READERS POV. (2nd person)

        Today was just not your day, you woke up happy until you stood up off your bed and face planted onto the floor. You tripped over your own blankets which made your get tangled into them. Valerius your lovely boyfriend decided to laugh at you instead of helping you up. After that amazing wake up call you decided to make breakfast before Valerius had to go to a meeting. Everything was going well until you managed to get distracted and burnt the food. You thought Valerius would get mad at you or at least annoyed but he simply gave you a chuckle. That's when you knew he was at least in a good mood (for once). You decided to give up on doing anything that morning so you sat down on the couch. A few moments later you heard Valerius give you a loud "goodbye" before rushing off to do his responsibilities.
         Which leaves you where you are right now still laying on the couch but now with a burning fever and a runny nose. You managed to get sick somehow and Valerius is already at work. He doesn't even know that you're sick, he left right before you started sneezing up a storm. You felt horrible, your head was pounding and your nose was running like a river. You definitely were not a pretty sight. You heard your stomach rumble as it clenched in pain. 'I just had to burn the food didn't I' you think to yourself.  You were starving so being the smart person you are tried standing up.
        You stood and your legs buckled right away, your fragile body flopped down onto the couch. You mumbled some curse words under your breath and with a shaky hand picked up your phone (pretend they use phones). You didn't really want to bother Valerius but you were way to weak to do anything yourself and you were starving. Going against your better judgement you started typing in Vals number. You second guess yourself for a moment before deciding that your seriously hungry. The phone rings for a few minutes until a grumpy Val answers the phone.

VALERIUS POV. (1st person)

        I am walking towards my meeting when I begin thinking about MC. Just the thought of them this morning makes my lips twitch upwards until I see someone walking towards me so I wipe the small smile off my face. Everyone knows we're together, I made sure of that but that doesn't mean I want to show others my weak side. I continue my walk towards the meeting room still lost in thought until I almost walk into someone. I jump slightly and smooth out my shirt. I look up to see I ran into Volta, this makes me roll my eyes. I don't bother apologizing as I walk past them into the meeting room.
       People chat for a while as I sit alone waiting for the meeting to start. The obnoxious talking comes to a halt as the Countess enters the room signaling the start of the meeting.

TIME SKIP:

       It was the middle of the meeting and all I could think about was MC. Even though that was nothing new, they were acting strange this morning. Yes they normally are clumsy but not that much. I was lost in thought once again when I hear a phone ringing. I don't think anything of it until I look up and see everyone staring at me. I whip out my phone and look at the screen, I see it read MC's name. A confused look crosses my face because they know not to call during meetings. "Must be important then" I mutter before standing out of my chair and stepping out of the room.
       I answer the call and hear a few coughs in the background before MC starts speaking. "Hey Val" they speak in a whisper like tone. 'They sound horrible' I think before responding with a "hello". "Do you th-" is all MC manages before coughing once again. I start getting worried right when they finish coughing and immediately blow their nose. They sniff a little and just utter a small "I'm sick." "Unfortunate, but why was it necessary to call me?" I begin getting a tad annoyed, I know they are sick but I'm meant to be in a meeting right now. "Well I can't stand..... and I'm starving" they mumble sounding almost disappointed in themselves. I think for a moment before saying "I'll return to you after my meeting." I quickly hang up the phone and enter the meeting room once again.
          'I need some wine' I think as Countess gives me a questioning look. "Consul what is wrong MC never calls during these meetings?" The Countess questions me with an intense like stare. "They are not feeling well" I speak in a low tone as I a send a glare towards the people with eyes on me. The Countesses eyes go wide as she says "why are you still here then!" "We have a meeting" I speak in a bored tone. Her eyes go even wider if that's possible as she tells me to leave and go to them. Not wanting to upset her I quickly stand and make my way to me and MC's room.

TIME SKIP:

       I enter the room and see a mountain of tissues near the couch. I steadily walk over to MC and see them fast asleep under a blanket. My heart beats a tad faster at the adorable sight and I decide to make them some food. I sneak into the kitchen and begin making some soup.
         After making them some soup I creep over to them and lightly shake their weakened frame. They wake up and blink tiredly at me, rubbing the sleep from their eyes. They notice the soup and give me a grateful smile.
       We both sit together for the rest of the day, me trying to get MC feeling better as MC coughs ever minute. 'This is better than any meeting' I think while giving MC a small smile as they close their eyes once again.
