Natalie noticed she felt nauseous halfway through her shift but just thought it was because she had not eaten since the previous night and hadn't had a chance to eat or sit down because of pile up victims that came in. She finally had the opportunity to get lunch so her and Will went down to the cafeteria to get food. It was a cold day so they both got soup. Will noticed that Natalie was eating slower than usual.

"You ok?" Will asked

"Yeah, just a little nauseous," Natalie replied.

"You don't feel warm, hopefully it's just from the stress of the day so far," Will said as he felt her forehead.

"Yeah, I think that's all it is," Natalie replied.

They finished eating 20 minutes later.

"Are you feeling any less nauseous?" Will asked.

"Not really," Natalie replied.

"Go lay down in an on-call room for a little bit. I'll take over your patients and come check in on you in an hour" Will told her as he kissed her head.

"Ok thank you" Natalie replied.

Will went back to the ED and Natalie went and laid down in an on-call room. She quickly fell asleep. Will came to check on her an hour later and she was still asleep. He walked up to her and noticed she was pale. He felt her forehead and she was burning up. He quickly left the room to go find Sharon and tell her he was taking Natalie home because she was sick. He went up to her office and knocked on the door.

"Come in" Sharon called out

"Hey, I need to take Natalie home she has a fever," Will told her.

"Ok, you can stay with her. There's only 2 hours left on your shift anyway" Sharon replied.

"Ok thank you" Will responded.

"Of course. Tell Natalie I hope she feels better" Sharon told him.

"Ok will do," Will said, stepping out of her office.

He went and signed Owen out of daycare. Then called Helen to see if she could watch Owen for a few days.

W Hey Natalies sick. I'm pretty sure she has the stomach bug. I don't want Owen to catch this. Can you take him for a few days?

H Of course

W Ok thank you I just have to talk to Natalie I'll keep you updated.

H ok sounds like a plan.

He got back to the on-call room and gently rubbed Natalies back to wake her up to get her home.

"Hey, I need you to wake up. You have a fever. I'm taking you home" Will told her.

Natalie slowly sat up then ran across the room and threw up into the trash can. Will was close behind her.

"Ssh it's ok you're ok just let it all out" Will soothed.

Once she was done he handed her a water bottle to rinse out her mouth.

"Here rinse out your mouth," Will told her.

Natalie rinsed out her mouth and sat there for a few minutes. Will helped her up and they went and got their stuff.

"Your mom said she could watch Owen for a bit. Do you want to drop him off so he doesn't catch this.? Will asked.

"Yeah," Natalie replied.

Will shot a quick text to Helen.

W Natalie wants to drop Owen off at your place. We'll be there soon.

H Ok sounds like a plan

On the way to their car Natalie stopped and threw up into the trash can outside the main entrance. Will comforted her the whole time. Her whole body was shaking when she finished so Will picked her up and carried her to the car. They drove to Helens and dropped Owen off. Then, they drove home. Once inside they both got into comfy clothes. Natalie laid down while Will got medicine and tea ready. He came back into their room a few minutes later with some ginger tes, a thermometer, Advil, and tums.

"I need you to sit up for me a little. I have medicine for you and I want to take your temperature. I need you to try and drink some tea so you don't get dehydrated." Will told her.

She sat up and Will took her temperature. It was 102.

"Your temperature is 102 but hopefully the Advil will bring that down" Will told her.

Natalie took her medicine and drank some of the tea and then laid back down. Will set an alarm on his phone for 4 hours so he could give her more medicine. He got in bed next to her and pulled her into his chest. They both slept until his alarm went off.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Will asked.

"Still nauseous," Natalie replied.

"I'm sorry you can have more meds now. You still feel warm" Will told her.

She took her medicine and Will took her temperature.

"Your temperature went up a little it's 102.5,"

Will told her.

"Uggh" Natalie groaned.

"I know I'm sorry you're not feeling good, hopefully the meds will start working soon" Will reassured her.

Natalie sat up to take the medicine but as soon as she sat up she got nauseous and threw up into the trashcan next to their bed. Will held her hair back and rubbed her back and comforted her.

"Ssh your ok it's ok just get it all out" Will soothed.

Once she was done Will went into the bathroom and grabbed some washcloths and wet them with cool water. He also grabbed a hair tie. He went back to Natalie and wiped off her face, then tied her hair into a messy bun, and held the other washcloth to the back of her neck since she was sweating.

'Hopefully, you can keep some medicine down. You feel a bit warmer now and we need to get your temperature down,"Will told her while grabbing the thermometer. She felt warmer than she was 20 minutes prior so he wanted to check again. He took his temperature and it had gone up to 103.2. "Your fever went up to 103.2 we need to get it down," Will told her.

