Normal Jimin is already super cute, and extremely tactile. Sick Jimin is like a labrador puppy, with a grip of an octopus, unaware of the level of his natural aegyo that he releases without warning, and extremely bad for Taehyung's little heart.

This is very indulgent, extremely fluffy VMIN ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ)

"Taehyung-hyung."

"Nooo, five more minutes," he mumbles, burying his face even deeper into his pillows.

"Hyuuuung,"

"Kookiieee," he whines, snapping his eyes even tighter.

"Jimin-hyung is sick."

Snapping his eyes open, and bolting straight on the bed, "What?!" he shrieks at the maknae who was covering his ears, sitting on his bed.

"He has a fever or something," Jungkook answers, wincing as he massages his ears.

"Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" he demands, pushing off his covers and sliding off his bed, where the hell was his fluffy slippers?

"I did!" Jungkook pouts, "I've been here for five minutes, you only responded a couple of seconds ago." he answers, throwing Taehyung's slippers at him with probably too much force.

Slippers on, Taheyung quickly ran out of his room, leaving his dongsaeng grumbling about, he was running-sliding in the hallway to Hoseok's and Jimin's room, in all his purple polka dotted pajama glory, probably having a really really bad case of bed hair, but he doesn't care. Throwing open the door with a large bang, his eyes focusing immediately on his soulmate's limp form on the bed, his back facing Taehyung.

"Chim??"

Jimin turns around to look at Taehyung, his cheeks flushed, and eyes a bit watery, he looks up at Taehyung, full lips pouting, and stretches both his arms, "Tae," he sniffs, "I sick." he sniffs, voice muffled from his cold.

BE STRONG KIM TAEHYUNG he mentally chants, he needed to prepare himself, while normally Jimin is already super cute, and extremely tactile, sick Jimin is like a labrador puppy, with a grip of an octopus, unaware of the level of his natural aegyo that he releases without warning, and extremely bad for Taehyung's little heart.

Taehyung bites his fist, and nods to himself, before approaching his boyfriend's bed, sitting down gingerly to not jostle Jimin too much, he runs his fingers through Jimin's blonde hair in the soothing motion he knows Jimin loves.

"Baby," Taehyung coos, bending down to place soft little kisses all around Jimin's face, and if human's could purr, he would have probably done that too. Jimin pats the bed, ordering Taehyung without words that he wanted him to lie down next to him, but Jimin's bed is a bit small, so he moves until his back touches the headboard, pulls Jimin so his upper body is draped across his lap, where the clingy baby immediately circles his arms around Taehyung, his head cushioned on Taehyung's stomach.

"Have you eaten?" he asks, glancing at the clock in the room that says 8:42 AM, and Jimin shakes his head, "No." he mumbles.

"You should eat Chim, you're running a temperature," he confirms, placing his palm on the dancer's forehead, "Then you can drink medicine."

Jimin just tightens his hold around Taehyung, and shakes his head again, "No, don't wanna."

"Then how are you gonna get better, hmm?" he counters gently, the last thing he wants to do is upset Jimin, because an upset sick Jimin? Taehyung shudders inwardly, dreading that particular scenario, he doesn't think even Yoongi stands a chance.

"But I don't want to," Jimin whines, voice muffled against Tae's belly. "I like it here," he sighs, pressing closer to Taehyung, "So soft, so hmmmm," he smiles lazily.

Taehyung looks up to the heavens, asking for more strength, swaying his closed fist a couple of times, before looking down at Jimin's face again.

"Jin-hyung can cook your favorite? How about that?" he tries, and Jimin's face falters a little bit, before shaking his head resolutely, "No."

"You won't even have to leave the room, I'll go down and get it for you." he suggests excitedly, not realizing until Jimin's face crumples that he said the wrong thing.

"No, Chim, baby, that's not what I meant," he begs, already rubbing his boyfriend's back to placate him, and stop the impending water works.

"Y-you want to leave me?" Jimin asks, voice shaking. "Tae's leaving me alone?" he wails, and then his whole body shudders, shoulders shaking and he cries.

"Why Tae, why?" Jimin asks gasping between his sobs, disentangling his arms from Taehyung's waist, and Taehyung panics, Jimin never voluntarily stops cuddling when he's sick. Never. It's a rule all the members know. And this is why he knows he fucked up big time.

Jimin sits up, hugging his knees to his chest, crying openly, as if his heart is breaking, and Taehyung kneels beside him, enveloping him in a tight hug, while rocking them back and forth.

"Chim, no! I would never." he promises, kissing Jimin's temple, "Forget what I said, I didn't mean that, I can just ask Kookie to bring the food here."

