Jin went to the bathroom and grabbed a washcloth, wetting it under some warm water. He also grabbed a breathing patch that goes on your chest to help aid in congestion. He went back in Jungkook's room where everyone was still comforting the maknae.

He sat next to Jungkook on the bed and began wiping his face up with the warm wash cloth. He also placed the breathing patch on Jungkook's chest. "This should help you breathe a bit. Are you ready? I want you checked on as soon as possible. Do you want something to eat first?"

Jungkook shook his head no.

"He can't even keep down water why would he want to eat?" Yoongi asked, mockingly.

"Yah! Hush! I was just asking!" Jin replied.

Namjoon and Taehyung helped Jungkook stand up from bed, he had a hard time walking as he wanted to just clutch his stomach. His stomach was hurting so badly. Jimin carried the puke bucket as they all helped the youngest get into the back of the car. Once in the car, they could see Jungkook violently shaking.

Yoongi wiped more sweat from Jungkook's forehead. "Why are you so shaky?" he asked, worried.

"I'm so cold."

"Cold? You're sweating and it's summer. It's like a million degrees outside how are you cold?"

Jungkook shed more tears. "I don't know hyung. I'm just really cold."

"Yoongi-ah can you grab him one of your sweaters before we go please?" Jin asked. Yoongi ran in and grabbed the smallest one he could find and handed it to his maknae.

"Thank y-" Jungkook fell into another coughing fit. Everyone frowned in worry.

"Take care of him Jinnie hyung." Jimin sulked as Jin hopped in the drivers seat.

Everyone hugged Jungkook and gave him a kiss on his forehead before watching them drive away. They had all wished to go along too, but Jin wanted go keep the trip lowkey.

Yoongi immediately texted Jungkook.

Yoongiiiii-hyungie: just hang in there bunny. you'll be alright. i love you.

Jungkook was fast asleep in the back of the car the entire way to the doctor. Jin glanced at him through the rear view mirror and couldn't help but see how defeated his youngest looked.

A million thoughts swirled through his head. What if it was the drink? What if it IS killing him? My baby!! Dont worry kookie I wont let anything bad happen to you ever again!! He wiped his tears as they arrived at the doctors. Jin got out of the car and opened Jungkook's door, shaking him to wake him up. He was entirely drenched in sweat.

"Yahh Jungkook-ah I know you said you're cold but maybe take the sweater off. It's really too hot out. You're soaked. And I really don't need a repeat of yesterday..." Jin didn't want him passing out because of the heat. That would've created a ton of new problems.

Jungkook listened and slowly took the sweater off, but stayed in his seat clutching his stomach and gripping his puke bucket. "Hyung it hurts too much to walk..." he whined.

"But you have to." Jin stared at him. The two of them silently stared at each other for a moment before Jungkook spoke up again and asked, "Can you please carry me?" He presented his hyung with big, pleading eyes.

"Ahh! Seriously kookie?! You can't walk?!"

Before he could say anything else, Jungkook got sick into his bucket and cried.

Jin felt so bad. He rubbed Jungkook's back. "Okay, hyung will bring you in just try not to puke on me please." He scooped him up into his arms and grabbed the bucket.

Jungkook wrapped his arms around Jin's neck and buried his face into his hyungs chest. Jin could feel how badly he was wheezing in his arms. It felt like he was struggling to take every single breath, however the maknae claimed the breathing patch was working.

When they got inside Jin went to put Jungkook down in a chair but the youngest kept his grip around his neck.

"Let go now kookie you can sit."

"No hyung please hold me."

"What?! Hold you?! Kook-ah you're too big to just sit on my lap at the doctors office!!"

"Please hyung. It hurts."

Jin felt terrible but also didn't want to hold Jungkook in a doctors waiting room either.

"I'll hold your hand now let go of my neck."

"But hyungie...don't you love me anymore?" Jungkook asked. He tried to hide his smile. He really didn't feel good but also never missed an opportunity to mess with his Jin hyung. He looked up at Jin with his big doe eyes.

