AHHH
Today: December 2
Supposed Day of First Heat Cycle: December 25
Countdown: 23 Days
I felt a nipping on my face and groaned, seeing Jax. Looking at my clock, I saw it was 5 am in the morning and I glared hotly at jax.
"What. The. Fuck."
Jax rolled his eyes and replied.
"I think you should take the day off. It seems that the symptoms of your first heat are slowly arriving. You keep flinching and touching your stomach. It seems that your body is starting to register that winter is coming and is preparing itself."
I groaned and then flinched, a throbbing in my side making me curl into a ball. Jax nuzzled me and said.
"it'll be ok, just keep smelling Adrien's jacket. His scent should soothe you."
I nodded and brought the fabric to my face, taking a deep breath. The tightness in my chest and the throbbing went away slowly and I relaxed. I was surprised to see Adrien come in, holding a bag. He tilted his head and asked me quietly, concern in his voice.
"Are you alright, (Y/n)?"
Jax floated up and replied.
"Like I told her: It seems that the symptoms of her first heat are slowly arriving a bit earlier than expected. Her body is starting to realize that it's almost mating season is preparing itself. Most likely creating slick and storing it for when the mating process begins, her body can help the male."
Adrien nodded and Jax continued.
"Usually, the scent of the mate-to-be calms the female down and soothes them. That's why she keeps rubbing on you. Not only that, but the female will become extra loving and will want to be around their intended a lot more."
Adrien nodded and replied, petting Jax like I do.
"Ok, Thanks Jax."
Jax nodded and starting to eat his food, watching carefully. I groaned and rolled over, feeling hot and I was sweating.
"Crap, I don't feel good. I think I'm sick.."
Adrien set the breakfast down and put the back of his hand on my forehead, frowning.
"You're burning up. I'll go-"
"-you gotta get to school, Adrien...I don't think your dad would be happy with you missing so much school."
Adrien sighed and then replied.
"You're right. I'll be over after school if I can be, alright?"
I nodded and Adrien kissed my forehead and whispered.
"I...I'll be back, ok?"
I nodded and when he left, Jax said excitedly.
"He was gonna say he loved you!"
I rolled my eyes but smiled nonetheless, the fan running on high and cooling me down.
"I know he was. He's so sweet."
"Like candy?"
"Like candy."
We both chuckled and I then groaned.
"Laughing is a no-no."
Jax sighed and curled up on the pillow beside me, saying.
"You should try to sleep, I'm sure Adrien will be over later if he doesn't have a photo-shoot."
I nodded and fell asleep, dreaming a dreamless dream.
I groaned when I awoke, feeling even worse. I sat up the best I could, a couple of quilts falling to my lap, and saw in my mirror that I looked like crap. My skin was sweaty and my face was pale. My nose and eyes were red, my waterlines and eyelids also red. My mother came in and gasped, saying.
"Oh no! You look horrible."
"Oh gee, thanks mom."
I coughed, the sound of it windy and wheezing. My mother sighed and sat on the bed, handing me a bowl of soup.
"I made you some soup. I took your temperature while you were sleep and it was higher than normal. You usually have a body temperature of 101 or 103 because of your genes but your body temperature was 106 degrees and that's not good for you. We should try to break the fever and thankfully, it seems to be working."
I nodded and ate the soup, grunting a bit every few sips and I muttered, wanting to barf.
"I can't finish it..."
She sighed and set it on the nightstand. Handing me medicine, she said.
"Here, take these. These will help with the stomach and your fever."
I nodded and took the medicine, taking a small sip of water to wash down the pills. Sighing, I laid back down and my mother whispered.
"Get well soon, sweetie."
I nodded once more and she left. I groaned a bit and Jax sighed.
"I guess you must of caught something from someone!"
"it is...flu season so..."
Jax nodded and I grabbed my chair, propping myself up and I said.
"I should...do Christmas shopping for Adrien."
Jax nodded and replied.
"It'll probably help. What are you gonna get him?"
I sighed and responded with.
"I don't know what he would like. I do know he's allergic to feathers so anything feathery is out of the question...Maybe cat nip as a gag gift?"
Jax laughed and nodded and I smiled, blowing my nose into some tissues. Bringing up the internet, I went onto Google and thought hard. I knew that Adrien liked fencing so I smiled, typing in 'Fencing swords' and bit my lip. When I went to a site, I found a beautiful fencing sword and nodded.
"That's the one."
It's hilt had a beautiful design, the metal engraved with designs and blue sapphires. I clicked the link and bought two of them, smiling.
"Do you think He'll like it?"
Jax nodded and I smiled. Exiting out of the site, I sat back in my seat and sighed, letting my head fall back. The cold air hit my face, making me fell better and I grabbed the soup I hadn't finished, carefully taking sips of the hot liquid and I finished it off. Adrien came into my room, greeting me with a 'hey' and I waved, still eating. Adrien set down ice packs and responded.
"I brought some ice packs just in case you wanna put those on your forehead or wherever."
"Thank you."
He nodded and sat down, asking.
"Do you think you got it from something you ate?"
"Someone probably coughed on me or I got it from Nino."
I shrugged and then sighed. I hated being sick. Adrien took a folder out and handed it to me, saying.
"This has your homework for today in it."
"Thank you again, Adrien."
I smiled at him and he smiled back, nodding. he sighed and got up, putting the back of his hand on my forehead and cheeks, smiling after a moment.
"Well, you're not as hot as you were this morning so you're getting better."
"Oh, I'm not as hot, huh?"
He laughed and rolled his eyes.
"You're always gorgeous to me."
I blushed and looked to the side, crossing my arms.
"Your Chat is showing, Adrien."
He laughed once more and pecked my temple, saying.
"It always shows when I'm around you. I hope you get better soon, though I don't mind taking care of you. We should get you into the bath tub. A lukewarm bath should help a lot."
I nodded and he got me up, my arm wrapped around his waist and he took me to the bathroom. With his eyes closed, he helped me get out of my clothes and I got into the bathtub, bringing my knees to my chest and he turned on the water, setting it to a comfortable hot temperature. He closed the curtain and sat down on the floor beside me. Through the crack of the curtain and wall, I could see his eyes and he winked at me. I rolled my eyes and let my head fall back as the tub filled up. He asked.
"You ready for Christmas break?"
"When does that come?"
"I think we're getting out as early as the 17th. So we have about 15 more days until Christmas Break. We won't get back until the First of January."
I nodded and asked.
"Are you planning on doing anything for Christmas?"
"I was gonna ask my father if your family could spend Christmas with us."
"That would be fun."
Adrien then smirked and responded.
"It'll totally be fun. Wanna know why?"
"Why?"
"Your heat supposed to start on December 25. Merry Christmas to me."
I laughed and looked to him.
"You mean Merry Christmas to us?"
Adrien wriggled his eyebrows and I laughed, saying.
"For a cat, you act like such a dog."
"For a dog, you act like such a cat."
I grinned and then responded, looking at him.
"Instead of 'Throw that dog a bone' it's 'Throw this cat a bone.' Get it? Cause I'm both?"
He laughed and shook his head.
"That was pawful."
"Shut up, Cat Nip. Don't make me drag you in here with me and my sick self."
He just chuckled and wriggled his eyebrows, making me flick water in his face.
