Fault
His PresenceHyuk woke up to see Hongbin sleeping on the bed beside him. A contented yawn escaped his lips as he stretched out. Somehow he slept better last night than he has ever did for the past 2 months.
"Hyuk? "Hongbin mutters sleepily when he heard the loud creaking sound the bed made as Hyuk get off the bed.
"Yes, hyung? "
"Pull me up. "The visual hold out his arms. Hyuk laughs as he he grabs Hongbin's arms and pull him up.
"I want to ask Hakyeon-hyung out to watch movie. You want to come along? "Hyuk asks.
"Of course. "
"Where's Hakyeon-hyung? "Hyuk asks Ravi who's sitting at the living room when he couldn't find N in his room.
Ravi sniffs at the question, feeling guilty once again.
"Are you crying? "Hyuk approaches him and try to peek at Ravi's face. "What's wrong? Did something happened? "He is truly cluelss since last night he slept earlier which is as soon as Leo and N's argument stopped.
"He's... at the hospital... "
"Hospital? Did he go visit Jaehwan-hyung this early? "
Ravi shakes his head. "He's... hurt. "
"Hurt?! "Hyuk half yells. "Why?! "
"He stepped on the glasses in my room... "
"Glasses? Why is there even any glass in your room? "
Ravi looks down in guilt and Hyuk understands immediately.
"Is it bad? "
"Quite... but he also have high blood pressure. "
"High blood pressure? Hakyeon-hyung? "Hongbin who just came out of the bedroom asks.
Ravi nods. "The doctor said he's stressed out. "
"Do you think... it's our fault? Did we make him stressed? "Hyuk asks.
"Of course the fault is ours. Who else do you think is responsible for that? "Hongbin says, remembering what N told him last night.
"Then we should make up for that. "
Leo patiently sit beside N's bed, waiting for him to wake up. He has told Ravi to go home last night, after they know about N's condition so he's now alone, not that it matters anyway.
He was silently humming to himself, trying to fill up the silence when N suddenly let out a soft groan.
"Hakyeon? "He calls out, trying to get him to open his eyes.
N doesn't react at first so Leo thought he's still asleep.
"Too... bright... "N whispers, taking Leo by surprise but he could still make out what the elder was saying. He quickly get out of his seat and pulls the curtain to cover the blinding light coming from the window.
"Better? "He asks, looking at N once again to see that the leader has already open his eyes.
N hums. "Why am I here? "
"You got yourself hurt, stepping on the glasses in Ravi's room. "Leo explains, gesturing towards N's feet which are heavily bandaged.
"Ah... "N just nods as if an injury like that is a daily accurence.
"Ah? "Leo asks in disbelief. Is that all the leader could say? "You're bleeding so much. Doesn't it hurt? "
N shrugs. "No? Maybe? I didn't even realise it. "
"You didn't? "How's that even possible?
"Nope. Guess I was just too focused on Wonshik. "N smiles. "How's he? Did he get hurt too? "
Leo couldn't help but widened his eyes. "You're the one lying in hospital bed and you're asking about Wonshik? Aren't you concerned for yourself? Do you even know that you've got high blood pressure? "
"Concern? Not really. I can take care of myself good enough. "N assures. "I've always been the one taking care of myself, don't you think so? "
That last sentence cut through Leo's heart so deep.
'Yes, that's right. '
'He has never been concerned about the leader's health before. '
'Has he been so blind as to over look each of the leader's fatigue? Because seriously, everyone must have fallen sick but the problem is he has never seen the leader sick. '
'Or has he? '
'Of course he has. He was just too ignorant because to him, the leader is more than capable to look after himself since he has been looking after the members so well. '
'He has never thought about how much the leader has been keeping all things to himself, how much burden he carry. '
'Gosh, just how a bad of a friend am I? '
"Taekwoon? Did you hear me? "N sounds impatient.
"Uh. What? "
"Haish ... I asked, how's Wonshik? "
"He's fine. I told him to go home. "
"Good. Have you visit Jaehwan this morning? "
"No? "
"Why not? Go visit him now. He's probably waiting. Tell him I'll come see him once I get a shower. "
"No. I'm staying here. With you. And you're not going anywhere, either. Stay here and rest. "
