Dream was sitting on the couch, curled up with a blanket over his shoulders. He was feeling a little better than yesterday, but still had the fever. So Cross told him to rest.

Cross was putting some more pillows onto the couch and turned on the TV and Switch, so he can both play and keep an eye on Dream at the same time.
Dream had a controller as well, they were playing a game about a pink puffball who can copy abilities and make allies by tossing friend hearts.

They played for a while, but then Dream felt a bit hotter. Cross noticed Dream's behavior and paused the game to check up on him. He placed his hand on Dream's forehead and it was really hot. Cross dashed to the kitchen and dialed Nightmare for help because, he needed to know.

"Heya, Nightmare?"

"What is it you walking X?"

"Dream's sick-"

In just a blink of an eye, Nightmare was already behind the front door, banging the door to open. Cross dropped the phone and opened the door. Nightmare had a serious face. "Where's Dream?" He asked sternly. Cross pointed at Dream, who was laying sickly on the couch.

Nightmare dashed over there and placed a tendril over Dream's forehead. It was hot like hell, so Nightmare got to work. He told Cross to get him a basin of water with a clean cloth. Cross did exactly that and placed it beside Nightmare.

Nightmare began using the wet cloth on Dream's forehead to lower the heat. He then got some medicine for Dream and asked him to drink it now.
So Dream sat up slowly and drank the medicine, it was really bitter. Afterwards, he fell back down the couch and proceeded to fall asleep.

"Go make some soup. Call me if you need me again." Nightmare said before teleporting away. Cross then went to make soup for Dream, hoping he would get better soon.
