Because I'm sick right now.
-also this follows the trans!Nico head cannon.

Will didn't expect to be awoken at 2 am Friday morning to the sound of gaging. He glanced over, saw Nico's side of the bed empty, and quickly made his way to the bathroom, where he saw him kneeling in front of the toilet, his head practically inside the bowl.

Will walked over and ran his hands through Nico's hair, holding his bangs back as he threw up. When his stomach was positively empty, he leaned back.

"Will," he whined, reaching out and holding on to his arm. Will leaned forward and pressed a kiss into Nico's hair, then grabbed a washcloth off the counter and wiped Nico's mouth.

"I'm going to go get you a glass of water, okay?" Nico nodded, and Will got up and went to the kitchen.

Will wasn't to terribly surprised that Nico had thrown up, the past few days his nose had been congested and he constantly complained about his head and his throat hurting. He knows he probably should have taken him to the doctor, and he had tried, but Nico was to stubborn and so Will decided he should just let him get sick in time of annoyance.

But he regrets it now, seeing Nico so miserable. With a sigh, he makes his way back to the bathroom and hands Nico the glass.

Nico rinses his mouth with the water, and spits it out into the toilet, then flushed it. Standing up, Nico grabs the mouth wash and rinses his mouth with that as well.

"Is there anything you need? Pain killers or a shower or something?" Nico shakes his head.

"I just want to sleep." Will nodded, taking hold of Nico's hand and guiding him to their bedroom.

Slowly, Will and Nico settle down, Nico snuggling close to Will an enjoying the warmth of Will's arms wrapped around him.

The next time Will woke up, Nico was sitting next to him, tears streaming down his face.

"Nico?" He sat up groggily, "What's wrong, sweetheart?" Nico sniffled, glanced at Will, and then pulled back the covers.

Will was confused at first, untill he looked down and saw the blood.

"Nico," He mumbled softly, looking up as more tears fell. He pulled Nico into a hug, and Nico cried into his shoulder.

Will slowly rocked them side to side in an attempt to comfort Nico, along with rubbing circles on his back and whispering sweet nothings into his ear.

"Sorry," Nico sniffled, wiping at his eyes once he had stopped crying.

"Don't be, it's okay," Will replied, running a hand through Nico's hair, "how about you take a shower? I can put the sheets in the washer, alright?"

"Can you shower with me?" Nico sniffled. Will smiled and nodded.

"Of course. You can get the water ready while I take the sheets. I could also throw your shorts in there as well? Hopefully they won't stain." Nico nodded, scooting his way to the edge of the bed, then rushing to the bathroom.

Will got up as well, and took off the sheets. He sighed when he saw that it had bled through to the mattress as well. Choosing to deal with it later, he started walking to the washing machine, stopping by the bathroom to take Nico's spoiled shorts and boxers.

Once he started the washer, he made his way back to the bathroom, stepping into the warm water with Nico.

Nico was quick to wrap his arms around Will, sighing contently.

"How are you feeling?" Will asked softly.

"My head hurts," he responded, "Do you think we could sit down, maybe? I'm also kinda dizzy." Will nodded, and together they sat on the shower floor.

"Can I wash your hair?" Will asked softly, to which Nico nodded. Nico sighed happily as Will's fingers massaged his scalp. After rinsing his hair, he watched as Will shampooed his own hair. Nico wanted to be the one washing his hair, but he figured if he was to lift his arms he would probably fall over or throw up because his stomach was hurting.

He wasn't sure if it was because he was sick or because of his period, either way though, he leaned forward and reseted his forehead on Will's chest, willing the nausea away.

"Nico? Are you okay?" Will asked, placing a soapy hand on his back.

"Mm," Nico hummed in an uncomfortable way, wrapping his arms around his stomach, "my stomach hurts. I feel nauseous." Will leaned forward, and Nico assumes it was to get the soap out of his hair. After a minute he was sitting normally again and wrapped both arms around Nico.

"Do you think you're going to be sick?"

"I don't know," Nico mumbled after a moment, "just hold me, please?" Agreeing, Will held Nico a bit tighter. They sat like that in silence for a while, untill Nico leaned back looking pale. He got up and stepped out of the shower, gagging into the toilet since there was nothing in his stomach. Will got out as well, turning the water off then wrapping a towel around Nico and then himself.

Nico leaned against Will's legs when he was done. Will ran a hand through Nico's dripping hair, and Nico sighed, closing his eyes.

"I'm going to get you some fresh clothes. Is there anything else you need?" Nico blushed a buried his head in Will's leg.

"A pad," he mumbled so quietly, Will almost missed it.

"Yeah, I'll be right back," Nico moves off of Will, pulling the towel tighter around him. Will walked out of the room, and Nico took a deep breath, wishing the pain in his stomach and head would go away.

A few minutes later, Will walked back in and set a pair of folded clothes (and thankfully a pad on top) on the sink counter, and helped Nico stand up.

"I'm going to go put sheets on the bed, or do you need me to stay?" Will asked softly, kissing Nico's forehead. Nico shook his head.

"No, I need to use the restroom." He mumbled quietly.

"Just give a shout if you need me," Will replied, kissing Nico's cheek, then walking out of the bathroom and closing the door.

He made quick work of getting sheets on the bed (choosing to just ignore the stain on the mattress, it's not like anyone would see it anyway) then made a quick call to his work, and got the day off.

As he sat down, Nico walked into the room, looking tired.

"My head and stomach hurts," he mumbled miserably, shuffling forward and laying down on the bed with a relived sigh.

"Do you think you can stomach some medicine?" Will asked, gently putting his hand on Nico's stomach, and Nico gave a small nod of the head.

After Nico took the medicine, the two cuddle untill they both fell asleep.
