I've had dizziness and headaches for a few days as side effects from switching medications and I kinda daydream about Julian taking care of my pitiful ass 😓
“Julian,” you whine, pulling the cool sheets up to cover the lower half of your face. “I’m sick of this new medicine. I don’t want to take it.”
Julian raises an eyebrow at you from where he’s leaning back on the headboard next to you in bed to keep an eye on you and gives you a gentle smile. “I know it’s no fun, darling, but you’ll feel better soon.”
You give him a pitiful glare, your heart not in it - you weren’t mad at him of course, but you just felt rotten from the side effects of the medicine. “It doesn’t feel like it.”
“I know, dear,” Julian says, paying no mind to the little glare you shot him. He places his hand on the cool washcloth on your forehead and frowns a little before he peels it off gently. “I think you’ll feel better after we get this changed. I could bring you a little treat too if you’re up to it. Asra dropped off some of that pumpkin bread you love so much while you were asleep.”
It’s impossible to keep the small smile off your lips when you think about some of Salasi’s warm pumpkin bread. (There’s no doubt in your mind that Asra had enchanted it to keep it warm like he always did when you couldn’t eat it right away.)
“That sounds nice.” You adjust your spot in the bed so you can meet Julian’s soft gaze. “Sorry for being grumpy.”
“No worries, my love. I know how it feels.” Julian leans down and places a kiss on your slightly damp forehead before he gingerly gets up from your shared bed. “Sit tight, and I’ll be right back.”
