"This is your fault."
"Please, enlighten me on how this is my fault."
"You could've just let it go, but no... You had to have your fun and now look what's happened!"
"But it was you who started it!"
"I don't want to hear it! I can't see a damn thing; open the curtains, please."
"At least you said 'please'."
Fred slowly slid his legs out from under the blanket and sat at the edge of the bed, sniffling slightly. Standing up, he heard Daphne sigh behind him.
"I'm so sick, I can't even appreciate that you're shirtless... this is so depressing..." she groaned, shifting slightly underneath the covers. Fred couldn't stop himself from smirking, treading over to the closed curtains and pulling them open slowly. To his surprise, the sky was a rich shade of red and the Sun had almost disappeared beneath the horizon.
"Have we really been in bed all day?" he asked, leaning on the window sill as he stared at the red sky. Daphne moaned before sneezing loudly.
"Probably... can you pass me the tissues?" she replied, and he obliged by grabbing the blue box of tissues (the whole room had been colour-coordinated by Daphne) off of the window sill and gently throwing them to her. They landed on the exposed blanket next to her, and she grabbed them before blowing her nose. Fred sniffed again, also feeling the need to use a tissue.
Clambering back into bed, he shuffled his body across the mattress until it was pressed up against her own. Wrapping his muscular arms around her, he pulled her into an embrace. Daphne half-groaned in protest but he responded by hugging her tighter.
"I'm helping you keep warm," he explained, feeling her gradual acceptance of his touch and wrapping her arms around his middle.
"Warmth is... nice," she replied, sniffing quietly. Fred sighed, feeling just as sick as she did.
"I'm sorry," he muttered, and she looked up at him.
"For what?" at this he laughed heartily, the first time he had done so in a few days.
"I thought that you wanted me to apologise!" he exclaimed, and she smiled.
"Maybe it was the shock of you apologising under your own power?" she replied, and he chuckled.
"I'm sorry for making you go out in the snow. I feel really bad about making you ill," he apologised, and she snuggled into his chest.
"And I'm sorry for making you go out in the snow in the first place; and I'm also especially sorry for pushing you over," she replied, and he smirked.
"But that was just so funny, right?" he asked sarcastically, and she sighed happily.
"Freddie, it was the funniest thing I've ever seen." Fred laughed again, kissing the top of her head before closing his eyes.
"I'm glad I kept you entertained," he teased, and she chuckled.
"You always keep me entertained, Freddie. I love you," she replied, and he opened his eyes again so that he could look into hers.
"I love you too, now get some rest! Colds don't just go away by themselves, you know!" he instructed, and she kissed his lips tenderly for a moment before snuggling back into his chest.
"Alright, Fred, there's no need to be testy..."
