ARYA

I looked at the clock that was on the wall, he's been sleeping for four hours and I've been changing the wet towel. His fever is almost gone.

"Eli? You should wake up now, dinner's here." I tried to wake him up in a soft voice "Eli! Wake up, food's here. It's going to get cold." I tried once again.

He slowly opened his eyes, I sighed in relief.

I smiled at him "feeling better? The fever is gone so-" before I could continue

"Too close..." he mumbled

That was when I noticed. We were only inches apart, I could feel his breath. My eyes widened a little.

I cleared my throat while getting up and sitting in front of him, putting distance between us.

"Food's here! Let's eat!" I changed the subject.

He sat up slowly, picking up a spoon. He was about to take a bite when he looked at me warily.

I chuckled "Don't worry, It's not made by me. I ordered it online."

He continued eating without a word.

"When are you leaving?" He asked. As expected, he forgot that he himself asked me to stay. I smiled mischievously "I'll be staying here for the night."

"What!?" He yelled in his already hoarse voice

"Well, I can't go home since my stuff's not there and it would take some time to set up everything at my new place. Besides, you're not fully recovered yet." I chuckled smugly.

He just sighed at my excuses "Fine, but you're staying in the living room, got it?" He said while taking his last bite

"Got it!" I took a mouthful of food

"I'm going to rest in my bedroom. If you need something, don't wake me up. Just get it yourself." He said.

I narrowed my eyes at the rude man infront of me "I ud hay ha ham oo you." I said with my mouthful of food.

He scoffed "I didn't understand a thing you just said." He patted my head and left.

ELVIN

Did I really just do that? What's wrong with me? Did the sickness get to my head? Will she get the wrong idea?

I took a deep breath in an attempt to calm myself.

I suddenly thought about how close we were before. I could see every single thing about her face. I know we aren't on good terms, but I have to admit. She's beauti- I cleared my throat. I meant, She's pretty.

I layed down and pulled a blanket over myself.

ARYA

I layed down on the couch. I took a deep breath in.

I couldn't help but look around the house. it was plain, but also somehow fancy. Well, that's what I would expect from him. He's like that too, plain but fancy.
