"Is it possible to not move the bed so aggressively?" I remarked as it felt as if Andy was shaking the bed.

"I'm not darling. Are you ok?" Andy asked.

"I just feel blah,"  I told him.

I was dehydrated and not feeling good after spending the entire weekend in the sun.

"Do you have a fever?" Andy asked as he came over to me.

"No I just feel like a balloon deflated," I told him.

"I think we need to get you some water," Andy told me.

"And probably a Gatorade. I think I'm dehydrated," I remarked.

"Gatorade? I'll see if we have some, if not I will run to the store," Andy told me as he kissed my forehead.

I smiled as I closed my eyes. I loved being in the sun but the sun did not love me.

After a few, Andy came back up with water and ginger ale.

"We don't have Gatorade so sit tight darling and I'll be back in 30," Andy told me as he kissed me goodbye.

"Ok love you," I told him.

Andy paused at the bedroom door.

"Love you more," Andy told me.

I smiled as I sat up to sip on the ginger ale. I was just not feeling myself and knew that I needed electrolytes to feel better.

After a while, I put my ginger ale down and readjusted, and lay on my side. I was hoping to put the focus of my blah-ness into sleeping it off after getting the Gatorade in me. 

Soon enough, I heard the front door shut. 

I heard Andy shuffling downstairs and finally heard his footsteps coming up.

"Hi darling," Andy told me as he came over to the bed with Gatorade.

"Hi," I mumbled as I grabbed the bottle of Gatorade.

"I hope you like the blue flavor that's all they had," Andy told me as I readjusted and sat up.

"It's perfect. Thank you love so much. You are the best," I told him as I kissed his cheek.

"I'm going to go make some toast for you," Andy told me as he disappeared back downstairs.

I slowly drank from the Gatorade bottle. I didn't want to drink too much too fast.

Andy came back up with two slices of toast.

"I didn't put anything on it just in case you were feeling woozy," Andy told me as he handed me the plate with toast.

"Thank you love you are the best," I told him as I took a bite of toast.

"Of course darling," Andy remarked as he kissed my forehead reassuringly.

I sighed as I ate quietly.

"Mind if I join you?" Andy asked.

"No of course not I would love your company," I told him as I finished one of the pieces of toast.

"Good I was hoping you'd say that," Andy replied with a smile.

He crawled back onto his side of the bed.

"You don't feel crappy?" I asked him.

"No not really darling," Andy told me.

"Damn, you are quite lucky. I feel like shit," I told him.

Andy pouted at me.

"We will make sure you feel back 100% by tomorrow darling," Andy told me.

"Thanks love I appreciate it,"  I told him.

"If I were you, I'd go to take a shower and then come back to bed and get comfy," Andy suggested. 

"That's a wonderful idea," I told him as I put my plate on the side table.

I took a long sip of Gatorade.

"Put comfy clothes on darling," Andy told me as I went to gather my things to shower.

"I will," I told him with a meek smile.

"I'll be here waiting for you," Andy remarked with a small smile.

I smiled back at him and went to shower. I hoped my troubles would wash away. 

I stayed under the showerhead for what seemed like an eternity. 

After I turned the shower off, Andy was by the door.

"Everything ok?" Andy asked.

"Yes I'm fine just getting dressed now," I told him.

"Just wanted to make sure," Andy replied.

"Thanks love," I told him.

I finished getting dressed and came back out to the AC in the room. It felt good. 

"I opened the windows too to let some sunshine in darling," Andy told me as he watched me walk to the bed.

"I got to say it again you are the best," I told him as I crawled back into bed next to him.

"Of course through sickness and in health," Andy told me.

"Thank you," I told him as he brought me close to him.

"Now just focus on getting some sleep now darling," Andy told me.

I sighed as I rested my eyes. 

A restful day was in store.
