Billy accepted the cuddle happily, starting to rub her back. "I know, I don't think anyone likes illness."

He wasn't really bothered by that sudden fidget, just confused. "Are you okay?"

Ronnae curled up to her pillow embarrassed and did a small nod. "Y-yeah... Just a shiver is all..." She started holding her breath to try and stop the coughing. Which resulted in her dizzying up and having a coughing fit anyways. Almost tumbling to the floor this time, she just curled up to him and whimpered sadly.

That got Billy's attention quickly. He shifted forward and held her through the coughing fit, patting her back.

"We'll get rid of this," he promised. "Do you want me find more medicine?"

She nodded weakly with a small whine. She was holding onto him however, and didn't seem like she'd let go. Hope you can move with her!

Billy sighed---this was going to be a difficult task to manage one handed. He patted her head one as he went, then stretched himself into an interesting contortion beneath her to reach the pills and water.

"Here, I have pills. Can you swallow one?"

She nodded simply, and opened her mouth up at him sticking her small tongue out. Boomy tried nudging Billy's bag closer to him.

"Thanks Boomy," he whispered to the small bot. When he turned back to Ronnie, he found that she was holding her tongue out expectantly.

Well, he supposed he could do it that way.

Billy held up the water glass, preparing to use it. "You'll have to be ready to swallow after this, all right?" He delicately placed the pill on her tongue, then held the glass to her lips.

She sipped from the glass obediently swallowing the pill. She then looked to the bed, then up to him, then to the bed again then up to him once more with a small pout. It was pretty clear she wanted to lay down again. She just wouldn't let go. She whimpered after a couple of coughs.

Billy followed her gaze up and down. She wanted to rest---which was good, because the pill was supposed to help with that---but she wouldn't do it without him.

"You want me to rest with you?" From his tone, it was clear that he wouldn't refuse her.

Ronnae nodded sheepishly and held on tightly. She coughed into her arm, trying not to get any ickies on Billy.

Billy breathed deeply, gearing up for a long night with her. "Okay. Then we'll rest together."

While they sat upright he kicked off his shoes and removed his glasses. He'd better get comfortable. Ready for bed with an extremely warm Ronnie, he threw back the covers and slipped inside with her.

"It'll be better in the morning."

"Billy... it's cold..." She shifted in the bed a bit rolling around the covers. She pouted at him. "I'm hungry." She rolled back and let her head hang from the side of the bed, making her ponytails drag on the floor. "I'm hot." She coughed a few times before unrolling herself from the covers... onto the floor with a light 'THUMP' "Owie...." She whimpered.

"Ronnie?" She'd rattled off all of those concerns and rolled off the bed before he could react. "Ronnie!"

After a moment, he untangled himself from the sheets and knelt on the floor, scooping her into his lap. "All right, I'll get the soup and crackers if you're still hungry. You can keep the blanket on or off."

She crawled under the covers and hid under the pillows. She peeked from under one and nodded. "Yes please..." Before turtleing back under her fort.

"Soup coming right up."

Billy shifted through the bag and readied the soup and spoon, hopping up on the bed to offer the items to her. "Here."

Ronnie pursed her lips in protest. She figured she might as well get her way while she's sick right? A girl can ask for that much right?! She opened her mouth slightly awaiting the food.

Oh, she wanted to be fed too? Billy could do that, he supposed. Nothing he wouldn't do for a girl he liked. "All right, have it your way."

He spooned out some soup, offering the first sip to her.

She ate it happily, no complaints from her. She seemed really pleased while being fed. Except during her coughing fits, she'd curl up away from him trying to avoid getting anything on him.

Billy was extremely grateful for that courtesy. He relaxed into a rhythm feeding her, and he found in the end that it was cute. Almost everything about her was cute.

When she was done, he set the bowl aside and looked at her again, reaching to push a ponytail over her shoulder. "What do you need now?"

I have all I need right... "Rest I guess..." She pulled the cover over her and curled up beside him looking at him curiously and with a thankful shy smile.

Billy smiled lightly, slipping under the cover beside her and slipping an arm around her waist. "All right, then we'll have rest."

He yawns lightly. That sounds good to him too, actually.

She cuddled on him, her head resting lightly on his chest. She nuzzled her face to it before letting out a small yawn. She draped an arm over his abdomen and curled against him. "Thanks Billy..." She said in a small voice.

That actually felt really nice. Billy carefully arranged the hair over his chest, his arm settling over her shoulders. He was fine with being a teddy bear if it helped Ronnie feel better.

"Any time," he answered her softly, kissing her hair. "Just get better, okay?"

She smiled, nuzzling her face against him again. "Long as you're here... I will." She very lightly traced his abdomen, listening to his heartbeat. Her own breathing was shallow but calm and her body still felt pretty warm.

Billy flushed at the attention, amazed at how good that felt. His breathing was deep and steady---enough to watch her head rise and fall with his chest.

"I know you will," was all he said. "It's not right---you need to be well enough to torment me," he teased.

Not that she wasn't doing that right now.
