Oscuro sat down on the blanket between Fluttershy and Discord watching as her brother glared at her mate. He then looked at her with a calmer look and a smile before levitating a piece of carrot cake over to her and one to Fluttershy.

"Thanks." She said, returning the smile.

"Thank you Sombra." Fluttershy said shyly.

Discord only looked at the two mares, then back at Sombra.

"Hey, where's my piece?" A second later a good amount of the cake was splattered all over his face. He opened his cake-filled eyes and scowled at Sombra. The unicorn smirked at him and laughed.

"How's that for a piece?" He said before Discord smacked his plate right up agaist the former king's snout with his tail. Sombra let out an irritated growl as Discord burst out laughing. "Very funny."

"Yes, it is!" Discord cackled, holding his stomach as he fell back onto the ground. Oscuro smirked and leaned over, licking some of the cake off of his face. He instantly stopped laughing and looked over at her in shock.

"Delicious too." She chuckled and licked more cake off of her mate.

"Blech..." Sombra gagged as he took he cake off his face with his magic. "You two may be mates, but could you refrain from... you know, in front of me?"

"Why, does it bother you?" Discord asked, pulling Oscuro onto his chest and pressed his lips firmly against hers. Sombra let out an even louder gag.

"I know my sister's a succubus, but still..." Sombra growled harshly. "Stop it..."

"Um... could you two s-stop fighting?" Fluttershy murmured softly, helping Oscuro get off Discord.

"You're right, they should..." Oscuro sighed and rubbed her head lightly. "They're giving me a headache..."

"You're also looking kind of pale." Fluttershy stated, resting a hoof on her shoulder. "Are you okay?"

"Y-yeah..." The alicorn answered. "I just... feel a little... light headed..." Her eyes suddenly rolled back in her head and she passed out.

"Oscuro!" They all gathered around her in worry, Discord lightly placing his paw on her forehead before pulling it away suddenly.

"She's burning up!" He gasped. "Why didn't she say anything?" He sighed and scooped her up in his arms. "I'm gonna take her to bed."

Oscuro opened her eyes and realized that she was in her and Discord's bedroom, wrapped all up in blankets with an icepack on he forehead. She sat up with a groan and felt a very familiar queazy feeling, nearly throwing herself off the side of the bed as she began losing the contents of her stomach.

The door opened at the same time and Discord walked in, carrying a hot bowl of soup. Seeing Oscuro blowing chunks into the trash can, he walked over and wrapped his tail around her mane to keep her vomit out of it. She stopped and let out a gasping breath, taking one quick look at Discord before throwing up once more.

"Jeez, you're a lot more sick than I thought." He sighed and pulled a chair up next to the bed, sitting down and setting the bowl down on the nightstand. He grabbed her stomach and gave a hefty squeaze and with one loud belch, everything came out, filling up a third of the trashcan. "Better?"

Oscuro nodded weakly and pulled herself back up on the bed with another groan. She sighed and rubbed her temples, coughing softly. Discord reajusted the pillow and put the icepack back on her head, poofing up a glass of water and helping her drink it.

"I'm glad you're awake..." Discord smiled. "You've been asleep for the last seven hours."

"What happened?" She asked.

"You mean you don't remember?" Discord sighed, grabbing the bowl of soup and gave her a spoonful of soup. "We went outside for a picnic with your brother and you collapsed."

"D-did I...?" She ate the soup as Discord gave it to her. "Wait where are Sombra and Fluttershy?"

"After they were sure that you were okay, they went home." He patted her on the head and tried to give her more soup, but she pushed it away. "Oh, finished huh? Alright then... how about I go draw you a bath, hmm...?"

"Yes please..." Discord nodded and kissed her forehead and went towards the bathroom, leaving Oscuro alone in the room. She rubbed her temples and closed her eyes, a slight pain in her head bothering her. "Discord? Can you bring me some acetaminophen?"

"Of course dear." A moment later, Discord came back in with a pill bottle and another glass of water. He opened the bottle and shook out two white pills, handing them to her along with the water. She took the pills and put them in her mouth, swallowing them with one big mouthful of water.

"Thank you sweetheart..." Discord grinned and carefully picked her up, carrying her to the bathroom.

"Your bath should be done by now." He brought her over to the fairly large tub and and carefully placed her in the water. "Is it okay? Not too hot or cold? Are you comfortable? How about-"

"It's fine Dissy..." She chuckled, rubbing her now wet hoof down his chin. "I swear sometimes you worry too much..."

"Well you're my mate, it's my job to worry." He cupped some of the water and poured it down her head, soaking her mane. "It's also my job to take care for you."

"I know, but you don't have to-" Oscuro began, but was silenced by Discord putting his paw over her mouth.

"Oh, but I do, my dear." He spoke, rubbing her back softly and nuzzling her neck. "You're sick and I just can't let you suffer..."

"Then why don't you just use your magic to heal me?" She asked him, raising any eyebrow.

"Well, maybe I don't want to..." He purred, pressing his forehead to hers. "I like you being too weak to do anything so I can take care of you..."

"Too weak, huh...? Well guess what Dissy?" The draconequus looked up at her curiously. "You shouldn't underestimate me..." She wrapped her hooves around his neck and yanked him into the tub, creating a large splash as he yelped loudly. Oscuro laughed as he looked up at her with a slightly annoyed expression.

"Very funny my dear." He sat up in the water and smiked at her. "Now it's your turn..." He pulled her over onto his chest and pressed his lips to hers with a chuckle.

She pulled away in shock with a gasp. "Discord! I'm sick!" She squeaked.

"That you are dear." He replied and picked her up. "Let's get you back to bed shall we?"

"But you just brought me in here." She answered. "Why are you taking me back?"

"Because I want you to get some rest." He said and nuzzled her, walking into the bedroom. "Meanwhile, I will be taking care of you."

"Alright, Discord." She mumbled as he set her down in the bed and tucked her in.

Discord smiled as he watched her lie back and close her eyes. After a few minutes, he heard her breathing change and knew that she fell asleep. He then supposed that he should send a letter to Sombra.

Summoning up a quill, ink and parchment, he began to write.
