Summary: It's because of Junsu that Junho is sick. What else can he do to make it up to the younger member but to take care of him.
Disclaimer: I own Junho I do not own 2PM or ... anything
"Aiish I'm soaked to the bone." Junsu complained, water dripping from his clothes.
Junho sniffled, "I'm freezing."
The oldest looked at the youngest, the smaller boy shaking quite badly. If it wasn't for Junsu's persistence about making it home in the rain, they'd still be with the other members warm and dry. Junsu hadn't known that it was actually freezing rain. He had just really wanted to be home for the night. He was tired of not being able to be home for longer than an hour. He had dragged Junho along because the smaller boy seemed to have more energy than the rest of his dongsaeongs.
Junho coughed and sniffled again.
"Come on, let's get out of these wet clothes."
The smaller boy nodded, leaving small puddles as he headed towards his room. Junsu couldn't blame Junho, it was his own fault.
Junsu quickly got changed, throwing his wet clothes into the bathroom tub. He looked around the room for Junho but younger man's door was still closed.
Junsu knocked on the door. "Junho?"
The older boy opened the door to darkness. "Aiish..."
He flicked the light switch but the room remained dark.
"I told you guys to change the lightbulb... Junho... Where are you?"
The silence Junsu received was starting to make him angry. "Come on Junho this isn't funny, " he moved around the room.
He cringed when he stepped into a puddle. "Yah Junho!"
His foot came down on a soft, wet lump that coughed. Junsu raised a brow. "Junho?"
"H-hyung..." Junho whispered.
"W-what're you doing on the floor?"
Junsu pulled out his cellphone, flipping it open and producing light. He got to his knees in an instant as he saw Junho curled up on the floor shivering.
"Yah, why aren't you changed?! You're going to get sick!"
"I..." Junho coughed harshly.
Junsu grabbed the drenched boy and dragged him into the bathroom, leaving a slugtrail. Junho stood shivering as Junsu quickly stripped him, tossing his clothes into the tub with his own. He drew Junho into his arms and carried him into his room. He threw the younger boy into his bed, crawling in with him and pulling Junho close.
"Wh-what're you doing h-hyung?"
"Trying to warm you up. Hush up."
Junsu felt his cheek heat up as the half naked boy pressed closer against him. He wrapped his arms around Junho's shoulders, trying to cover the younger boy as much as possible.
"...ung..."
Poke poke.
"...uuuung..."
Junsu groaned, closing his eyes tightly. He shuffled but his movements were restricted. He opened his eyes to come face to face with Junho.
"..ung."
Junsu's brow creased. He watched Junho's lips as "hy-" came out silently before "-ung" came out wheezed. The older boy all of a sudden felt warm under the covers as he lifted them. Junho was still mostly naked. The cold air that snaked its way under the blanket gave the younger boy chills as he shivered. Junho was about to speak again when he squeaked.
"Y-ah..."
Junsu pressed his hand to Junho's forehead. The smaller boy was burning up, pretty badly too. The taller boy jumped out of bed, dashing to the bathroom and returning with a thermometer. He shoved into Junho's mouth and waited. The smaller boy looked at him with furrowed brows. Junsu pulled the stick from the younger boy's mouth. His eyes widened before he looked at Junho. Once again he dashed out of bed.
"What do I do Minjae hyung? He's burning up badly... He's coughing a lot and he has no voice!" Junsu paced the living room, his hand on his forehead.
"Take care of him. It's your fault Junsu. You've should've just stayed here. We won't be back until the day after tomorrow."
"Aiiish." Junsu hung up, clucking his phone tightly.
He ran his hand through his hair but paused when Junho cough. The smaller boy was standing in the doorway, still in his boxers.
"...ung.........dressed?"
Junsu nodded, "I'll get you some clothes, get back into bed."
Junho pointed to his room but Junsu shook his head. "No, go back to my bed."
The smaller boy nodded, turning and heading back into Junsu's room. The older boy grabbed a hoodie and trackpants and gave them to the younger boy. He let Junho sleep for a few hours before waking him up to take medicine. The youngest was back to sleeping in a matter of seconds.
Junsu sighed as he laid back on the couch. He didn't mean to make Junho sick. He felt guilty, which he knew he should have. He would have to make it up the younger member somehow. He went to bed shortly after checking Junho again. He hoped the smaller boy would be better by the next day.

