~~~~~Jeongguk

"No... Please... I'm sorry..."

The bed is shaking, and I hear her quiet pleas. Opening my eyes slowly, I take in the scene in front of me, and sit up quickly. Haerin is thrashing back and forth in the bed... She's crying and begging for mercy from whatever is in her nightmare.

"I didn't mean it... I'm sorry... Oppa please don't.... Aaaaaahhhhh!"

When she lets out a blood curdling scream, I reach for her shaking figure. My hands take ahold of her arms, and she panics, completely losing it. She's yelling apologies, and begging not to be hurt anymore. My heart feels like it will beat out of my chest, but I pull her into my arms, and hold on tight. Her little fists keep striking my chest and arms, but I just continue, and speak quietly to her. Calling her name and telling her to wake up, she starts to settle. Dissolving into quiet sobs, I feel her tense in my arms.

"It's ok baby... I'm here... You don't need to be afraid anymore Haerin..."

"what if he finds me? he'll kill me... i'm so scared... please don't leave me again... i'm so sorry i met him... i'm so sorry jeongguk..."

I pull her to straddle my lap, and bury my face in her neck. I just whisper that he won't find her, and I'll never leave again. Guilt at knowing I'm actually going to have to leave in a few weeks, eats at my gut. A piece of me knows that if she needs me to stay, I will, with no hesitation. The tour is important, but she is more so. Her quiet cries become whimpers, and she is clenching her fists on the pillow behind me.

A light knock is heard, and then footsteps on the stairs. I look to see Naeun Noona carrying a tray with some food, and Ye-Jun following behind. Our son climbs into the bed, and I hear Haerin whimper again.

"Mama? What's wrong?"

Ye-Jun reaches and touches his mother's hand, making her flinch. I know she doesn't mean anything by it, and she's still lost in a place of misery. I smile to Ye-Jun, and put my arm around him, pulling him into a side hug.

"Don't worry Ye-Jun-ah... Your Mama isn't feeling well, and had a nightmare."

"Another one? I'm sorry Mama... I should have protected you... Please don't be sad anymore..."

I grind my teeth to not let the heart wrenching sob escape after hearing his words. Naeun is now on the other side of the bed, climbing in to check Haerin. I watch her while she takes her temperature with a touchless thermometer, and frowns. She stands and goes to the bathroom, bringing out a bottle of fever reducers.

"Is the fever high Noona?"

"Mhmm... I'll make some soup. Give her the tablets with some water."

I nod, and she calls to Ye-Jun to come help her. He kisses the shoulder of his mother, then clambers off the bed to follow his Aunty. Haerin begins shivering, so I pull the duvet tight around her body. I realize how high her fever must be, when I feel myself begin to sweat being against her. I kiss her forehead, and move her hair. The back of her hair is soaked from sweat, and my lips feel like they touched a hot iron. My poor baby...

"promise me..."

"What baby?"

"you won't leave me... promise me jeongguk..."

I continue to rub her back gently, and kiss her temple with a small smile on my face. I want to promise her... I would mean every word... But, what if my job makes me a liar?

"Haerin-ah... I love you so much... I won't ever leave you... But I might have to go away for work sometimes... You understand, right?"

She just whimpers and burrows into my chest. I feel the tears falling, and I can only hold her tighter. I don't know what to do, or say in this moment. She's not the only one who is scared right now, and I blame myself for all of it.

"Please don't cry baby... I'm so sorry I messed up back then... I never thought... Hae, It was never my intention to leave and not come back... Please Haerin-ah... I'll do anything to have your forgiveness... Anything to have you trust me again."

"i forgive you... i... i... i love you..."

"I love you so much. I've only ever loved you! I wanted you all the time, and I regret everything. Haerin, you have to believe that."

"don't cry jeongguk-ah... i believe you."

I hadn't realized that my tears were falling until she said it. Laughing sadly at our situation, I place soft kisses on her jaw and neck. We cuddle together under the blanket until Naeun Noona arrives with the soup she made. The smell makes my stomach grumble, and Haerin actually giggles.

"If all I have to do to make you laugh, is be hungry, then I'm never eating again..."

We both chuckle, and Noona sets the soup on the side table. She gives us a scolding glare, but can't quite hide her smile.

"Jeongguk... Did she take the pills yet?"

"No... Sorry Noona. We were talking, and forgot. She'll take them after the soup. Promise."

She nods and leaves us alone. I'm sure she could tell we were both sad, and wanted to give us time to continue talking. Forcing Haerin to sit a little away from me, I pick up the bowl with the soup. She watches me with a pout at being apart, but I scoop some of the broth and hold it in front of her mouth. Staring at her plump lips, I begin to nibble on my own to stop myself from kissing her.

"Come on baby... Eat the soup."

She opens her pretty mouth, and I put the spoon between her lips. Damn it... I can't get turned on right now. We continue until the bowl is empty, and I place a kiss on her lips. Her blush makes me happy, and I hug her to me, kissing her temple.

"you're going to get sick jeongguk... no kissing."

I giggle and pinch her cheek gently.

"I don't care... I want to be here with you anyway."

"you have a concert though... i don't want to be the reason you can't be there. i feel guilty enough."

"Haerin... Baby... You have nothing to be guilty about! I'm a grown adult, and if I want to kiss you, and catch whatever you have... I will do it!"

Saying that, I kiss her passionately, and groan at how good it feels to move our lips together. Like pieces of a puzzle finally fitting together after searching for hours. Her cute hands move into my hair, tugging at the roots. I can't hold the moan, but don't push my limits. When we are both out of breath, I rest my forehead on her burning one, and stare into her twinkling chocolate depths.

"jeongguk... you have a concert... your fans will be sad if you're sick... me too."

"Baby... Thank you... My fans would love that you're thinking of them... I love them, but not as much as you... Noone, and nothing, can make me as happy as you do..."

We stay like this, staring into each other's eyes. Her eyes are glossy from unshed tears, and fever. I would stay like this forever if people would let me. Unfortunately, Naeun Noona, and now Jin Hyung, appear in our room.

"Haerin-ah... You need to take the medicine! I can't believe you Jeongguk... I told you to make sure she took them... Tsk..."

"Nana... Don't be too hard on the boy... He's in love. I would get lost in your eyes as well."

Haerin and I both giggle at Naeun Noona's blushed cheeks. She turns into Jin Hyung's chest, and he just grins at me. I wink at him, and grab the fever reducers for my girl.

