Y/N POV
“You sure that outfit is gonna keep your warm?” Sam asks with his hands in his pockets. I nod, “I like the cold, so I’ll be fine.” Sam scoffs and gives me a warm hug, “Don’t stay too long, I get that they’re your friends, but-” I cut Sam off with a quick peck on the lips, “I know, I’ll try and be home by 9:00!” Sam smiles and opens the door for me to meet my friends at the Golden Reef Diner five blocks away from our house. “I really don’t like you walking, but if you insist I guess it’s okay,” Sam says rocking on the balls of his feet. “Yup, I’ll be fine and if there’s a problem, I will call you~” I say booping his nose and walk out the door.
I open the doors to the diner and see Suzu and Naomi sitting at a table waving toward me. I hustle over to the table and sit down. “HI GURL,” Suzu yells, stares from people follow. “Suzu! Be quiet,” Naomi says angrily. Suzu grumbles in response and I look at the menu. ‘Hmmm, what to get? The Fettuccine Alfredo sounds delicious, but then there’s also Seafood Platter. I’ll go with the with Fettuccine Alfredo to be safe!’ A waitress comes to our table and politely asks, “What can I get you ladies to drink ?” I ponder for a second coming to a decision, “I’ll have a (favorite drink).” The waitress nods, “And what about you,” she asks looking towards Suzu. “I would love to have a vodka on the rocks!” The waitress writes down Suzu’s drink and Naomi orders a Coke with lemon.
Minutes pass by and the waitress comes back with our drinks. She asks us what we’d like to eat and we all order of entree’s. “Okay, those will be out in about twenty minutes,” she says smiling and walks away. “So… what’s it like living in a mansion with one hot man?” Suzu asks emphasizing the word hot, “Anything exciting,” she remarks, raising an eyebrow and smirking. “Well, I-I… uh, yeah it’s… nice?” I respond, very visibly flustered. Suzu laughs in response to my answer to her question, “How many times?” I sheepishly state, “A-around 10… or more, maybe, I don’t know. I’ve lost track.” Suzu gawks at me, “Dammmnnnn gurl, get some!” I laugh and retort, “at least I have fun~” Suzu glares at me in a joking manner.
Naomi coughs, getting both of our attention, “Let’s talk about this in a… different setting, we can go back to my place afterwards!” Suzu aggrees, but I have to decline, “ I would love to, but Sam and I are going to catch up on (F/TV/S), maybe another time.” Naomi nods and smiles, “okay, that’s fine. Have fun!” “But not too much fun, if you’re picking up was I’m putting down,” Suzu says with an evil smirk. I roll my eyes and scoff. The three of us talk about random things like cats, Suzu’s trip to Italy, and TV shows. Soon enough, our food arrived looking delicious as ever!
My mouth waters at the sight of my dinner. A delicately prepared bowl of steaming hot fettuccine, properly soaked in a white and creamy sauce with various steamed vegetables mixed in. Suzu gets a long rectangle plate that has a seared pork chop with a plethora of different spices and seasoning on it. Towards the other end of her plate was a mixture of sweet peas, carrots, broccoli, and corn with a decently sized dollop of mashed potatoes alongside it. Naomi is given a plate with a large bowl of minestrone soup on it. The wide assortment of vegetables floating in it consisted of: beans, celery, onions, carrots, zucchini, and tomatoes. Small pieces of penne floating around within the vegetable stock along with the various vegetables. On the plate, next to the bowl, are three crostini’s for dipping into the soup. “Thank you! This looks delicious,” I say enthusiastically. “You’re welcome, enjoy,” the waitress replies and walks over to another table. The three of us dig into our food, savoring the delicious taste.
