Young! Coriolanus Snow x Reader

Summary: You're sick and your boyfriend Corio takes care of you.

Warnings: Soft Corio

Author's Note: Yes I did double Corio but this was also requested by Yourannoyingyuh. Also, this takes place after the event of A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes so he has his place and money. 

I wake up to my head pounding, a stuffy nose, and a dry scratchy throat. I look over and see my boyfriend's side of the bed is empty which means that he's been up for some time. Regretfully I throw the warm covers off me and get out of bed. 

I shuffle through the apartment and to Corio's office where he's sitting at his desk doing paperwork. He looks up at my entrance and immediately jumps up from the desk and asks, "What are you doing out of bed?" 

He rushes over to me and walks me back to the bedroom. I'm already exhausted from my little trip and now I'm cold. Corio grabs an extra blanket and puts it on top of me. I feel my eyes starting to close as I drift off. 

When I wake next I'm sweating, I look over and see Corio pressing a cool damp cloth to my forehead. I let out a sigh of contentment as the clothes are draped across my sweaty and clammy forehead. As it sits there Corio runs his hands through my damp and sweaty hair. 

I'm soon forced to move from my comfortable position as my body is wracked with coughs. Corio quickly grabs the glass of water on the bedside table and once I've stopped coughing I take a grateful sip. 

He sets it back on the stand before grabbing a bottle and standing next to it. He opens it and pours a dark liquid into a spoon before passing it to me. I scrunch my nose up as the smell hits and Corio says, "Come on you need this to get better." 

I regretfully open my mouth and quickly swallow it so as not to let the taste linger on my tongue. I feel my eyes starting to droop again but I fight it wanting to stay awake. Corio sees my reluctance to sleep because he says, "It's okay baby, sleep." 

I mumble out, "Stay with me?" I don't hear his response because I'm already falling into the arms of sleep. 

When I wake next my nose is runny, I grab the box of tissues and start using it. After only about an hour my nose is red and there's a mound of used tissues littering the bed and floor. I hear the door open and I see Corio walk in. 

He comes over and kisses my forehead much to my annoyance since I don't want him to get sick. He asks in a concerned voice, "How are you feeling baby?" 

I manage to get out, "Better." He nods and says, "My grandma made soup do you think you would want some?" I nod as my stomach growls at the thought of food. 

He helps me stand up from the bed and he instantly wraps a blanket around me like a cloak as he walks with me to the dining room. He takes a seat next to me and his grandma gives me a sympathetic smile at my pale and weakened state. 

Once the soup is distributed I grab my spoon and get a spoonful of the hot soup but my hands are shaking too much and I almost spill it everywhere. I feel tears start to form in my eyes but I feel Corio take my hand. 

He finishes eating and when he's done he begins helping me eat my soup. Once my bowl is empty he helps me up from the table and leads me back to bed. 

Once I'm all settled in Corio changes into some comfortable clothes and climbs in with me. I settle myself on his chest and I hear him begin to hum a song. I feel myself relax into his embrace and I drift off to sleep for the night feeling better than before.