"Ugh! Why this question?! Of course you know hyung loves you! Fine! Sit with me. But just know that you're a total brat!" Jin laughed as he sat down, now with Jungkook wrapped around his neck. Jin took out his phone to check them into the office online. He also texted Namjoon.

jinhyung: he may be sick but still as big of a brat as day 1!!! this kid is giving me gray hairs! yah!!!

leaderjoonie: 😂😂 golden maknae is golden at annoying you 😂 how is he?

jinhyung: a puddle of sweat and endless vomit

leaderjoonie: still?? hopefully the doctor can help. our poor kookie :/

jinhyung: yah:( seeing him like this is hard ...

leaderjoonie: keep us updated

jinhyung: 👍🏻

He put his phone away and noticed he was getting some weird looks from people walking by, but he ignored them. Jungkook had fallen asleep on him. About half an hour later a doctor finally called them in.

"Kookie get up now its your turn."

Jungkook just mumbled and ignored Jin.

"Yahh! Brat I tell you!" Jin complained as he stood up and carried Jungkook into a room. Gently laying him down on the bed.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Jun. What seems to be going on today?" The doctor asked as he looked at Jungkook, who was curled up on the bed.

The maknae felt too sick to talk, he thought if he opened his mouth he'd throw up again. He looked at Jin, and Jin could tell he didn't feel like speaking.

"He's been really sick since last night. He has a really bad fever and can't breathe and he's been throwing up constantly. I don't understand what happened, he was fine yesterday," Jin explained.

The doctor examined Jungkook, who ended up having a fever of 103F.

"Oh wow, that is high. We will have to monitor that, if it gets any higher he will need to go to the hospital," the doctor said, causing Jungkook to groan. He didn't want to go there.

The doctor continued his examination. "He's also extremely dehydrated. When was the last time he drank water?"

"He's been chugging water non-stop since yesterday. I don't know how he's dehydrated," Jin told the doctor.

Jin felt like the more the doctor spoke the more worried he became. The doctor explained that it was most likely due to him throwing up so much. The doctor could tell Jungkook was having a very hard time breathing, so he had a nurse bring in a machine that Jungkook was supposed to put in his mouth that administered medicine, but every time he tried to put it in his mouth he would start gagging.

The doctor switched the medicine to be administered through an oxygen mask instead. He also had him set up with an IV to help with his dehydration. The doctor went to check Jungkook's pulse and noticed finger print shaped bruises around his wrist, and a large scrape on his arm.

"Hey buddy, what happened here?" The doctor asked Jungkook. Jin gulped, he knew Jungkook got the scrape from falling at the park yesterday but he wasn't sure why he had bruises on his wrist.

"Oh I...I was wrestling with hyung's for fun yesterday. It was nothing," he replied.

The doctor just gave a quick nod and continued taking his pulse. It was too fast.

The doctor asked Jin a bunch of questions about the maknae's age and medical history and such. He then ordered to have different rapid blood tests be done to try and figure out the cause of all of this. He told Jin he will be back with results in just a little while and for them to hang tight for a bit.

"Kook-ah what the hell is this!?" Jin asked while pointing to his bruised wrist.

"The creep at the park yesterday remember?! He grabbed my wrist and was dragging me!"

"Oh, right." Jin let out a sigh of relief, he thought someone might've secretly hurt Jungkook or something.

The two were silent for a while. Jungkook felt exhausted and was fighting to keep his eyes open. Jin sat next to him on the bed and rubbed his back until Jungkook took his hand and started mindlessly playing with his fingers. They stared at each other for a moment before Jungkook started to quietly cry and look away.

"Kook?" Jin asked softly, "Are you okay?"

Jungkook couldn't look at him, but replied.

"Hyung? If I do end up dying-"

Jin cut him off. "Don't say that. You won't."

"But if I do..." Jungkook whispered. He had never felt so sick in his life. He knew this was because of that stupid thing he drank, and he figured it was going to kill him.

"You won't! I won't let you! So stop saying it okay?!" Jin cried. He was swallowing his panic. He didn't want to think about the worst case scenario, but it was lingering in the back of his thoughts.

"Okay. I'm sorry," Jungkook whispered and finally closed his eyes to fall asleep. Jin wiped back the hair sticking to Jungkook's sweaty forehead and went back to rubbing his back while he slept.

Dr. Jun returned a bit later, accompanied by a police officer. Jin and Jungkook were confused. The doctor asked Jin to step out of the room.

"What? Why?" He asked.

"Sir, please just wait in the hallway for just a few minutes," the police officer asked.

Jin hesitantly left the room and waited in the hallway, he texted Namjoon again.

jinhyung: they made me wait in the hallway while a police officer is in the room with him????

leaderjoonie: ???did they say why???

jinhyung: no i have no idea!!!!

leaderjoonie: that's really weird...??

Jin was too panicked to keep texting so he put his phone back in his pocket and waited.

