Third person POV
Later that night Jeongguk and Taehyung decided to drink beer and Taehyung ends up getting himself drunk. Well, if you could ask me, Jeongguk is a sober and he is not that easily to get drunk, compared to Taehyung. Taehyung is not used on drinking beer or any alcohol beverages, for him Taehyung is weak. Taehyung is now sprawled on their couch like a starfish, while mumbling some profanities in his sleep. Jeongguk just chuckled and decide to bring the drunk boy down on his own bed before tucking him in his sleep.
He smiled at the thought of Taehyung being 23 yrs old, yet he still acts like a child. He walked down the stairs and start's cleaning the mess they both made, and sleep at his own room.
---------------------------
Morning came and Taehyung woke up with a throbbing pain on his head area, he got out of his bed and do his morning routine again and tidied his bed, before going downstairs. Jeongguk is already therw, on their kitchen, cooking some pasta dish.
"Drink this painkillers Hyung," Jeongguk handed the painkillers to him and ruffled the little one's fluffy hair.
"Thank you, Goshhh!! It hurts like hell..." Taehyung hissed after taking the painkillers inside his throat, after gulping the right amount of water.
"Let's eat!"
Jeongguk said and the two of them ate the pasta that Jeongguk's own recipe, sitting on their kitchen island table while talking about some anime characters. They laughed with their own jokes. If you look at them you could mistaken them as a weird couple, because of how the both of them are so intimate into each other. For Jeongguk, Taehyung is his bestfriend, he love him as a friend. He see Taehyung as his Hyung, a brother to him.
So no need to worry or to be confused on this story.
------------------------
"Ggukie," Taehyung hissed when Jeongguk is winning the game. They currently now playing Mario Kart and Jeongguk didn't give him a chance to win the game they take. And Taehyung crossed the finish line with second place.
"I-I lost again!" Taehyung crossed his arms and threw the controller on Jeongguk's lap playfully. Jeongguk chuckled and smiled at his childish action. Then he turn Taehyung's face to him, causing Taehyung to pout more, who huffed cutely in front of Jeongguk.
"Okay, okay I'll let you win this time, Hyung,"
Taehyung immediately got the controller on Jeongguk's lap and tap the play button. After that video gaming, Jeongguk said that he needs to see his parents in Venice, he wants Taehyung to go with him, but the latter said that he is okay and he is too lazy to see his mother with Jeongguk's parents. His mom and Jeongguk's parents stayed in Venice since their college days, so they just need to go there if they want to see their parents.
But Taehyung, with a heavy heart he still refused to go there. He just don't want his mother to say such things on him like; 'you just came here because of money', 'a stupid bitch who's gay'.
He doesn't want to hear again all the unpleasant words of his mother. Even though he didn't do anything, and ignored it, he couldn't help but to be hurt and also affected by that.
Jeongguk didn't know about that, so the younger let it be. Jeongguk never forget to say some works for his own safety.
"Hyung, you should lock the door and don't open the door if it's not me,"
"Okie, I'll keep that on mind. Don't worry about me. I can handle myself, i'm your hyung noh, go and not worry about me. I'm fine..." he replied to the handsome male dressed in all black.
"Just do as what I said, hyung," Jeongguk looked at him worriedly.
He couldn't let Taehyung pass by his opinion.
Well---Taehyung just by hearing Jeongguk's tone he just nods like a good puppy himself.
Not wanting to have a loooooong conversation with this worried man in front him.
He kept showing his warm smile to the other male. He don't want the other male to worry about him. Taehyung and Jeongguk went together to the airport and bid their temporary goodbyes.
Jeongguk said he will just stay there in a day or two.
Jeongguk also said that he will be back as soon as possible because of Taehyung too. He's just hella worried for his best friend being alone in their house.
After Jeongguk settled with his plane Taehyung quickly went home after he went home and dizzy. When he got home he fell asleep, the dinner is forgotten.
-------------------------
He woke up with a stinging pain in his chest and coughed a bit. He started to feel his head aching so badly and non stop of coughing.
"A-ahh...." Taehyung suddenly clutched his chest having difficulties in breathing. He deeply inhaled and exhaled, trying to stop the unknown anxiety coming up inside him. After a long massaging of his chest his heart calmed down.
Thank god his heartbeat went back to its normal pace. Because it's been a long time when his heart hurt again. It's been a long long time when he has a ca---
His phone rang as he immediately looked at the caller ID and its "Ggukie❤".
He cleared his throat to make his voice presentable and not look like sick for the other male.
"G--Ggukie..."
"Hey! Hyung how are you there?" Jeongguk asked full energy and happiness in his voice.
"I-I'm okay, I g-guess," He answered, unsure of what to say.
"You stuttered Hyung. I know you too well, you know that," Jeongguk's voice turned more serious and dark, scaring the hell out of him.
That made him surrender submissive.
"I-I just have a cough and I-I think I'm j-just s-sick," Taehyung stuttered explaining the truth to his best friend.
"Sorry," Taehyung slumped his shoulder down, guilt building up inside him.
Jeongguk noticed that Taehyung suddenly stopped talking after that sorry.
"Hyung?" he asked.
The aforementioned replied, stuttering a small "y-yes" on the younger.
"Okay Hyung, just eat properly---don't you ever skip your meals hmmm and take medicine on near my study table in my room and sleep well, huh?"
Jeongguk's voice laced with concern and Taehyung can feel that even if they're talking through the phone.
Taehyung nodded even if Jeongguk is unable to see him nodding.
"I'll eat well, and I won't starve myself...." he said softly to Jeongguk.
"Okay Hyung, just take care of yourself. I'm heading back home tomorrow. Goodnight Hyung," Jeongguk informed.
"Should I stay awake to--" But Jeongguk cut him off.
"No need Hyung, just take a rest. I have my spare key with me inside my pocket. You have to rest, Bye!" Jeongguk said softly to the latter through the phone.
"U-uhm... Bye..." He hung up his phone and laid down on his bed. A bit bothered about his heart.
