Headache: How my character will take care of yours when they have a headache

Hikaru groaned as he felt the sun filter through the blinds onto his face, waking him up. Because honestly, he didn't want to wake up. He just wanted to sleep, and sleep, and sleep.

The man had the flu. He hadn't contracted it long ago - only a day or so - but he was already suffering badly from it. And when he suffered, he made it a point to make everyone else around him suffer too.

Which did not please his wife. At all.

"Go back to sleep. I'm working on a case, Hika," came her voice over the phone. You could hear the crinkling of paper in the background as she went through paperwork.

"But Katie..." he whined, closing his eyes tightly. Even hearing his own voice made his head pound.

"Look, I promised I'd come home at lunch, okay? So you just sleep until then, and we'll be all good, okay?"

Hikaru just groaned. "I can't sleep though... my nose is blocked, my head hurts, I can't move..."

Katie sighed from her end of the phone. "... I'll be home in fifteen minutes, okay?"

"Okay," Hikaru mumbled, putting the phone down when Katie ended the call.

The male didn't realise he had, in fact, fallen asleep until he felt a cold damp flannel being placed on his forehead. He opened his eyes slowly. "Katie...?"

"Shhh," she kissed his cheek and smiled softly at him. "You just rest, and get all better. I've taken the rest of the week off to take care of you, so I'll be here the whole time, okay?"

"Okay..." Hikaru mumbled. He shut his eyes again, sighing softly.

Katie smiled and kissed his cheek. "How about I make you some soup, honey? It'll make you feel a little better?"

"Soup sounds good," Hikaru mumbled, smiling weakly at Katie.

Katie nodded as she turned to head out of the room, smiling a little. Hikaru was never really a bother when he was ill - maybe even better behaved - but it did mean that she had a lot more work to do around the house.

She returned about half an hour later with a bowl of hot soup, opening the door...

Only to find her husband snoring away on the bed.

She smiled and walked in, placing the soup on the bedside table. She pecked him on the cheek. "Get well soon, Hika..."
