than seok—hyun.

unfortunately, he can’t do much else than lay here and take it, considering he’s currently a patient. he fumbles with the remote, cranking the volume of the television up.

“i don’t know how i’m meant to pretend you’re not here when you insist on occupying the room with your gloomy presence.”

an annoyed sigh huffed forth, head thudding back against the pillows. he seriously needs a better emergency contact, although just anyone would be better ›

“you can barely take care of yourself,” riling up the omega has become a sport for seok—hyun who finds pleasure in seeing his reactions. phone is lowered to take a look at lee—han’s expression. “look, pretend i’m not sure. i don’t want to leave and then be called to come +

⠀⠀⠀spending an eternally—late evening at a quiet cafe, attempting to power through his latest bout of writer’s block. deadlines are fast approaching, and he doesn’t know how gracious his publisher will continue to be.

going to do. i’m already miserable enough.”

“shut 𝑢𝑝. hey——i’m not that clumsy, you know? i can totally take care of myself?” the omega’s eyes snap open one more, head turning on the pillows to shoot a glare over in the other’s direction.

“did you just come here to patronize me? leave, if that’s all you’re ›

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

“and risk being called again because somehow you end up back into a hospital bed? with how clumsy you are, it wouldn’t surprise me if you break the other arm trying to leave here.” he adds in a dry tone, though the faint twitch at the corner of his mouth betrays the amusement +

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

“so? go do them,” lee—han replies, his tone petulant. he wasn’t a child, as much as the alpha might insist it——he didn’t need to be watched over. in fact, he was just fine before seok—hyun barged in and acted all bossy.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

“i do.” yet most of it can be handle through the phone that’s unlocked in his hand, scrolling through messages, making sure to read over some emails —–whatever has to be handled in person can wait.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

“i was just gonna get a cab, or something … dunno.” a mumbled reply followed by a half—shrug, shutting his eyes as his vision briefly swims. “you probably have more important things to be doing.”

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

“are you planning to walk, while half sedated, all the way to the apartment?” head tilts, brow raised … refraining from throwing an obvious ‘idiot’ at the end of his sentence. lee—han knows how to irritate him.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

the tiny television mounted to the wall warbled away at a low volume, rain just starting to lightly patter the windowpanes. lee—han exhales slowly as he stares up at the ceiling, running his tongue over his teeth. “you can go. they’ll probably let me go in a little bit.”

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

humming in approval once the nurse walks away so that only the omega can hear ——impressed, for once he listens to him.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

underneath seok—hyun’s watchful eye, it’s almost impossible to shy away from the task——and soon enough, he’s slipping back into the blissful relief of the painkillers.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

arms crossed, he sits down on the chair by his bed, waiting to see if the omega will actually ask or back out.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

almost bashful as he hits the call button for the nurse——thankfully, it wasn’t his dominant arm that was injured.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

you’re in pain … this is why we are in the hospital, what do you mean—— just ask.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

i don’t want to be a bother. … but, i guess i can.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

are you going to ask for more painkillers or what?

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

… nobody. i was just going to tough it out myself.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

then who was coming, huh?

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

see, now you’re acting like you were required to come. you could’ve just said no and ignored it.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

i had to ask my assistant to look after woo—joo while i came here.

[‍ ‍ ( 𝓁𝐞𝐞 ) ‍ —— ‍ 𝘩𝑎𝑛. ‍ ∗ @oldspines]

… i don’t remember adding you to my——oh. nevermind. i guess i did, when woo—joo came around.

[* 𝒅𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒. @L0NGSHOTS]

no, the freaking hospital did.