Junho came into the living room carrying a loofah pad and a towel draped over his shoulder.
Junsu shook his head. "Oh no, I don't think so. You can take care of that yourself."
Junho pouted, letting the towel fall off his shoulder. He bowed his head and looked up with his eyes, a puppy like sadness playing on them. Junsu glared, the look intensifying as Junho's lip slowly started to stick out. The plump lip was final as Junsu set down his book.
"Fiiine." He rolled his eyes.
Junho jumped up and down, smiling and softly laughing. He was the happiest 19 year old who was going to get a bath. Junsu could hear his throat struggling to produce sounds and he frowned.
The oldest ran the water for the bath, letting a few drops of lavender bubble bath foam up the tub. He called for Junho as he shut off the water. The smaller boy skipped into the bathroom, undoing his bathrobe. The older boy blushed and looked away, handing Junho a small towel.
"Put this around your hips."
He felt the towel being snagged from his hand and Junho stepped passed him and into the tub. When the younger boy finally settled in the tub, he groaned, his voice squeaked from his raw throat. It felt good nonetheless.
Junsu looked around. "Where's the..."
Hearing the sloosh of water caused Junsu to look into the tub where Junho handed him the soaked loofah. The smaller boy smiled, trying to show him that he had soaped it up for him. Junsu took the sponge, dipping it into the tub and bringing it to Junho's back. He squeezed it, letting the water fall onto younger boy's skin. Junho arched his back and the still dripping water fell onto his head. Junsu started at Junho's back, working his way around from his arms to his chest. Junho smiled as he stuck his chest out proudly for Junsu to wash. Junsu chuckled, scrubbing down to his stomach and stopping. Junho blushed, lifting the towel away. Junsu dropped the loofah into the tub, turning his head away.
"No... Definitely not. You're not a baby."
Junsu suddenly felt the sponge in his hand again as well as another hand. He looked back to see Junho with that puppy look on his face again, this time the smaller boy was pleading against Junsu's hand. He tilted his head to the side and...
"Okay okay... Just... Stop doing that." Junsu pulled his hand away.
After this he would not let Junho use this look on him... Or atleast let it work. Junsu dipped the loofah into the water again, drawing it close to Junho's crotch. Junsu's cheeks burned red hot as he felt skin under his hand. Junho gasped slightly causing Junsu to look at him.
"D-don't look at me! L-look over there!"
Junho averted his eyes, looking at the wall. Junsu did the job quick before pulling his hand out of the water.
"Stand up."
Junho did so, wobbling at first as he leaned against the wall.
"Spread 'em."
Junho blushed, spreading his legs and keeping his face against the wall. Junsu quickly scrubbed up the small man's legs, carefully avoiding his thighs. He ran the sponge over Junho's bottom that he swore he missed it all together though he doubt he did. Junsu sighed, sitting back on his heels, soap covering from his hands to his elbows.
"Did I miss anything?"
The older boy hoped Junho would say no, this was awkward enough. To his relief, Junho shook his head. Grabbing the shower head, Junsu stood and turned the water on, washing the soap off the smaller man. Junsu averted his eyes as he moved the showerhead lower. Junho surprised him by rinsing his lower body by himself. He turned the water off, helping the smaller boy out of the tub.
Junsu handed him another towel. "For your hips."
Junho wrapped the towel around his torso as Junsu began patting him down. He turned a few times in the bathroom.
"Where are your pajamas?"
Junho's eyes widened as he slapped his forehead. Junsu sighed, catching Junho as he tried to run out of the bathroom.
"You stay here. I'll get your pajamas."
Junsu was about to leave when Junho caught his arm.
"I know I know. The blue ones right? With elephants on them?"
Junho smiled, nodding his head. Junsu returned a second later, shoving the clothing at Junho and closing the door. Junsu threw his own shirt to the floor as he riffled through his dresser and plucked out a clean one. It was like he had bathed a three year old. He wandered into the kitchen, deciding on making a cup of lemon tea for Junho and hot chocolate for himself. He grabbed a few snacks before setting down the mugs on the coffee table and plopping down on the couch. Junho emerged from the bathroom, taking a bit longer than Junsu would've thought. He watched as Junho slowly made his way out before darted towards the bedroom.
"Yah! Junho..."
Junho jumped, the door handle inches from his grip.
