Sam and ash one shots

Sick Baby

Ashley

Amia coughs as she turns her head away from the spoon.

"Mia honey, you have to take this. It'll make you feel better."

She whines but I can tell she's too weak to put up too much of a fight.

I finally get her to take it and place a cool rag on her forehead.

I check her temperature under her arm and sigh when I see it's still pretty high.

She's been sick with a cough the past few days and the doctor says it's just a cold.

I handed off my work for the next couple of weeks to my team so I can be here with her because this is honestly torture.

Am I giving her medicine at the right time? Should I be doing something else? Am I giving her too many fluids?

The meds kick in and I can see her eyes begin to droop so I tuck her in a little more and kiss the top of her head.

"Get some rest baby. I'll be back."

Her eyes close and I quietly leave the room.

I'm in the kitchen pacing when Sam comes home but as soon as I feel her arms around me, I begin to relax.

"How's our girl doing?"

"She's okay." I sigh. "I hope. She's taking her meds but her fever hasn't broken yet. She's finally getting some sleep but I can't tell if she's getting any better and"

"Hey hey calm down love. I'm sure she's just fine." I take a deep breath and nod as I look over towards her room.

"I just hope her fever breaks soon."

She kisses the top of my head and leads me over to the door. We peek in to see her sleeping soundly and I sigh.

"See love? She's a tough one. She'll be just fine."

She kisses my cheek and heads off to change as I lean against the doorframe.

I'm always afraid that I'm not doing enough. Ever since what happened, I feel like I have to do everything just right or this perfect life of mine might disappear.

"Mama?"

My head jerks towards the bed as Amia begins to stir.

I'm at her side in and instant as she tries to sit up.

"I'm here baby. Are you alright?"

She rubs her eyes with her hands before tugging on my shirt.

I smile and gently scoop her up into my arms.

She cuddles up to my neck. "Hungy."

"Aww you hungry baby? That's good. It means your getting a little better." I carry her into the kitchen,dimming the lights a little so the don't bother her.

I'm about to try to cook something with her on my hip when Sam comes in and takes the pan from me.

"Uh uh. You just stand there and look cute with our little princess. I'll cook dinner." I smile at her and she kisses her cheek followed by my own.

"What do you want to eat sweetie?"

She peeks an eye out at sam. "Flapjacks."

Sam laughs and kisses the top of her head.

"Okay baby, flapjacks it is."

I lean against the counter, gently rocking amia as same begins to cook.

"I help! I help!"

Xavier runs into the kitchen and tugs on Sam's pants leg eager to help.

She agrees, and sets him on the kitchen so he can stir the batter.

"Okay buddy. Just stir this up and I'll cook it."

He nods and stirs the batter,his face full of determination.

After dinner, we all watch Moana on the couch because it's Amias favorite. Throughout the movie, Xavier kept checking up on amia and making sure she was covered up with the blanket. It was honestly the cutest thing I've ever seen.

They fell asleep cuddling and when the movie ended, we carried them to bed.

I checked Mia's temperature and sigh relieved that her fever broke.

I go tell sam as we're getting ready for bed and she smiles out of relief as well.

"I'm glad. Do you feel better now love?"

I nod and for the first time all week, I can sleep peacefully knowing my baby girl is okay.
