*cough cough cough*
Jedite's ears popped up as he looked around, like a deer hearing a noise in the tall grass. He thought he just heard a noise from myth. Something he has only heard in stories and to be woken up in the early mornings to the noise… it might of come in his imagination.
*cough cough*
Jedite grinned mischievously, this was no dream! This was Christmas morning, Jedite jumped out of his bed quickly slipping a shirt over his naked torso to scurry out into the shrine hallway. It sounded, not to presume… but it really did sound like his captor was sick. Jedite poked his head around the corner and to make as much noise as a feather falling onto a pile of pillows slid Rei's bedroom door ever so slightly. He looked in to she an entanglement of dark violet locks cascading every which way possible. Rei was sleeping, then suddenly like she was some possessed zombie would convulse and cough before going back in to a coma like state. Now this would normally freak out any person but not Jedite, actually his grin grew. Ohhh happy day, Rei was sick.
That meant he could leave the shrine! An act Jedite hasn't been able to do since his assigned house arrest with Rei. Maybe he could go down to that café Neph has told him about. At least Lita was kind enough to let Neph out of her apartment and go into town with her. Really it seemed like Rei was the only one to take the whole 'house arrest' thing literal. Jedite couldn't help but outwardly groan at the reminder of Rei's strict rules but that was a bad idea as he heard Rei turn over in her not too heavy sleep. Jedite quickly covered his mouth with his hand stopping anymore accidental noise, he sighed, and it seemed to have worked.
Maybe stay at the shrine but set a bunch of traps for Rei so he can spend the next month watch her get trapped by his countless tricks. Jedite's joyous smile at his great idea suddenly soured, and thought of all the accusatory glares and outright beatings he might get in payment for all his 'little pranks.' No prank goes unpunished with Rei, and he wasn't willing to destroy the relationship he has barely built with the fiery beauty.
Suddenly Rei coughed again and as Jedite looked on he could see Rei was under some real pain. He sighed, no outings today, nope he had to trade in his holiday for another opportunity. Today he needed to take care or Rei and make sure she would get better. He opened the door all the way and sat right next to her bed brushing the hair out of her face, which woke the girl suddenly, almost as if she wasn't really sleeping at all. Rei instantly leaned up and wrapped her arms around Jedite's waste her head smashing into his soft warm shoulder,
"I hate this," Rei's distorted voice was herd through the thin shirt Jedite wore, he looked down with a sympathetic smile.
"I'm going to go make you tea, don't go anywhere," he couldn't hear Rei's fake laugh because it caused her to cough again, she glared to no one specific, as if she was mad at her situation. Rei smiled once Jedite left the room, he did know how to make her the best tea.