We all finish our food and split the bill, leaving a $20.00 tip. I hug my friends and say goodbye, leaving the diner and walking home. I stick my nose up and feel soft snowflakes dance along my now reddened skin. I sigh, my breath becoming cold and visible, almost like a dragon. I put my hood up and stuff my hands into my pockets. Picking up my pace, I trip over a crack in the sidewalk and slam face first into the snow covered grass. I slowly get up, angrily sighing due to my now damp clothing. I continue walking home, but I have to cross a major street. I take my hands out of the pockets of my hoodie and press the crosswalk button, waiting for it to tell me to go. It says I’m good to walk now, but of course all of the elderly people and teenagers are driving so it takes a million years for them to stop, making me wait for the signal to go again. Finally, after about ten minutes of standing in the freezing cold, I cross the road and continue my journey home. My nose begins to drip with snot and I rub it away, covering my hoodie sleeve. ‘Alright, two more blocks,’ I think to myself. I come across another street I have to cross, looking both ways and see no cars. I go to take one step and a car goes flying down the road. “HEY WATCH IT ASSHOLE!” I yell, flipping the driver off and continue walking. I finally arrive home after a long and treacherous forty minute walk.
I fiddle with my keys, finding the one to unlock the house and shove it into the lock, turning it to the right and opening the door. I enter the warm mansion and close the door, kicking off my shoes and leaving my keys by the door. “SAM,” I call out, letting him know I’m home. Not even two seconds later, I see my lovely fiancé slowly walking down the grand staircase. “Jesus you look cold,” he says calmly and hugs me, “and feel cold too.” Sam lifts me up and carries me to our bedroom. He places me on the king sized bed, “Don’t move,” he states holding my shoulder. The brute runs out of the room and comes back with multiple different blankets, hot cocoa, and popcorn. Sam takes a blanket and drapes it around my shoulders, handing me a mug of hot chocolate. He turns on the fire place and the TV, putting on (F/TV/S.) Sam wraps a blanket around himself, sets his mug of hot chocolate on the night stand, and pulls me close to him. We silently watch (F/TV/S), Sam occasionally placing soft kisses on my head. I nibble on the popcorn he had made placed in the middle of the bed. Sam puts his hand against my forehead, “I think you might be getting sick,” he says in a ‘I told you so’ manner. “Psh, me getting sick, never!” I reply, leaning into his chest. I soon ignore the sounds emitting from the TV and instead focus on Sam’s heartbeat. The slow and even pace of his heartbeat and breathing slowly rocks me to bed as I fall asleep in is arms.
I wake up in the middle of the night and make a dash to the bathroom. I violently shove the toilet seat up and throw up into the porcelain throne. I try to hold my hair back and prop myself up on the toilet, which does not work out for me. My stress is soon relived as a pair of hands pulls my hair back gently and rubs my back. “Thank you,” I say weakly before throwing up again. After what feels like an eon, I don’t feel the need to regurgitate my innards and wipe the bile around my mouth with my arm. I look at Sam with a weak smile, “I guess you were right. I am so fucking sick.” Sam ruffles my hair and helps me up, handing me my toothbrush and toothpaste. “I’ll accept my victory after I make sure you’re okay,” he says sweetly in a deeper voice than usual due to being woken up. I smile and brush my teeth, discarding the plastic toothbrush afterwards. I wash my hands and open the medicine chest looking for a drug to temporarily aid me of my misfortune. “Hey, you should take that medicine after you eat something. This should make you feel better until then,” Sam says turning me around and enthralling me. It wasn’t the usual enthrallmemt that he would use when we’d make love, this felt calm and soothing. I smile weakly and hug him, wrapping my legs around his waist and he carries me to our bedroom. Sam lies me down on the bed, grabbing a thinner blanket and placing that over my body. He crawls into bed with me and places an arm around my waist, spooning me. I succumb to sleep again in my fiancé’s arms.
My eyes flutter open after I feel a hand caress my face, moving the hair out of my face. Sam places a kiss on my forehead and backs away. “Good morning Doofus,” he says sweetly. “Go..od morn…in,” I mumble softly, burying my head in the soft pillow my head lies atop of. Sam gently ruffles my hair, “Come on, get up, I’ll make you breakfast and then you can take some medicine. Okay?” I nod slowly and open my arms, signaling him to pick me up. I wrap my legs around his waist and he places one arm around my back and the other arm under my ass. I nuzzle into the crook of his neck, my body feeling like Jell-O while I slowly gain control of my limbs. I cling onto Sam like a baby sloth as he walks down the stairs and into the dining room.
