“Hey babe was your food spicy?”
Your head snaps up from looking at your phone. You and Timothee had been to your favorite local NYC restaurant for your weekly date night. Then you guys had returned home to watch a movie and cuddle.
You noticed Timothee was standing in the doorway of the living room holding his stomach like it hurt. It looked a little distended too. Something was wrong.
“My food was fine? Why? You didn’t accidentally get something spicy did you?” You ask worriedly.
Timothee getting bad diarrhea from spicy food was not in your nightly plan.
He nodded and squirmed.
“Oh sweetie. What do you need?” You ask quickly getting up.
He groaned and leaned forward as a cramp ripped through him causing horrible pain and the nastiest farts you’d ever smelled in your life.
“Ok come on bathroom now.” You grab his free hand and help him to the bathroom.
You help him with his pant buttons and and as soon as he sits down he’s having horrible pain and watery diarrhea into the toilet. You turn on the bathroom fan.
"It hurts!" he whined.
“Shh I know lovey.”
You go over and place a hand on his stomach and start massaging it as he proceeds to have violent diarrhea.
Timothee grunts and pushes out rounds of slop. Clearly unwell and in a good amount of pain.
“Why didn’t you send the food back or tell me it was too spicy sweet boy?” You ask worriedly
“I didn’t want to ruin our night and…”
He’s cut off by a grunt and pushes out more watery shit into the toilet bowl.
He shudders and you grab a washcloth to wet it and wipe the sweat gathering on his forehead.
“Nughh it burns. It burns”
“Shh I know. You’ll be alright just get it out.”
You keep a hand on his back rubbing circles.
“How much did you eat?” You ask concerned.
“I ate most of it. Ohh it hurts.”
“Oh Timmy baby you shouldn’t have. Now your tummy is a mess. Poor baby.”
You continue to massage his back as he uses the bathroom.
Finally it stops and the only thing he’s dealing with is gas and pain. He’s burping and complains that it hurts and is making him nauseous.
You grab some Imodium and help him take it then help him clean up, flush away the mess and help him to the couch.
“ma chérie, je pense que c'était le pire mal de ventre que je t'ai jamais vu depuis 3 ans que nous sommes ensemble.” You say worriedly in your not so great French.
Timothee nods
“la pire crise de diarrhée douloureuse de tous les temps.” He replies in his nearly perfect French compared to your broken French.
“I’m sorry baby.”
You kiss his head. “Do you want the heating pad for your tummy?” You ask.
Normally you would never talk about stomach issues that way. But when Timothee was dealing with stomach issues saying a more grown up term went out the window.
You set up the heating pad for him. He takes it and puts it on the area where it hurts the most. He sighs with relief.
“Better?” You ask
He nods and smiles weakly.
You sit next to him and ruffle his curls. He sighs as you massage his scalp.
Despite the heating pad Timothee is still in pain and dealing with bad gas which makes him uncomfortable and squirmy.
Eventually though the heating pad helps him feel more comfortable and he soon falls asleep. Not for long though soon he’s up and back in the bathroom expelling the food that was making him so sick.
You sighed as you leaned against the closed bathroom door listening to Timothee groan and curse under his breath.
It was going to be a long night.
