You and Niall have been best friends for a long time and you started dating a few months ago. Today, you and Niall decided to ride your bikes together. You were wearing a jacket, being a little cold outside, but Niall decided to not care about it.

"-Niall, you'll be cold." you said looking at him.
"-Don't worry, darling. I'll be just fine." Niall said.
You two started your ride after this short conversation. You spent a lot of time outside and after a while it started raining. You and Niall were far from home, so you had to ride back home.

At home, your hair and your jacket were a little wet, but you weren't really cold. Niall, on the other hand, was freezing. His hair and his clothes were soaked and he was shivering badly. You two went and changed in some dry clothes.

You finished really fast and went to kitchen to prepare some food for you and Niall. When he came downstairs, you could see him still shivering and walking slowly with one of his hands on his head.
"-Ni, you alright?"
"-Yeah, I'm just going to lay down on the couch." he said.
"-Ok, would you like a blanket, food will be ready soon." you said rubbing his back gently. Niall nodded and touched his eyes with his hand.

He went in the living room and you brought him a blanket. He whispered a "Thank you." and closed his eyes. You kissed his head and went in the kitchen.

After about half an hour food was ready and you went to call Niall. You were sure he would be feeling better by now, but it wasn't the case. He was shivering under the blanket, but you could see his forehead covered in sweat. You decided to wake him.

"-Baby, hey, wake up draling." you said and kissed his face. He opened his eyes slowly and looked at you.
"-H-Hey." he said rubbing his eyes.
"-Baby, you alright? You're shivering, but sweating. You feel warm, would you like me to take your temperature?" you asked and he nodded. You brought the thermometer from the bathroom and put it under his arm. You stayed with him on the couch, Niall burying his head in your neck. You could still feel him shivering. After a few minutes you heard the beep and took the thermometer.

"-It's 37.8, petal. It's not that high, but it's enough to make you feel bad. Would you like to eat something?" you asked rubbing his arm.
"-I'm not r-really hungry, s-sorry." he said and put his arms over your neck. You nodded and started playing with his hair. You decided to get him to bed to rest and sleep and eat later, you weren't that hungry either.

You two got under the duvet together. Niall put his head on your chest, you being the big spoon that night. He likes being the little spoon when he's not feeling well. You started rubbing his arm. Because it was still early, you decided to read for some time.

One hour and a half later, you fell asleep too.

Niall's POV

When I woke up it was already morning. I opened my eyes slowly and felt a sharp pain in my skull. I wanted to wake you and ask for some meds, but I decided to just get ready for work and let it pass.

I sat up in bed and went in the bathroom to prepare for another long day at the studio.

Your POV

I started opening my eyes slowly and saw that Niall wasn't in bed. I sat up and called for him. He responded from the bathroom. I got my phone and started scrolling through social media.

After a few minutes, Niall came back in the bedroom and I saw him wearing a shirt and blue jeans.
"-Niall, what are you doing? Come on, back to bad!" I said and pat the space beside me."

-I can't, I have to be at the studio in an hour." he said looking for some clothes to wear.
"-Ni, are you feeling better?" I asked walking to him. I put my hand on his head and felt the heat. I were sure he was feeling miserable.

"-Not actually, but I have to go."
"-Why don't you call the management or one of the boys and explain everything?"
"-We had two days off last week, they won't let me have another one." he said and left the bedroom. I went in the kitchen and strated preparing breakfast. He came downstairs after a few minutes, sat on a chair and put his head on the tabel. I knew he was feeling terrible, but I couldn't help him.

"-Would you like to eat something, baby?"
"-I am not really hungry, Y/N. I am sorry."
"-It's ok, I understand, but you should, at least eat a banana, please." Niall nodded and took a banana. After about 10 minutes he left to the studio. I started preparing for work too and in half an hour I went to the hospital, to start a new day as a surgeon.

Niall's POV

I've been at the studio for only an hour and I wasn't doing well. I was sure I had a migraine and I was feverish. The boys already knew that I wasn't feeling well and they let me go in and record first, so I could rest arter. All I wanted was to be at home with you and sleep, but no, the management wanted to talk to us about the next tour and album.

I couldn't even concentrate, the pain in my skull was overwhelming and I felt like I could explode any minute, but I waited there patently.

After the meeting was done, I started walking slowly to a couch, but I could barely stay on my feet, so I put my right hand on the wall and walked.

I finally made it after some loooooong minutes and laid there for some time, before I fell in a restless sleep.
"-Niall, hey buddy. Wake up, please.'' someone said rubbing my arm. I opened my eyes and saw Harry looking at me.
"-I'm up, what are you doing?'' I asked.
"-We have an interview the management forgot to tell us about. We have to be there in 10 minutes. I'm sorry mate, I know you are not feeling too well." he told me. I wanted to scream, an interview was the last thing I needed, but I had to do it. I nodded and made my way to the van.

We arrived there pretty fast and we were rushed to Lou, to make our hair. She asked me if I was ok, because I felt warm and I was sweating buckets, but I just lied to her and said that it's nothing.

The interview felt like torture to me, the lights, the voices, everything was just making me feel more tired, if that is even possible. The interviewer tried to ask me some questions, but I couldn't concentrate, so I just stayed there and waited for the interview to be done, so I could go home.

Your POV

"-Ok, everything looks good, I will see you next week to talk about recovery. Have a good day!" I said and left the room. I was really glad the surgery went well.

I started walking to my office when I heard my phone ringing. I saw that Liam was calling me and I was sure it was about Niall.
"-Hey, Liam!" I said.
"-Hey, love. I'm sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to ask if you could come and take Niall, we don't want him to drive. His fever is at 38.5 already and we are worried for him." Liam said.
"-Of course, I just finished my shift, I will be there as fast as I can."
"-Thank you, see you soon."

I hang up the phone and started getting ready to leave. I should've made Niall stay home in the morning.

Niall's POV

All I remember is that the interview was done and I was carried to a room by Liam. I could barely keep my eyes open and I could hear the boys asking me if I was ok. I didn't answer, I just fell asleep in Liam's arms.

After a few minutes, I heard your voice and I could feel your hand rubbing my arm.

You took me home after that, helped me change my clothes and stayed with me for the next days while I was sick. Three days this bug stayed around and it was horrible. I couldn't sleep or do anything on my own, but you were there to help me and make me feel better.