"I made you tea. Come drink it."
Junho whimpered, pointing towards the door.
"Before it gets cold Junho."
Junho pouted, walking to the couch slowly and plopping down. Junsu handed him the tea and he took it carefully. He didn't want to drop any in his lap. He took a couple sips of it, groaning softly as the hot liquid burned his throat. A
couple gulps later and the tea wasn't so bad. He sighed, holding the cup under his nose and sniffling. Junsu took the mug from him, setting it back down on the table. He pulled Junho into his arms, cradling him awkwardly.
"I'm sorry."
Junho looked up at Junsu, his eyes questioning the older man.
"I'm sorry I made you sick."
A gentle smile crept upon Junho's lips. He wrapped his arms around Junsu's neck, shaking his head and pressing a finger to the older man's lips. He made the 'O.K.' sign with his fingers and Junsu laughed.
"Okay okay."
He hugged Junho closer feeling him shiver, his rump gliding against his leg.
"Junho... Why are you not wearing underwear?"
Junho froze, his arms slipping from Junsu's neck, burying them into his lap.
"...Junho?"
Junho looked at the bathroom then at Junsu and pointed.
"Me?" he asked, looking at the finger pointing at himself. "What about me?"
Junho pulled at his pajamas then at Junsu. It took a minute to register but...
"Oh shit, I forgot to get you underwear."
Junho chuckled and nodded.
They sat in awkward silence before Junho coughed softly. Junsu leaned over, picking up the mug from the table and handing it to Junho. The tea was a little cold now.
"I'm sorry, do you want me to warm it up?"
Junho shook his head, downing the rest of the tea and making a sour face. Junsu smirked, trying not to laugh. He finished his tea before laying back on the couch. Junho leaned back, resting against Junsu's chest. Junsu slipped his arm around Junho's waist, his hand resting between his chest and his stomach. He could feel the harsh breaths Junho was taking in, exhaling through his mouth despite the pain. Junsu began feeling guilty again as he rubbed the smaller boy's back. Junho sneezed suddenly, jumping a bit in Junsu's lap.
"Let's go to bed..."
Junsu said, lifting Junho off his lap and standing. Junho sighed, he was sick of being in bed, though he was kind of tired. His thoughts were stopped when he felt Junsu's hand on his forehead.
"Your forehead is hot but the rest of you is cold. Must have been the bath. Come on let's go to bed."
Junsu pulled at Junho's arm but the smaller boy refused to move from the couch.
"Come on Junho... Don't fight with me. You're sick."
Junho slipped his arm from Junsu's grip, bringing his feet up as he sat back into the couch.
"This isn't funny Junho. Get up."
Junho ignored the older boy, looking forward.
"Lee Junho..."
The tone in Junsu's voice made the younger boy cringe.
"Listen to your hyung. You need rest."
Junho suddenly stood up, flailing his arms around and looking angry. His mouth moved, barely audible noises escaping from his raw throat. Junsu ducked a couple times, trying to keep out of the way of flailing limps. Junho began panting and coughing as he still tried to move around.
Junsu grabbed the smaller boy by his shoulders. "Come down, you're going to hurt yourself."
Junho pushed on Junsu's chest weakly before he collapsed into him and onto the floor.
"Junho! Junho!" Junsu sighed, sitting on the floor to hold the smaller boy. "I told you not to fight me..."
Junsu pulled the Junho into his lap, the younger whimpered and panted horribly.
"I'm taking you to bed now. No arguments."
Junho didn't shake his head or try to struggle as Junsu picked him up off the floor. His legs disagreed though as they fought to stay limp. Without warning, Junsu lifted Junho off his feet. The younger boy yelped, quickly wrapping his arms around the taller boy's neck. Junsu carried Junho into the room, throwing him on the bed roughly. Junho whined softly as he bounced on the mattress, bringing his knees to his chest as he looked at Junsu with guilt. As Junsu came around the bed, he pushed Junho until his back hit the pillow again. He pulled the covers over the smaller boy and tucked them under him.
"You. Stay here. If I see you move, if I hear the bed, if I see you out of bed, there will be a punishment. You hear me?"
Junho nodded, his eyes as wide as the sleep would let him. Junsu left the room only to pop back in a second later with a spoon, a cup and medicine in hand.
"Sit up." Junsu ordered.