~~~~~Haerin

His arms are so strong and comforting. My memory is like swiss cheese again, but waking up wrapped in Jeongguk's embrace helps. The sound of his heart thrumming in his chest, makes me blush a little, but I feel my own matching the rhythm. I must have had a nightmare again with the anxiety I'm feeling.

My whole body is aching, and the hoodie I'm wearing is damp from sweat. I gently remove Jeongguk's arms, and move away to get out of the bed. The sunset is beautiful and paints our room in oranges and purples. I stand at the window, enjoying the view and wonder what I did to be this lucky. A feeling that it will be snatched away as soon as I get comfortable makes my heart ache. Arms snake around waist from behind, and Jeongguk's raspy voice blesses my ears.

"You ok? You're shivering baby."

I hadn't noticed until he mentioned it, but I am freezing. The damp sweatshirt and the loss of body heat after getting out of bed, have turned my skin to ice.

"Let's go... You need to change out of this hoodie... A warm bath should warm you up."

He maneuvers me towards the en suite, and I let him. His cologne hits my nose, and I feel a warm hand on my cheek. Everything seems like slow motion as he tips my face up and lays his lips on mine. The butterflies in my tummy become active as he lifts me effortlessly into his arms. Before I know it, he sets me on the sink counter and pulls away. I begin shivering as soon as he moves his warm body away, but I don't complain.

