Author's POV: 

Mr and Mrs Kim, both flinched hearing Taehyung's scream. They both looked at you both wide-eyed. 
"K-Kids... we can explain." Mrs Kim said as you gulped looking away while Taehyung held his chest trying not to collapse.

--Time skip 

"We thought you both weren't coming soon so we just... you know, the heat of the moment. You both should know that! You must've done it too.." Mr Kim said as you both awkwardly looked at them who looked at each other and then at you both.
"You both haven't?" Mrs Kim asked as you coughed awkwardly. She frowned and said, "How come..? I and your father just went over the moon on our wedding ni- I mean, we were definitely not that slow like you. You both are so old-fashioned.." 

You just gulped and looked down as Taehyung said, "Mom, dad... I feel like puking right now. Please stop.." 
Mr and Mrs Kim sighed as Mr Kim said, "Okay then. You both go and sleep. Don't interrupt us." 
You gulped and looked away awkwardly as Taehyung shut his eyes saying, "Please! Leave!!" They both smirked and left leaving you and Taehyung alone.
"Don't mind them... I don't know why we had to see that." He said as you nodded. 

"I'll go sleep.." You said and went towards your room as he nodded. You stopped in front of the door and turned around saying, "Goodnight. Sleep well. You can... call me if there is rain." 
He smiled a little and nodded waving at you. 

---2 weeks later

You sighed and sneezed once again for the 1938th time today. It was monsoon already and you got wet yesterday while going to a job interview. Since then, you were sneezing quite often and felt cold.
"I might have a cold.." You said and sneezed again. The maids in the house looked at you and sighed. Your sneezes shook the entire house. You got up and warmed up some water, drinking it. 
Looking at the time, you wondered why Taehyung wasn't coming home. It was 6:30 already. 
"Thank god, there are no thunderstorms these days... or Taesshi would've been in trouble at work." You said to yourself and sighed.

Suddenly, you heard the doorbell and a smile appeared on your face. You got up and walked towards the front door to see Taehyung entering. 
"Hi!" He said, waving at you as you waved back. He sat on the couch taking off his socks as you said, "Mmm... how come your socks never smell?" 
He frowned at your strange question and asked, "Why? Do you want them to smell?" 
"No... I mean, it'd be very funny if they did." You said as he sighed.

"Weirdest questions you have.." He muttered and walked saying, "Here, take this. I bought some ice cream on the way back." 

"Ice cream?!" You asked getting all excited as he smiled nodding.
"Ooo~~ for me?" Your question made him look at you blankly as he said, "It's for our neighbour's dog. Wanna give it to him?" 
"Thank you for the ice cream, I'll eat it well~" You said and took the bag from him, running away as he sighed chuckling.
"Dumbhead.." He mumbled and smiled. 

--Half an hour later

You coughed a little, feeling your throat sore as a sigh escaped your lips.
"Did I eat too much ice cream? I already had a cold.." You said to yourself, sneezing again. You sighed and focused on your kdrama while sitting on the bed. 
"Why is he running in the rain for her? She doesn't even like him back!" You groaned and sneezed again making you sigh. 
"My stomach's hurting.." You grumbled, lying on the bed. You kept watching the drama until your eyes felt heavy and without realizing it, you fell asleep. 

--Time skip || 8 pm 

Taehyung frowned looking at the time. It had been an hour since you didn't come out of your room. He was bored and confused at the same time. You never spent over 30 minutes inside your room without coming out at least for a second. 
"Is she eating or sleeping?" He asked himself, wondering about the possibilities. A sigh escaped his lips as the cook spoke, "Sir, what should I cook for dinner tonight?" 
"Wait, let me ask your ma'am." He said and walked towards your room. Knocking twice, he waited for a while but got no response.

Frowning he knocked again saying, "Y/N?" 
Hearing no response from inside, worry arose in him. He twisted the doorknob to find the door unlocked. Upon entering the room, his tensed face was put to ease as he saw you sleeping. He smiled a little and walked towards you saying, "Y/N, wake up. It's not the time to sleep." 
You hummed a little, moving uneasily as he leaned closer to you. 
"Is she sick?" He asked himself and checked his forehead before checking yours. It was warmer than usual making him frown. 

He went out of the room and asked one of the maids working there, "What's wrong with your ma'am? Is she sick?" 
"Ah, she has been sneezing and coughing consistently since morning. You were away for work early in the morning so you might've not known." She spoke as Taehyung sighed saying, "And she ate the ice cream? Ah... why did I even buy that?" 

