"Oh god man you are miserable these days. What happened to happy crazy Chanyeol who blares SuperM in the car?" Sehun pushes the bakery door open as Chanyeol practically drags his feet into the bakery, behind the counter and into the back rooms.

"Misery guts" Sehun huffs sitting in a booth and taking his phone from his pocket. Scrolling to check any more updates from SuperM he smiles seeing the small videos of them walking around sightseeing and signing huge posters of themselves. Bursting out laughing he drops his phone finding it hard to breathe at the moment.

"Eh you ok?" Chanyeol joins him, fixing his apron around his waist and tying it at the back.

" Did you see the new post from SuperM?" 

" Which one?" Chanyeol sits in the booth in front of him taking out his phone.

" I can't tell you you have to see it for yourself" Sehun stands up still laughing as he heads behind the counter to put his coat and bag in the back room

Scrolling through the SuperM page he clicks on the one video he hasn't seen yet and looks at the screen with a furrowed brow. " What the hell is Kai writing ?" He says out loud rewatching the video again he bursts out laughing.

"He wrote Sperm in the English language and then changed it " Chanyeol shouts before bursting out laughing. 

" Aww bless he is just so adorable " Sehun rejoins him at the booth looking at Chanyeol who is now slumped down in the booth looking rather pale.

" Yeol you don't look great are you ok?" Sehun places the back of his hand on his friend forehead

"I feel crap Sehun and I have a small cough" Chanyeol rubs his chest and lays his head back a little 

"You need to go to the doc. I thought you were not well because you just missed Baekhyun but I think you're actually sick Yeol " Sehun sits down worried for his friend 

"I'll be ok Sehun I'm a warrior" Chanyeol moves to stand up and loses his balance a little 

"You need to go home" Sehun holds his friend by the arm and helps him sit again.

"Morning all" Suho, their boss, enters the bakery smiling till he spots Chanyeol with his head laying on the table.

"Is everything ok?" He walks over worried as Chanyeol sits up 

" You look like you need a doctor, " Suho says, touching Chanyeol's forehead with the back of his hand. "You're burning up" Suho says before taking out his phone and making a call.

"Ok doctor will see you now If we can get you across the road to his clinic" Suho signals for Sehun to help him as they both take an arm each and walk him across the road near the car park.

"Hey Chanyeol it's me doctor Lee how long have you been feeling like this?" The doctor helps guide them into his room as they lay Chanyeol on the examination bed.

"I've just been a bit down lately but I have a small little cough. I assumed it was because of the change in the weather. I was ok this morning it's like it just hit me worse all of a sudden" Chanyeol moans holding his now pumping sore head.

"Ok let me check your chest by listening to the lungs" the doctor helps him sit up as the others wait outside .

"Ok take a deep breath and let it out" the doctor listens closely then removes his stethoscope.

"Chanyeol you have the start of a chest infection. I will give you some medicine to clear it right up that should help with bringing the temperature down also. You need to be in bed resting so the rest of the week you will have off work. I will give your boss the sick note" the doctor scribbles down on this notepad as Chanyeol looks down at his hands. 

"I never usually get sick doctor " Chanyeol huffs a little feeling crap right now

" We can all get sick at some stage it's just your turn I'm afraid. But look you caught it early be grateful you only have a little cough now it can get worse. You may want to cough up some phlegm please spit it out don't swallow" 

"Eewww" Chanyeol moans making the doctor laugh " you will be very surprised how many people swallow after they cough up" the doctor passes the list of medicine and makes his way to the door to get the others.

" Suho, I'm afraid he needs bed rest for the rest of this week. He has the start of a chest infection and he needs to get home" the doctor passes the sick note before moving to help them with Chanyeol.

" Since Jaehyun is minding the bakery before we open I'll help you take him home" Sehun just nods his head, wanting his friend to feel better soon.

Hours later 

"Sehun I'm fine stop calling me I need to rest " Chanyeol moans down the phone at his worried friend who seems to ring every 2 hours to check on him.

Since he is awake again he logs into his Instagram in search of more information from SuperM. He can't help but smile and drool over the beauty that is Byun Baekhyun.

