Sick!L x Reader

"No. You need rest."

You argue as you place a hand onto his forehead, forcing him to lay back down.

"You have a fever of 102. I'm not letting you move an inch, and there's absolutely no chance you're going in today."

You continue as you keep your hand on his head.

"But...I need to work on the Kira case."

He protests, and you sigh in response.

"I'm sure the task force can survive a day without you. You need to put your health first."

You say as you release your hand, pulling your phone from your pocket.

"I'm going to call in for you now, so just stay there."

You continue as you speed dial the main phone for the Investigation Building, and it rings twice before someone picks up.

"Hello, this is the Kira investigation headquarters."

You hear someone robotically say, and you clear your throat slightly before speaking.

"Hey, it's (y/n). I just want to call and tell you that L won't be at work today. He's sick."

"Ah, I was wondering where you two were. So L won't be working with us today?"

He says in a suddenly not as monotone voice.

"No, he's not going in. He's really not doing well."

You answer as you run your hand through your locks, leaning against a wall as you sigh.

"Ah, no way. I understand. We'll be fine without him for a day, but Do you think he might be there tomorrow?"

He asks on the other line, and you spend a little while in thought before you answer.

"I'm not really sure. He's pretty rough right now, but I'll let you know if he gets better."

"Alright. Send him my condolences."

"Will do."

You answer as you turn back around. You then hang up and look towards your poor boyfriend, who was resting the back of his hand on his forehead as he let out a long sigh.

"Now, I'm going to go get a few Advils and a glass of water. Wait here."

"It hurts to drink water."

He complains as he looks towards you, and you go up to him and sit down as you feel sad for how sick he was.

"Awe, I understand. Do you want honey lemon tea instead?"

You ask as you gently run your hand down his cheek. He nods as he closes his eyes, and you silently get up and quickly organize the things you needed, while at the same time grabbing a pack of halls from one of the junk drawers in the kitchen.

"Here. This will help with your sore throat."

You say as you push one of the cherry flavoured hard candies through his lips. He frowns slightly when he tastes it, and he lets out a small sigh before he speaks.

"It's not very sweet."

"It's not supposed to be."

You answer as you blow on his tea a little bit. After he drinks that and actually doesn't feel nauseous afterwards, he slowly just falls asleep on the couch. You feel a little happier when he does so, because at least he was sleeping his fever off rather than staying awake to deal with it.

After awhile of him silently resting while he didn't move at all, you check his temperature again, happy to see it actually went down at least a little bit. While he was sound asleep just like you wanted him to be, you silently sneak into the kitchen and fill a towel with cold water before wringing it out and bringing it back, placing it gently on his forehead in hopes to make him more comfortable. You then climb up onto the couch along with him, and he wraps his free arm around your waist as he lets out a sleepy sigh. After at least a few hours of L quietly resting as he softly held you, he opens his eyes slightly before he looks down towards you.
