17 ~ A Bit of A Seizure
This is literally such a horrible chapter I'm so sorry.
///
Normal P.O.V.
"There! I'm done" you say in a monotone, yet relieved voice, placing your gluestick down on the desk in front of you and glancing over your project for the last time.
Sowon placed her bag that she had just finished packing on the bed. "And I'm finished packing" she smiled. "Do you want me to wait for you and we can leave together?" She asked politely as you swiveled around on your chair.
"It's fine, you can go on ahead with Chaerin" you answered knowing she wouldn't want to wait up for you, she was just too polite to say so. "Thanks though"
She nodded with a bright grin. "No problem"
She looked up at you hesitantly. "You will go home right? You're not gonna stay here" she spoke up timidly. "Because you know they're gonna turn off the heating, you'll freeze. They're also turning off the gas for the stoves so you can't cook anything" she informed. "And I doubt you want microwave meals for your Christmas dinner" she informed.
You were reconsidering not even going back to your home area for the break because what's the point? You'd be alone there and here so at least if you stay here you don't have to go through the effort of packing a bag and traveling.
But after what Sowon told you, you decided to go against it. You didnt want to freeze to death.
"Yeah, you're right" you reply meekly.
"Good, I'd hate to see you waste your break because you're wallowing alone in bed" she admits.
"Thank you for caring So" you smiled gently.
"No problem gal" she winked before taking her duffel bag and slinging it over her shoulder.
She came over to you and grabbed your elbows and pulled you up to a standing position.
She then pulled you into a big, squeezy hug. "You're doing so good, I'm really proud. I know this isn't easy for you" she whispered and rubbed your back in soothing circles.
"Thanks So" you said awkwardly being touchy with that subject and all.
"Okay I'm going to go now and I'll see you when we are back I guess" she said, grabbing her bags, which you offered to help her with but she declined, and she gave a little wave goodbye before closing the dorm door without her.
You plopped yourself down on the bed and sighed deeply. You rubbed your eyes as they were feeling sleepy, and the soft comfort of your mattress didn't help.
"If I don't get up now, I'll fall asleep and won't get my project in" You said trying to give yourself a reason to rise from your bed.
After a few minutes of hyping yourself to get your ass off the mattress, you got up and you instantly felt the blood rush to your head. It took you a few moments to gain balance and once you did, you wished you were back on the bed again.
You shook your head none the less and picked up the project in your hands, ready to bring it to the main building called "college court" to submit it. You put on your coat and opened your dorm door.
You hesitantly checked down the hall to make sure you know who wasn't around anywhere.
The coast was clear.
You continued to make your way downstairs. You took the stairs and not the elevator because if you're on the stairs you can just zoom past certain people, whereas in the elevator you're stuck in a confined space with said certain people.
You had made it out of the building and all the way to college court safely and you handed in your project to your lecturer who politely similes and said "Happy Holidays" and you returned the greeting but no where near as enthusiastically as he said it.
You wandered outside and felt head rush overcome you again. Beginning to get a little worried, you looked around your surroundings and found an isolated bench not too far away.
You made your way over and sat down, putting your head in your hands that were perched up by your elbows on your knees.
You swayed slightly, hoping it might make you feel better and you blocked out every trace of light that you could see with your hands.
A few moments later you heard someone faintly talking to you.
"Y/n are you alright, do you want to lay down?" You know the voice.
"Jackson?" You murmured.
"Yeah it's me. You're looking a little pale, so I'm going to ask you to lie down on the bench okay?" You nodded and moved to lie down.
"I really don't feel well" you told him and he looked at you with such a caring nature.
"Is it nausea? or do you feel like you're going to pass out? Or maybe-"
"Both of those" you cut him off and he began to grow worried. You began to get up, thinking that maybe you need to walk around.
You opened your eyes and was stunned by the white clouds covering the sky and you felt your consciousness begin to go, especially when you stood up.
"Do you want me to call Jimin?" Is the last thing you hear before it's all gone to darkness.

Jimin looked over his room one last time, trying to see if he missed anything he wants to bring home.
He sighed and slung his bag over his shoulder, he has everything that he really needs anyways.
Locking the door of his dorm he readjusted the strap on his shoulder and began walking, but passing your dorm slower than everyone else's with the hope that you might just come out and you'd coincidentally bump into one another.
Unfortunately for Jimin that didn't happen.
He made it outside the building and began walking to the space where he parks his car.
He noticed an ambulance outside college court as he was passing but looked down after seeing it, not wanting to appear to be the type of person who snoops into other people's business.
He made it into his car and closed his eyes momentarily. Something was almost pulling him back to see if the people in the ambulance were okay, but he gave his thoughts a firm no. There were trained professionals there, they could do their job perfectly fine without him.