But Jimin just cries louder, "N-now you w-want Kookie here instead of m-me?" he wails, and Taehyung almost cries himself from his own stupidity, biting his lips, and blinking his eyes rapidly to stave off the already forming tears from his eyes.

He's always been one of those people who cry easily, even seeing some random people crying brings him to tears, but seeing his own sick boyfriend, crying because of him is too much.

"What the fuck did you do?" a gravelly voice interrupted his efforts from holding his tears, and he swears one tiny drop managed to escape, when he looks at Yoongi's worried form from the door. His tiny grumpy savior.

Hyung help he mouths to the elder, and Yoongi motions slicing off Taehyung's neck, and the younger audibly gulps from the threat. Sure, he and Jimin are dating, but Jimin holds a special place for everyone in the group. He's always been the sweetest, most caring member, ever since their pre-debut days, his energy infectious, his unlimited warmth, and generous heart managed to even thaw the usually stoic Min Yoongi, the grumpy rapper now acts like an over protective brother to Jimin, and Taehyung seriously fears for his life.

Yoongi walks towards the bed, sitting across Jimin, and he places a hand on the younger's shoulders, "Jimin?"

And Jimin sniffs loudly, clutching at his eyes, before turning to look at Yoongi, and dropping his head at his hyung's chest, clinging on to the rapper's shirt, "Hyung," he sobs, and Yoongi immediately circles Jimin in his arms, glaring at Taehyung, and Taehyung almost cries again at how quick Jimin left him for Yoongi.

"What did this idiot do now?" he demands, looking down at Jimin's face, though his expression is still soft. Soft Yoongi, only Jimin can do that.

"He said he's gonna l-leave," he sniffles.

"Why did he say that, Jiminie?" he asks softly, looking up at Taehyung, and mouthing you fucking owe me

"S-said he w-was," Jimin pauses, "getting food."

"Oh? And that food is for you?" Yoongi checks, and Jimin nods against him, before continuing, "Then h-he said, he's bringing Kookie here, am I n-not enough, hyung?" he asks Yoongi, voice breaking.

The look Yoongi gives Taehyung made him write his own dedication for his future tombstone in his head, 'Here lies Kim Taehyung, beaten to death by his Yoongi-hyung because of his stupid mouth, He will not be remembered.'

"But Jiminie, what this idiot probably meant is for Kookie to bring the food here, so he doesn't have to leave you alone." Yoongi explains patiently, and Jimin tentatively glances up, "Y-you think so, hyung?" he asks. And Yoongi nods affirmatively, "He might be a fool, but he's a lovesick fool. You know he loves you, right?" and at that, Jimin glances quickly at Taehyung, before snuggling deeper into Yoongi with a pout, and a grunt.

"Jimin, answer me." Yoongi orders softly, and Jimin sighs, "Yes, hyung, he loves me." he answers.

"Then why are you still pouting?" Yoongi asks, amused.

"Because I'm still mad," Jimin declares, but then his whole body deflates, and he slumps further down Yoongi's body, "But being mad is tiring, hyung. Jiminie's sleeping now." he mumbles sleepily against Yoongi's body.

"Aw, get some sleep Jiminie," Yoongi whispers, kissing the top of Jimin's head. "I'm gonna leave you to Taehyung now, is that okay?" Yoongi asks, and Jimin hesitates before nodding slowly.

He passes Jimin's body to Taehyung, whispering in his ear, "You're doing my laundry for 1 month, and you'll carry my luggage for 10 trips."

"Five," Taehyung negotiates.

"8."

"Deal."

Jimin wakes up after a couple of hours, he still has a fever, but not as hot as he was earlier. Jin has already brought up some water, soup and crackers, and placed them on the bedside table, moving in and out of the room quickly and quietly to not wake up the distressed Jimin, and for Tae not be accused of 'cheating' again.

"Chim, how are you feeling?" he asks, knuckles brushing against Jimin's soft cheeks.

"A bit dizzy, Tae." Jimin answers, scrunching his eyes shut.

"Ji-, uhm, there's some soup here, you have to eat some, it's time to take your meds." he coaxes, and Jimin nods slowly, and Taehyung feels like punching the air in victory. He carefully sits Jimin up, propping his back on the headboard for support, before giving him a couple spoonfuls of the soup, he manages to make Jimin eat a couple of the crackers as well. He thinks from the outside, they probably look like a mama bird feeding her chick, but that's all fine and dandy for Taehyung.

"Good baby," he coos, nuzzling Jimin's neck. "Now, just these two pills, then you can sleep again."

But Jimin shakes his head, pouting, "No, Tae. They taste bad."

