he was thinking about how to hide his hands from the others.
He went in his coat pockets to see if he had any gloves and unfortunately he didn't, so he just put his hands in his pockets instead.
He was shivering because of how cold it was outside and just wanted to get back home with the others and cuddle.

The Japanese finally got home and opened the door, hearing shouts and laughs from all over the dorm which brought a smile to his face.
"Yuta hyung!" Haechan smiled widely when he saw the other and he went to wave to the other but he remembered his hands.
"Hi Channie." He greeted, smiling softly at Haechan, Mark, Jungwoo and Jaehyun playing games.
"Yuta's back?" He heard from the kitchen, he recognised the voice as Taeil but when he headed to the kitchen he saw Doyoung there as well.
"Yuta! You're back, do you want something to eat? I made you food." Doyoung smiled, walking to the elder and embracing him into a hug.
Yuta responded to the hug and nodded, "Yes please, let me go get changed." Yuta spoke, limping to his room.
Doyoung frowned, "Hyung? Did you see that?" Doyoung asked, looking at Taeil who was also looking at the direction Yuta just went with concern.
"Yeah, maybe it's nothing.. maybe we're just overthinking, help me get food ready for him?" Taeil sighed out, making a mental note to keep an eye on the boy.
Yuta sighed and collapsed onto his bed, checking on his knees, a bit of blood had trailed up and dried up down his leg and the bruises were a lot more noticeable now.
He sighed, he touched them and hissed at the feeling, he didn't know where the first aid kit was kept and didn't want to worry any of his boyfriends asking them for it.
"Yuta? I heard you're back!" Johnny spoke entering his room without warning, making Yuta panic and quickly roll his pants down.
Johnny noticed this and titled his head in confusion, "Buba? Are you okay?" He asked slightly concerned.
"Yeah, I'm okay, about to get changed actually." Yuta smiled, standing up with a slight gasp of pain, not expecting it to hurt then.
Johnny squinted his eyes but nodded regardless, and closed the door, heading to the living room where all the others are.
"Is he okay?" Jaehyun asked, looking at the American who had just entered the room, "He's saying he is, but keep an eye on him regardless." Johnny spoke sitting next to Jaehyun.
Yuta changed into Doyoung's hoodie and some of Taeyong's sweatpants and then left the room, heading to the living room where the others were.
They all noticed his presence and smiled softly, Taeil patting the space in between him and Mark and Yuta gladly accepted the offer and sat in the middle of the two.
He ate the food Taeil made him while the others were talking.
Jungwoo and Haechan did something to make the others laugh, unfortunately Yuta being a victim of Mark's hitting when he laughs the male accidentally slapped his left knee, causing him to cry out in pain.
"Hyung?" Mark asked concerned, "I-I'm okay.." he hissed, wiping the tears that had escaped his eyes
"Yuta, no you're not, what's happened?" Jaehyun sighed, coming closer to the other and crouched down in front him.
"N-nothing! Really!" Yuta spoke, trying to convince the man in front of him, Jaehyun looked at Taeil and the eldest nodded.
Jaehyun rolled up Yuta's sweatpants up carefully, with much protest from the other and they all gasped and the huge bruises on the boys knee and the cut of the left knee.
"Hyung! What happened?" Haechan asked, quickly running over to the injured male.
Taeyong, Johnny and Taeil all looked at each other and sighed, "It's nothing! Don't worry about it!" Yuta spoke smiling at them, trying to roll the sweatpants down.
Mark held his wrists to stop him from doing it, that's when the Canadian noticed the small cuts on his hands, "Bubs, whats happened here?" He asked, causing the attention to go on his hands as well.
"Yuta, tell us what happened." Taeyong spoke, with a stern tone making the Japanese look down, "I-I just fell over when practicing, it's nothing serious!" Yuta finally admitted.
All of them sighed, Doyoung stood up to go get the first aid kit and came back and passed it to Taeil.
The eldest cleaned up his wounds, Yuta hissed in pain because it stung so bad and he started crying from the feeling.
Mark was quick to embrace the boy in a tight hug, Johnny stood behind him, playing with his hair, soothing the boy down.
"You need to be more careful baby.." Taeil spoke softly, rolling down the sweatpants and left a small kiss on both his knees where the injuries were.
Yuta nodded, sniffling, "I'm sorry Woo! I didn't mean to get hurt!" Yuta cried out, feeling bad since he told Jungwoo he wouldn't get hurt.
The younger smiled softly, "It's alright hyung.. but please be more careful now? Hm?" Jungwoo spoke softly, coming closer to the other, bringing his hand up to his lips and pecked the elders hand.
"I promise, I'm so sorry.." He whispered, earning a soothing hand on his arm from Mark who was still cuddling him.
"It's alright, Yu, it's alright." Mark spoke out quietly.
