*You had just got back from Florida as you did spend two extra days there to hand out with Demi and Matthew. Dominik flew back two days ago with Kona and Skylar, but you haven't heard from him in a day, which you didn't think much of. You walked up to the front door of you and Dom's house, tired but excited to see Dominik after a long flight. You turned the key in the lock and stepped inside, immediately greeted by the wagging tails of Skylar and Kona. Your smile widened as you crouched down to pet them, but something felt off. The house was quieter than usual, and Dominik was nowhere in sight*
You: Dom?
*There was no response. You furrowed your brow and stood up, your shoes clicking softly on the floor as you walked toward you and Dom's bedroom. The dogs followed closely, having nothing else to do. You pushed open the door gently and found Dominik curled up under the blankets, looking pale and flushed. You quickly made your way over to the bed. You knelt by the bed and brushed the hair away from his forehead.*
You: Hey, babe...What's going on?
*Dominik groaned and opened his eyes, which were a little glassy*
Dominik: I think I'm sick...My head's pounding, and my throat hurts
You: Oh, Dom... Why didn't you call me? I would've come home sooner
Dominik: Didn't want to worry you, plus you were having fun with Demi and Matt. Figured it was just a bug.
*You sighed and kissed his forehead gently, noting how warm his skin felt*
You: You're burning up. Let me get you some medicine and make you some tea, okay?
Dominik: Thanks, hermosa. I just... feel like I got hit by a truck
*You stood up and hurried to the kitchen, quickly preparing some herbal tea and grabbing some pain relievers from the medicine cabinet. When you returned to the bedroom, you found Skylar and Kona already curled up by Dominik's feet, offering their own kind of comfort. You sat down beside him again, carefully handing him the tea and pills*
You: Here, take these. You'll feel better soon
*He did as she said, sipping the tea slowly before sinking back into the pillows as you start running your fingers through his hair*
Dominik: I'm sorry I'm such a mess right now
You: Shh, don't apologize. We all get sick sometimes. I'll take care of you, just like you take care of me
*Dominik smiled weakly and closed his eyes, already starting to relax under your comforting touch*
Dominik: Te amo...
You: Te amo también..Just rest now. I'm not going anywhere
*As Dominik drifted off to sleep, Paige stayed by his side, watching over him and making sure he was as comfortable as possible*
The following day
*You sat beside Dominik on the couch, her brow furrowed with concern. Dominik was wrapped in a blanket, looking pale and exhausted. He'd had for sure caught a nasty cold, and you were determined to take care of him. You had already called Hunter and told him that Dominik wouldn't be able to be on RAW on Monday and he said that was completely fine and hopes that Dom feels better. You placed a gentle hand on his forehead, feeling the warmth radiating from his skin before brushing a few strands of hair away from his face*
You: You're burning up
Dominik: I feel awful, babe
You: I know, but I've got you. Don't worry
*You smiled, leaning down to plant a soft kiss on his forehead. You stood up and walked into the kitchen, grabbing a glass of water and some medicine. Returning to the living room, you handed him the water first then the pills*
You: Drink this, and then take these. It'll help bring your fever down
Dominik: I hate being sick
You: Everyone does. But you're lucky you have me
Dominik: Yeah, I definitely lucked out
*You settled back onto the couch, wrapping her arm around his shoulders, Kona and Skylar laying on the floor on their blanket. Dominik leaned into you, resting his head against your shoulder. You held him close, gently stroking his hair as you two sat in silence for a while*
You: You just rest, okay? I'll make you some soup later
Dominik: Thanks..You're the best...