He places me down in a chair and softly asks what I want for breakfast. I shrug in response. “Hmm, how about some toast and bacon?” Sam asks sweetly, looking at me curiously. “That… sounds nice,” I croak while smiling. He ruffles my hair and goes into the kitchen, almost instantaneously coming back with a glass of water. He places it on the table next to me and darts back to the kitchen, preparing breakfast. I silently wait for him to be done, the aroma of the fresh toast and bacon wafting around the kitchen and dining room. Sam comes out with a plate of two pieaces of toast, lots of bacon, and some fresh fruit on the side. I smile and thank him. He sits down across from me after getting a cup of coffee for himself. “What about you?” I ask looking st the plate of food and then toward Sam. He raises an eyebrow, “Huh, what do you mean?” Sam says, taking a sip of his coffee. “Are you going to eat as well?” I reply. “Me, no I’m not. I’ll eat when after I take care of you for a bit,” he says looking at me smiling. I only flaw and throw a piece of bacon at him, “eat the fucking bacon,” I retort jokingly. Sam, bewildered by getting a piece of bacon thrown at him, sighs and eats some of the bacon from my plate, “Happy now?” “Yes, very.” I slowly eat my food and when I’m done, Sam takes the plates and places them in the sink, leaving them to be washed later.
“Alright, lets give you some medicine,” Sam says, walking into the dining room and picks me up, taking me to the master bathroom. He places me down on the toilet and goes toward the medicine chest. “What do you need to take for a stomach bug?” Sam asks. “Just fuck me up with all of that medicine.” “Nice try, but I’m not about to kill my fiancé five month before the wedding.” I roll my eyes, “If there’s Pepto Bismal, then-” I start to violently cough like a seal, alerting Sam. He quickly gets one of those small paper cups and fills it with the tap water from the sink, handing it to me. I drink the water and the coughs die down a little. Sam walks over to me with a thermometer and shoves it into my mouth. He pulls out the thermometer ten seconds later and reads the numbers, “103.5°F,” and sighs, kissing my forehead. “Ok, so I need more than Pepto Bismal,” I giggle. “I guess so,” Sam nods, walking back to the medicine chest and pulls out Pepto Bismal and DayQuil, “Here, take these.” I nod and swallow the pills from the packages. I open my arms again and Sam smiles, picking me up again, “Where to Doofus?” I point on the direction of our bedroom, “ I wanna watch TV and take a nap.” He nods and walks over to our bedroom, opening the door and bringing me to the bed. He gently sits me down on the bed and turns on the TV, “I’ll be right back,” Sam says and leaves the room, leaving me to flop through the channels and find Animal Planet. He comes back shortly after with a damp cloth and a glass of water. Sam places the glass of water on my nightstand and gently lays the damp cloth on my forehead, softly pressing me back. Understanding what he’s trying to do, I lean back against the cushioned headboard.
After watching Animal Planet and all of the reruns of The Puppy Bowl for almost two hours, I peel the cloth off of my forehead and place it on the nightstand next to the now empty glass of water. “Can I take a nap?” I tiredly ask Sam. He nods and kisses my forehead, “take as long as you’d like.” I smile and turn around, closing my eyes. I feel Sam slowly glide his fingers through my hair, soothing me to sleep.
I wake up from my nap four hours later, Sam’s arm draped over my waist. I smile softly and sit up, his arm falling down onto the mattress. I yawn and stretch loudly. Sam wakes up and sits up as well, looking at the time, “it’s already four o’clock. Do you want to eat an early dinner, take a shower, and go to sleep early. You also need to take another round of medicine soon.” I lightly smile, “yeah, that sounds nice,” I say, yawning again, “I’m gonna go to the bathroom, can you start making dinner?” Sam nods and walks out of our room and downstairs. I slowly get out from under the covers and wobble to the bathroom. I do what I gotta do and leave the bathroom, slowly walking down the stairs, making sure I don’t fall. When I enter the dining room, my nose is attacked by an array of fresh aromas. I take a deep breath and smile, sitting down. I already know what Sam is making for me: chicken noodle soup. I wait patiently for Sam to walk out of the kitchen with a big bowl of chicken noodle soup and slices of bread on the side. I smile and thank him. “Don’t worry, I made a bowl for myself too. I’d rather not get bread or a piece of chicken flung at me,” Sam says walking back to the kitchen and grabbing a bowl of his own. I giggle and start to eat the soup. The warmth filling my body and my taste buds having a party from the delicious flavors that arises due to the wonderful and perfectly balanced mixture of spices, vegetables, noodles, chicken, and stock. I almost moan from how good this soup is, but I stop myself. I slowly eat the soup, savoring the taste. When I’m halfway done with my soup, Sam is done with his, “I’m gonna go set up a bath for you. You okay here for a bit?” I nod, my mouth full of soup. Sam smiles, ruffles my hair and walks up the stairs to prepare a bath.
