you woke up to the pleasant sound of teuvo puking at about 2am. you walked into the bathroom and sat down on the lip of the bathtub to rub his back.

"what's going on teuvo?" you asked in a gentle, tired voice.

"i didn't feel good all of a sudden." he mumbled back.

you let teuvo finish emptying his stomach and then watched him brush his teeth.

"can we go back to sleep?" teuvo asked you.

you nodded, "let me go get some meds for you before we go back to sleep." you said.

teuvo nodded and climbed into bed.

you grabbed some cold and flu medicine, melatonin, and a glass of water.

"here you go sweetheart." you said and set it on the bedside table.

he picked the meds up and smiled weakly over at you, "thank you y/n." he said and took the pills.

you sent him a smile back and nodded.

you turned teuvo away from you and began to scratch his back. you knew that was one of his favorite things in the world and could put him to sleep instantly.

he fell asleep pretty quickly and you did about right after him.

when you woke up the next morning, he was gently snoring with his mouth open. you realized that his arms were around you like you were his teddy bear.

you smiled at him and shimmied out of his grasp. you took a quick picture of him before moving into the kitchen to make his favorite breakfast.

as you were almost done with the meal, teuvo walked into the kitchen with a throw blanket around his shoulders.

"good morning baby." you said.

"good morning sweetheart." he responded and sat down at the island.

"i made your favorite." you said and showed off the plate to him.

"oh thank you babe." teuvo smiled gently.

you stood behind him as he ate and played with his hair.

"did you eat baby? why don't you go and eat?" he asked concernedly.

"oh i ate already teuvo. i'm alright." you told him and sat down in the chair next to him.

teuvo lifted your legs into his lap so he could gently massage your calf as he ate.

he finished with his food. you took his plate and set it in the sink.

"let's go lay on the couch bubs." you said to him.

teuvo nodded and got up. he followed behind you like a lost puppy.

you hated when he was sick, but you had to admit he was pretty cute.

teuvo picked out a movie and a little bit into it you saw that he had began to shiver even with the fuzzy blanket around his body.

"are you cold teuvo?" you asked curiously.

he nodded, "yeah very." he responded.

you quickly checked the heat and turned it up a couple degrees.

"here let's cuddle bubs." you said as you walked back in the room.

you picked up the biggest and coziest blanket in your house and wrapped you and him in it together.

"i don't want to make you sick sweetheart." teuvo worried.

you smiled at him reassuringly, "it's okay baby. it'll be worth it. i just want to make you all cozy and warm." you told him.

after a little bit longer of arguing, he finally ceded and let you cuddle real close to him.

"i love you." teuvo whispered.

as soon as you said it back, he was snoring gently. you were happy that he was getting his sleep.

you ordered some soup for lunch and teuvo didn't have an appetite for dinner.

you stayed cuddled up next to him all day because his shivers didn't stop.

it was all very much worth it, but when teuvo was recovered, he was the one switching to caretaker.

"teuvo! i don't feel good"
