hayeon heard a knock on her door minutes after the rest of her friends had left and immediately let out a sigh. she was in no way prepared to deal with sunghoon in the physical state that she was in, but she had no other choice.

"come in," she reluctantly called out, her voice hoarse from the sore throat she had developed that morning.

slowly opening her door, sunghoon entered hayeon's room with a cup of tea in one of his hands. he looked unsure of what to do when he reached the girl's bed, glancing around for space to put down what he had brought her.

shoving aside the items occupying her nightstand, hayeon gestured for sunghoon to put down the cup he was holding and sit on her bed. while his presence truly did fill her with anxiety, she was too exhausted to think ahead and realize how close that would put him to her. hayeon just wanted him to leave so that she could sleep.

"are you feeling okay?" sunghoon asked, his fingers playing with the fabric of her bedsheets. his voice was filled with concern that hayeon didn't expect, causing her to sit up slightly and attempt to clear her head so she could fully process her situation.

"do i look like i feel okay?" hayeon laughed, knowing she always looked like an absolute mess whenever she was ill.

"sorry," sunghoon apologized, "that was a stupid question."

"it's fine hoon," hayeon replied, "and thank you for the tea."

nodding back at the girl's words, an uncomfortable silence settled between the two, making hayeon's nerves even worse.

"why did you stay here?" hayeon finally broke the silence, unable to get the question out of her mind. what sane person chooses to stay home and risk getting sick rather than going to a literal amusement park?

"because i didn't want you to be alone," the boy responded, causing hayeon to tilt her head in confusion.

"you told me once that you don't like to be alone, that you get sad when you're not around other people," sunghoon explained after seeing her expression. "i didn't want you to feel that way, so i stayed."

he shrugged after his last sentence, like what he was saying was nothing, but hayeon could feel herself breaking down. she didn't know if it was her sickness or what, but the girl immediately fell apart inside at what sunghoon had said.

while she tried her very hardest not to cry, she felt a single tear escape her watering eyes, falling slowly down her cheek.

"hayeon?" sunghoon shot up, alarmed by her reaction to his words. "are you okay? did i say something wrong?"

"i'm fine," she sniffled, trying to hold back her emotions.

not looking convinced, sunghoon sat still and waited for a further explanation, needing to understand why hayeon had started crying.

"i'm fine!" hayeon insisted again, attempting to put a smile on her tear stained face.

"could you please just leave for a little bit?" she asked, becoming increasingly embarrassed by the second at how easily she had teared up. "i want to try and get some rest."

nodding in agreement, sunghoon stood up to leave despite the fact that he wasn't convinced by hayeon's reply.

"let me know if you need anything, okay?" he said before gently closing her door, more confused than ever.
