JJ got in the apartment and without removing her coat she sat on the couch and curled under the blanket they had there. Flack followed her worried.
"Are you alright, Jamie?" He asked sitting down next to her.
"Yeah… I just feel very tired,." She answered smiling lightly.
"You sure?" He said placing an open hand in her forehead. "I think you've got some temperature."
"It's just a cold or maybe I'm starting with the flu. Jason was ill when I went to babysit him the other day. He must have passed me whatever he had." She said shrugging.
"Do you want me to take you to the Doctor or call Hawkes? Maybe I could cook you some soup? Or prepare you some fresh orange juice?"
"Why don't you just come here and cuddle with me for a while?" She asked bating her eyelashes.
"How could I say no to those eyes?" He answered slipping under the blanket and hugging her tightly to his chest. He turned on the TV and after half an hour he noticed that she had fallen asleep. They had had a quite busy week. Thanksgiving dinner at the Flack's home at Queens followed by another dinner the day after with all the team at Stella's place, all that with working crazy shifts and weird cases. He was really tired too but JJ had even had a busier week. She met her friends for dinner and then babysat Jason a couple of times. Mandy and Will were in some kind of crisis and needed some time alone, without the baby, and JJ offered to take care of him. She was exhausted and her health was starting to suffer the consequences. He carried her to their bed and checked again her forehead. She was burning. She was turning in her sleep and her breathing had become agitated. He changed her in her pj's and then went to grab some medicine to help her with the high temperature.
"Jamie, wake up." He said shaking her shoulder sweetly whispering the words at her ear. She stirred lightly and opened her eyes slowly.
"I'm tired, Blue. I just wanna sleep." She said pulling the covers over her head.
"I know, but take some of these. You are gonna feel better and they are gonna help you sleep." He said helping her sit on the bed.
"If I take them you are gonna let me sleep?" She asked annoyed crossing her arms over her chest.
"I promise." He said grinning handing her the pills and the glass of water. After she swallowed them he talked again. "Are you feeling alright, Jamie? Your temperature is really high."
"I feel a bit dizzy and my cheeks are burning." She admitted. "But I'm fine, Blue. I just need to sleep. Tomorrow I'll feel great!"
"Promise me that you are gonna rest, tomorrow. It's your day off and you've been working way too much lately, and you seem to be coming down with a flu." Flack told her.
"Ok. I will stay all day hanging out in here." She answered surrendering. "Let's go to sleep, ok?"
"You sleep. I'm gonna watch tv for a while. Is really early." He answered smiling lightly.
"But I can't sleep without you." She said pouting.
"Shit...How can you have me so... willing to oblige to whatever you ask?" Flack answered already putting out his shirt.
"Yeah, well that's because you know that I'm way smarter than you and that all I say is true and the correct thing to do." JJ answered smiling.
"You are still a smartass, that means you are not feeling that bad." He said lying on the bed.
"I told you, I just need to sleep... with you." She said opening her arms welcoming him. He obliged putting his head over her chest and hugging her tightly passing his arms around her waist. "This is not the most comfortable position." She laughed.
"Well, your boobs make a nice pillow." He added kissing her chest and grinning. She rolled her eyes and started laughing but it turned into coughing soon. He sat on the bed quickly and made her sit too. When it stopped he handed her the glass of water again. "You alright?" He asked worried.
"Yeah, yeah..." She said hoarsely. "Don't make me laugh anymore and I'll be fine."
"Lie down again and get comfortable, you need to rest." Flack said caressing her hair. She rested her head on his chest.
"I think you are right, Blue. I think it's probably the flu. My head is starting to hurt too." She said snuggling closer to him.
"Go to sleep, hun." He said kissing her head. "If you need water, more pills, a massage, anything, wake me up, ok? No matter what time it is."
"You sure about that? Anything it's a really big word..." She said smiling.
"You don't lose your sense of humour never, even when you are ill, huh?"
"I can't be humourless when I have you near me." She shrugged.
"I think that fever leaves you in a more teasing mode... "He added smiling.
"Maybe." She answered yawning.
He kissed her head again and hugged her tighter to his chest. "Good night, Jamie." He said knowing that he would not get any sleep that night. He would be too busy making sure that she got any sleep. Her head against his chest made him realise that the pills had already started to work, she wasn't having that so high temperature already. He sighed relieved and she stirred lightly. He caressed her hair and back until she was soundly asleep again.
