The night has been so damn exhausting. After his first vomiting Erl was sleeping for about an hour but then he woke up and threw up again. And not just once, he ran into the bathroom to throw up every twenty to thirty minutes and of course I always followed him there to hold his hair back and to show him my support. Now it's ten o'clock and Erling is sleeping peacefully but unfortunately I will have to wake him now because the doc will come here to do covid tests. I'm pretty sure we both will be negative but I get why Erling is worried and to end those worries we will get tested.

I enter our bedroom and sit down on our bed's edge. Erl lies prone and I can see a lot of sweat on his forehead. Also his hair is pretty much soaking we from all the sweat. Seeing him like that breaks my heart, I love this man so damn much and I really hate it when he's feeling bad. I just really hope he's gonna feel better in a few days. I will do everything to make sure he will.

"Erling. Wake up, my love. The doctor will be here soon and I think you should take a shower. Do you think you can do that with my help?", I say whilst stroking some part of his hair out of his face. He shrugs but let's me help him sit up. His body is shaking heavily and so I have to support him constantly whilst he gets out of bed and enters the bathroom. Having arrived there I help him take his clothes off and pretty much carry him into the shower. With my help it only takes a few minutes and so we're sitting on our sofa about fifteen minutes later, a warm, fluffy blanket wrapped around Erl and me hugging him. "I'm scared that this test will be positive.", he whispers with shaky voice and I notice that he's close to crying. I pull him a little closer and whisper: "I'm sure it won't be positive. Probably you've just eaten the wrong thing or one of the employees at BVB had some digestive system problems and gave that to you. Don't worry, Erling, everything is gonna be alright." And as if our minds are the same we both suddenly start singing:
"Don't worry, about a thing
'Cause every little thing, gonna be all right
Singin', don't worry, about a thing
'Cause every little thing, gonna be all right", just like he did in Bad Ragaz last summer. Well... What should I say... Fools seldom differ.

A few minutes later the doc is there and we both get tested which takes only a few minutes, then he leaves again and Erl and I decide to watch a movie. Since he hasn't thrown up for almost three hours he decides to try to eat a little again. I make a chicken noodle soup aka I cook some noodles and then put some pre cooked chicken bouillon on top. With two bowls of soup I walk back to our sofa. I hand one to Erling and sit down very close next to him again. We start the movie, it's the French comedy monsieur Claude and his daughters and we need a long time to eat our soup because we're laughing almost constantly, the film really is hilarious. And it's exactly what we need right now.

As we're both done eating we lie down. Erl snuggles up to me from the side, placing his head on one of my boobs and wrapping an arm around me. I hold him very close and just give him the warmth and closeness he needs right now. That seems to really comfort him, his body stops shaking after some time and he falls asleep. I just watch him sleep peacefully and keep being there for him because that is what he needs right now. Love, comfort, support, closeness. And I am sure that not only that but also our negative tests will make him feel better tomorrow. And until then I'll give him everything he needs.
