warnette + 29 âYou look so comfy, and cuddle-able.â
ohhh yay!! one warnette request!! sorry itâs been so long ^^ââ
 âJuliette, love⊠I really need to leave.â Aaron said, though he made nomove to change his position.
Juliette snuggled closer, âNo, post-pone the meeting. I did it withmine.â
He chuckled, âBecause you werenât feeling well. And after I insisted onyou doing exactly that. You were halfway through the door before I caught you.â
âI wasnât thatâŠâ A sneeze interrupted her then. Juliette sniffed alittle and ignored Aaronâs knowing grin, âI was just a little dizzy. But youwere right, it was better to leave it for tomorrow.â
âEspecially since I stuck around?â He offered.
Juliette hummed in agreement.
âJuliette, love!â Aaron rushed to her side, quick to catch her beforeshe lost her footing.
She tried to shoo him off, but his hands were like hooks on her, âIâmfine. I have a meeting with Castle!â A very important meeting. She was sure ofthat, even if she wasnât sure about the meetingâs topic right now. Her head waslight and spinning, and everything was both hot and cold.
âLove, you canât go anywhere like that. This is what happens when you goout in a storm with the wrong coat.â
âYou and your fashion advice⊠I really had to go out there, ok? Thosekids needed my help.â
All along,Aaron tugged her back to their bedroom, patiently listening to her rambling onand on, âI know, love, but you still got sick and you still need to lie downand rest for a while. Iâll have some soup brought over before I leave.â
Tugged backinto bed, Juliette frowned at him, âLeave? You canât.â
Aaronchuckled as he leaned down to check her temperature. His hands were warm andtender. He smiled, âYou donât seem to have a fever, so this is probably just acold. Still, a warm meal and some medicine will do you good, love.â He lookeddown to his hand. Juliette held it in her rock-hard grip. âLoveâŠâ
âStayâŠâ Shepouted, âYou look so comfy and cuddle-ableâŠâ
The cornersof his lips tugged up in a soft smile, âI suppose I still have time for a fewcuddles. If you promise to eat and drink whatever I give you and change thatmeeting for tomorrow.â
Julietteâspout turned sour. But his gaze was unwavering and after a moment she sighed anddropped the façade, âOk. I agree. Now please⊠Cuddles.â
Aaron took offhis shoes and jacket and joined her under the blankets. Juliette was quick tosnuggle up to him, sighing wistfully as he put an arm around her shoulders andkissed her crown, âYou are very clingy when youâre sick, love.â
âShut up.You love it.â
His onlyreply was a bark of laughter.
Hourslater, and after changing his meetingâs time three times, Aaron was starting towonder how serious Julietteâs sickness really was. The medicine and the foodhad improved her complexion quite a lot, but she still sneezed and clung to himlike earlier that day. Not exactly the signs he needed, though.
âLove⊠Iâllbe away for half an hour, tops.â Juliette nuzzled her nose against his neck.Aaronâs eyes rolled in their sockets, a soft moan stuck between his teeth. Shewas⊠very persuasive. âAt the very least let me call Kishimoto.â
One ofJulietteâs hand snaked under his shirt as Aaron slowly realised she wassmiling. So, his suspicions were correct. Of course. âIâll feel much better inthe morning if you do that, Aaron.â
He shookhis head and brought her lips to his for a quick peck, âYou are devious. Howsick are you, love?â
She flasheda smile innocent enough to fool maybe one or two random soldiers. But not him.The glint in her eyes told him quite a lot. âIâm still sick. But Iâm betternow. I guessâŠâ She leaned in to kiss under his jaw, âYou are an excellentmedicineâŠâ
âYou aregoing to rule the world one day, Juliette. I swear.â He let out in a strainedvoice, trying his best to not lose it just yet. There was still one phone callto make.
Julietteseemed to be on the same page, âGo make that call. I think Iâm growing dizzy.âShe said, tone suggestive enough to make him ponder if maybe Kishimoto shouldjust wait indefinitely. But then he remembered than the payback would be rathersour.
âIâll useour phone.â
Juliettebeamed, âWonderful!â