Smiling he sees videos just posted of them in their new t-shirts that move if you get the app.

(A/n This is just a screen shot of the video)

"  Oh my god look at him. I miss you so fucking much " Chanyeol can't stop re watching the video over and over again smiling so hard seeing baekhyun the man he is falling for hard.

Putting down his phone he snuggles into his pillow hugging it tight feeling sorry for himself that he is sick but also because he misses his idol's touch.

Halfway across the world and a day behind at 10 o'clock at night Baekhyun sits on his hotel room bed after having his shower with a towel wrapped around his body.

"Baek baek you descent?" Kai bursts in the room they share as Baekhyun just laughs not being able to answer because judging by the face on Kai he has something to tell and it won't keep

"I was talking to Sehun for like a second and he told me Chanyeol is sick"

" What, is he ok?" Baekhyun climbs off his bed, nearly dropping his towel as he rushes back to the bathroom to retrieve his phone after using it to listen to music while showering.

(What Baekhyun sees)

Closing the app for Instagram he sends a message to his favorite restaurant that a close friend of his owns and requests they send their bed soup and fresh bread to Chanyeol's address until he is better. 

Smiling to himself he clicks back into insta and sends a cute picture 

Throwing his phone onto the bed he dishes off getting dressed before he heads down to get his hair styles and his makeup done

" Did you ring Chanyeol?" Kai walks with him to the lift fixing the clothes he just changed into with a towel around his head trying to dry his hair a bit better.

" I messaged him while I was getting dressed he has a chest infection and I so fucking wish I was there with him right now but I'm not so I ordered some soup from the restaurant and they will send it over to him for the next few days"

" You really like this guy don't you?" Kai steps into the lift with his friend as Baekhyun smiles "you have no idea how much I really like him Kai" Baekhyun smiles ever more with a small blush as the door to the lift closes.

" I think I know by the smile on your face right now. Are you scared? In case you fall for him because I am with Sehun if I'm honest" Kai lowers his head thinking of the guy he too wants to be with back home.

" The heart wants what it wants Kai and I'm following it . If it leads me to a guy like Chanyeol who I have kissed and he hasn't posted it or any of our messages online by now I want to give him a chance and maybe when I get home he will join me at my place for dinner"

Exiting the lift Kai rushes behind Baekhyun " Your inviting him to your place you must really like this guy"

" Like I said Kai, I want to give him a chance. He has been so amazing with me. I want to show him the real me and not the guy on tv" Baekhyun smiles, taking his seat as the staff members get to work on their hair and makeup.

Seoul

Buzz buzz 

Moaning from his bed Chanyeol climbs out hearing the buzzer for his apartment as he makes his way slowly towards the phone receiver on the wall. Picking it up he speaks 

" Hello... Are you sure that's for me.... Ok come on up" hanging up the phone he makes his way to the door and unlocks it while holding onto the blanket he has draped around his shoulders keeping him warm.

" Hello Mr Park I have a special delivery for you from Mr Byun " the guys hold out a bag very gently towards Chanyeol as the taller one takes it.

 "Thank you ,oh I should tip you" Chanyeol moves back towards his sofa as the guy calls out "No need to Mr Byun has already sorted out payment please enjoy the food and would at the same time be good for tomorrow's order?"

" Tomorrow's order?" Chanyeol looks puzzled at the man still standing at the door

" Yes Mr Park , Mr Byun has ordered that we deliver the homemade soup to you for the rest of this week sir so is this time ok each day?" Chanyeol can't believe what he is hearing Baekhyun has done all this for him.

"Ye... Yes please this time would be perfect thank you" Chanyeol smiles as the man bows and leaves making him close the door.

Dragging himself into the kitchen he opens the bag to see a container holding hot soup. Taking the lid off he sniffs the chicken smell as it dances around his nostrils . " Oh yummy" he turns to find a spoon and takes a little taste of it.

" Oh fuck me that's amazing" he moans taking the soup container and the small little basket of bread moving over to the sofa he places it down on the table as he fixes his blanket . Turning on the superM countdown in Las Angeles he smiles and tucks into the soup feeling a little better already .
