edward when bella gets sick hcs
obviously our boy is quite the stickler for the dramatics in general (i.e. new moon)
but because he almost fuckin died from the Spanish flu he would prob take illness to Another Extreme
so when bella gets the flu he Flips His Shit
he constantly is asking alice to check her future to see if she’ll be okay
and alice is like “edward it’s the common flu calm the fuck down”
and he’s like “well you know what we thought the Spanish influenza was the common flu and look at me now”
anyway he is constantly at bella’s side
he brings her soup and is always with her when she goes to the bathroom
and she’s like “edward please I look awful don’t follow me in here to puke my guts out”
and he’s like “you look fine. just let me help. just to reassure myself”
and bella can’t say no to him so she lets him pull her hair back as she pukes
he rubs soothing circles on her back and lays with her to cool her body temperature down while she has a fever
charlie is like “wtf Edward aren’t you scared about getting sick why are you here so much anyway”
and he’s just like “I got my flu shot unlike some people” and pointedly looks at bella
he makes her go to carlisle for a check up like twice a day for the first couple days while she’s sick
until finally her and carlisle are like “That’s Enough Stop This Nonsense”
and he’s pouty but accept maybe he’s going just a tad bit overboard
one day while bella is getting better she is like “why are you going so overboard with making me feel better?”
and he smiles and is like “love, have you forgotten how I almost died?”
and she smiles and hugs him
after a while she looks up at him and say “you know I’m glad you got that flu”
and he’s perplexed like What The Fuck Bella
she just answers “without it we would have never met!”
and he’s like “I literally almost died but ok”
but they laugh and cuddle and all that fluffy nonsense