"Please, Chim. It will be really quick," offering the pills, and the water bottle, and Jimin faces him, wide eyes turned down, lips pouting, pleading.

TAEHYUNG YOU CAN DO THIS, YOU'RE ALMOST THERE

"Even just one, Chim." He begs instead, holding out the Tylenol, but Jimin just pouts harder, eyes watering.

NO NO DON'T GIVE IN TAEHYUNG

And that's when he an idea struck him, he thought he was as smart as his Namjoon-hyung.

"Okay, Chim no medicine." he promises, "How about a kiss instead?" he asks, and Jimin's face lights up immediately, eyes curving into the famous eye-smile, before closing them and pouting his lips. He stops himself from pinching Jimin's cheeks, and instead places the pill between his lips, and pressing his lips flush against Jimin's.

He tries opening JImin's lips as soon as possible to push the pill into his boyfriend's mouth, but Jimin's warm lips, and even warmer mouth totally distracted Taehyung's valiant attempt at trying to make him feel better. They kiss lazily at first, soft open butterfly kisses, which Taehyung thinks might not be that sanitary since his boyfriend is sick, but he's had his flu shots, so he pushes away that thought immediately, and focuses on pushing the pill deeper into JImin's mouth, good thing he has a long tongue.

Jimin pulls back with a gulp, staring accusatorily at Taehyung, "You tricked me." he pouts, swallowing the medicine, but Taehyung just closes the distance once again, and kisses him until they're both gasping, mouths moving against one another, tongues touching, and Taehyung breaks the kiss with a soft nip at Jimin's full lower lip, touching their foreheads together, and panting softly.

"Tae, I'm sleepy again." Jimin whispers, giving another quick peck at Taehyung's lips. "Stay with me?"

Taehyung kisses him deeply, before answering, "Always."

And when Jimin's fever broke down, they were able to go down the kitchen together to eat, where Jungkook, and Jin were preparing dinner.

"Oh good, how are you feeling Jimin-ah?" Jin asks, wiping his hands on his apron, before approaching Jimin to check his temperature. "Good good, you're fever's down." Jin mumbles happily, squeezing Jimin's smiling face.

"How did you get him to take the medicine, hyung?" Jungkook asks curiously, Jimin was notoriously known for hating the bitter pills.

Jimin blushes, and Taehyung was sure his face was as red as his boyfriend, and Jungkook gags, "Nope. Nope." He says, shaking his head, "Don't answer. Forget I asked that. Nope." With one last forced smile at Taehyung, he continues chopping his onions, head bent in focus, but they can see that the the tips of the maknae's ears were red, and Jin whispers to the 95 liners, "I think you scarred him for life."

And Taehyung laughs, before pulling Jimin closer to him, and kisses his cheeks with a loud smack.

(°◡°♡).:｡

Because flu shots don't always work. (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡

Jimin was playing BTS Superstar when a voice interrupted his streak.

"You kissed, didn't you?" came Jungkook's flat tone from the door. Jimin glanced up to look at the maknae who had his arms crossed in his chest, frowning down at Jimin.

"Kissed who?" Jimin asks, confused, and frowned back at Jungkook.

"Taehyung-hyung, who else?" the maknae answers with a roll of his eyes, "Why? Were you kissing somebody else?" he demands, uncrossing his arms, ready to protect Taehyung, and Jimin laughs.

"Well you gotta be clearer, Kookie." Jimin says, "Coz Tae and I've kissed a hundred times, so why are you asking now?"

"Oh." Jungkook sighs, cheeks turning pink, but he meets Jimin's gaze head on.

"Coz now he's sick too."

"Oh."

"Yeah oh. Now please please Jiminie-hyung." Jungkook starts, closing the distance between them to grip Jimin's hands, "Can you both please hold off the kissing until Taehyung-hyung gets better so he doesn't return the virus to you?" he begs.

"Yah, it's not my fault you know," Jimin whines, "He tricked me into kissing him so he can force feed me my medicines." he pouts.

Jungkook looks up, seeming to ask the world WHY before looking back at his pouting hyung.

"Hyung, I didn't need to know that." he complains, "Now I'll never look at medicines the same way again." he shakes his head before looking intently at Jimin, "Now promise me hyung, no kissing until he's recovered."

"Okay." Jimin mumbles.

"I didn't hear you, Jiminie-hyung."

"Fine. I won't kiss him until he's recovered."

"Good," Jungkook answers smiling, "I'm just looking out for the both of you, you know that right? I don't like it when anyone of us gets sick." he continues, looking at Jimin a little worriedly.

