Sorry for not updating this drabble series in like forever xD I didn't get any good ideas for them 0_0 I wonder why… Probably lack of motivation.. -_-


"You know you really don't have to do this…"

Hichigo scoffed at his King's weak request. Ichigo had caught the flu and couldn't get out of bed without throwing up. Right now, Hichigo was putting a wet facecloth on Ichigo's forehead to try and take some of the heat away.

"You do realize that no matter what you say, I'm not gonna listen right? Just stop complainin' and let me take care of ya. It's not good for you if you keep stressing over everything."

Ichigo looked at his hollow. "But I don't understand why you're helping me. This is a really good time for you to crush me. So why aren't you hurting me?"

Hichigo sighed. "What kind of a horse would I be if I crushed ya when ya can't even defend yourself? I'm not that harsh Ichi. Now stop trying to come up with excuses for me not to take care of ya. Just accept that sometimes ya need help. That goes for fightin' too."

"But, you might catch my cold…"

"Baka. Hollows can't catch colds. That's the best part about being one I suppose. Now be quiet and go to sleep. I'm not leavin ya."

"But..." Hichigo's lips covered his. It was fairly gentle compared to the other times they've kissed. Not that Ichigo was complaining. But he wasn't used to having others be there for him. Well, he had his friends but they never took care of him when he was sick. Then again, he never let them come near him when he was.

Hichigo pulled away and lightly ruffled his soft, orange spikes. "Now go to bed Ichi. I ain't leavin' ya til you get better."

Ichigo smiled lightly. "Thank you… Shiro."
