"But appa said..." Tae's protest was pretty weak, because mostly he just didn't want to move at all. He wanted to close his eyes and stop hurting. Tae wanted to stop crying, because crying was hurting his head. "I love you, hyung." He just felt he had to tell him. Why were they going to school?
"Isn't school closed? Cause... Oh, no, there is still gym." He thought gym went on pretty late, so that was okay. "You can play piano and I can sleep." Sounded good. Even if their appa would be mad, but appa was always mad. So mad.
Jiho held Tae as carefully as he could, blocked out the pain and started to head out into the porch. He moved as swiftly as he could, wanting to go to school. To the music room. It was safe there. He needed a safe place and he needed Tae to be okay. "Please don't sleep, stay awake please. Stay awake for hyung."
He tried to keep Tae aware and awake but by the time they reached the school, Tae was worryingly quiet. "Nearly at the music room and then... then we'll be safe."
"Yes, hyung." Tae smiled a little and hoped that his head would stop pounding. It was so difficult to keep his eyes open, they were all heavy and everything was making him dizzy. He didn't know why the music room was safe, but his trust in his hyung was absolute. "I hurt, hyung..."
"Yeah, we're almost there. Just close your eyes." Was sleeping bad? He didn't know. When he was sick or had a fever, he usually slept. And Tae wasn't well so that's what he needed. He pulled the boy close and stumbled through the hallway, hurrying to the music room. He knew how to get into it by now, they were a trick with the handle.
"Come on, let's lie down. You're gonna be okay. Just try to sleep."
"Okay, hyung." Tae tried to find a way to lie that didn't hurt and he couldn't, which made him sob again, but sobbing hurt even worse. So instead he quieted down and stopped moving, still passing out quickly. No wonder, given how much he'd been knocked around.
He was safe with his hyung and maybe they could go see eomma together.
