Your skin felt like it was on fire. But if you even dared taking the blanket off you were immediately freezing cold. You’ve been sick for a couple days now. Not exactly a fever and not exactly allergies. That one uncomfortable place in the middle.
You were bed ridden most of the time. Too nauseous to get up or your body ached too much, only in your boyfriend’s oversized t-shirt and his boxers.
Toji had been keeping a close eye on you. Its not exactly abnormal for you to get sick but whenever you do its never the greatest. Today you had seemed a bit more exhausted, like you had barely gotten sleep last night.
He walked in the bedroom with a cap full of medicine and a drink to wash it down. You groaned at the sight already knowing the gross taste of whats to come. “Oh don’t be like that, it’s gonna make y’feel better.” He said as he sat beside you on the edge of the bed.
“That stuff tastes like you try to poison me.” You took the medicine and drink in your hands, quickly downing the medicine and handing the cap back to him as you tried to make the taste go away.
Toji chuckled at your expression, setting the cap on the nightstand beside the bed. You finally got the taste out good enough and put your drink down on the table as well. Sighing deeply, you laid back down, a headache deciding to pay you a visit this morning.
You felt the weight on the bed shift beside you as Toji laid beside you, propping himself up on one elbow. “How you feeling today doll.” He asked in a soft tone. He probably already knew the answer but he liked to ask anyway.
“Like a victorian child that just got the plague.” He chuckled at your words, bringing a hand up to brush the hair out of your face. “Poor thing.” You turned your head to look at him, eye bags almost prominent. “Looks like you didn’t get great sleep last night, what’s up?” A storm had happened last night, you weren’t exactly afraid of thunder, its just how heavy it was last night that was really loud and had you a bit worrier.
“Body wouldn’t let me sleep till late and then I woke up to heavy rain. Could barely sleep afterwards.” He hummed at your words before getting up and turning on the fan he had bought just for you.
“What are you doing?” You asked curiously. “Getting ready to take a nap with you, duh.” He said like it was the most obvious thing on the planet. He was getting changed into more breathable clothes and when he turned around he wasn’t met with a quite happy face.
“What?” He asked as he hopped in bed with you. “Toji you’re gonna get sick you can’t do that.” He laughed at your words before pulling you into his arms, suddenly your nausea was gone. “As if you could get me sick doll, I’m not the one with the immune system of a ‘victorian child.’”
You couldn’t fight him on it, his grasp comforting and your body too exhausted and weak to push him away. Sooner than you expected, you fell right asleep. Toji was awake for while after you fell asleep, making sure nothing was wrong. Finally he kissed your temple and drifted to sleep himself, with you safely in his arms.
And then a few days later he gets sick as soon as you stop being sick. Told you soooo
(Ive been sick since monday so I made this out of comfort, release me </3)
