Who's writing for who:
Ryan: Nova
Sherman: Me

Ryan had caught a cold, being forced to stay in bed by Adam, who had been bringing him cups of chicken noodle soup from 294 since he can barely taste anything, let alone breathe. He had a nasty sinus infection. He was sleeping for a little while until he woke up, groaning softly and flipping over. He had a headache from congestion.

Sherman felt much better than he did yesterday. He actually got a good night's rest and he feels a bit more refreshed. He was currently bringing Ryan some noodle soup from 294, he let Adam take a rest since he helped him yesterday with his work. He knocked softly on Ryan's door and slowly opened it, "Ry?" He said in a soft tone.

"mm... Hey.." Ryan mumbled, peeking out from under his covers and coughing a little. ".. heard you got hit by an SCP.. you okay...?" His voice was horribly scratchy, trash can filled with snotty tissues. He had some medicine on his night stand too, and jack had left his crochete 999 with him too.

Sherman nodded, "I'm fine, I was just very sleep deprived yesterday but I got rest and I'm better." He smiled softly. He walked into the room and gently closed the door behind him, "I got you some soup." He said as he sat at the edge of the bed next to Ryan.

"mm.. thanks dad.." Ryan mumbled, slowly sitting up, grabbing a tissue to blow his nose. "Honestly i could really go for a taco or something, but they don't ever give us that stuff here.. huh?" He blew his nose and tossed the tissue, pulling the blanket he was using up around his shoulders.

Sherman shook his head, "Sadly no they don't." He took a spoonful of soup and brought it toward Ryan's mouth "Open up Ry."

"h..huh..?? I can eat it myself..." Ryan mumbled again, groaning a little over his headache. "...maybe not at the moment... Okay..." He opened his mouth, taking the bite of soup.

Sherman smiled as Ryan took the bite of soup. He continued to feed Ryan until the soup was gone. Once done he put the now empty bowl on a table next to the bed.

"...could you uh.. stay for a little..? I don't like being alone when i'm sick, but i know everyone's busy.." Ryan mumbled softly, coughing into his arm and groaning softly.

"Of course I can. I don't have any work to do until tonight." Sherman said with a soft smile. He ran a hand through Ryan's hair softly. "I'll be right here."

"thanks sherman...." Ryan curled up under the blankets, trying to fight the lull of sleep. "..i hope you know that we all love you.. like... A lot.."

Sherman smiled and teared up slightly, "I love you all a lot as well..." He said as he bent down and gave Ryan a forehead kiss. He started to hum 'You Are My Sunshine'.

The humming slowly lulled Ryan to sleep, though he did reach out and held shermans hand before he fully fell into his slumber.
