Rest |Sick Ignis x Reader|

(Y/n)'s POV

Beep beep, beep beep.

'Agh, stupid alarm!'

I groan slightly as I open my eyes. I look around to see that everyone else is still asleep.

'Do they not hear this? They usually would be up by now... why hasn't Iggy woken them?Wait, why isn't Ignis up yet? I guess I'll have to wake the guys up myself. Maybe he didn't sleep well, I'll wake him up last.'

After thinking on who to wake up first, I pick Gladio, thinking he would be the easiest.

I put the phone by his ears and shake him slightly.

"Gladio. Gladio wake up. Wake up Gladio!"

He yawns before opening his eyes and looking at me.

"Could you help me wake up Noct and Prompto?" I ask. 'Preferably Noct.'

"Yeah, sure." He mumbles, stretching his arms before putting the phone next to Noctis' ear.

I turn to Prompto and start shaking him. "Prompto, get up. It's morning." He opens one eye to look at me before complaining. "Come on (n/n),  just five more minutes?" He pleads, earning a stern shake of the head from me.

"No Prompto, does Ignis ever let you sleep in?"

He stays silent, seeming to contemplate his answer. "No." He replies solemnly.

"Well then neither will I, so get up."

He squeezes his eyes tightly before sitting up and stretching.

"Speaking of Ignis, why didn't he wake us up?" Noctis questions sleepily.

'Oh good, he's up. I thought I might have had to help Gladio.'

"Well, he didn't wake up to the alarm, so I figured I'd let him sleep for a few more minutes." I respond sheepishly.

"Aww come on (Y/n), that's not fair!" Prompto complains.

"I'm waking him up right now, would a few more minutes have really done anything?"

"Yes." The three men reply at the same time.

'Really Gladio? You too?'

I sigh in defeat before turning to Ignis' sleeping form.

"Ignis, Ignis it's morning. The alarm went off." I say softly, rubbing his arm gently.

"So you wake us up by yelling, and you whisper to wake him up? Talk about favoritism." Prompto says, mumbling grumpily.

He groans before picking his glasses up and putting them on his face, sitting up during the process.

"Good morning (Y/n). Why didn't the alarm ring?" He questions softly, his voice sounding a bit strained.

"It did go off, but you didn't wake up so I woke you myself."

He seemed dazed for a moment before composing himself and nodding.

"Well then, we have no time to waste. We must head for Cape Caem as soon as we can." His voice sounds strained and hoarse, and his expression shows that it pained him to speak.

"Are you alright Ignis? If you're not feeling well we can stay here and rest. Caem's not going anywhere." Gladio says, shooting Ignis a worried look.

"I am completely fine Gladio, it just seems that I have gotten a cold. Nothing serious." He says, giving a reassuring smile.

"I don't know Ignis, you sound pretty bad." Noctis argues.

"I am perfectly fine. No need to be worried about me." Before anyone could say anything else, he unzips the tent and goes outside.

"I'm really worried for Iggy, he doesn't seem well." I say, frowning slightly.

"Well, it is Iggy we're talking about. I'm sure he won't hurt himself." Noctis says, trying to reassure me, placing a hand on my shoulder.

'I really hope so.'

***

The Chocobros and I are on the way to Cape Caem. The trip has taken all day and it's almost night. Ignis has driven the whole time, not taking any breaks to stop and rest, only once to eat.

No matter how hard I try, even though Ignis keeps reassuring us that he's ok, I can't shake the feeling that he's feeling worse than he's letting on.

"Hey Iggy, maybe you should pull over. You don't look so good." Prompto inquires, looking to the side at Ignis' pale face.

"Perhaps you are right Prompto. It is getting rather late. We should start heading to the nearest hotel. But I am feeling a bit nauseous, would you mind driving the rest of the way Nocti-" Ignis gets interrupted from his sentence as he goes into a coughing fit.

"Uh yeah, of course."

Ignis pulls over and Noctis hurriedly switches seats with him, seeing the worsened condition of his friend. Immediately when he sits next to me, I feel the heat radiating off his body, and I put my hand on his forehead. He tries to pull away when he sees my hand nearing him but I'm too quick.

"Ignis you're burning up!" I exclaim worriedly.

"Why did you let it get this bad? Why didn't you tell us you weren't feeling well?"

He looks down guiltily before responding. "I didn't want to worry any of you. I figured it was just a small illness and did not want it to get in the way of things. I did not want to be a burden."

I sigh softly and place my arm around him. "Look Ignis, you're not a burden just because you got sick. Everyone gets this way sometimes. But that doesn't mean you should let yourself get like this."

He stays quiet for a few seconds before responding. "You are right (Y/n). I should take better care of my health."

I smile and lean against his shoulder.

"Now, promise me that you will rest when we find a hotel."

"I promise (Y/n)." He replies. "But you should not be at such a close proximity to me, you may get ill as well."

"That doesn't matter to me Ignis. Besides, I'm already sitting next to you, so laying on your shoulder won't make much a difference." I reply stubbornly.

He sees no point in arguing with me and rests his head on top of mine. After a few minutes, I hear his breathing slow down as he falls asleep. I smile and close my eyes as well, falling asleep on Ignis' shoulder.

Third Person's POV

*click*

A small click and a flash emits from Prompto's camera as he takes a photo of the sleeping couple.

"I am so going to use this as blackmail later." He says, grinning evilly to himself.
