"No, I'm fine, trust me. I can come with, I feel great!"

You said with a raspy voice and stuffed nose.

"Baby, you're clearly sick. I'll be ok on my own for this interview I promise. You stay here and sleep so you can come to the next one"

You groaned, hugged your boyfriend goodbye, and then snuggled up in bed watching your favorite movie. It was the second week of press for season two of Billy the Kid and you had planned on going to Tom's interview with him per usual. However, you started feeling sick yesterday which only got worse today. Being sick not only meant you had to skip the interview but it also meant that you were stuck alone in the hotel all day. With nothing better to do, you decided to draw a bath after you finished your movie. The steam and hot water felt good, so good that you got more hot water once it went cold. You decided to put on season one of Billy the Kid as you were missing Tom and wanted to watch it again. Halfway through the season, you hear a knock on the door. You knew it was Tom because you guys made a special knock indicating it was one or the other. 

"Come in"

The door opened to reveal Tom still wearing his interview outfit, with a cup of tea, medicine, and crackers.

"Here, drink this and eat these, I bet you haven't eaten all day"

He sets the cup of tea on the edge of the bathtub, hands you the crackers and medicine, and gives you a kiss on the forehead. He was always so good at taking care of you which was a quality you loved about him. The show was still playing on your phone which earned you a,

"I see someone is enjoying my show"

"Oh shush, I was getting lonely and wanted to rewatch to soak in more information"

"Uh huh suurreee"

"It's true! Don't laugh at me mister! Thank you for the crackers by the way. How did you know I was craving them?"

Tom chuckled and shook his head.

"I guess I can read your mind. I mean I've known you for five years, it would make sense"

"Hmm I guess so. My own personal mind reader"

You both laugh before Tom turns to the door.

"I'm going to change now, do you need anything else?"

"Could you bring in my shirt and shorts? I forgot to grab them before I came in."

"Yeah, of course. Then we can get all cozy in bed and finish watching me on the TV"

He smirked before walking out to change and grab your clothes. Once he came back with them, you got out of the bath and made your way to the bed; tea and crackers in hand. Setting the tea and crackers on the nightstand, you get under the covers latching onto Tom who was waiting for you. He flipped to Amazon Prime and started Billy the Kid from where you left off. Usually Tom doesn't like watching himself on TV but because you were sick he made an exception.

"You know that Billy the Kid character is kinda hot. I wonder how he doesn't have all the girls, look at him!"

You say jokingly, burying your head into Tom's chest. His body shook as he laughed saying quietly,

"Well that's because he already has the only girl he'll ever want"

You look up at him and smile. What a goofball he was but you loved him nonetheless.

"Wow, she's one lucky lady. She must have it all"

"I'd like to think she does. Maybe you could ask her"

Looking away you give a "I'm thinking" look, hum a little bit, then look back at Tom saying,

"She says she does and that she's the luckiest girl in the world to have someone like you to take care of her"

"Someone's gotta take care of the sick person but I'm not complaining because I love taking care of you, even if you're half delirious"

"Me? Delirious? Never ever"

"Oh be quiet and watch the show, look Billy is back on!"

Tom kissed your forehead as you turned your head to face the TV. As soon as you shut your eyes, you were out for the night. Tom noticed this and pulled the covers over you a bit more.

"Goodnight y/n, I love you to the moon and back"
