Chapter 1 : Always here
Hola lovelies,
this request comes from my guest review up on my old account if you are still here thank you for the request I really appreciate it I'm sorry it took so long I just had to figure out how to take the story in my own words thank you for the idea hope you enjoy:)
Miguel woke up with a scratch in his throat as it felt like it was on fire and even as he tried to speak it felt like a frog was in it, his head felt like it was about to explode like a bomb ; and even as he tried to get up he felt his muscles tighten as they tried moving but he persisted in getting up to start his day.
When he finally made it to the kitchen he quickly sat down before his family could Annoy him with questions, he saw his Mamá come in the dining room as he on the other hand had his head on the table.
"Are you Okay Mijo?" Luisa asked
Miguel Just grumbled back in response as if he knew to answer his throat would burn; and like any mother would she checked his temperature as he looked red and flushed as she got the thermometer it read 39.8 and Luisa knew this wasn't good so she grabbed the vaporub and applied some to his chest as she sighed and got him some water.
"Ay Miguel Go back up to bed Mijo you're burning up and you're not working today ". Luisa stood firm
"Si, Mamá I would like that". He rasped
She nodded as he went up to bed, if he was little Again he would have procrastinate but now that he was older he now understood that it was best not to argue in these situations, so he enjoyed going back to bed getting to sleep so he could recover.
Meanwhile in the Encanto Mirabel had just got back from working when she got a letter from her Mamá, well her other mother saying that Miguel was sick as she read it:
Carina,
I am sorry to bother you Mija But Miguel is sick and I just thought it might cheer him up I think he would like your company, and if you want to bring Toñito that would be fine but if not that's okay; I just thought he could use the company tell Juileta that I enjoy the new recipes she gave me Okay now I'm rambling now I'm gonna stop.
Mamá Luisa
When she finished reading the letter she put it down and immediately went to the kitchen and made some soup, her specialty not as good as her Mamá's but still pretty good even when you are sick, when Bruno walked into the kitchen he was very curious to see what she was making.
"Hola Mariposa, What are you making?"Bruno asked
"Hola Tio I was just making some soup for Miguel since he is sick I thought this might cheer him up it's not as good as Mamá's though". Mirabel explains
Bruno's heart melted at those words she had just said like her Mamá she also had a caring heart and knew that when she take care of someone it is with a lot of love.
"Ay Mija never change have fun". Bruno waved
"I will". She smiled as she poured the soup into a container
Mirabel stopped pouring the soup for a second to turn to her Tio to ask him something and to remind the family she was going out for a couple of hours.
"Tio?" Mirabel asked
"Si". He answers
"Can You Tell them I'll be going out for a couple of hours please, and let them know there is leftover soup if anyone wants it, although highly likely that Cami will eat it all". Mirabel chuckled
"Si Mariposa I'll make sure and tell Miguel I said I hope he gets better". Bruno walked away
"I will". She called
With that Mirabel was done packing up the soup and was headed out to the door to the Rivera hacienda when Isabela stopped her.
"Where are you off to?" Isabela asked
"Off to drop some soup off for Miguel since he's sick." Mirabel reassures
"Oh hermano I hope he'll be okay". Isabela sighed
"He will he just needs rest is all". Mirabel smiled
"Well tell him I said I hope he gets better ". Isabela replies
"Si". She called
As she walked away Mirabel smiles knowing that her sister thinks of him as a brother already even though They aren't married yet but she blushed at the thought, Isabela smiled after walking away knowing how much she loves him and knowing she has already found found her prince and she was happy for her.
~Back in the Hacienda~
Miguel laying with a rag on his forehead to bring down the fever a bit restlessness taking over him he had slept for most of the morning; His sister had come home from school to check on him and try to cheer him up and though he appreciated it he couldn't even smile.
"I made this". Socorro smiled as she held up a card she had made for him
"That's sweet Chiquita Thanks ". He rasped
Even though he drank water and ate his voice was still a little bit scratchy and irritated but it was getting better slowly.
"I brought you some tea Primo camomile should help sooth it up". Rosa smiled
"Thanks Rosa ". Miguel smiled
She nodded and smiled as she walked out the room his family loved him to bits yes and he loved when he got taken care of but sometimes it was a bit too much. Just then he heard a knock on the side of the wall and noted his Mirabel and his Love standing there smiling in sympathy; Socorro was more then happy to see her as the two were very close and obviously let him in.
"Mind if I give you company?" Mirabel asked
He nodded and smiled at her whist also noting the container in her hands.
"I'll leave you alone I was just giving a card to hermano ". She piped
"Gracias Hermanita ". Mirabel thanked
Socorro then hugged Mira and left the room skipping away happy as she went to go do something else probably helping out her parents.
The door was left open as she walked and sat down on the bed and smiled and he returned the smile happy to have her here but worried she'll get sick.
"You shouldn't be here you'll get sick". Miguel coughed
She shrugged and chuckled
"Ay I have been through worse you should see Camilo when allergy season comes around it likes pollen has harvested inside him". She laughed
"Besides, I would always take care of you if you needed me ". She added
Dios Miguel loves this woman more than words can express, he loved her fire and kind spirit and her willingness to help others he loved everything about her really and he wouldn't have any other way as he smiled at her gently.
"And before you say anything Mamá sent me your Mamá I mean ". Mirabel replies quickly
"Of course she did ". Miguel rolled his eyes
Mirabel then opened the container full of homemade soup chicken to be more precise as she handed it to him along with a spoon and he took it with a smile and a lot of gratitude; She smiled in response and as he ate the soup The stuffiness began to clear up .
"The rest of the family said they hope you get better especially Isa ". Mirabel remembers
"Well tell them all thank you Although it's just a cold I'm okay I'm not dying ". Miguel chuckled
"Coming from Señor Dramático over here". Mirabel rolled her eyes
"Okay you've had your laugh Mi Amor and I'm not that dramatic". Miguel smiled
"Okay fair point but it only happens when you're near me". She sighed
"And oh how you wound me". Miguel put a hand to his chest
"Si". Mirabel replies laughing
They both sat in the scilence and enjoyed each other's Company for a while as Mirabel grabbed his tea and refilled it.
"You know you didn't have to do this". Miguel coughed
"No but I wanted to". She smiled
"You know I don't deserve you ". He smiled
"I should be asking you that same question sometimes I do wonder". Mirabel chuckled
When Luisa came in and checked she saw the sweet sight and smiled she loved Mirabel like her own daughter and couldn't ask for anything better as she let the two have each other's Company.
"You know you shouldn't be running around so much, you know you could get hurt". Mirabel replies
"Says the loca Chica Who does that on a daily." He rasped while laughing
"Okay fair". She smiled
They smiled and chuckled and for the rest of the day as Mirabel was by his bed even when he went to sleep and it was so sweet.
No matter where or when they will be there for each other .
