Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Note 1: Hey guys my long time friend Mard Geer has started a Karry story Vacation on Earth 1.

Note 2: as mentioned last chapter my beta and friend Terrance Sigma has a Karry story called Super Earth out.

Check both stories out. They are very good.

The Great Sickness

Kara looked around campus not believing how dead the place looked. The flu had hit the school like a plague and it seemed basically everyone had gotten it. Classes were cancelled; students who could get home went home. The place was a mess. Kara was pretty sure she was the only healthy person on campus and she had a cheat for that.

"Kara," she heard a voice and saw Barry walking up to her, but he looked bad. "I need to…."

"What are you doing out of bed?" Kara questioned, clearly worried about her boyfriend.

"Looking for you," Barry said.

"I was coming to you," Kara said holding up a bag she was carrying. "With soup. I got some for you and Iris who's held up in our room."

"You did? I thought after last night…" Barry said.

"What? You thought I would be upset because you stood me up. You clearly had a good reason," Kara said, truthfully having been upset until she learned through Iris that Barry had caught the flu as well.

"I was going to come anyway but…."

"Forget it," Kara said. "Lets get you back to bed. My room. So I can look after both you and Iris."

Kara took hold of Barry and let him lean on her, but halfway there Barry fell over. Kara looked around and no one was around to see her so she easily picked Barry up and held him over her shoulder. She ran quickly so she looked like a blur and ended up in her room quick. She was glad Iris was asleep as she put Barry down on her bed and felt his head. He was burning up.

Kara put the soup on the nightstand and wondered what she should do. She didn't really have much experience with sick people. Of course when she was a kid on Krypton she had gotten sick a couple of times but it had never been anything serious and Krypton had advance medicine. Also robot caretakers. Since she got to Earth she'd been immune to viruses and she had never seen Alex get this sick either.

Kara took out her cellphone and dialed Clark. "Hey Clark, I might need your help on something," Kara said.

"Anything," Clark said and Kara then heard a crashing noise on the other side and Lois screaming at Clark. "Any chance you could help me build a baby crib this weekend though?"

"I think I would break it in two seconds," Kara said with a laugh. "Starting to buy stuff I hear."

"Yeah. Not going so well. It's not even just the super strength. Have you ever read the directions they give when you buy this stuff?" Clark said. "So what's your problem?"

"Barry and Iris both have the flu and I have no idea what to do," Kara said.

"Ah, sorry baby cuz. Not exactly an expert on taking care of sick people," Clark said. "Maybe Lois could help."

"More than likely better than you," Kara heard Lois snap in the background and then heard Clark mumble 'of course' as he handed the phone off. "So what's wrong Kara?" Kara explained to Lois about Barry and Iris being sick. "Well you're going to need to make sure they drink and eat as much as possible. Try to bring the fever down with ice. Also you're going to need medicine. Over the counter cold and flu stuff should be fine." Kara wrote down everything Lois said and then thanked her as she heard another crash in the background and Lois screaming at Clark.

"Can I give you some advice for once Lois," Kara said.

"Ah sure," Lois said.

"Super strength and building fragile things do not go together. Pay someone to build the baby stuff," Kara said. Lois laughed and wished Kara good luck before they hung up.

"Did you just say something about super strength?" Kara heard a voice and turned to see Iris awake.

"No, you must be hearing things," Kara said hoping Iris would buy it.

"Yeah must be,"' Iris said. "I had the weirdest fever induced dreams. Is that Barry?"

"Yeah," Kara said as Barry started to stir.

"How did we get here?" Barry asked looking around. "I had the weirdest dream you picked me up."

"Wow both you and Iris must be hallucinating," Kara said and Barry nodded, accepting it. Kara almost couldn't believe how easy it was to lie to them while they were sick. "You both need to eat something. I have soup. Chicken noodle. Can't vouch for the chicken since I bought this on campus, but noodles should be good." It was a joke they made about the campus food but neither of the two seemed to be in a joking mood.

"I can't eat," Barry said. "Just the thought of it makes my stomach turn." As though to prove his point at that moment Barry ended up throwing up on the floor

"Okay I'm going to clean that up and then go out to buy you guys some medicine," Kara said. "Try to eat if you can. If not, at least drink." Kara took two cans of ginger ale out of the same bag she took the soup. "I was told ginger ale was good for an upset stomach."

"Kara don't bother," Barry said. "Get away while you're healthy and you can."

"I agree with Barry. No need for you to get sick too," Iris said.

"I'm not leaving you two here alone sick," Kara said.

"Please go to Clark and Lois' and hide out. We'll be fine," Barry said.

"And risk taking this virus to Lois while she's pregnant. No way," Kara said. "Besides I am not leaving you and that's final. I'll be fine. I have a good immune system." Kara didn't wait for Barry or Iris to argue more as she went to work cleaning up the sick and then went to buy some cold and flu medicine. She also bought two buckets incase the two had to throw up again and couldn't make it to the bathroom.

"What did I do to deserve a girlfriend like you?" Barry asked that night as Kara pulled the covers over him.

"Well you're pretty great yourself," Kara said kissing his forehead.

"I love you," Barry said.

"Love you more," Kara said.

"Please don't," Iris said. "I feel like I'm already going to throw up that soup I ate. Don't need to add your cuteness to my sickness."

Kara laughed at Iris' comment. "I think we're going to have to change our love you more fight to make it less cute. I'm tired of people, mostly Clark, dragging me away from you. Get some sleep. You need it."

"This is your bed," Barry pointed out. "We share it all the time. You can snuggle next to me."

"I'll be fine on the floor. You need the whole bed to yourself," Kara said. "Besides no offense I don't want to take the risk of you throwing up on me."

It was a long couple of days before Barry and Iris finally started feeling better.

"Well you two seem better," Kara said when their fevers had reduced and they started getting their appetites back. "And people are starting to return to campus so it seems the great sickness is over."

"How did you not catch this?" Iris asked looking at Kara. "I mean you stayed with us the entire time and we were like full-on hallucinating sick at one point."

"I told you. I have a good immune system," Kara said with a smile. "It's a superpower."

"I still swear you picked me up," Barry said. "It seemed so real."

"Barry do you seriously think little old me could pick you up?" Kara asked sitting down on the bed next to Barry.

Barry looked at her, thinking. "I guess not," he said.

Kara leaned over to kiss Barry. "And you owe me a date," Kara said and Barry smiled.

"Yes I do," Barry said putting his arms around Kara. "I owe you a lot."

AN: and yeah just a short little cuteness chapter. I hope. REVIEW.
