You've Got Me Helpless

Angelica's Visit

(This is several weeks after Angelica's first few visits. By now Eliza's leg has healed.)

Eliza wakes up curled in a ball. In the middle of sleeping, she had kicked the covers off of her. She shivers at the cold temperature, and climbs back underneath the blanket. She sighs in relief at the warmth. She then falls back asleep.

You wake up, turn around, and see Eliza still asleep. You smile when you hear her soft snores. You get up and exit the room silently as to not wake her up.

When you enter the living room, you hear groaning from the bedroom. You crack the door open and see Eliza stretching tiredly.

You enter the bedroom.

"Good morning Eliza." You state happily.

She reads it sleepily.

"G-Good morning Y-Y/N." she stutters as she tries to open her eyes.

You press the back of your hand against her forehead gently, trying to check for a fever.

You then press your palm on her cheek, still checking for a fever. She keeps her eyes closed. Your hands are cool which allows her to relax.

She sighs as her eyes are now focused on you.

"Eliza. I think you might have a slight fever. Maybe we should get you to another room that's a little colder." You say as you pick her up bridal style.

Eliza looks at you sleepily until she snaps out of it and realises what you were doing.

"Y/N. I'm fine." She states, sounding a little more stubborn than she meant to.

You giggle slightly as she then boops your nose.

"Still. You should be in an area that's a little colder than in here." You say as you carry her to the next bedroom which is colder.

She shivers at the cold and grips your shirt.

"Y/N. I said I'm fine. It's too cold in here." She says trying to persuade you in to taking her out of the room.

"Well. You can try to prove me wrong, but you have a fever and I'm trying to help you get rid of it." You tell her placing her on the bed.

You cover her up in a fuzzy blanket. She snuggles into it, again enjoying the warmth.

"If I leave you with this blanket, will you stay in here?" You ask as you brush her hair out of her face.

She blushes slightly at the contact.

"Fine, fine. I'll stay in here." She says quietly.

You giggle and leave the room. Later coming back with a cool wash rag.

You place the wash rag on her forehead, hearing nothing but a sigh of relief and comfort.

"Thank you Y/N." Eliza says happily.

"Anything for you Eliza." You state, then walking out of the room.

Eliza relaxes slightly as she tries to fall asleep. Suddenly, flashbacks came to her. Memories and moments. She smiles as she remembers her favorite memory. When she met you.

You were walking down the hallways of your elementary school, when you were pushed by a herd of people, causing you to bump into someone and knock them over. "O-Oh! I'm so terribly sorry! I didn't mean to!" You apologize. ("Apologize") The figure then turns around to face you with a smile and a slight giggle. "No it's quite alright. These hallways cause these sorts of things to happen." She states, then holding out her hand.