He walked back inside, eyeing you as he spoke, "Ate ice cream after being sick all day? What a courageous woman! Now, who will nurse you all day long?" 

"When are mom and dad coming back?" He asked the maids who said, "Mrs Kim and Mr Kim left the house at 3 pm and were supposedly coming back at 8 pm. It's almost 8:30 now, they should be back soon." 
"Okay. You all can go after finishing your current work. Take your paychecks tomorrow since it's the start of July." He said as the maids nodded, bowing. 

He went to find some medicines but did not find any. He sighed and spoke, "I can't even leave her alone. Let her heal once, I'll beat her up for having more ice cream."  
He sat beside you and checked your temperature, 101°. He took the blanket and covered you with it, turning off the drama. He caressed your head, looking at you who were sleeping. A while passed by as he heard the doorbell. 
He got up and took his wallet, walking towards the front door to see his mom and dad.
"Guys, please stay home and watch over Y/N. I'll be back." 

He walked out leaving the elders confused.
"What just happened..?" Mrs Kim asked as Mr Kim shook his head, confused. 

---Time skip 

Taehyung rushed inside the house with medicines and got some water from the kitchen, running inside your room. He sighed seeing Mrs Kim sitting beside you as you were sleeping. 
"Was she sleeping all this time?" He asked as Mrs Kim nodded saying, "She has a cold... and slight fever. Maybe it's because she got wet yesterday. I shouldn't have left, poor baby.." 

She patted your head slightly and got up saying, "Take good care of her, I'll cook some dinner. You sent away the cook anyway." 
Taehyung nodded and sat down, taking out the medicines. 
"Y/N, get up." He said, shaking you a little as you frowned a little in your sleep. He made you get up a little and gave you the medicines which you put in your mouth and were about to lie down but he spoke, "No! Swallow it with water! You'll choke and die!" 
You groaned and swallowed them with some water that he fed you. He helped you lay down and covered you properly as you fell asleep again. 

"Eat more ice cream. You should've eaten 2 more boxes, why did you eat so less?!" He asked, scoffing. You moved a little in your sleep as he sighed, fixing the blanket, making sure you don't feel cold. 
"What a dumbhead I've married... how can someone be so dumb to eat ice cream even after having a cold?!" He asked shutting his eyes in frustration. 
"Once an allergy, then a cold... how many times should I take care of your dumb head?" He asked in a low voice, chuckling. You shook your head in your sleep as he smiled. An urge to kiss your forehead arose in him as he shook his head, gulping. 

He waited for a while until he saw you moving your head. You slowly opened your eyes to see Taehyung staring at you, tensed. 
"I.. *cough* what are you doing here? *cough* Ouch.." You coughed and spoke in a sore voice, feeling your head hurt a little. He just sighed sitting there and spoke, "101° fever, cough, sneezing, sore throat, headache. You should eat some more ice cream, should I bring some more for you? Chocolate flavour sounds good?" 

You pouted a little, feeling sad about his scolding. You would always get sad by the littlest things when you were sick and his sarcasm wasn't helping at all.
"S-sorry.. *cough*" 

Taehyung sighed and asked, "Are you sad now? Why did you even- Ah.. fine, I won't nag you. You should know how to take care of yourself better." 
"You were the one who got b-bash- *cough* bashed.. for having ice cubes and water when you had flu." You said as he stared at you for a while before sighing.
"I shouldn't let my mom talk to you. She always tells you the worst stuff." He said and sighed. You smiled a little but looked down sighing. 
"What do I do now..? *cough*," You asked as he patted your head saying, "Don't worry. I'll take care of you. Just be obedient, okay?" 

You nodded as he smiled. 
"Do you want porridge because that's the only thing I'll let you eat right now?" He said as you shook your head saying, "I... *cough* want chocolates." 
"After your fever gets down." He said as you sighed.
"Why do you think I'm talk- *cough* talking if I wasn't okay?" You asked. He nodded and said, "Stop talking then. You're coughing too much. I've called the doctor, he said he can't come even though I offered him an additional payment. He'll come tomorrow so you have to bear with this for now." He said as you nodded, looking down. 

"Are you sad?" He asked as you nodded, looking at him. 
"Should I accompany you tonight?" He asked as you looked at him a little surprised, not knowing what to say. He'd be accompanying you tonight?
