[exchangeable]

It's not hard.

[ He lifts his hand, using the whole thing to brush the tears from his cheek. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[He groans, grabbing a hold of that hand with both of his.] I'll get better! [He sniffles, proceeding to wipe the remaining tears himself.]

[exchangeable]

I believe you.

[ Though his tone is a bit teasing. He seems tired, but that's probably the sickness talking. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[There's a few more quiet sniffles, as he looks back up to him. Have long have they been talking? He reaches up to press his hand on his cheek. He's so warm.] . . . You should focus on getting better yourself.

[exchangeable]

I'll be fine . . .

[ He lets out a huff at that, though it's a weak protest at best. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[He scoffs, poking his cheek.] You're not convincing anyone with that.

[exchangeable]

[ ughhhHHH. He lays back with a sigh. Resting is the worst. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[He pulls up the covers, patting him on the chest.] The sooner you stop complaining, the sooner you'll be back on your feet.

[exchangeable]

I can multi-task.

[ grumble grumble. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[That gets a laugh from him.] Now you're just being childish.

[exchangeable]

Says the man who never gets sick.

[ He might be sulking now. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

I take better care of myself. [Burn.] I've gotten sick once, but I was actually a kid back then.

[exchangeable]

[ He just groans in response. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[He nudges him.] Are you just going to be like this the whole time...?

[exchangeable]

Maybe.

[ Probably. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

I can get out of this bed, then you won't have anyone to complain to. [Can he actually leave though?]

[exchangeable]

You're not wrong.

[ He definitely doesn't look like he wants him to leave, though. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

I'll do it. [He's moving in bed at least.]

[exchangeable]

[ He quietly grabs for his wrist, fingers clinging to the fabric of his sleeve. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

. . .[Dammit. He sighs deeply, slipping back over to his side.] I'm tired, and it's your fault.

[exchangeable]

[ He pulls his hand back, shaking his head. ]

No, it's fine. I'll go back to sleep shortly . . . you should go then.

[ryuwrighthistory]

. . .yea. [He hasn't forgotten what happened when Asougi fell asleep though. He squeezes his hand, rubbing it with his thumb.] At this rate, I may end up joining you anyway. [He really is tired. Dinner can probably wait.]

[exchangeable]

Don't let me keep you.

[ He's been selfish enough already today. ]

[ryuwrighthistory]

[He shakes his head.] Too late. Dealing with your stubbornness is exhausting.

[exchangeable]

You're exhausting.

[ It's a murmured retort though as he leans in against him. ]
