Chapter 49 - CHAPTER 48- HER SICKNESS, HIS CARE

CONTINUATION:

Jay POV:

He carefully carried me inside the car and buckled my seatbelt. He kissed my forehead gently and give me tissue packet, just in case I need it. How do I deserve him? He got in his car and held my hand while driving, to reassure that I will be fine, which honestly helped a lot. But I was still shocked, that he wrote my exam for me.

Jay: You shouldn't have written the exam for me

Kiefer: I didn't want you to fail after studying so much

Jay: What if you got caught? Your efforts would have been a waste as well

Kiefer: Sir Alvin was outside taking a call, so he wouldn't have found out anyway

Jay: You still shouldn't have

Kiefer: If you had failed, boss would have scolded you and you would have cried. Now, I don't want my future wife crying, because I hate seeing you cry.

I couldn't stop my smile and the heat creeping up my neck. I looked at the window, so that he couldn't see me blushing, but he figured it out.

Kiefer: My cute wifey is blushing now. You look adorable, when you blush.

I blushed even more at that. He is the only one, who can make me blush furiously, while I am sick. After 5 minutes I was feeling sleepy again, so I fell asleep again.

Kiefer POV:

My princess fell asleep after blushing so furiously. I squeezed her hand gently, so she can still feel my presence. We reached my house or what Jay likes to call "palace". It is not as big as she makes it seem. Anyways I didn't want to wake her up, since it is hard to fall asleep again, so I just carried her bridal style. She stirred a bit, but she didn't wake up. She just nuzzled her head in my neck. I went to our room and laid her down in our bed. Yes, ours. Because what is mine, is ours. And this house is mine, so it is hers as well. I was going to go to the living room to let her sleep in peace, but she didn't let go of my hand. She murmured

Jay (murmured): Stay...

Kiefer (whispered): I won't leave, love

I laid myself down on the bed and hugged her by the stomach gently. I didn't know when I drifted off to sleep.

2 HOURS LATER...

I woke up and the first person I saw was Jay, who is nuzzled against my chest. I cleared some strands of her hair away from her face and checked her forehead. She was burning a little, so I got up and brought a towel with a bowl of cold water. I placed the bowl on the nightstand and put the towel in the cold water. I put it on her forehead, while kissing her cheek gently, so that she doesn't wake up to the sudden cold and to comfort her. After a while she cooled down, so I laid down beside her and hugged her from behind. After a few minutes she stirred awake, I was pretending to sleep, to see what she would do, when I was "asleep". She first was still confused, but then she noticed me hugging her. I loosened my grip a bit. Just enough for her to turn to face me, but not enough for her to get out of bed. She shifted and was facing me now. It felt like she was staring at me. She started touching my face. She started touching my eyebrows, nose and she even pulled my cheeks gently. She giggled a bit and said

Jay (voice thick with sleep): My hubby has chubby cheeks

Did she just call me hubby??? I am trying so hard not to blush right, but it wasn't working. So, I buried my face in her neck while I was "sleeping". She giggled even more and started caressing my hair. After that she pulled a bit back and gently traced my eyes

Jay (whispering): He looks so peaceful and handsome, when he sleeps. Don't worry, I promise I will let you live in peace as long as I am here breathing

I wanted to open my eyes kiss her, but then she will know I was pretending to sleep and I also wanted to know what she would do next. So, I kept "sleeping". She then traced my lips

Jay: God, why does he have to be so handsome? How do I deserve him?

My heart was racing and heat was creeping up my ears, so I buried my head in her neck again. She chuckled

Jay (murmured): Even in his sleep, he finds me and never lets me go

She traced my lips again and said

Jay: Why are his lips so addicting? I won't right now, I don't want him sick

I pulled away from her neck and hugged her tighter, so she is very close to me. So close, that my nose is brushing hers.

Jay: I want to kiss you, but I can't. You will get sick

 pretended to snore a bit. She chuckled

Jay: You even answer in your sleep

She didn't kiss me, but she brushed her nose against mine as a compensation. It was a win, but I wanted something else. I pretended to stir awake slowly. Meanwhile she turned her back to my chest. Probably, because she didn't want to infect me.

Kiefer (voice thick with sleep): How do you feel?

Jay: I am fine

Kiefer: No, you aren't. Your voice sounds different, which means your nose is blocked and you throat still hurts *turned her around and checked her forehead* Well, at least no fever.

She grinned and said: See, I am fine!

At that moment she coughed and sneezed.

Kiefer: That doesn't sound fine to me. Stay here, I will be right back

I went to the bathroom, to get her cough medicine and a nasal spray, to make her feel better. I also got her a glass of water from the kitchen and asked the chef to cook soup for her. I went upstairs and gave her medicine.

Jay: Kief, I am fine. You don't have to take care of me. You have to go to school. *takes the medicine anyway*

Kiefer: No, I am not leaving you here alone with a cold.

Jay: But-

Kiefer: No buts. I am staying here and you cannot convince me to leave

Jay seemed to figure out, that I would be very stubborn on this topic, so she stayed quiet. After a while a knock came. I opened the door and the maid came in with the soup

Kiefer: You can put it on the night stand

The maid put it there and went out the room. I sat at the side of the bed and I fed her

Jay: I have hands, Kiefer

Kiefer: Well, you won't need to use them 

She just smiled after that. I fed her the soup, made her change clothes in the bathroom and made her lay down. After a while her breathing softened a bit. I was about to go, when her grip on my hand tightened and she murmured

Jay (murmured): Please stay...

Kiefer (voice soft): I am always with you, Jay *kisses her forehead*

I laid down beside her and pulled her close to my chest. After a few minutes, I also drifted off to sleep.
