luke placed a cold, wet wash cloth over victoria's burning forehead, brushing loose strands of hair away from her face.
"get away from me before you get sick" vic complained as luke kissed her cheek.
she was tucked under the covers in their hotel room with a glass of water and some pills on the bedside table. there were only three days left and victoria had managed to get sick. she had started with a fever that progressed into vomiting a few hours ago.
"im not gonna get ill just let me look after you"
she was pouting at the fact that in the morning they would be travelling to italy and she was stuck in bed. also the idea of moving from her current position made her feel queasy, she got motion sickness at the best of times.
"luke i think i might be dying" vic groaned rolling onto her side and gripping her stomach.
"you're not dying you've just caught a bug" he laughed sitting on the edge of the bed.
victoria didn't like being sick and she was the worst patient ever. luke had got her some crackers to eat, constantly checked her temperature and had been there to comfort her when she had vomited in the toilet.
"it's not funny, i'm so sick and you're gonna catch it from me"
"i won't i have a strong immune system. half the crew have had it and i'm still fine"
'half the crew' was an exaggeration but there had definitely been something doing the rounds, a couple of their staff taking ill over the last week.
"get away from me lu. share a room with michael"
luke rolled his eyes used to victoria's complaining and independence. he didn't mind taking care of her after all of the times she'd helped him when he'd drank too much.
"if i left you'd complain about being alone so stop whining and move over"
victoria had been spread across the entire width of the bed all day so there wasn't much room for luke to get in to sleep. she had missed last nights show which was frustrating for vic.
she assumed it would grow old watching the same songs being played but every show she noticed something new, picked a different favourite song and enjoyed herself even more. she had become acquainted with various crew members from stylists to caterers, instrument technicians to security.
on top of watching luke every night and spending most of her time with him she also appreciated all of the beautiful places she had had the opportunity to visit
"vic babe you're seriously burning up i really should get someone to call a doctor"
victoria's body was clammy. luke imagined that if he poured cold water onto her it would make a sizzling sound and steam off. even though she was hot to the touch, vic was shivering beneath the sheets wanting to be closer to luke.
"it'll pass by morning" she mumbled curling into his side.
he didn't have the heart to detach himself from her and figured he'd break away when she finally managed to drift to sleep.
luke was embarrassed when vics hand mistakenly brushed over his hardened dick, it really wasn't appropriate to be so needy when vic was sick.
"you can't possibly be hard because of me right now"
"you'd be surprised" luke scoffed taking her hand to move it away.
"its like when monica tries to seduce chandler when she's sick. you're meant to be grossed out by me"
luke kissed her head laughing at the friends reference. vic's eyes were beginning to drop, hopefully she would end up getting some much needed rest.
"you're still beautiful even when you're vomiting at two in the morning" he teased brushing back her knotted hair.
