I Wanna Hold You | JJ Project

Little JaeYoon

"You look funny. Your face is missing!" WonPil babbled while laughing loudly. His finger was directly pointed at Jae who simply raised an eyebrow at his friends statements. A small grin formed itself on Brian's lips. However, before the younger was able to notice it, he shifted his head toward WonPil again and tried to showcase a serious expression. He gazed at his two older friends right next to him, who wore a worried and serious expression as well. Not long after that, however, and a new smile formed on his face. A smile which he tried to suppress again but doing so became harder with every passing second. He knew that the current situation wasn't a laughing matter, however, the things his friend was telling under the influence of heavy drugs to take away his pain were so random and sometimes so ridiculous that it was impossible to keep a straight face. Even in a situation like this.

"We need puppies! Lots of them! I want puppies!" WonPil suddenly exclaimed. In an energetic motion he pulled the cover away and made an attempt to jump out of bed. This wasn't the first time the younger was trying to act out one of his random ideas since they arrived in the hospital so his friends were prepared. They instantly got a hold of him and pushed him back into the soft mattress. With doe eyes, WonPil stared up at his friends. Not long after, however, he began to mumble the next weird thing that just came to his mind. That new random thought didn't last for long, as only a few seconds later he began to whine like a three year old that he wanted a puppy. Now!

SungJin, who had stood to his friends right side by the bed, quickly patted the younger's head and told him in a very fatherly sounding tone of voice, that they will go get one once he's all better. This simple statement seemed to have the desired effect as the younger's face lit up instantly.

JaeBeom looked at WonPil with a worried expression and then turned his attention toward SungJin in a quick motion. As if he was worried the younger could hear him, he began to whisper to his oldest friend. "You can't promise him that! You know he's allergic. If he gets to close to any of those fluffy-"

"I know," SungJin interrupted JaeBeom with the same hushed voice, "but he won't remember this when the drugs wear off. Don't worry. As long as he stays in bed and keeps that arm of his still all will be okay. We've been through worse with him. Don't you remember the drum debacle?"

"I do, but I still believe that we shouldn't encourage him right now," JaeBeom said and took another worried glance at WonPil. The latter started to babble about balloons and weird colours now, which brought more than enough joy to Jae, who started to engage in a conversation with the other by giving him even weirder responses than the other originally came up with. This on the other hand encouraged WonPil's imagination to grew even wilder. WonPil enjoyed this very much as he grinned like a Cheshire cat while looking at Jae dreamily.

"My pink sweater! It's pretty! I need it now!" the younger suddenly said while frantically looking around as if he was hoping to see said sweater lying close by. When he wasn't able to spot the wanted object he turned his attention to Jae again. The blond haired man grinned evilly before replying to his friend.

"It burns in hell. I hope you said goodbye to it," he said, obviously enjoying the shocked expression on his friend's face. Tears began to form in WonPil's eyes. A loud whining emerged from the younger's throat. A few seconds later and he was crying loudly. Again the similarities with the behaviour of a toddler were pretty astounding.

SungJin, who quickly noticed the change of mood of his friend, tried to cheer him up again but to no avail. Even when Brian tried to brighten the younger's mood by offering random things the younger seemed to like did not help.

The four friends were now focusing on making WonPil happy again. JinYoung on the other hand just simply stood close to them and observed the whole situation. He felt out of place and the longer he was standing there he wasn't really sure why he came with the others in the first place. WonPil and JaeBeom were just two strangers he had met a few hours ago. He could have just gathered his things and gone to his friend's relatives place. However, for some reason he cared about this stranger. Still, it didn't change the fact that he was feeling awkward and weird standing next to WonPil's friends.