He turns the tap to the bath on, and throws a mint and eucalyptus bath bomb in the steaming water. The scent immediately calms me, and goes to work on my stuffy head. I watch in awe as Jeongguk gathers the bath sponge, and a couple towels. His back muscles flexing has me rubbing my thighs together.

"Baby... The tub is ready... Do you want me to leave you for privacy, or"

"No... Stay... Please..."

I can feel my face burning as he turns to me with a dirty smirk. He drops his sweats and boxers before moving to me again. He is fast to pull the sweat soaked hoodie off me. I tremble with the air hitting my naked body. His strong arms lift me from the counter and he takes my panties off quickly. He chuckles as I circle my legs around his waist, but doesn't respond to my attempt to turn him on.

"Later Haerin... Let's get you cleaned up, and feeling better..."

"Sorry..."

"Don't be... I want you all the time... But we need to take care of your health... Ok?"

"Hmmm"

He sinks down into the tub, and I feel my body relax immediately. It's hot and the steam begins to clear my head. His long fingers massage my shoulders and I drop my head onto his chest. The sponge in his hand begins to rub circles on my back causing a sigh to escape my mouth. He continues to wash my body, and I let him, enjoying the way he pampers me.

"Turn around baby... Let's wash your hair."

I move into a position with my back facing him. He turns on the handheld sprayer, and wets my hair. He begins massaging the shampoo on my head, and I can't contain the light moan. I've always loved having my scalp massaged. When he's finished, he rinses my hair thoroughly.

He suddenly sneaks an arm around me, pulling me back onto his lap. I feel his erection against my ass, and his hand goes to tease my nipples. Sighing at the way he touches me, I lay back against his firm chest. Another hand makes it's way to my pussy, and he slides his magic fingers through my folds. Circling my clit in an agonizingly slow pace, I moan and push back against him.

"Does that feel good?"

I nod aggressively, losing myself in the warm sensation of his hands. My legs are spread wide in invitation, but he just continues his slow ministrations. I feel the knot in my belly tightening, and I grind my hips into his hand, trying for more friction. I want him inside me, but he doesn't change his tactics. His mouth starts to nip and suck on my neck at the spot under my ear.

"Aaaahhh.. Jeongguk... Please...."

"Just relax baby... Enjoy it..."

His voice is deep and I know he's holding himself back to give me all the pleasure. I feel my legs begin to shake as my orgasm is close, and he just continues his pace. A pinch to my nipple causes me to moan and throw my head back. His fingers expertly massage and stimulate my clit at the same time.

"I.. I'm... aaaahhhhnnn... Jeongguuuk..."

A sinfully, loud moan escapes as I cum hard. My whole body is shaking as he continues to help me ride the wave of pleasure. When I've stopped trembling, he removes his hands and turns me to share a deep kiss. His tongue invades my mouth, swirling with my own. We aren't fighting against each other, just dancing... Tilting my head to deepen the kiss, I cup his face in my hands. When he separates with a groan, our mouths connected by a string of saliva, we pant staring into each other's eyes.

"I've never wished I could live without breathing baby... But kissing you, makes me want it to never end... What you do to me Haerin-ah..."

I smile, shy at his words, but wrap my arms around his neck and bury my head in the crook of his neck to hide my blushing cheeks. Chuckling at me, he lifts me with him while he stands from the water. His muscles flex against me, and I can't help but wrap my legs around him again. Moving my hands over his shoulders and down over his chest, he grins at me.

"Am I sexy Haerin?"

"You know you are... My sexy bunny..."

His laugh makes my heart pound because I've missed hearing it. He wraps towel around my figure as I cling onto him. He walks quickly to the bed and drops me down, crawling over me.

"Bunny? Really Haerin?"

His intense eyes are shining with mischief, and I can't contain my giggle.

"Well, baby... You know what Bunnies are good at, right?!?"
