Note - Brought to you by me, feeling like I'm dying from injection side effects. Also this is my first character oneshot! And 400 reads is crazy, has it even been a week yet? I'm shocked - thankyou!

*Let's begn*
You woke up at 4:45am, your arm feeling bruised from your injection that Bruce had given you the day before. You tried moving into a better position, trying not to wake Wanda, who was sleeping peacefully next to you.

Laying on your stomach, with your arms above you, seemed to be the only position your body could tolerate. After a while, you drifted back to sleep.

You woke again to sun beggining to pour into your room, you groaned and grabbed your phone - only to realise that just half an hour had passed since you last checked. You threw your body back, deeply regretting it the minute your arm came into contact with Wanda. Both waking her up and sending a sharp pain throughout your upper arm muscle.

"What's the matter, baby?" The sokovian asked with her hoarse morning voice.

"Nothing." You grumbled, cuddling into her.

"Aww, my baby. Is it just not your day?" She stroked your hair as you shook your head, which felt very heavy for some reason.

After another hour of on and off sleeping, you got up to start the day. Getting dressed into suit trousers and a formal top for your meetings, sighing as you put on your dreaded heels.

You met Wanda and the other Avengers in the kitchen for breakfast, The room felt weirdly warm, though that could just be from the stove being on.

"Y/n, you okay sweetie?" Pepper Potts turned and asked.

"Yeah." You sluggishly replied, eating only half of your breakfast and not even touching your coffee before heading to your meetings.

*time skip brought to you by the agony my arm is in*

The meetings were a nightmare, you felt distracted constantly and unable to really focus. You were seriously sweating and your arm burned without relfief. By the time the 2nd meeting was over, it was lunchtime. You dragged yourself back to the kitchen before forcing yourself onto one of the bar stools.

"Are you sure you're okay Y/n? You look a bit off." Pepper asked again, as she and Wanda took their places either side of you.

"I'm fine." You smiled, it was a complete lie and everyone could tell. There were beads of sweat rolling down your neck, and you were shaking as you picked up your glass.

Wanda slotted her hand onto your forehead and frowned.

"You're burning. Bruce warned us this may happen. Come on, back to bed." You didn't even protest, letting her help you up and back to your shared bedroom.

Once there, she helped you change and tucked you under the covers. She then took your temperature, the bright red screen reading 103.4 was in no way reassuring to Wanda.

"I don't like this." You pouted, as she placed a cool flannel onto your far too warm forhead.

"I know baby, I know." She sighed, squeezing your shoulder as she got comfortable beside you.

You don't remember much of the conversation at all, except that at some point she gave you medicine and then you fell asleep.

*Time skip brought to you by my horrifc headache*

You woke up, it was now pitch black in your room except from the dimmed light coming from Wanda's laptop.

"Baby." You whispered, to get her attention.

"Oh my poor princess, how do you feel?" She asked, once again placing the back of her hand to your forehead, her expression softening when she realised you were still radiating with heat.

"Tired, aching, everything hurts." You croaked, loud enough for her to hear.

"Shh, go back to sleep, my baby. I've got you."

And so, you drifted back to sleep in your girlfriend's arms - reassured that she would stay by your side until you felt better again.

*The end.*

Note - I got stuck halfway through, I could do a part 2, I don't know. Also I feel like shit, I knew I'd feel sick but oh my, my body feels like its been smacked by a bag of bricks. All this from 1 little shot/injection/jab (don't worry it was safely done by my doctor) . My eyes also hurt, as well as my head and literally everything else - so I'm signing off for the night.

Have a good night/day/whenever you are reading this!
