"Babyyy petal flowwwwerrrrrr!" Niall sang as you came into the room.

"Hi my love! How do you feel?" His face was pretty swollen, looked like he has a septum piercing, and he was just loopy.

"Fucking amazing!" He grins, eyes barely open. "Come gimme a kiss, sexy thang." He used an American accent.

The nurse giggled and you leaned over to give him a kiss on his forehead, fighting the blush. "So, what is my job as his home nurse?"

"He will need to sleep elevated with his upper body elevated to keep pressure off his head, there needs to be a humidifier in the room, make sure he stays hydrated, let him take the pain meds as needed, ice packs for the pain and swelling. In about two days, he will need to do the sinus rinses a few times a day, followed by the steroid nasal spray. I saw that you two have already scheduled your post op appointments, which is great. He will just need a lot of rest. He's going to feel like he's been punched in the face, which is the best way to sum it up."

You listened intently to her instructions, writing things in your notes on your phone. You had all of the nasal stuff ready and got a bunch of ice packs ready to go. "Great, thank you. Let's–"

Niall's hand had trailed down your back and squeezes your ass, "Now this is a peach!"

You blushed and move his hand away. "Let's get him to the car. It's parked out front,"

Niall was still asleep from his early morning procedure. You were downstairs, organizing everything that you two had picked up over the course of the week. You purchased a mini fridge for the bedroom for the ice packs and drinks for whatever so he wouldn't need to get out bed. It wasn't a debilitating surgery, but the ENT made it extremely clear that he would feel awful.

You grabbed the distilled water and saline packets, taking it upstairs, setting it up on the counter. You put more ice packs in the fridge along with some more water. You fill the humidifier carefully.

"Y/N?" He asks in a sleepy tone.

"Hi, how are you feeling?" You ask softly and carefully run your fingers through his hair.

"Like I fucking got ran over." He says quietly, eyes closing.

"Let's get you some more painkillers then." You murmur and open the bottle, putting the pill in one hand and water bottle in the other. You watch as he takes it carefully, letting out a soft whimper.

You sigh and kiss his forehead before grabbing an ice pack and wrapping it in cloth, cuddling into his side carefully. You press the ice pack to his nose the way the nurse showed you. "You're going to feel so much better after this baby." You remind him and kiss his cheek gently.

"It fucking sucks." He says quietly, eyes staying closed.

"Just give it time." You soothe and kiss his cheek gently.

"I love you." He whispers, shifting to lay on you, head resting on your chest. "You're such a good nurse. Should get you in a that costume in our box." He mumbles.

You feel a faint blush come to your cheeks. "Maybe when you're not feeling like you've been ran over." You whisper and rub his back gently. "Let's put on the golf channel." You say, grabbing the remote. "Or footie." You put on golf, but Niall was already half asleep against your chest. You stay sitting up, leaning against the headboard, holding him close.

-

You come in from taking the trash out, going to wash your hands when Niall walks into the kitchen. He watches you, leaning against the wall. He watches you pull out some things from the fridge. After a moment, he comes over and wraps his arms around your waist, resting his chin on your shoulder. "I ordered food in. Don't make anything. I'm going to take care of you tonight. You've been so amazing and patient with me Nurse Horan." He whispers and squeezes you gently.

"Oh darling, I love you." You murmur and lean into him a bit. "I love taking care of you, for sickness or health, my love." You remind him and turn around to look at him. His face was still pretty swollen and you knew he felt like shit. You lean in and give him a careful, gentle kiss.

"And I want to show my appreciation with covering dinner tonight." He says and rubs your sides and squeezes your bum gently. "Because I need to take care of you in health." Niall smiles.

With another smile, you lean in and give him another light kiss.
