Anonymous asked: Hi! If you're still taking requests would love one with Florence x Reader where the Reader has appendicitis. Flo comes home from filming to find the reader burning up and in pain. I went through a bit of a traumatic health thing last year, and something where Florence helps the reader through this sounds nice :)


Summary: Florence comes home to find you burning up.

AC: I've never had any appendicitis pain, so I hope I covered this well for you! Enjoy xx

Florence was coming home today after weeks of being away shooting her next movie and you've missed her dearly. The way she was able to bring out the biggest smile on your face no matter how low or ill you were, she was always able to make you feel better by simple just being in the same room. She called you early in the morning to let you know she was just about to board the plane which only led to your excitement to build up.

You made the house extra clean, made some lunch all while ignoring the pain in your stomach. You thought it was caused by you being over excited to see your girlfriend are weeks of Facetime calls and restless nights, but that idea quickly came to a distant thought when you tried to take Billie for a walk, every step only made the pain feel worse and eventually you had to turn back home.

It was only a matter of hours until Florence would be home and the pain was only getting worse with every jarring movement. But still, you told yourself excuse after excuse to avoid ruining the moment you saw Florence's wide smile walk into the room with her luggage at her feel and her arms open wide for a warm hug that you missed so much. Billie on the other hand could sense the pain you were in and refused to leave your side, laying at your feet and following you into every room until you gave up and decided to lie in bed until you heard Florence's car pull up, Billie curled up close to you.

By the time you heard the car pull up in the driveway you were breaking into a sweat, unable to move without the pain stabbing your sharply making you hiss to yourself. Billie didn't move an inch, even when she heard Florence announce she was home. "Darling?" you heard Florence call, her voice getting closer to the bedroom as she made her way up the stairs. Quickly you wiped any sweat from your face onto your shirt and painfully made an effort to sit up just before Florence entered the room.

"There you are" she smiled softly, "Are you okay?" she asks, you nod and smile softly back, "just had a little nap, that's all" you assure your now worried girlfriend, "how was filming?" you asked to change the topic as she walked over to you and sat on the edge of the bed besides you. "Are you sure? Darling, you're sweating" Florence ignores your question with a concerned frown before placing a hand over your forehead,

"Baby, you're burning up!"

"Flo, I'm fine, I promise" you smiled softly even though you knew she didn't buy a word you just said, "Lay down, you're staying in bed" she insists, you try your best to shuffle to lie down but the pain made it too obvious to Florence that something else was wrong. "Honey, can you move?" she asked, slowly you shook your head. "I've been having this sharp pain in my stomach since I woke up and it's just getting worse whenever I move" you finally admit, your hands holding your stomach in hopes to ease the pain.

"Right, we're going to the emergency room right now" Florence stood up and pulled the covers off you.

"Baby, please no, you just got home"

"I don't care darling, you're in pain and you're burning up. You need to be looked at" she replies as she helps you throw your arm over her neck.

"Well, Miss Y/L/N, you have an inflamed appendicitis" the doctor says looking up from the clipboard. "W-will I need surgery?" you asked as you squeezed Florence's hand in fear, in response she kissed your temple and whispered that everything would be okay.

"I'm going to give you a script for antibiotics to use for a week, if nothing changes, we will operate" he informs you. "Thank you, doctor" Florence steps in taking the script from his hand, "take 1 tablet in the morning and another after lunch. I'll have the nurses book you in for another scan in a week's time, if at any point you feel even worse, please come back as soon as possible" he adds before leaving the room.

"I don't want surgery" you looked at Florence with eyes full of fear. "Darling, it's okay. We'll take the antibiotics first and hope we don't have to come back but if we do, I'll be right here, okay?" she assures you as she brushes a lock of hair out of your face, "now get some rest while you have the morphine" she adds with a soft smile and a kiss on your lips.
