What Does Love Feel Like? | ENGLOT one shots

Sulking

Synopsis: Camden wants attention. Ezra is sick. Who wins?

——————xx—————xx——————

Ezra felt miserable as she lay in her bed, tissue in hand and a thermometer in her mouth. She had come down with a nasty case of the flu and all she wanted to do was sleep it off. However, her girlfriend Camden had other plans.

Camden had arrived earlier that day with a backpack full of supplies. Chicken soup, cough drops, and even a stuffed animal to keep Ezra company. But all of Camden's attempts to get close to Ezra were met with resistance.

"No hugs or kisses," Ezra said, her voice hoarse from all the coughing. "I don't want you to get sick."

Camden pouted, feeling like a rejected puppy. "But I just want to take care of you," she whined.

"I appreciate it, really," Ezra replied. "But I can't stand the thought of getting you sick."

"Please, Ezra," Camden said, pouting. "Let me just give you a hug."

Ezra shook her head and reached for a tissue. "No, Camden. I don't want you to get sick. You might catch it."

"But I don't care." Camden insisted, crossing her arms. "I just want to be near you."

Ezra couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of Camden sulking like a child. "You're being silly," she said.

Camden pouted even more, making Ezra laugh. "Come on, Camden. You know I love you, but I just don't want you to get the flu."

Camden huffed and crossed her arms even tighter. "Well, I don't care about the flu. I just want to take care of you."

"Nope." Esra replied, shaking her head petulantly.

Camden crossed her arms, sitting on the edge of the bed. "You're being stubborn, Ezra. Let me take care of you."

Ezra shook her head, determined not to let her girlfriend catch the flu. But as the hours passed, Camden's pouting turned into sulking, which turned into downright sadness. She just wanted to be close to Ezra, to hold her and make her feel better.

Camden leaned in closer to Ezra, wanting nothing more than to hold her close and cuddle her until she felt better. "I promise I won't get sick," she said, her voice low and soothing. "Just let me love you."

"I appreciate it," Ezra said, her voice barely above a whisper. "But I don't want to risk it. You don't have to suffer because I'm sick."

Camden's face fell, and she sulked again, crossing her arms over her chest. "I'm not suffering, Ezra. I just want to take care of you. Please let me hug you."

Ezra stared at her girlfriend for a moment, hating the fact that she was making her feel so miserable. Finally, she gave in, holding out her arms for a quick hug. "Okay," she said. "But just one."

Camden's face lit up, and she dove into the hug, squeezing Ezra tight. "Thank you," she said, her voice muffled against Ezra's shoulder.

Ezra couldn't help but chuckle at Camden's enthusiasm. "You're a force to be reckoned with," she said, cuddling into Camden's embrace.

Camden smiled, her eyes shining with love. "That's because I love you," she said. "And nothing is going to stop me from taking care of you."

As Camden held onto Ezra, feeling warm and fuzzy inside, she couldn't resist the temptation to steal a quick kiss. She leaned in, feeling Ezra's breath against her face, and planted her lips on hers.

Ezra pushed her away, giggling. "Hey, no kissing!" she protested.

Camden's eyes widened in surprise, but she couldn't help but grin. "Aw, come on. Just one little kiss," she begged, leaning in again.

Ezra pushed her away once more, playfully. "Nope, no kissing. You'll get sick."

Camden pouted, feeling like a lovesick puppy. "But I just want to show you how much I love you."

Ezra smiled at her girlfriend's adorable behavior. "I know you do," she said. "But let's save the kisses for when I'm feeling better, okay?"

"Ughh, fineeee." Camden replied, snuggling closer to Ezra with a sigh.

Ezra couldn't help but smile at Camden's cute, sulky behavior. She knew that she was lucky to have such a loving girlfriend who would do anything for her.

Maybe being sick wasn't so bad after all.
