When it got to be around eleven thirty in the morning, and there was still no sign of Sherlock, John curiously went over to see what he was up to. Sherlock rarely slept at all, let alone this much.
When he entered Sherlock's room, he found the detective lying in his bed, only half awake. Used tissues were piled all around him, and there was a nearly empty box by his side. Sherlock was lying with his head propped up on several pillows, and he looked even paler than normal- which John had previously thought to be impossible.
"Oh, god, Sherlock, what happened to you?"
"Is it not clear, John? I appear to have caught a virus," Sherlock answered in a bland tone, some of his letters not sounding quite right through his completely stuffed nose.
"Come on, Sherlock, let's get you out of bed," John said as he grabbed Sherlock by the arm, and tugged him up to a wobbly stand.
Leaning on John the entire way, Sherlock was able to make it wearily to the living room where he laid down on the couch, and was covered in a thick blanket by John.
John went off into the kitchen, and after a bit of banging of pots and clattering of silverware and opening of bags, John returned to Sherlock with a steaming bowl of soup.
"You just made this yourself," Sherlock asked, incredulous.
"Yes, genius, now eat it," John ordered as he placed the soup in Sherlock's lap, and sat on the floor beside Sherlock.
Slowly, Sherlock leaned forward and ate his soup. When he finished, he leaned back and lay down again, and John cleared his dish.
"You look awful, Sherlock, you need to rest," John insisted as he crouched down on his knees beside Sherlock.
Sherlock looked up at John with big, innocent-looking eyes, and said, "Thank you, John," and he inched his head forward, and kissed John.
"I'm going to catch your cold," John said, though he didn't move.
Suddenly, John turned his head, and sneezed.
"I think you already have, Doctor Watson," Sherlock smirked and kissed him again.
A/N: And once again, John forgets everything, and just kisses Sherlock back. XD