He went and got some washcloths from the bathroom. Just as he was about to put them on her she grabbed the trashcan next to her bed and threw up into it. Will comforted her and got her cleaned up. He then got the washcloths on her. He left them there for almost an hour before removing them. He took her temperature and it went down to 102.4. They laid there for an hour then Will got up to heat up some soup. Once he heated up the soup he bought it to her.

"Hey, I need you to eat some soup. I know you're not feeling well but I at least need you to try" Will told her.

She ate her soup then threw it back up 20 minutes later and Will comforted her. It was only 8 but they both were tired so they decided to go to bed and call it a night. When Will woke up the next morning he felt a little off but thought nothing of it. He woke up before Natalie so he went into the living room and watched tv for an hour until Natalie walked out.

"Hey babe how are you feeling?" Will asked as he shut off the tv.

"Same as yesterday" Natalie replied, walking over to him and sitting next to him on the couch.

"I'm sorry babe you still have a fever," Will told her as he felt her head.

He got up and got the thermometer and went back over to her.

"Your temperature is 102.7," Will told her.

"Uggh" Natalie groaned.

"I know I'm sorry, hopefully you'll be better by tomorrow," Will said as he kissed her head.

"I'm still really nauseous," Natalie told him.

"Oh, I'm sorry baby I'm gonna get you some medicine, hopefully it'll help," Will replied.

He got some Advil and pepto and gave them to her.

"Here take this, then I want to get some food into you in half an hour," he told her.

30 minutes later Will made the both of them some toast and they both ate it. Five minutes later Will felt like he was going to throw up, so he ran to the bathroom. Natalie was close behind. As soon as Will got into the bathroom he started to throw up; the stomach virus has gotten him too,

"Your ok it's ok just let it all out and breathe" Natalie soothed while rubbing his back.

As soon as Will finished Natalie grabbed the trashcan next to the toilet and threw up into it. Will held her hair back and rubbed her back.

"You ok?" Natalie asked

"No, you?" Will replied.

"Same my stomach is killing me" Natalie replied.

"Me too," Will told her.

"Go get back in bed i'll be there in a minute I'm just going to get some medicine and water," Will told her

Will went and put two heating packs in the microwave. While they were in the microwave he took some medicine and then, got two bottles of water and two bottles of Gatorade. Once the heating packs were done he got them out of the microwave and walked back into the room. He set a bottle of water and Gatorade on Natalie's nightstand, then got in bed. He slipped one of the heating pads under his shirt.

"Hey, I'm going to put a heating pad on your stomach. Hopefully, it'll help" Will told her.

"Thanks," Natalie replied.

Will pulled Natalie into his chest and they fell asleep. They slept for an hour before Will woke up and threw up into the trash can he set next to his side of the bed. Natalie woke up and comforted him.

"Ssh your ok it's ok" Natalie soothed while rubbing his back.

Once he was done he rinsed his mouth out with water and fell back asleep. They woke up hours later and both took more medicine and ordered some soup from Panera. Once it got there they ate it and watched tv. 30 minutes later Natalie threw up her soup and Will comforted her. Soon after, Will threw up his soup and Natalie comforted him. They both threw up a few more times over the next few hours and comforted each other through it. They went to bed and when they woke up Natalie felt a lot better but They Will still felt like shit. Natalie took her temperature and it was normal. She then took wills and it was 101.

"Hey, babe I need you to take some medicine, you still have a fever, it's 101," Natalie told him.

Natalie got Will some Advil and tums and he took them. She took some tums herself then made some toast for the both of them. Natalie was able to keep hers down; she just felt a little nauseous after, but Will threw up within 20 minutes.

"Ssh your ok it's ok just let it all out get it all out" Natalie soothed while rubbing his back.

Once he was done Natalie wiped off his face and held a cool washcloth to the back of his neck.

This process repeated several times throughout the day. The next morning they both had work but Will still felt a little sick so he called in.

W Hey Sharon, I won't be in today. I got the stomach bug Natalie had. I am better today than I was yesterday and should be good as new tomorrow.

S Ok sounds good I hope you feel better.

Natalie took his temperature and it was normal.

"Your fever is gone babe," Natalie told him.

"Oh thank god" Will replied.

"I have to get going but I will call you at lunch to check on you. Call me if you need anything before that" Natalie told him.

"Ok, thanks love you" Will replied.

Will ate some toast for breakfast and was able to keep it down. He spent the rest of the day alternating between sleeping and watching tv. Natalie called around 6.

N Hey sorry I meant to call earlier but things got chaotic. How are you feeling?

W Good I've been able to keep everything down.

N Good I'm glad. I'm gonna pack up Owen and then I'llbe home.

W ok.

Natalie and Owen got home soon after the call ended. They ate dinner and watched a movie then all went to bed early. Two days later Will was able to go back to work for his next shift.

A/N sorry this took so long. My physical and mental health have been absolute shit lately, so it's been hard to find the motivation to write. However, I am on spring break now so I am going to try to get one or two more one-shots out.
