Roses are RED?

chapter 23

Rosalia's pov

I could feel my body being held in someone's arms, though it was comforting I was physically drained too tired to do anything all I can is move a bit to make the person notice I'm awake.

"Rosa, hey love" I heard Bruce whisper into my ear, with all the strength I had I managed to turn myself so I was facing him with a tired smile on my face

"How are you feeling"

"B... better" I barely let out noticing my battle he stretches to get me a glass of water next to him giving me to drink

"Thanks"

"Don't mention it, now tell me how are you feeling"

"Awful, I'm guessing that I got a fever" I said pointing at the wet cloth on my forehead

"Not exactly, though it was a close call" nodding I try getting up to go to the bathroom I felt filthy maybe after a shower i'll be much better

"Where do you think you are going" he asks rushing to my side

"I need to take a shower I'll feel much better"  I say and he nods helping me get there, once we got to the bathroom he helps me sit on the toilet while he fixes the shower to the right temperature and pour

"Wait here, lemme get a stool for you to sit on while I help you shower"

"Huh help me shower, no I'm capable of doing that myself" I say semi horrified

"Ooh hush we both know you can't do this yourself, you haven't fully recovered, by the way we have done this before remember when your chemo was still starting and it's not like I have not already seen you" he finishes of smirking

"Yea but there is blood"

"Hush now, if I minded I wouldn't be here now take off what you can lemme get the stool" nodding he walks away

"Ohh don't forget pad, panties and cloths please any comfy clothes will do" I call out, he yells an ok acknowledging my request

"Well Rosa this is royally embarrassing" quickly I take off my clothes make sure I roll the pad in tissue before throwing it away , not wanting to stain his toilet seat I decided to lean on the shower wall while being sprayed water o didn't even know when Bruce came back

"Hey sorry I took long, here seat lemme just get rid of my clothes" he said as he took of his sweat pants and shirt leaving him in just his boxers

"Not sure what would be more comfortable I brought your blue pj pants and shorts then t-shirt of mine"

"Shorts it's alright thanks"

"Alright, let's get you cleaned"  he stepped into the shower knelling to my length before he started washing me careful make sure every inch of me was cleaned, about 30 minutes later I was already dressed and in bed surrounded by warmth while Bruce changed into dry clothes.

"How is my baby feeling" he says existing the closet walking towards me

"I'm good" I say a blush creeping up my face, Bruce of course noticed this causing him to chuckle before kissing my lips

"What would you like to eat"

"If it's not much can I get French toast with hot chocolate"

"Of course anything for you babe, I'll just wiped it up give me about 10 minutes yes" he says

"Alright be quick"

"I will, watch something to keep you busy" he says walking away not before kissing me again
