TW: MENTIONS OF HEADACHES AND VOMITING
It was a rainy day. you were sat in your bedroom, watching TV with your dog at your feet, snoring.
Your boyfriend was doing a work experience with yours and his best friend.
It was getting late and you needed rest desperately. You turned the TV off and cuddled up next to your dog. You grabbed your phone to check the time. 2:20am. Bf/n still wasn't back. They must have had to go overtime although that wasn't normal for something like this. You didn't mind, hoping you'd wake up in Bf/n's arms in the morning. You decide to text him before you went to sleep.
"Hey baby, has that work experience gone overtime or something? It's pretty late, you guys must be working hard. Have fun and I'll see you in the morning 😘"
You wait a couple minutes for him to reply but he didn't.
"He must be really busy" You thought, so you just went to sleep.
*time skip*
You wake up with a jolt to your phone ringing. You looked at the time. 5:10am. Bf/n wasn't there. You answered the phone without looking at who it was. You were too tired.
You put the phone on speaker after you answered.
"Hello?"
"Hey Y/n" You hear a sweet voice one the other side of the phone which you placed as your best friend.
"I don't mean to worry you or disturb you but Bf/n is really freaking out"
You were confused.
"What do you mean?"
"I couldn't really make out too much. We were just working about 5 or 6 hours ago and then he just suddenly dropped to the floor, holding his head. He mumbled to me that he felt dizzy and sick and his head was killing" They sounded like they was going to cry.
"We don't know what to do"
You knew what this was. Bf/n gets migraines often but you had always been there everytime it happened.
"Okay, thank you for telling me, I'm on my way"
"I'll be 20 minutes, in the meantime put him in a quiet room with little light and try and find and ice pack for his head if you can"
You heard rustling down the phone which told you they understood so you just hung up. You went to your ensuite bathroom to grab some pain killers and went to the kitchen to fill up a bottle of water before you left the house.
*time skip*
You caught a taxi down. You got out, thanked and payed the man and went up to the front door. You were only wearing a leather jacket over your pyjamas and some flip flops on your feet. You looked ridiculous but oh well. No one will care.
The door opened before you could even knock and there stood Bsf/n.
"Hi" They smiled and opened their arms. You hugged them.
"Hi"
"Follow me"
After walking down to the bottom of a long corridor Bsf/n stopped at a door. They held their hand out to the door in a 'voila' way and smiled again. You thanked them before they excused themselves.
You open the door just enough for you to fit through, making sure little light was let in. It took you a few seconds for your eyes to adjust to the dark. In this room was a sofa on one end of the room and a little table with a tiny lit candle on the other.
On the sofa lay Bf/n. He lay with his hands covering his face and his knees tucked into his chest. He was sniffing loudly. He groaned at the small disturbance.
"Oh baby" you whispered as quietly as your voice would allow.
You rushed over to him and sat next to him. His eyes were closed but he wasn't asleep. You brushed your thumb over his cheek. It looked and felt very flushed and was wet under your finger tips. Water dripped onto you fingers as you touched his cheek. He was crying.
You kissed him on top of his head. He reached an arm out, trying to hold your hand. You held his hand.
"Shh shh, calm down, you're okay" You tried to reassure him.
You let go and took out the pain killers and water from your bag. You opened the packet and found his hand again. You popped two into his hand which he immediately put in his mouth. You opened the water and held it up to his lips. He took small sips, his eyes still closed.
Just then, Bsf/n walked in. They smiled at you. They had an ice pack in their hand, wrapped in a dish cloth. They handed it to you and sat on the arm of the sofa as Bf/n rested his head in your lap and you put the ice to his forehead. Your other set of fingers ran through his soft hair. He opened his eyes for the first time, looking up at you and smiling. His eyelashes were clumped with tears.
"Close your eyes" I said and hovered my hand over his eyes to make him shut them.
You and Bsf/n had a whisper conversation, in which you told them about Bf/n's migraines. They nodded along. You looked back down at Bf/n. His eyes were shut but he was smiling. The pain killers started to react.
"Feel better?" You whisper asked him. He slightly nodded.
"Can you help me get him in the car?" you whispered to Bsf/n.
"And by help you mean for me to carry him, no?" They said with an annoying smile.
"Yes" You sighed.
"Your wish is my command" They bowed.
You slapped them on the arm and went to call you guys a taxi.
You and Bsf/n lifted Bf/n slowly and carefully when the taxi arrived, one getting the top and the other getting the bottom half of his body. You knew the shift in postion would upset Bf/n but there was nothing you could do about it. He let out a cry when he was lifted and it broke your heart. You went to get his things and put them in the taxi. You lay Bf/n in the backseat and hopped in next to him and Bsf/n went in the front. You let Bf/n's legs rest over your lap.
*time skip*
You thanked and payed the man, who wished Bf/n a get well soon. He smiled at the kind words. Bsf/n had stopped off sooner as they lived closer than you. You helped Bf/n stand up, holding his hand and in your other hand was his things and your bag. At this point he could open his eyes a bit better.
When you were finally in your bedroom, you lay Bf/n in the bed and put his stuff down. He lay on his side, the ice on his head and he shut his eyes again. You went downstairs to make Bf/n a cup of tea to help him sleep better. When you returned, he had disappeared, worrying you.
You put the tea down and looked around. You could hear noise coming from the bathroom. You opened the door and found him curled over the toilet. He was heaving and crying loudly. You bent down next to him. He couldn't stop being sick. You knew he could throw up from this but you hoped you'd given him his tablets before it got to this point. You held his hair back with one hand and rubbed his back with the other, telling him to get it all out. He cried between each gag.
"My head hurts!" He whined.
You waited for him to finish then helped him clean his mouth out and get back to bed.
Normally you were the little spoon but tonight was reversed as he rested his head on your chest and you entwined your fingers in his hair. He looked up at you.
"I love you baby"
"I love you too"
He soon fell asleep and so did you.
