Mun Note: This ficlet is AU and RP-based.
Having the flu is a pretty minor thing compared to having cancer, but it’s something that John could do without, nonetheless.
His head aches more than usual, and he feels tired and feverish. Even holding the writing implements to draw the plans for tests seems impossible. Inside his mind he tries to calm himself, to meditate a little. He needs to detach himself from the bodily discomfort that gnaws slowly at him, but he finds it hard.
It’s at times like these that he is so grateful to have Amanda and Zep with him.
They take such good care of him, fluffing his pillows, or bringing him chicken soup, hot tea or the ice cream he sometimes inexplicably craves at times like these. If he wants it, they sit with him to talk or read to him or just to hold his hands or stroke his forehead. Not fearing contagion at all, they are always there for him.
His favorite remedy is definitely their love.