You woke up completely disoriented and confused. Your vision was blurry and your hearing was muffled.
You sat up confused.
"Hello there y/n" a friendly looking woman greeted. "You fainted about fifteen minutes ago and you began to shake out a little in the process, so your friend here called the ambulance and we got here as quick as we could" she said referring to Jackson.
The vehicle wasn't moving, it was parked close to where you fainted.
You turned your head to see him smiling worriedly at you. "Hey loser" he whispered.
"Hey dumbass" you gave a friendly smile. "So I had a bit of a seizure?" You asked and he nodded.
"Yeah, you scared the shit out of me" he said and you both chuckled.
"So am I going to hospital?" You asked.
"No you're not, you should be fine now" Jackson said, giving the answer the on-call Doctor gave him when he asked.
"I just need to talk to you for a little bit, can I ask you leave please?" She asked Jackson and he nodded politely.
He opened the back door of the ambulance to get out and you noticed you were still on college grounds.
They probably just wanted to keep you out of the public eye so that you're not embarrassed so they let you stay on the stretcher in the ambulance.
"So y/n I just want to ask you a few questions" she began. "Have you ever fainted before?"
"Ehm-, Yeah two years ago" you tell her, nearly shuddering at the thought of that situation again.
"And you don't have epilepsy?" She asked and you shook your head.
"And did you have a fit when you fainted two years ago?"
"I'm not sure, I don't think I did" you told her.
"And I'm not going to beat around the bush when it's clear that you're not eating. Would I be correct?" She said in a soft voice and you timidly nodded.
"Have you been diagnosed with any issues such as depression or anorexia?"
You shook your head.
"So what's the reason for not eating?" She asked.
"My appetite is completely gone, I'd say it started because of stress for school and then other stuff happened along the way so my appetite just never came back" you told her.
"I'm going to have to ask you to really start taking care of yourself, and I'm going to put you in for an appointment to see me after the holidays so I can check up on you, okay?" She asked while writing the appointment on a card.
"Okay" you answered.
"The small fit you had could be due to the lack of food, water and from the stress you said you had. Just be mindful of that"
"I will"
"Are you feeling better now?" She asked.
"Yeah, I am. Thank you" you said politely, really just wanting to get out of the vehicle.
"No problem, I'll see you when you come for your appointment" she smiled and you took the card she was handing you.
You left the ambulance and they drove away, leaving you with Jackson.
"I'm sorry fo-"
"Don't be, it's not your fault you fainted" he smiled.
Well not eating is kinda your fault, but he didn't know that.
"R-right" you chuckled. "Thank you by the way for helping me and calling someone for help"
"It was no problem at all y/n, glad I could help. And I was thinking that if you're going home today I could drive you down, I'll be going that way anyways" he offered. "You know considering we are neighbors and everything"
"I thought you would stay with your family for the holidays?" You asked.
"Well yeah I will, but I want to get some things from my apartment before I go" he said, clarifying your question.
You were hoping to just get a bus to the city and then walk to your old house and if Jackson drops you at your apartment it will take so long to walk to the house.
Jimin bought it far away for a reason.
"I'm fine, but thanks Jackson. Your offer is so sweet like always" you smile gently.
"But why not, we're going the same way" he pouted.
"Actually I'm going to visit a family member of mine" you lied, hoping he would drop it.
"I can drop you there"
"No, really it's-"
"Y/n when are you going to accept the fact that I'm bringing you home?" he asked, leaning up against the wall beside him. "I'm too nervous that something will happen to you again. I'm going to be closely monitoring you for awhile" he said squinting his eyes and holding up to fingers pointing them back and forth between your eyes and his.
You sighed and eyed him closely.
You really weren't getting out of this.
"Fine! But you can just drop me off at the cafe" you told him.
"Lava Java?" He asked as you both turned to go back to your dorm building.
"What other cafe you dumbass" you rolled your eyes with a small chuckle.

"My darling! I've missed you so much" Jiyun, Jimin's mother said while giving him a big hug.
He was only barley in the gate of the house and his mother raced out as he opened his car door.
"and where's my other darling y/n?" She asked with a big bright smile on her face, waiting for Jimin to go and open the car door for you as he always did, but he stayed still.
He remained silent, his voice choked on the words he had to say.
In the end, he didn't say the words. The tears that came to his eyes were enough to inform Jiyun of what happened.
"Oh darling" she whispered and pulled him back into the hug. "She's not coming is she?" Jiyun asked, lifting her sons chin up to look at his bloodshot, tears eyes.
He just shook his head and slowly fell to the floor and began to break into tears with his mother keeping him up in her arms as she knelt with him.
She never thought she'd see the day where you two were apart.
It doesn't feel real.
