~Michael~
"Uggggh..." I lightly groaned, laying in my nest alone with my knees to my chest and hands on my stomach, I'd taken five heat suppressants today, they only seem to make me feel sicker. I felt like I could throw up (which is why I had a trash can next to me, just incase) and I was somehow hot and cold at the same time.
More than anything, I did not want to leave my nest, even when there was a knock on the door and I barely mumbled out that whoever it was could come in. "Hey, you gonna come eat dinner?" Posi peeked in, "Huh?.." I lightly sat up, furrowing my eyebrows, it's only like, 10 in the morning.
"Dinner? You gonna come eat?" She chuckled, I stared at the ground, genuinely confused, I couldn't have accidentally stayed in bed all day, right?
"It's the morning though..?" I started to feel dizzy, so I laid back down, compacted in the small space that was under Noah's desk.
"No..? It's 7'o clock." She tapped her fingers against the door, leaning up against it. Oh, okay.
"Oh. I don't want to eat." I curled back up, expecting to hear the door shut, but— "Nope, c'mon." Posi grabbed my hand, pulling me out of my nest. "Nooo, I feel dizzy.." I whined, she tisked her tongue. "You don't feel good because you're not eating. Rose made us pasta! Just a little bite." She dragged me out of my room and down the hallway to the kitchen. The bright lights and chattering instantly overwhelmed my senses, my peripheral vision going a fuzzy black, but I just shook my head and shut my eyes tight for a few seconds until it went away.
"No, that's chill, I got it." Lily was leaning against the counter on her phone, I think with Noah, writing down something in a notebook with full hands, the phone pressed against her shoulder so it would stay up.
Rose was busy serving plates while Alex helped her, and Posi was clearly talking to me, but I couldn't hear a word she said even if I tried. My ears were ringing continuously. "Michael." She flicked my forehead, it shut me out of a trance, "Huh? What?" My stomach felt queasy, the thought of eating that food made me want to vomit, I just might. "Damn, your heat makes you really out of it." Posi laughed, grabbing a plate for me and placing it on the counter in front of me.
I took a quiet breath, Posi rubbed my ears but for once it didn't help. "I need my nest.." I whined, ears falling flat as I looked up at Posi with shaky eyes. "Just one bite please?" She rubbed my back, I wanted to scream that I wasn't okay and I needed to lay, but I didn't. I just kept my head down and wrapped the pasta around the fork, bringing it to my mouth and taking a bite.
"Do you feel any better?" She asked.
I wanted to lie and say yes, but my eyes are darkening, my body felt warm and weak. So all I could do was shake my head, grabbing onto her arm and letting the black spots around my eyes consume me as I fell to the ground.
~Lily~
"It's nothing really." I said into the phone as I wrote down the surprisingly small list of stuff Noah needed me to get done this week.
"If it's too much just tell me Lil', I'm sure I can deal with most of it when I get back." Noah said from the other side of the phone, a sort of worry to his voice.
I smiled, "Nah, trust me, it's good." I suddenly heard a crash and the floor banged, I looked over to see an unconscious Michael laying on the ground.
"Oh shit." I widened my eyes.
"What?" Noah questioned.
"Michael's on the floor."
"Excuse me??—"
"Gotta go, bye bye." With that I hung up and put my phone in my pocket, seeing Michael waking up and getting help from Posi to stand, before he immediately fell into her arms, his knees weak. Oh, that's why he kept zoning out at me, he was about to pass out. My phone buzzed repeatedly with texts from Noah.
Boss
is Michael okay?????
did he pass out??
Lily I swear to god if you don't answer me
Me
he seems fine sir, he just fainted, probably sick from his heat
Boss
Should I come home?
Me
He seems okay, but I don't think he'd say no it, all he says lately is "I want Noah"
Boss
I'll try to convince my parents to let me come home a day early, tell me if anything happens okay?
Me
Will do
I looked over to see Michael sitting on an armchair, his head laying on Posi's stomach as she sat on the arm of the seat. Rose handed him a glass of water and he sipped from it slowly while Rose stuck a needle in his arm for a blood test. "I'm sure it's just your heat making you dizzy, but better to be safe than sorry." Rose smiled, the sound of her heels clacking against the floor as she walked away to her office.
Michael's tail flicked back and forth, probably getting some sort of stress scent all over the furniture. "I'm sorry I didn't listen when you told me you were dizzy." Posi's ears fell flat against her head as she played with Michael's hair, "It's okay." He finally said, playing with the rips on Posi's jeans.
"Okay—" Rose came back, paper in her hand. "The bad news is you're sick because you have an unhealthy amount of a drug called acetaminophen, basically you just took one too many heat supplements. Good news is you'll be fine, but you might be throwing up soon hun." She smiled and went back to the kitchen, speaking just before she walked away, "Oh, and don't take any more surpressents until your next heat." I pulled my phone out to text Noah what was happening.
Me
Michael is fine, just took too many heat suppressants so Rose told him not to take anymore until his next heat.
Also he's a bit sick still and will be for a few hours.
Boss
Shit, should I come home?
Me
Your choice, I don't think it's urgent.
Boss
My parents are being assholes to no one's surprise, I'd like to get away from them as soon as possible.
Can you book a flight for tomorrow?
Me
Yep, no pomegranate
tf
I mean problem lol
Boss
lol
~Michael~
The cramped space of my nest brought comfort as I laid in it, my back to the rest of the world and curling up into a ball against the wall. My phone buzzed as I carefully picked it up, tail immediately starting to wag as I saw the words across my screen.
