[The communicator clicks on to find only darkness. There's a sound of shuffling and coughing in the background, before finally the communicator is lifted up, showing Trucy and Vera's bedroom. She's lying in her bed, looking pretty pale and sorry for herself.] U-ugh... [Trucy groans as she coughs again, hand immediately going to cover her mouth.] I

YOU BRAT

[it takes him all of five minutes to tune into the broadcast- and all of thirty seconds to come running.]

[he knocks- three sharp, urgent raps- and speaks through the door.] T-Trucy, are you there?

♥

[idkmybffmrhat]

[Trucy quickly suppresses the giggle and pulls the duvet back over her head.] Y-yeah.

no love... only just kidding ♥♥

[equite]

[he gingerly enters her room, closing the door quietly behind him.] How are you feeling...?

love forever ♥♥♥

[idkmybffmrhat]

[Two seconds, Apollo, she's having a coughing fit.] It hurts...

[equite]

[he visibly cringes at the sound.] I-I'll go get water!

[and he dashes out of there. a couple of minutes later, he's back with a glass of water in hands and a warm washcloth.] Here- drink this. Small sips.

[idkmybffmrhat]

[She slowly takes it from him before drinking a small amount, it causes her to choke a little before she can drink more.]

[equite]

Careful. [he breathes, his free hand touching her shoulder.]

Do you have a fever? [he reaches to feel her forehead.]

[idkmybffmrhat]

[Aaand she knocks it away.] It's too hot... [She can't fake a fever that well!]

[equite]

[his hand recoils.] That's because you're all wrapped up in your blankets. C'mon, I'll help you change into something cooler.

[and now he's trying to peel the comforter off her. :Db]

[idkmybffmrhat]

P-Polly... [Coughing fit. Look what he made her do! He better feel bad and stop trying to move her. :|b]

[equite]

We'll take it slow... take another drink of water. [he pauses... for now.]

[idkmybffmrhat]

O-okay. [Drinks a little more, coughing quietly as she sets the glass back down.]

[equite]

[he sits on the edge of her bed, careful not to accidentally take a seat on her toes.] ... I'm sorry. I knew this was going to happen.

I shouldn't have let you help out.

[idkmybffmrhat]

I-it's okay. You just need to look after me now, okay? [T-this wasn't done with just teasing him in mind, she wanted time with him. )8]

[equite]

I will. I promise. I'll sleep on the floor if I have to. [his expression is sincere.]

[idkmybffmrhat]

You don't have to do that. Besides, you'd probably frighten Vera if she came back and you were just lying on the floor.
