Hanzo's POV
I felt warm finishing my soup but, feeling Jesse hugging me made feel even better...He's able to make any situation better. He can make a dark, boring bedroom amazing. I picked both of our bowls up and brought them to the sink. I sprayed some water on them and left them, too powerless to wash them. I walked back to the bedroom and laid down, head hurting and stomach full. I felt Jesse lay down next to me and I cuddled him as always. I sneezed and entered a coughing fit which lead to Jesse pulling us up. He patted me on the back until I calmed down and said, "We should buy ya some medicine." I could only nod, my throats was sore from coughing and I felt as if talking would just worsen it. I began to pant as I heard sniffling and I looked up. I completely forgot Jesse was sick too, he can't go out just to get me medicine so, before he walked out I tried to protest.

"Jesse, your sick too, don't force yourself to do something small for me."

"Darlin, you and I both know I'll do anything for ya. Don't worry bout me.", he said in a warm, consoling tone.

    I weakly smiled at him, thankful for his persistence, thankful for him. He put on his serape and started out the room. I bundled myself in the covers due to the absence of his heat and I laid there as I heard the front door close. I closed my eyes, attempting to sleep, but I couldn't. I've grown too used to sleeping in his arms that I can't sleep without him. I've grown so dependent on him. I pulled myself up and looked around the room and then to the window. The rain never lifted and the land was still being showered. Just seeing the cold weather and rain made me even chillier. I pulled the sheets tighter around me, desperately trying to produce heat.
   
    I shivered as I sat in bed, missing Jesse. I laid back down again, deciding that it's going to be awhile. But, to my luck I heard the front door open again. Excitement flared up inside of me and I sat up immediately. The doorknob turned and I began to feel giddy. He walked in and I held my arms out, desperately wanting to be in his embrace again and sure enough he hugged me. I inhaled his rainy cowboy scent, smiling.
    He pulled away and presented a medicine bottle to me. He pulled off the cup and poured some into it. He handed it to me and I downed it. The thick syrup caressing my throat, leaving a medicinal taste behind it. I shuddered at the taste and immediately chugged a bottle of water I have had.
    Jesse quickly took off his serape and hat then laid down with me. I clung onto him and closed my eyes. We didn't have to say anything because we always had a way of exchanging silent words. I loved it, I never had to over explain things to him.

    I fell asleep rather quickly because the medicine made me drowsy but, also because Jesse was here.

I'm exhausted, its 6 in the morning, I got no sleep and I'm mildly delirious. I feel clingy, sad, and insecure and I just want ice cream with Red Bull. I probably won't really remember any of this because I'm so tired lmao