"I know Jungkookie," Jimin smiles softly, "Thanks for taking care of your hyungs." he says, ruffling Jungkook's hair, "But, now can I go see my sick boyfriend?"

"I heard there's a ban on kissing now." Hoseok says, approaching Jimin.

"Just until Tae's better." Jimin explains, and Hoseok laughs with a nod, "Well good luck with that."

Before heading to Taehyung's room, Jimin went to their kitchen to reheat some of the left over porridge that Jin made for him. Ironic that it's now him, who's gonna have to feed Taehyung. He grabbed a couple of crackers, medicine, and some room temp bottled water, before walking to Taehyung's room. He can already hear the sound of a classic piano piece playing from inside the room, because Tae sleeps better listening to classical pieces.

He opens the door with as little noise as he can, in case Taehyung was asleep.

"Chim is that you?" Taehyung checks, and Jimin winces at how scratchy Taehyung's voice sounds like.

"Yeah, it's me Tae." he answers, walking towards his boyfriend's bed, he sees Taehyung twist around to face him, and Jimin asks, "I guess flu shots don't always work, huh?"

"It was a brilliant plan yesterday." Taehyung says, defending himself, and Jimin scratches at his own neck, as if feeling the ache from Taehyung's sore throat. He rummages through the medicines he brought, and feeds Taehyung a cherry flavored lozenge to help with the itch.

"I'm sorry that you got sick because of me," Jimin says, smiling sheepishly.

"It was worth it." Taehyung answers, pulling Jimin down on the bed with him, and Jimin settles down next to Taehyung, they were lying on their sides, face to face, one arm across the other's waist.

"So, Jungkook made me promise not to kiss you until you're better." Jimin shares, and Taehyung laughs, breath smelling like cherry. "And you know what's weird?" Jimin asks, grinning.

"What?" Taehyung asks.

"I really wasn't planning on kissing yoi,- oh don't give me that look - today, at least. But now that I've promised not to do it," he says, looking down at Taehyung's lips, "And your lips are right in front of me, it's the only thing I can think of." he admits, voice full of mischief.

"What exactly did you promise?" Taehyung asks, "Word by word."

"I said I will not kiss you until you're better," Jimin answers, eyes furrowed in confusion, "Why?"

"But he didn't say anything about me kissing you, is that right?" Taehyung checks, wiggling his eyebrows, and Jimin gasps, "No!"

And Taehyung giggles, already scooting from his pillow to close the distance, and Jimin lets out a giggle of his own, meeting Taehyung half way.

"I KNEW IT!" a voice screams from the doorway, and Jimin and Taehyung pull apart like they've been electrocuted.

The sound of hurried heavy footsteps, then there was Jungkook glaring down at Jimin, "Hyung you promised me."

"Well technically, Jimin didn't break any promise, since I was the one who initiated the kiss, which you so rudely interrupted before we even got started by the way." Taehyung says.

"Tae-hyung, stop talking. You'll damage your vocal chords." Jungkook nags, and Taehyung opens his mouth to answer, but Jimin elbows him in the stomach.

"We're really sorry, Jungkookie." Jimin tries, "I promise for real this time, and I'll even amend it! Not just now, but every time one of us is sick, we won't be kissing each other." Jimin says, elbowing Taehyung again when he tried to protest, and when Jungkook narrows his eyes at him, Jimin takes it up a bit more, "I swear on all my Ghibli collection."

"Woah." Jungkook and Taehyung say in unison.

"Have we got a deal, Mr. Jeon?" Jimin asks, putting up his pinky.

"Pleasure doing business with you, Mr. Park." Jungkook answers with a nod, before locking his pinky with Jimin's. "Now I can go back and continue playing Overwatch. Bye."

"That's a pretty big promise," Taehyung tells Jimin once the door is closed.

"It is," Jimin agrees, "But it's for the best. I don't really like seeing you sick like this." he explains, moving closer to cuddle Taehyung again.

"I have to get better soon," Taehyung says with determination, "I feel all itchy knowing I can't kiss you for an unforeseeable amount of time, and you're right here."

"That's exactly what I felt earlier," Jimin giggles. "Now c'mon, get some sleep. You can use me as your body pillow."

"Ah, I always sleep better when I hug a pillow," Taehyung answers happily, already moving to place his head on Jimin's chest, arms going around his waist, "But it's still the best when I sleep with you." Taehyung mumbles sleepily, snuggling further.

"I know baby," Jimin says, smiling fondly at his boyfriend, before placing a kiss at the top of his head. "Love you, Tae."

Taehyung exhales softly, fluttering his eyes close, "Love you too, Chim."
