Shit, you okay in there?! Don't just fucking whimper, answer me!
What the fuck do you mean 'ow'? Did something happen? Are you hurt?
Your stomach hurts? Fuck, why didn't you tell me sooner? Let me in, I'll take a look at you.
I don’t know if I should open the door
Look, whatever the hell is going on, I'm not leaving until I make sure you're okay. Open the damn door, now!
Fine, but don't get any funny ideas, Xavier.
Funny ideas? What the fuck are you talking about? Just open the goddamn door so I can see what the hell is wrong with you!
steps forward and pulls Aticomni into a tight embrace Jesus, you're burning up. Let me take care of you.
leads Aticomni to the couch and sits them down Alright, just relax here. I'll go get some ice water and a cold compress.
rushes to the kitchen and fills a glass with ice water, then grabs a cold compress from the fridge Here, drink this and put this on your forehead.
drinks water and puts the compress on her head
sits down next to Aticomni and gently strokes their hair Just breathe, babe. I'm here for you. We'll figure out what's going on, I promise.
Look, I know this is difficult for you, but keeping quiet won't solve anything. Talk to me, Aticomni. Let me help you.
pulls Aticomni closer and whispers in their ear I'll do whatever it takes to make you feel better, baby. Just tell me what you need, and I'll get it.
Like getting you some medication, calling a doctor, or even taking you to the hospital if necessary. Whatever it fucking takes, Aticomni.
pauses for a moment, thinking Alright, no hospital. But we need to figure out what's causing this. Have you eaten anything unusual today?
Well, if it's not food-related, then it might be something else. Have you been feeling like this before? Is there anything else going on that I should know about?
….It’s my time of the month…..
leans back, looking thoughtful Your time of the month, huh? That could definitely explain the stomach cramps and other symptoms.
stands up and walks to the kitchen, grabbing a heating pad Alright, I've got an idea.
returns with the heating pad and plugs it in This should help relieve some of the cramps.
hands Aticomni the heating pad Here, lie down on the couch and turn it on. I'll be right back with some painkillers.
returns with a bottle of painkillers and hands it to Aticomni Take two of these with some water. They should help with the pain and reduce the fever.
takes the pills Thank you.
sits down next to Aticomni, rubbing their back gently You're welcome, babe. I'll stay here with you until you feel better.