In the room, the police officer said they'd just like to ask Jungkook some questions.

"I know you aren't feeling well but I just have to ask you some things," the officer started.

Jungkook stared at her.

"Do you feel safe at home?"

Jungkook was shocked by the question, what the hell?

"Of course I do," he whispered. He was in no condition to talk but he felt like he didn't have much of a choice.

"And who do you live with?" the officer asked.

"Hyungie."

"Is your hyung nice to you?"

"The nicest."

The officer also asked him what happened to his arm and wrist, and he re-explained what he already told the doctor. He then realized what was happening.

Oh my god, they think Jin hyung abuses me!

Jungkook panicked, he didn't want to see his hyung get in some kind of trouble for literally no reason. "I promise everything is fine at home. Hyung takes the best care of me. He loves me a lot. He brought me here because I'm sick." He pouted as tears streamed down his face. "Can he please come back in now?"

The officer finished up and left the room, letting Jin go back in.

The doctor continued as if that whole ordeal never just happened. "So the blood results show that he actually has a pretty bad chest infection and multiple stomach viruses. He also has an ear infection. All at the same time."

Jin and Jungkook were stunned.

"Am I going to die?" Jungkook cried.

Jin nudged him. "Aish! How does that happen? He was fine yesterday when we went to the amusement park!"

"No kiddo, you're not going to die. It's all treatable."

Jin and Jungkook both let out a sigh of relief.

"He must have picked this all up from somewhere and it lingered, or he picked up a very strong virus at the park," the doctor declared. He also decided to put another IV into Jungkook that pumped medicine into him to see if it would ease the vomiting.

After another hour or so of waiting around hooked up to different medicines and breathing treatments, Jungkook actually did begin to feel better.

Jungkook and Jin both heard their phones go off, they received a group chat from Taehyung.

BTSGROUPCHAT:

Taehyung: update???? you guys have been gone forever is everything okay??

Now that Jungkook was feeling better, he couldn't help but pester his Jin hyung. He grabbed Jin's phone out of his hand while laughing.

"What are you doing?" He saw the evil smirk on his maknae's face while trying to grab his phone back.

BTSGROUPCHAT:

Jinhyung: he died

Jin snatched his phone back. "Jungkook why would you tell them that?! Are you trying to give them all a heart attack?!"

Jungkook laughed. "I'm sorry, I had to mess with them!"

Both Jin and Jungkook's phones started to immediately ring. Jin picked up and Jungkook whispered, "Tell them I died!"

"I'm not telling them that you little jerk!"

Jin put it on speaker phone. "He's fine he's fine he's fine! The little brat stole my phone and wanted to mess with you! I told you he's a brat!" Jin shouted.

All the members were also on speaker phone on the other end, and they all started yelling at Jungkook through the phone.

"Are you trying to send us into cardiac arrest?! You can't say something like that!" Jimin screamed. The members had been noticeably in a panic.

"Sorry, hyungs." The maknae did feel a little guilty. Maybe with everything going on this wasn't the best time to say something like that.

The members asked how he was feeling and he told them a lot better than earlier. They talked for a bit and then the doctor came back in, Jin told the members he had to go and hung up.

BTSGROUPCHAT:

jungkookie:   <3 <3 :)

yoongi:  golden brat

taehyung: >:[

jiminie: what tae said .. >:[

leaderjoonie: no dinner for you im eating it all

hobi: grow up!! Lol!!

The doctor told them that Jungkook's fever had gone down and now that he was feeling better they were all set to go. He just had to make sure to keep drinking plenty of water and get rest, he was also sending home medicine with them. Jungkook was thankful, he still felt nauseous but he had stopped throwing up a while ago, and it had become a lot easier for him to breathe. His fever had gone down and he wasn't profusely sweating anymore.

Finally.

The two headed back to the car. "How are you feeling now?" Jin asked.

"A lot better. Thank you for bringing me hyung."

"Why did a police officer go into your room?"

"About that...I'm pretty sure they thought you're abusive because of my arm."

"What?! Me?! Ahh! Jerks! What did you tell them?"

"That you beat me every day."

Jin gave Jungkook a panicked look, he was speechless.

"Will you relax? I'm kidding. I said you're great and they didn't really question it after that."

"Good. Although I guess it doesn't matter."

"Why?"

"Technically, 15 year old Jungkook isn't real. I lied about both of us on all the paperwork."

The two laughed and headed home.
