Groaning is what woke Christen up making her sit up and look at Michelle in concern. They just finished the concert yesterday, and they were supposed to go out exploring today before flying to Puerto Rico the next day but it seems like Michelle would be staying in bed.

"Hey, you okay."

Michelle moaned and turned to face her wife, her nose kinda runny and her head throbbing.

"Chrissy, I'm dying."

Christen reached over to feel her forehead, and she was burning up. Her voice was also scratchy and her whole body just feels so heavy. Chris watched as her usually energetic wife, now looked like a baby, all tangled in the sheets.

"You should go back to sleep, I'm going to cook something for you."

Michelle hummed and gave her wife a tired smile.

"Really? You're gonna do that for me?"

Christen nodded making Mitch silently cheer.

"Yay, I love you so much, I don't honestly know what I will do without you."

Christen looked at the camera with a small smile on her face.

"Mitch rarely gets sick, and when she does, she is extra soft and clingy. So this is going to be interesting."

"What happened the last time she got sick?"

Christen turned red and looked away from the camera, already giving everybody in the room an idea on what happened.

"We both ended up being sick together but it was worth it."

Christen walked down only to see that the kids were going out with Finneas. 

"Hey, you guys coming? We're exploring the city."

Christen gave them a kind smile and shook her head.

"Mitch is sick, I'm staying here with her."

Isabella looked at her Mama concerned.

"Is she okay? Do you want me to stay? Does she need anything?"

Christen smiled amused at her eldest daughter and chuckled, shaking her head once again.

"We'll be fine, you know  how your mom is when she gets sick, she just needs a little more rest and maybe some soup, I'm gonna make one for her later." Christen saw that she still had a concerned expression making Chris put her hand on her shoulder in reassurance. "Don't worry about her, she's a big girl. You go out and enjoy our last day here."

Isabella nodded but looked at the direction of the stairs. "Fine, but I'm gonna have to talk to her first before we leave."

She looked back at her friends who gave her a nod but followed her up the stairs, wanting to make sure that Michelle was okay. While they were up, Stephanie and her husband's room opened.

"Hey, you're not coming with them?"

"Nah, Rui is sick, I have to stay here to look after him."

"Mitch is sick too. I was about to make her soup."

"Great, I was going to make chinese herbal soup for him, we could just double it."

Christen nodded and they started gathering the ingredients so they went out to the market since the asian market was just a block away.