About twenty minutes pass and I finish my soup, around the same time, Sam descends down the staircase and comes into the dining room. “You done eating,” he asks gingerly, planting a kiss on my cheek. I nod and smile. Sam picks me up and carries me into the bathroom, “Do you want to take your medicine before or after the bath?” I ponder for a second, “Before.” Sam places me down on the toilet and grabs the bottle of Pepto Bismal and NightQuil. I swallow the pills and start to take off my shirt, fumbling a bit. “Let me help you with that,” Sam says helpfully. I put my hands down and Sam takes off my shirt, both of us blushing since I wasn’t wearing a bra. He unties the knot in my sweatpants, pulling them off. Sam also takes off my underwear and slowly walks me over to the bath, helping me into the warm water. I slide into the tiny pool of warmth and take a deep breath, the smell of roses filling my nose. “Thank you,” I say grinning brightly. Sam smiles and reaches for the shampoo, “Turn around.” I do as he says and face the wall. Sam squeezes the shampoo onto his hands and washes my hair, massaging it too. He takes a plastic cup, filling it with the warm rose water from the tub and gently pours it onto my head. The water gracefully cascading down my (H/C) locks. Sam repeats this three times and then puts conditioner in my hair. I lean back against the frame of the tub, keeping my head up. Sam starts to softly massage my shoulders and neck while waiting for the conditioner to set. I sit for around five minutes, Sam’s hands press into my shoulders and his thumbs rub my neck. He pecks my cheek and calmly says, “Sit up.” I slowly sit up straight as my loving fiancé rinses my hair. He gingerly moves me to my original place. I stretch out my legs, my knees slightly poking out of the water. Sam takes a washcloth and squeezes the strawberry and rose scented body soap onto it. He rubs the cloth on my neck and shoulders, the heavenly scent of the soap getting absorbed by my skin making me smell nice. Sam lifts up my right arm and washes it, then places it back down into the water and repeats with my left arm. He stretches out my leg, my ankle resting on the rim of the tub, gently spreading the soap on my legs. The soap suds travel down from my calves to my thighs and into the water, sticking around my curves. Sam lowers my legs into the water and squeezes out the washcloth into the warm water of the tub, placing the now wet piece of cloth on the edge of the frame. He leans over and kisses my forehead, “enjoy yourself, I’ll come back in thirty minutes.” I hum in response, closing my eyes after he leaves the bathroom. I rest my arms on the edge of the tub, submerging myself into the small warm body of water. The scent relaxing me and puts me to sleep.
I feel a soft kiss on my forehead, “Get up Doofus.” I stir awake and open my eyes, I’m still in the tub, the water now a lukewarm. Sam takes my hand and helps me out of the tub. He wraps a towel around me and lifts me up onto the vanity. His gentle hands caress my cheek and he leans in, peppering soft kisses on my lips, “You are so beautiful, even when you’re sick.” I blush and kiss him back, pulling away and yawning. “Tired again?” I nod in response to his question. “Alrighty then,” .Sam picks me up and carries me to our bedroom. He places me down on the bed and grabs a brush from the dresser. He sits down behind me and gingerly glides the brush through my (H/C) hair. The water droplets from my hair dripped onto the bed, but we didn’t care. Sam gets up and looks through the drawers, finding a thing of pajamas for me to wear: one of his old shirts, a pair of shorts, and some underwear. He removes the towel from my body, exposing me to the coldness of our room. I shiver and Sam chuckles, pulling the shirt over my head and helping me put it on. He helps me put on the underwear and shorts too. His hands gently press me on the mattress and he takes off his shirt, sliding into bed. Sam embraces me in a warm hug and I nuzzle into his arms and neck. I take in his scent that I’ve grown to love so much and fall asleep soundly.
