Zendaya ran her hand up and down your back to pull you out of your light sleep to check on your fever.

You've been sick for a couple of days now. She's sure it's only a cold, but to stay safe she keeps checking on your fever. Unfortunately, it is getting higher and it's worrying her.

She hates waking you up since you haven't been getting much sleep at all, but she's worried about you. She can hear how funny your breathing sounds - just another thing that's making her worry.

"Sorry to wake you, y/n. I just wanna check your fever again." She put the thermometer under your tongue and watched as you closed your eyes again. You feel too weak and too tired to keep them open.

Zendaya brushed your cheek softly, her thumb rubbing against your feverish skin. The thermometer beeped and she frowned at the numbers on it. 101.6.

"You need anything?" She asked as she ran her hand up and down your arm. She was only trying to bring you some comfort, but it ended up causing a chill to go down your spine. You shivered and she climbed back into bed with you.

She pulled you to her chest and ran her hands up and down your arm. "I'm sorry, baby." She whispered against your hair and pressed a kiss to your head. You raised your elbow to your mouth to cough into it, this time much more aggressively.

You sat up and Zendaya rubbed your back as you continued to cough. It kinda hurt, and when you finally stopped coughing you had to take a minute to catch your breath. "Oh, y/n. I think we should get you into the doctors tomorrow. If you get worse then we'll take you to the hospital."

You looked at her, suddenly scared. your eyes went wide for a second before tears started to sting behind them. "No, no hospital." You cried, your voice scratchy and your throat dry and sore.

Zendaya nodded her head and wrapped her arms around you. "Okay, okay. No hospital. It's okay, lay back down." She said softly and lowered you on your back. She kissed your cheek and looked at you with worried eyes. "Promise me if you feel worse before morning though, okay?"

You nodded and let out one more quiet cough before closing your eyes. She pulled the covers up further around you, up to your chin. She made sure you were cozy and warm before laying back down next to you.

"I love you, so much. I'm right here with you if you need anything." She kissed your forehead and ran her fingers through your hair as you fell back asleep.
