Rain is an absolute sweetheart. Yes, he bounces off the wall on normal days, yes he'll be the most annoying creature in the room on his best days, no he won't deliberately cause serious troubles or discomfort to any single soul.

Phayu realized this fairly early in the relationship. Beneath all the bratiness and sunshine personality, Rain is oddly perceptive and sensitive to others. It didn't help that Phayu, by nature, was a possessive person.

Unraveling his Darling's nature, knowing him on a personal, vulnerable level fed his protective instincts.

This, however also meant Phayu was prone to be extra careful (Saifah is lying, Phayu isn't overprotective) and borderline mother-hen when Rain's unwell.

It starts on a normal Friday night, Rain's nose feels stuffy, he's wearing an extra layer of clothing, and he's less loud, but overall he is fine. He comes back from college to Phayu's house, and weirdly enough the first thought that registers is that he wants to sleep.

That's not what he was planning to do anytime soon.

Friday nights are usually movie nights, Rain plans it every week if the schedule permits. And so he ignores the signs that he is indeed falling sick.

Rain chooses the movie, sets up a few refreshments, orders dinner for both of them, sets up blankets and fluffy pillows, and waits.

Now, how this was supposed to go was Rain surprising Phayu with a hug, barrelling straight to him, peppering his face with tiny kisses, and then once his hubby washed up, he'd tuck both of them in the blankets for the evening.

What Phayu comes home to, is his rabbit-personified boyfriend fast asleep on the couch bundled up in layers of duvets and the dinner order kept on the doorsteps. This is not a usual occurrence so obviously Phayu panics for a second.

Just a second, no more.

But upon further inspection, all he finds is a little warmer body temperature than normal, but not concerning enough. Yes, he restocks on all of Rains favourite snacks, double-checks fever patches and medicines that can be taken if something does happen, and also checks the blankets are washed up and ready to use if needed.

No, its not going over the board, its just that he cares for his boyfriend and likes to be prepared for the worst.

Nothing happens for two days, they spend the weekend as they usually do, madly in love that they forget the world exists out of their love lair, as Saifah kindly reminds them frequently.

What Phayu royally misses is that Rain being pliant under his ministrations is not intentional, Rain knows where and what to say to divert his hubbys attention from him to, well him.

Phayu tends to be tunnel-visioned when his baby is involved.

Rain spends the weekend ignoring a knacking feeling that something is wrong with his body, on Monday morning he surely wakes up with body pain but successfully hides it as nervous jitters because he has a group presentation.

The presentation is also why he keeps quiet about his condition, no one likes to delay the presentation just because one member of the group is sick, Rain knows that obviously!

The presentation goes well, theres a few hiccups, and Rain almost gets caught slipping but it ends well, on the professional end to say at least.

They get praised for their performance and good grades. They prepared hard for this, what they didnt prepare for was Rain fainting in the cafeteria.

Phayu is done with his blueprint when he gets a call.
