Don't neglect your health

One shot - Don't neglect your health

Author's Notes

I'm sad that there are so few stories about Sheriff Labrador, even sadder that there are so few with the Officer Dobermann x Sheriff Labrador ship. I'll definitely do some stories with the two of them like this, but I hope more people write stories with the two of them together in the future! Until then, I hope you enjoyed this short story, have a good read!

PS I don't know how they measure fever in the United States, because here where I live it is measured in Celsius, so I changed it to Fahrenheit, correct me if I'm wrong.

Doberman and Labrador House - 5:00

Labrador was alone in bed, Dobermann, his boyfriend, was working overtime on the night shift and would finish later that day.

He wakes up to the alarm clock, but his body didn't want to get up, Labrador felt severe muscle pain and a terrible headache, in addition to feeling chills all over his body.

The omega knew that these symptoms meant that he had a fever and that he should rest, but he couldn't afford that luxury, there were several cases to solve and people in need of help, he needed to work.

Labrador forced himself to get up and take a shower, his body protesting with the effort, but he didn't stop.

After putting on his uniform and eating something, despite not wanting to eat, he quickly left the house, heading straight to the police station.

Police Station - 6:00

Labrador managed to get to the police station at the last minute, normally he would have arrived 15 minutes earlier, but his body was not in the same state as normally.

In the office, Dobermann was concentrating on the computer, he didn't notice that Labrador had arrived, probably finishing a case report.

Papillon, on the other hand, had just come out of the kitchen with a pot of coffee and saw him coming in.

"Sheriff Labrador! Good morning!" She greeted him excitedly, heading towards the sheriff, his light scent of wild raspberries accompanying her.

"Good morning Officer Papillon." Labrador tried to greet her back with the same enthusiasm, but he was so sick that he could barely speak as loudly.

Papillon, noticing the tired and pained expression on the sheriff's face, became worried.

"Sir, is everything okay?" She asked the beta with a worried voice. "You don't seem in the mood."

"I'm great! Don't worry." Labrador replied with a forced smile, not wanting Papillon to worry about him. "Ready for another day. I just need some coffee."

Papillon was promptly going to give the sheriff a mug of coffee, but when he handed the mug to the omega, Dobermann, who had been sitting at his desk until recently watching everything, took the mug before Labrador took it.

"Dobie! What-"

"You do not look well." Said Dobermann, interrupting Papillon and placing the mug on a nearby table. "Your body is shaking and your face is red."

With that Labrador got nervous. Dobermann knew him very well, especially his tendency to go to work even when he was sick or tired, as they had been dating for a year and had known each other for 2 years. Labrador didn't want the Alpha to worry about him or stop him from working.

"That's nothing Dobie. I'm just a little cold." He said trying to dissuade Dobermann to leave him alone.

But the Alpha wasn't convinced. Before Labrador could react, Dobermann placed the back of his hand on the sheriff's forehead, his eyes widening at the elevated temperature.
