March 2021

You know, waking up whilst sweating profusely wasn't exactly something I had always enjoyed. In fact I don't think I'll ever enjoy it. I quickly moved the duvet off of me and moved a bit away from Sunghoon.

"Don't," Sunghoon muttered before I felt myself get pulled back into his arm grip.

"No, let go," I tiredly murmured and tried to remove his hand, "Hoon, I'm hot."

"Yeah I know," he hummed making me let out a small sigh. Even when he was half asleep he didn't cease to flirt with me.

"I mean it... I'm really hot," I sighed and tried to remove his arm from around me.

"Yes... I know," Sunghoon stated before pulling me over to face him, "didn't you hear me the first time?"

"Are you always this oblivious?" I murmured as my eyes fell close once again. I was tired, but I couldn't sleep because I was too hot.

"Wait... are you hot as in you're sweating?" he questioned and I just nodded with a hum, "that's not normal..." he muttered before placing a hand on my forehead, "why aren't you freezi- oh my, you're burning," he muttered, "that's burning... oh uhm... okay," he muttered before quickly sitting up, "and they're all sleeping..."

I let out a small hum at the satisfying feeling of the bed being a lot cooler now that Sunghoon wasn't laying down.

"Okay... I have an idea... can you walk?" Sunghoon questioned and I just nodded.

"Of course I can walk, I have legs, don't I?" I questioned him and felt him leave the bed.

"Come here," he cooed out making me lift my head and move over towards the edge of the bed where he stood.

"Can't you come back? I'm freezing," I muttered.

"Yep, definitely a fever," he muttered before opening his arms wide, "Come on, cling."

I hummed before moving over and wrapping my arms around his neck and swinging my legs around his waist making him let out a small giggle before he began walking. As we reached the kitchen he quickly wrapped an arm around my waist to keep me in place as he wandered about.

"Hot or cold?" he questioned.

"Cold," I muttered and snuggled in closer to him, making him let out a small laugh, "can't we just sleep?"

"You have a fever," he shook his head against my shoulder, "you have to at least drink something first, and when we can go back to bed. Tea?"

"We don't have more," I shook my head making him sigh as I could hear him open cabinets, "I took the last one last night."

"Actually..." he muttered, "we do have some homemade tea blend my mom dropped of."

"Mhm," I hummed at him.

"So... do you want to stay there whil I make the tea, or do you want to sit and wait?" he questioned.

"You're warm," I muttered.

"I take that as staying," he hummed and I nodded.

Sunghoon began moving around the kitchen while he was heating some water and finding the tea blend. Meanwhile I continued to cling onto him, and whenever I woudl slide one bit down he would quickly wrap an arm around my waist to secure me in place.

"I'm gonna set you down, real quick," Sunghoon stated before I felt myself get placed on the kitchen table and I let go of him. He quickly turned around before handing me the small mug with the tea, "here, drink it."

"I'm sorry," I muttered as I grabbed the mug and began sipping.

"Why?" Sunghoon let out a small laugh at me.

"Because now you'll get sick too," I excused.

"I spent ten years in an ice rink, I think I'm as good as immune to fevers by now," he assured making me arch a brow at him, "it's fine, Hana. Don't think about it. If I get sick I get sick, and then I just have another excuse to stay in bed with you."

"What a flirt," I commented before continuing to sip on the tea, "this is good."

"Mhm," he hummed in agreement, "do you have a headache?"

"Only a small one," I shook my head at him.

"I'll go get come painkillers," he excused before quickly rushing out of the kitchen, leaving me by myself.

It wasn't long before he ruched back into the kitchen with a box of painkillers in hand.

"How many do you usually take? 1 or 2?" he questioned.

"Just one," I replied and he quickly popped out a painkiller out for me.

I swallowed the painkiller with the rest of the tea, before placing the mug in the sink. I immediately opened my arms again and Sunghoon just let out a small laugh before moving over to me, so I could cling onto him again.

"How about we sleep on the couch?" he offered, "I think you'll get too hot if we go back into the bedroom," he reasoned.

"Okay," I hummed.

Sunghoon walked us down to the living room where he grabbed a blanket before sitting down on the couch and carefully spreading out the blanket before laying down with me on top of him.

"You can't sleep like this," I stated and tried to move to his side.

"Shut up, you weight nothing," he held me tight so that I couldn't move down beside him, "just try and sleep again. Okay?" he questioned and ran a hand through my hair.

"I should get sick some more," I muttered with a small nod.

"Why?" he let out a small laugh.

"Because you subconsiouly become more affectionate," I excused with a shrug, making him let out a small laugh at me.

"And you like that, huh?" he questioned and I just shrugged.

"Eh, I think you're cute when you're all shy about just holding my hand," I excused, "but it feels nice to not always initiate affection."

"I initiate affection," he gasped at me.

"Mhm, whatever makes you sleep at night Icey," I hummed and closed my eyes.

"Does it make me a bad boyfriend?" he muttered.

"Shut up and sleep," I murmured in reply and lightly hit his shoulder, "you're speaking nonsense."

"You'll feel better in the morning," he assured and tugged the blanket further up around me before wrapping his arms back around me.
