II ⋅ Aina

Waking up in the late afternoon, Aina opens her eyes and takes a deep breath. She lets out a slight cough and she groans.

"Great..." Aina groans a little bit, putting a hand on her head. "I can't be getting sick..."

A chuckle from beside her wraps an arm around her waist and kisses her forehead. "You feel a little warm. Is your throat sore?"

"A little..." Aina replies coughing again. "Ugh... I'm gonna have to call out today..." She goes to grab her phone, but Will grabs it and looks at her. "Will... I have to call them."

"I'll do it. Let me make you some tea with honey. Get some soup simmering on the stove for you." suggested Will making her look at with half-lidded eyes and nods. Her hair a messy bun and her brown eyes began closing and she fell asleep again. Will chuckles again, kissing her head again and gets out of bed.

A ringing sound was coming from her phone which woke her up. Aina groans and opens her heavy eyes staring at the light from her phone. Bringing her hand out from the blanket and grabs her phone seeing Will calling.

"Hello?" She says raspy, answering her phone.

"Oof, you sound worse."

"Thanks, what every woman wants to hear, Will..." Aina said closing her eyes. "How can I help you?"

"Just waking you up so you can take the cold medicine I left out for you and eat the soup before it gets too cold."

"Aren't you sweet..." Aina said, leaning up from the bed then suddenly feels chilly. "It's cold..."

"You're running a fever, Ai, you're going to be like that. I set a thermos next to your bed with the soup, water and the cold medicine next to it so you didn't have to get up. I'll be home in the next few hours to come take care of you."

"... Thank you." Aina smiles looking over seeing the stuff. "I love you."

"Love you too, Ai," Will and Aina hang up and Aina grabs the cold medicine and water and takes it. 

"Ugh, today already feels like a long day..." Aina whispers, grabbing the soup and takes a few sips and then puts it back and lays back down. "I'm too tired to deal with this..." Aina closes her eyes and falls back asleep.

"Hey, angel... Wake up," Aina barely heard a voice call out to her. Aina opens her heavy eyes again and looks up at him. "Good evening, Ai."

"Mm..." Aina groans pulling the cover over her face. "Leave me alone... I just wanna sleep..."

Will chuckles and touches her head gently, feeling the heat coming out of it. "I'm afraid we can't do that, angel. You need to get up and take a warm bath, come on. It's waiting for you." Aina groans and gets up. Will could see how pale Aina was, and she glares at him. "I know you're mad now, but you'll a lot better when you get into the tub."

"Fine..."

And the rest of the day was Will taking care of Aina. Despite her complaining, she was really happy that he did that.
