Second Chances

~Sixteen~

Six weeks later

Y/n hasn't seen Zuho in four days. She misses him like crazy but they are at the end of their first week of promotions for their new album. He started his drama a little over a month ago and it also takes up a lot of his time. He tries to text her a few times a day and calls her at least once, but she has barely seen him in weeks. But she knew this. He had been upfront about it all and didn't give her false hope as to how much they'll get to see each other. She didn't think it would bother her as much as it is. She's sitting on her couch scrolling through Twitter when his name appears on her screen. She smiles and clicks accepts and his tired face comes in on the screen. "Hey baby" he says softly. "Hey. You look so tired." He nods but keeps his gorgeous smile. "I am tired. I'm running on five hours of sleep in the last three days. I had a little time during the dinner break and wanted to call you. I miss you." Y/n's heart tugs at how sweet he's being but how tired his low sexy voice sounds. "If you have some time then try to close your eyes. Call me another time. It's fine." He shakes his head and closes his eyes for a moment. "Nope. I wanted to see you some way." She watches him for a moment, admiring how manly and sexy he looked in the white button down he was wearing. She thought he fell asleep but he slowly opened his eyes and smiles. "Zuho...try to sleep. Please? I'll just hang up on you if you don't hang up and sleep a bit." He tiredly chuckles. "I'll hang up and take a nap if you tell me you miss me." She smiles at how freaking sweet this sexy man was. He really was more of a baby than the idol with so much sex appeal that he portrays. "I miss you baby. So so much. And once you're done with everything and have some free time, I'm going to show you just how much I've missed you all these weeks." He smiled big. "Mmmm....thank you baby. I look forward to that." "Ok, now hang up and take a nap." He closes his eyes and nods. "Ok. I'll call you tomorrow when I can." They say their goodbyes then end the call. She rests her head back in the couch, really missing him.

The next day she was in the gym with Keeho, Soul, Theo and Intak making sure they did their daily workouts. She wasn't feeling the best today so she was going soft on the guys. She was sitting across from Intak as he did leg presses. "You ok noona? You look pale." She chuckles. "Thanks a lot. I'm fine. But apparently I need more sun." Intak laughs and shakes his head. "That's not what I meant. You look like you don't feel good." She sighs and shrugs. "I'm tired today and just feel like blah. But I'm ok. Count yourselves lucky because me not feeling great is giving you all an easier workout." The guys laugh and continue with their workout. "Noona? Hey, Noona, wake up." She flutters her eyes open to the concerned face of Intak. She looked around groggy. "You fell asleep. How you can do that with music blaring and sitting up is beyond me though. You sure you're ok?" She nods and stands. "I'm fi-" she suddenly feels dizzy and her mouth starts to water. "Noona?" She puts her hand over her mouth and stumbles to the closest trash can. She throws up breakfast and then dry heaves for another few minutes. She hears Intak yell something and then stands by her, rubbing her back and holding her hair. She feels dizzy and sick. She sighs and leans her head back. "I really only felt tired earlier. I don't know what that was." "Just sit here a minute" he says, concern on his face. A few minutes go by and she feels the urge to throw up again and points to the trash can. Intak grabs it quickly and she leans over it dry heaving into it, having nothing left to throw up.

Yeji runs in with the boys behind her. "The littles said you were sick. What's going on?" Y/n shrugged with her head back again. Sweat shining on her forehead. "I don't know. I just felt tired this morning. Then I threw up and felt dizzy. I must be coming down with a bug." Yeji looks at her worried. "I think you should go home and rest for today. And if you still feel bad tomorrow, take another day. I'll drive you." Y/n shakes her head. "I can drive myself, I drove my car here." "Then I'll drive you in your car and have a manager follow me to bring me back. Ok?" Y/n knew better than to argue with her so she nodded. The guys helped her to stand and Intak grabs her bag and walks beside her in case she gets dizzy again. Once in the garage he asks, "do you want me to call Zuho sunbaenim, Noona?" Y/n looks at him wide eyed. "What? Why would you call him?" He shrugs as he throws her bag in the back seat. "I'm not stupid Noona. I know you too well to not be able to notice you both." She feels her cheeks heat up. He opens the passenger door and she sits down. He leans down and reassures her, "I haven't said anything to the other members. And I won't. It's not anyones business. I just didn't know if you wanted him to know you are sick." She shakes her head. "No, I'll call him once I'm home. He's insanely busy with his drama and promotions. I don't want to get him all worried because I have a stomach bug." He nods. "Ok. Well...rest noona. See you soon." She smiles. "Thank you, see ya."
