Lexi's POV

I feel like something's not right here.
And why am I here?

"Theo, I'm not feeling well... not at all," I say weakly, and I feel myself getting dizzy.

"Wait, I'll get you a cold towel and some water. I'll be right back, darling." he answers frantically.

I watch him leave and hear some glasses clinking from the kitchen. It doesn't take him a minute to get back.

"Here, drink this and put the cold towel on the back of your neck. I'll quickly go upstairs and get you something sensible and cosier than this blanket to put on." and he was gone again.

I do as he says and drink the water and put the towel on the back of my neck.

I put the bottle of water on the table and lie down neatly on the couch and close my eyes.

Seconds later I notice Theo coming down from upstairs and asking: "Are you still awake, dear? I brought you your favourite shorts and one of my shirts. Come on, I'll help you."

I try to sit up again so that he can help me better.

He pulls the blanket off my body and pulls his shirt over me.

"Now you have to lie down again, darling, or can you stand up?" he asks, slightly amused.
"Lie down." I reply curtly.

"Okay, then lift your legs and I'll pull your pants over you," he murmurs.

I do as he says again and mumble myself into the cushions of the couch.

"I'll be right back, don't run away," he says but I don't notice him leaving.

I try with all my might to stay awake, but I can't. I'm so tired.

I'm so tired..

The next morning:

I wilt around briefly and try to open my tired eyes, through a small crack I realise that it is already daytime and the sun is shining through the windows of the hut.

I hear the birds chirping outside, rub my eyes sleepily and sit up.

I look around and see that Theo must already be up.

A cheerful whistle sounds from downstairs and I have to smile.

But as I smile to myself, I remember last night and that I wasn't feeling so well.

What else happened yesterday?

I fell asleep on the sofa, didn't I?

We drank so much last night, it must be because of that.

Hello hangover.

I close my eyes for a moment and listen to the birds chirping before I decide to go to the bathroom.

Just as I've finished in the toilet and washed my hands, I hear Theo outside the door: "Hey, are you going to be long? I have something for you.

I open the door and am greeted with a passionate kiss.

"Good morning, dear. Did you sleep well? Are you feeling better? Look...I made you breakfast." he says caring and proud.

I look at the bed and see a tray with a generous breakfast of coffee, orange juice, croissants, eggs and various fruits.

I have to smile and say:" You are unbelievable! I'm sure I'll feel better after this breakfast! Thanks Teddy!" I say, hug him and give him a kiss on the cheek.
