Warning: minor cussing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You woke up snuggled next to Murphy listening to his soft snores. He looked so peaceful with his hair falling over his face. You snapped back to reality realizing that you had class in a good hour. Slowly you tried to escape Murphy's arms without waking him. You eventually got up and left a little note on his desk. Before leaving you parted the hair that covered Murphy's forehead and planted a kiss on it. You quietly shut the door behind him and left to grab your bag and head to class.

You sat down beside Monty "Hey guys." you sighed.
"Whats wrong?" Monty asked.
"Nothing, just tired I guess." You slouched down on your chair.
"Hey Monty!" Jasper said sitting beside him "Do you still have some of that moonshine?" He asked.
"The wha-" you were cut off.
"Its nothing y/n, Jasper is just being stupid as always" Monty sighed.
"Hello class!" Pike's voice boomed "Today's class will be about how to stay warm during the harsh weathers on Earth."
"Why do we need to learn this anyways, we aren't heading to Earth anytime soon" Connor interrupted.
"But!" Pike said approaching Connor "Its been a long time since we left Earth, I honestly think it's safe by now"
"Whatever" Connor said rolling his eyes.
Pike walked back to his desk to do the attendance. "No Jonathan Murphy" he said a smile slowly playing on his lips.
"Its going to be a long class" you sighed.

After class was over you quickly ran out the door to look after Murphy. Once you got there you called out his name. Worry washed over you as you didn't get a reply. You ran into his room to find him asleep, almost in the same position you left him in. Has he been sleeping the whole time? You asked yourself. You shaked him lightly. He didn't wake up. You shaked him a little bit harder almost forgetting hes sick. His eyes slowly opened.
"Oh my god," you said running your hands through your hair "I thought you were dead"
"Why would I be dead?" he smirked weakly "I'm not that sick"
"Yeah right," you laughed "you were puking all day yesterday."
"Speaking of puking," he said covering his mouth.
"Oh gosh" you said helping him up and bringing him to the washroom. You rubbed his back and looked away. You hated seeing him like this, all you wanted was for him to be healthy and happy again.
"Shit," he said leaning against the cold wall "my throat hurts."
"I can make you soup if you want" you said moving his hair away from his face.
"I could go for soup right now," he said "I'll probably throw it up again later" he raised his eyebrows.
"C'mon" you said getting up and lending out a hand.

You lead him to the kitchen where you found packs of perishable chicken noodle soup.
"Do you want this?" You asked.
"That's what I threw up" Murphy said looking at it disgustingly.
"Its the only soup you have hear" you said shaking the pack.
"Can't you cook something else?" He whined.
"I'll just make you this its good for you" you said reading the back of the box.
"Fine" he said sarcastically.
"Fine you copied back mockingly as you boiled water.
He laughed softly.

Once you were done making the soup you poured it in a bowl and placed in front of Murphy.
"Drink it while its still hot" you said sitting in front of him.
"But its too hot" he countered back.
You laughed "class was boring without you" you sighed.
"What did Pike say?" He asked sipping his soup.
"Nothing, just smiled" you shrugged.
"Connor and the rest?" Murphy asked.
"They were being idiots as always," you said leaning backwards in your seat. "I don't understand why you're friends with them."
"I'm not friends with them, they're friends with me" he argued "and if I hang out with you and your friends, I'll be seen as a nerd, and I don't want that"
"Wow" you said placing a hand on your chest playfully "I'm hurt"
"Love you" he winked.
"Love you too" you laughed.

While Murphy was finishing his soup you looked over to where his flu pills were. The bottle only had 4 pills left, two for today and two for tomorrow meaning that Murphy's dad will have to work harder to get more pills.