The small boy sat up, pushing himself up against the mattress. He watched as Junsu poured the medicine into the spoon and brought to his face. He frowned, knowing he was going to hate the taste. Junsu glared when Junho didn't open his mouth right away. Junsu grabbed Junho's hand, gripping it tight.
"Open your mouth."
When Junho didn't comply, Junsu squeezed his hand. Junho gasped and Junsu stuck the spoon into his mouth. Junho groaned, not letting the liquid down his throat as he clamped his eyes shut.
"Just swallow it damn it. You're acting like a child. If your fans saw you like this..."
Suddenly the metal object was ripped from his grasp and thrown into his lap. An anger younger boy sat glaring at him.
"Did you swallow?"
Junho stuck out his tongue, keeping up his defiant attitude. Not liking this reply, Junsu grabbed the smaller boy's cheeks, prying his mouth open. When Junsu could see that he had swallowed, he let go, glaring at Junho. Junho felt his eyes sting a bit, glaring and blinking trying to make the tears disappear. He sniffled, biting his lip. He was not going to let any sign of crying appear. Just as Junsu reached out to touch the younger boy's face, Junho pushed him back and hid under the blankets. Junsu sighed, getting off the bed and leaving the room. Junho didn't move until he heard Junsu in the kitchen. He lifted the sheets away from his face, wiping the tears off his cheeks. He reached for the kleenex box, pausing but then grabbing the box and pulling it to the bed.
Junsu froze when he heard Junho blowing his nose. He wasn't going to punish the boy for blowing his nose so he continued to make another hot drink. He sat on the floor as leaned back against the couch. He felt bad for the way he had treated Junho but the younger boy had acted quite poorly for his age. A full hour went by before Junsu awoke from his daze. A chill ran up his spine from the cold floor. Goosebumps tickled his skin as he tried to rub them away. A light cough brought him out of his stupor as he looked towards Junho's room. He got up slowly, carefully walking towards the room. He peeked through the door, eyeing the small lump. Junho coughed again, the lump shaking then stilling again.
"Junho?" Junsu asked softly, popping his head in.
No answer.
Junsu swiftly walked into the room, stopping at the side of the bed. He leaned over, looking at where the moonlight gleamed onto the bed. It showed Junho's face, his hands gripping the blankets tight. The smaller boy was still sleeping, finally able to breathe through his nose. Junsu got to his knees, kneeling beside the bed. He sighed as he reached out and lightly stroked the smaller boy's cheek. He brushed the soft skin before putting a hand over his forehead. His temperature seemed to have had gone back to normal. Junsu felt his eyelids grow heavy and before he knew it, he could not keep them open any later as he fell asleep.
Junho breathed in deeply, arousing him from his sleep. He opened his eyes slightly, a shadowy figure was sitting in front of him. It caused him to jump, his eyes opening widely. When his eyes finally focused, he sighed, exhaling the breath he was holding. Junsu laid with his upper half on the bed, his legs probably asleep and cramped. Grabbing one of Junsu's arms, Junho pulled the oldest into the bed. He had a bit of difficulty pulling the larger man into the small bunk only made for one. Junsu groaned, waking up as he felt his legs being moved against his will. He moved, feeling softness under his face. When he finally blinked his eyes open, a dark figure moved beside him, pulling the blankets up to their necks and snuggling into him. Junsu wrapped his arms around the figure, it groaned in response.
"Thanks." He said smiling, allowing Junho to get comfortable under his arms.

"It's pretty quiet in here." Nichkhun said, stepping into their dorm after being away.
"They're probably still sleeping." Taecyeon dropped his bags softly onto the floor. It made the action pointless as Chansung allowed his bags to fall loudly.
"Well we should wake them up. I'm hungry." Wooyoung plopped on the couch, landing with the clothes and stuffed animals and cuddling them.
Chansung whipped open Junsu's door. "Hey get up sleepyhead! Time to-..."
He was cut off by the sounds of silence. "Where is..."
"Chansung... Over here..." Taecyeon said, sounding calm yet disturbed.
Chansung creased his brow, following Taecyeon into Junho's room. He popped his head into the room, tilting his head to the side.
"There's something you don't see everyday." Nichkhun whispered.
Taecyeon smiled. "Let's just let them sleep."
He shooed the younger members out of the doorway and closed the door, letting his hyung and dongsaeng sleep in peace.
