Your eyes slowly flutter open as you sit up from your bed. What time is it? You thought, but didn't care to look at your phone or alarm clock. "Oh, you're awake." You heard a familiar voice say. You look over to the doorway and see your boyfriend walk into your shared bedroom. He walked over to you and put his hand on your forehead, keeping it there for a second. "Yup, you still got a fever. I'll give you some medicine before I take a shower." He said, walking into the bathroom and searching the cabinets until he pulled out a bottle and cup. "Open up." He said after pouring some medicine into the cup. 

He smiled at the sour face you made after tasting the strong medicine. Leaning forward, he gave you a kiss on the forehead and smiled again. "Alright, I'm gonna go take a shower, but you should watch some tv and try to rest up." You agreed and turned the tv on and started to watch your favorite show as he grabbed some clothes and left the room.

About half an hour later, you still couldn't sleep, but the tv started bugging out. You tried hitting the remote a few times, but that wasn't working.Hm, Leorio's probably done with his shower by now. I should go see if he can fix the tv. You thought to yourself before rolling out of bed and heading towards the bathroom. 

When you got there you couldn't hear the shower running anymore, so it was obvious he was done, but you heard something else. Walking closer to the bathroom door, you put your ear to the door to hear..crying?  Yes, crying. Not just that, he was sobbing. You dropped the remote and opened the bathroom door. "Oreo, what's wrong?" When he saw you he turned away to try and hide his face, but you already saw his teary eyes. 

"(Y/n), you should be out of bed." He mumbled, still hiding his face. You walked over and sat on the bathroom floor next to him. Holding his hands in yours and lowering then from his face, you could see his red face and bloodshot eyes with tear stains running down his cheeks. "Why are you crying? Did something happen?" You moved your hands from his and wrapped them around him, embracing him into a hug.

He sniffed and wiped away his tears before speaking. "It's nothing but- when you get sick I get really worried since- when I was younger my childhood friend-" He couldn't talk anymore than that since all that came out were sobs, but he didn't need to. You knew about his friend and what happened, so when he mentioned it, it all made sense to you; he just got really paranoid when you get sick because that's how his friend..passed. 

You hugged him tighter and gave him kisses all over his face as tears continued to pour out of his eyes. He pulled you down so you were both laying on the bathroom floor in each others arms. By now he was the one kissing you and he mumbled things about how much he loves you and how he'll make sure you never end up like his friend, all while still crying. 

Eventually, he was able to stop crying and helped you off the bathroom floor. After that he made sure you got back into bed and were comfortable enough to fall asleep, this time with him cuddling you. The last thing you thought of before you fell asleep was how grateful you were that the tv broke because otherwise you wouldn't have caught Leorio crying and wouldn't have been able to help him. You were also grateful you had the best boyfriend to help you whenever you needed him.
