My Saviour | Woo Do-hwan

Thirty One

Halfway through watching an episode of their chosen series to watch Lily began to notice she would soon be about to have an episode and fall asleep, for however many minutes.

"Are you alright sweetheart what's wrong?"

"I don't feel too good, I feel like I am going to have an episode."

She couldn't help but feel a little panicked, although Lily had done this many times since she was first diagnosed with norcolepsy whenever she was about to faint it still felt like a very daunting prospect. Only when did she feel Do Hwan rubbing her back did she begin to feel at ease with what was about to happen very soon.

"Hey, it's okay I'm right here I promise I'll be right here with you I'm not going anywhere."

For a few moments, Do Hwan held her close making sure she wasn't stressed and ensuring she was relaxed and calm. Until a few minutes later when things started to pick up pace, she began to feel dizzy.

Deciding to move off of the bed and on to the floor she managed to do so with some help from Do Hwan, though even just doing something as simple as this left her feeling very weak almost as if she were to have gone on a five-mile run.

Only moments away from fainting and needed her equipment to help her through each episode.

"Do Hwan... I need my... Weighted blanket."

Without a second to lose she watched as he disappeared only to return very quickly, in a split second she felt the weighted blanket putting it under her right side tilting her towards her left taking pressure off of her back as he gently lay her down on it.

"Do Hwan..."

"Shh, it's alright I'm here. Just relax It's okay, It's okay."

Before Lily knew it she had blacked out as she felt her limbs go limp.

Coming round again it was an odd sensation she could feel throughout my body but she knew she need to wake herself up and prepare myself ready if and when she would be expecting to fall asleep again.

"Hi, Jagi it's alright, it's alright do you want some water?"

Feeling Do Hwan rub her back helped her to relax and was a great comfort to her as she gave a small nod and accepted the water.

Rolling on to her side Lily let out a deep breath before moving on to all fours. She continued to take deep breaths but it was becoming increasingly difficult.

"Are you okay darling? Do you want to sit up for a minute?"

"Yeah..."

In one swift and gentle movement, Do Hwan had helped Lily sit up. He held her close continuing to give her sips of water while rubbing her back with his free hand. Though she knew by the way she was feeling she would end up having another episode and falling asleep again very soon but it was nice to take a break even if it was just for a second.

Thank you, I'm... Sorry for being a nuisance."

"Hey, don't say that you're not at all. It's alright to struggle with things when you feel unwell."

With a small smile, she tilted her head a little and soon found her lips on his.

"Thank you, Do Hwan."

Pulling back from the kiss she stayed in Do Hwan's arms for a little while longer as she tried to catch her breath, but still felt unwell and felt like she was going to fall asleep again.

"you okay, Lily?"

"I don't know, I still don't feel too good. I think I'm going to fall asleep again."

"That's okay, it's alright, I've got you darling I'm here.", he said softly.
