Mario cooed to soothe his boyfriend as he let out another cough. A heat wave had struck their island and while you would think this wouldn't affect an ice user, heat waves actually make them incredibly sick as they can't get their bodies down to the temperature they need them to be at.

So Daveed was stuck in bed, and Mario was taking care of him. The dragon slayer gently replaced the now warm cloth with another cold one. Daveed coughed again, leaning into his boyfriend's touch as Mario's hands carded through his hair. Mario was sat so that he was against the headboard and holding Daveed's head in his lap.

"Hate this." Daveed whined.

"I know you do." Mario cooed gently at him. "Just try and relax until the heat wave is over."

"Hate heat waves..." He whined.

"Shhhhh, try and sleep." Mario told him gently.

"Too hot..." Daveed buried his face into Mario's stomach, causing the cloth to fall off his face.

Mario chuckled and put the cloth back where it belonged. Daveed was like a little kitten when he was sick, which was too cute. Mario hated to see his boyfriend so miserable though. But there wasn't anything he could do other than take care of him while he was sick. And that was exactly what the dragon slayer planned on doing.
