Work Text:
The sound of the machine beeping fills the silence in the room. Four bodies are sprawled on the sofa near the patient bed, seemingly deep in sleep.
Eunho opens his eyes slowly, unfamiliar with the interior of the room he is currently occupying. The harsh light from the ceiling causes him to squint his eyes uncomfortably.
‘Am I in the hospital?’
He grunts as he slowly pushes himself to sit. He can feel the numbness in both of his arms, causing him to lose his balance and collapse. Eunho groans, immediately ceasing his attempt at sitting. The rickety sound of the bed echoes in the room.
A soft mumbling sound can be heard as Bamby rubs the sleepiness in his eyes. He yawns loudly, eyes scanning the patient bed, “Eunho? Are you awake?"
“…Bamby-hyung?”
Bamby stands up abruptly, accidentally pushing the man that was leaning on him and waking up the rest of the room’s occupants. Yejun rubs his eyes as Noah yawns. Hamin stretches his limbs, joints popping from a prolonged lack of movement.
Eunho tilts his head, eyeing the colourful heads curiously.
Hamin is the first one to notice his questioning gaze. He stands up and walks slowly towards Eunho, a soft smile forms on his lips.
He grabs the nearest chair and sits beside Eunho. His hand softly ruffles Eunho’s silver locks.
“Eunho-hyung? Are you okay?”
Eunho stares at Hamin, eyebrows furrowed in lack of recognition. “I’m sorry but who are you?” He asks softly.
A deafening silence falls upon the room.
Suddenly, Eunho hears a flurry of footsteps walking briskly towards him.
Bamby scowls, “Hey, Do Eunho, stop joking.” He stands beside Hamin who is frozen in his seat.
Eunho surreptitiously glances at the black-haired man as his gaze sweeps across the blonde and blue haired men standing behind Bamby.
“Bamby-hyung? Why are you here? Where am I?”
“Hey, how come you remember Bamby but not Hamin?” Noah interrupts. Yejun frowns, thinking quietly beside him.
“Is this the temporary amnesia that the doctor talks about?” He hums.
Bamby and Noah looks at him, then at Eunho. They totally forgot about that.
“Right, that’s probably it.” Bamby exhales softy, relieved.
Eunho raises his hand as he asks, “Um, excuse me but why a doctor? Did something happened to me?” he rubs his eyes, “And who are you guys?”
Bamby looks at him, his gaze lingered for a second on Hamin who is still frozen in his seat. “Nothing to worry about. You’re in the hospital right now, something happened but I’ll tell you later. These are Noah-hyung, Yejun-hyung, and Hamin.”
Yejun nods his head, flashing a friendly smile towards him. Noah looks at Hamin, feeling pity for the younger, “Hey, Haminie, don’t worry. It’s only temporary.” He grabs Hamin’s shoulder and squeezes it softly, placating. Hamin nods solemnly.
Eunho’s gaze stuck on Hamin, eyes scanning the man. Hamin notices his stares, he raises his head and gives Eunho a soft and gentle smile.
Hamin tilts his head, “What’s up, hyung?”
Eunho’s cheeks redden, he can feel his neck and ears heating up as well. Eunho stammers in his seat, fiddling with his thumbs in embarrassment from being caught off-guard by Hamin’s blinding smile. “…no, nothing.” He mumbles as he break their eye contact.
Noah’s grins widen at the display as Bamby rolls his eyes, “What’s this? Why are you so red, Eunho-ya?”
Hamin stealthily takes the silver-haired man’s hand into his, “Hi, Eunho-hyung.”
His smile widens as Eunho’s cheeks becomes redder as seconds pass. Eunho tries to pull his hand but Hamin’s grip on him is firm.
“Let go of my hand! Why are you holding my hand,” he grumbles as he struggles to pull his hand. Hamin finally relents, a soft teasing smile on his lips.
“Why can’t I hold your hand?”
Eunho huffs, cheeks puffed out as he pouts, “I have a boyfriend. Don’t touch me. He will be angry.”
Hamin’s eyes widen for a fraction, “You have a boyfriend?”
“Yeah, I do. So, don’t touch me.”
“But your boyfriend is not here, isn’t he? So, let me hold your hand.”
“No way! I don’t want to.” Eunho huffs angrily, puzzled by this stunning man’s lack of tact and shameless behavior. He is certain he has a boyfriend, he just can’t seem to put a name on him.
Eunho casts his gaze at Bamby with his glistening puppy eyes, “Hyung, who’s my boyfriend? And where is he?”
Hamin slowly takes Eunho’s hand into his again, thumbs rubbing circles at the back of the pale hand. Eunho remains unaware of the younger’s ministration.
Bamby rolls his eyes again, “This fool. Your boyfriend is holding your hand right now.”
Eunho’s eyes snaps towards Hamin, who is still smiling fondly at the elder’s antic, “You’re my boyfriend?” He asks softly.
Hamin chuckles, “Yes, I am.”
“Really?” Eunho’s eyes widen in awe. Hamin laughs louder, fondness seeping in his gaze.
“Yes, I am, pup.” He whispers softly, interlocking their hands.
A rapid beeping sounds suddenly fills the room. Noah and Yejun immediately look for the source of the sound.
Upon knowing the reason on why the machine suddenly beeps loudly, Yejun and Noah laughs loudly while Bamby scoffs, amused.
“Look at this fool, so smitten to the core.” He mumbles under his breath.
Said fool is currently busy looking at his boyfriend with sparkling eyes and smiles so wide that that Bamby fears he might tear his mouth with how wide he smiles.
