You watched Nayeon's eyes slip shut as you placed your hand against her forehead. Your heart sank in your chest just a little upon feeling that her fever has returned yet again.
It's not all that surprising, considering she has the flu. But it's saddening to you nonetheless to see her so sick.
"Your fever is back. But, the good news is that it's been a few hours since you last took some medicine so you can have another dose now." You mumbled as you brushed your fingers through her short locks and then brushed your lips against her forehead, which caused a hum to fall from her lips.
Your touch and kisses always bring her relief and comfort; something she needs when she's this ill.
She was already falling back asleep by the time you came back from grabbing her more medicine and pouring her some fresh cold water. You caressed her cheek until her heavy eyes opened.
"How's your stomach feeling? Weak still?"
She shook her head, much to your relief, and then swallowed the medicine down with a few sips of water after you put the pills into her mouth.
"I still feel awful though. Being sick is the worst. Plus, look at all that I'm missing right now. I hope the girls aren't disappointed."
"Not at all, Nayeon. I know you want to be in practice and the studio with the girls, but I already spoke to Jihyo last night when you first got sick and I've been updating her throughout the day. You need to rest more than anything else right now and they all agree with me on that."
She pouted, wishing she could join the girls back at work. Because she misses them and she loves what she does.
But there's no way she can do any of it right now with her much her entire body aches so terribly and how sensitive her stomach is.
She hasn't eaten anything but some crackers, which didn't exactly settle well on her achy stomach just a couple of hours ago, when she last threw up.
"You'll be fine in a few days, but you have to be patient and let me take care of you."
She cracked a smile and gazed down at you.
"Well, I do like that I have some time to lay in bed and curl up with you."
"I like that, too. Do you feel okay? Stomach aching? Feel nauseous at all?"
"No. I'm okay." She replied as she closed her eyes.
"Want some soup?"
She groaned at the thought of eating, worried it would cause her stomach to flip again. But she knew she had to try.
"Okay." She mumbled before she began to shiver. "I'm so cold."
You grabbed her another sheet and draped it to her shoulders, hoping that she'd warm up.
"It's alright, baby." You soothed as she continued to shiver for a second before she relaxed and started to warm up. "I'll be back in a few minutes. If you need anything, yell for me."
She just nodded weakly, planning on sleeping until you returned.
You made your way downstairs and made her some soup. You made sure it was warm, but not too warm, and that the bowl had more broth than noodles since that would help her throat, which you know is sore from throwing up.
You took the stairs slowly and then made your way into the bedroom.
Nayeon was sound asleep once again but her eyes opened when you softly whispered in her ear and kissed her warm cheek.
"Can you eat a little for me?"
"I'll try." She mumbled and sat up slowly.
You put a couple of your pillows behind her, stacked up against the headboard so she'd be comfortable.
"Okay. Just take it slow."
She nodded and swallowed some of the noddles and broth as you put spoonfuls up to her lips. You made sure she took a little more broth in, so it'd help her throat.
"I'm getting full." She said only a minute or so later.
She hadn't eaten that much, but she had a little something in her now and that was what mattered. You also didn't want to push her too hard too fast and risk making her stomach turn again.
So after just two more bites and two more spoonfuls of broth, she was pushing the bowl away gently to signal that she was done.
"Feel okay?" You asked curiously as you put the bowl down on the nightstand.
"Yeah, I'm alright. Just really sleepy." She said and lied back down, cracking a tiny sleepy smile when you tucked her in again. "Can you cuddle me again?"
"Of course." You smiled and laid down next to her before moving behind her and kissing the top of her head. "I love you. Hope you feel better soon."
"I will. I've got you here to take good care of me and to cuddle me. I'll be fine soon, I'm sure."
Your heart melted a little and you brushed your fingers through her hair until she fell asleep. You just hoped she'd rest deeply for a while because she truly needs and deserves it.
