sean wakes up on the couch to find mia's head resting on his shoulder. he looks at her for a moment, seeing how peaceful she looked when she was sleeping.

he notices her lips slightly parted, probably due to the fact that she couldn't breathe through her stuffy nose. he goes to gently brush a piece of her hair away from her face but is interrupted by the buzzing of his phone on the coffee table.

he snaps himself out of his trance, wondering why he ever was in it in the first place, and carefully lifts mia's head off his shoulder, replacing it with a pillow. he walks over to his phone to be disappointed by the mere instagram notification on his screen.

he sets his phone down and makes his way to the kitchen, immediately starting up another soup based dish for mia's cold. after that, he racks his head trying to remember the home remedy his mother used to give him whenever he got sick.

while sean is faced towards the kitchen stove, he's startled by mia's sudden coughing fit. he turns swiftly to face her and starts walking to her with a glass of water in one hand. he helps her sit up, with one hand on rubbing back, and hands her the water.

"thank you," she says in a quiet voice after finishing half of the glass.

he nods and walks back to the kitchen.

"i made you some more soup," he says while setting the bowls on the counter. "and this tea that can basically cure you within a few hours."

mia stands up and is taken aback by sean's recent streak of kindness. however she doesn't question it, in fear that her noticing could set off some snarky remark.

"i'm just going to wash my face, i'll be back in a bit," she says and walks to the bathroom.

sean takes a seat on the stool and just as he is about to put the spoonful of soup into his mouth, he hears his front door unlock.

"seaaaannnn!" julian's voice echoes throughout the apartment, followed by the slamming noise of the door.

"morning," sean says sleepily.

"so, how's that film project of yours going?" julian says as he proceeds to open sean's fridge to search for food.

"i was planning on filming some of it today actually," sean says bluntly.

julian's eyes widen and he shifts his body to face sean. he looks at him worriedly, "today? are you sure about that?"

sean sighs, "it'll be fine, i promise. you know me."

"yeah that's exactly why, sean. i do know you," julian frowns.

"i'm feeling a little bet-" mia stops herself once she see's julian. "oh, good morning julian! how are you?"

julian sneaks a glare at sean then turns his attention towards mia. he smiles, "i'm doing great, mia, you?"

"better than yesterday," she shrugs and starts to pull out the stool to sit next to sean. "so, what brings you here jules?"
