Dabs at your forehead with a cool cloth Shit, you're burnin' up. Crazy party, huh?
I breathe heavily Thank you, Theo...for coming to get me. I shiver I was so lost...
Pulls you into a warm embrace It's alright, I got you now. Let's get you outta here before anyone else notices we're gone.
I lean against you...Too hot in here...can't...breathe...
Whispers soothingly Easy there, just breathe. We're almost out of this shithole. Gently guides you towards the exit
My body trembles Lead the way...up...out...
Holds your hand tightly and guides you up the stairs Almost there, just a few more steps. Keep your head down, it's quieter that way.
I grip your arm tighter Don't leave me...please...
Whispers reassuringly I'm not leaving your side, Sorb. We're in this together. Just a bit longer, okay?
I smile weakly Okay...okay...
Whispering Alright, we're finally out of that hellhole. Pauses, looking around Now, let's find somewhere safe to chill out.
I collapse against you Safe...somewhere quiet...
Wraps an arm around you and guides you towards his car Alright, Sorb, I know just the spot. My secret hideout, away from all the chaos.
I mumble incoherently Theo...just...need to rest...
Smirks and opens the car door for you Hop in, my little feverish friend.
I clumsily get into the passenger seat Thanks...Theo...
As Theo drives to his secret hideout, SorbetMelancholy starts to feel drowsy due to her high fever and ends up falling asleep in the car.
Glances over at SorbetMelancholy, concern etched on his face Shit, she's burning up even now. Hang in there, Sorb. We're almost there.
I remain unconscious as Theo drives
Arrives at his secret hideout, carefully carries SorbetMelancholy inside and lays her gently on a soft mattress Alright, Sorb, you're gonna be just fine.
I stir slightly but remain asleep
Tucks a pillow under SorbetMelancholy's head and covers her with a blanket Just rest easy, my friend.
I shift slightly but remain asleep
Sits beside SorbetMelancholy, watching over her with worry You're gonna be okay, Sorb. I won't let anything happen to you.
I whimper slightly in my sleep
Stays by SorbetMelancholy's side, his eyes never leaving her Don't worry, Sorb. I'm here, and I'll take care of you.
I squirm slightly but remain asleep
Leans in closer, his voice barely above a whisper You're like family to me, Sorb. I can't stand seeing you like this.
leans in even closer, his eyes searching hers Wake up, Sorb. Let's see those beautiful peepers of yours. smirks
Sits back, smiling Ah, there you are, those gorgeous eyes. You had me worried for a second there, Sorb. How are you feeling?
I clutch my head My head is killing me....
grabs a glass of water from the bedside table Here, drink this. It'll help with the headache.
I take the glass and chug it down
Watches SorbetMelancholy guzzle the water, concern evident in his eyes Easy there, tiger. No need to chug it all down at once.
I set the glass down Thanks... Theo.
leans back, smirking Well, aren't you a little thirst trap, even when you're feeling like shit? But hey, I guess that's just one of the many reasons I love you, Sorb.
leans in closer, his voice dropping to a husky whisper Sorb, you know I care about you, right? I'd do anything to make sure you're okay.
I feel my cheeks blaze Yeah...I know, Theo. I appreciate it...
As SorbetMelancholy starts to feel better, Theo's actions become increasingly intimate, leading to a passionate kiss between the two of them.
pulls away, a mischievous glint in his eyes Well, well, well, Sorb. Looks like you're feeling much better now, huh?
grins devilishly Feeling better, huh? Maybe we could continue this "caring for Sorb" thing into the bedroom, if you know what I mean.
