Warnings; Fluff. Gaara not feeling good. this is kinda long. mention of throwing up and flushing a toilet.
Your poor, sweet, baby Gaara, also known as (the kazekage) is laying on you like your a teddy bear.
His body is between your legs, head on your chest and his arm's are around you with his hand's on your upper back, and he's been like this for about 20 minutes, it's probably the longest he hasn't moved all day,
you feel bad you don't get to lay like this that often, and about him feeling bad, all you can do is help him feel more comfortable while you cuddle close together,
You didn't have anything to do today so you figured you'd sleep in and go to Gaara's office to say "hi" later, because most likely he'd be gone for work by the time you got up, and you talked about it with him a little and what he'd be doing today before going to sleep,
you wake up to Gaara tapping you gently on the shoulder, you can see from the light in the room as you peek your eyes open that it's really early, most likely 7am, you were pretty irritated but that all goes away the second you look up at gaara's frustrated face,
he's standing at your side of the bed half way dressed looking very uncomfortable, you sit up as quick you can "what happened? are you ok?" you say groggily
Gaara sits on the bed and starts telling you about how he woke up like normal (smiling at your sleeping face against the mattress) and as he was getting dressed his stomach started feeling weird, so he sat down & waited a little longer before going to work to see if it would go away. five minutes later, he was throwing up,
after saying that he looks down and a weird look comes over his adorable face,
Gaara stands up quickly and goes to the bathroom and shuts the door behind himself,
You were pretty sure you know what he has since you went through something very similar and it ended up being food poisoning, so you know it's only gonna get worse,
you get up and go to the bathroom door and when the (noice) stop's, you knock softly,
"honey? did you call in to work already?"
a few seconds go by and you hear the toilet flush,
"no. do I have to?" he says as he opens the door,
you put your hands on his cheeks and his skin feels warm, "yes, you do sweetheart I think you have food poisoning, I had it once and if it's like mine was it's gonna get worse."
He looks down and furrows his "eyebrows" and deeply sigh's,
You lift up his face to make him look at you and smile "hey, go get in some comfy clothes and lay down, I'll call in for you & get you some soup, okay" you say in a soft voice,
he nodded and smiles softly "thank you, love" then he walks past you to the closet.
the first thing you did is put a bucket next to the bed just in case he doesn't feel like he can make it to the bathroom,
then you called in for him which was more of a struggle than it needed to be.
A few hours go by fast and chaotic,
IT DID, it did get worse, he's been sweating and throwing up, he got a headache and a fever,
And here we are, 6 hours after the start of this bad day, and he's been tossing and turning in bed all day,
you've stayed off the bed all day for some reason, he complained about how it was so difficult to sleep, "will you lay down with me please?" he said with tired eyes,
so now your laying on your back, up against some pillows,
a half eaten bowl of soup and a electrolyte drink on his side table, he had some but couldn't keep it down,
Gaara's head is on your chest which seems to be one of his favorite places to lay, his arms around your rib cage, hands on your upper back hugging you tightly but not enough to hurt,
you've been reading a book while he's been what you think is sleeping on you, sometimes you read a few words out loud and he'll shift a little,
"I'm sorry I ruined your day off" he mumbles
you look down at him, eyes still closed cheek still against your chest,
"Sweetheart you didn't ruin anything" you say looking at him with furrowed eyebrows,
he opens his eyes and looks up at you shocked at what you said, "did I say that out loud?" he asks,
you drop the book off to your side, and kiss him on his forehead then his cheek while hugging him close with your legs and arms,
"there's no way I'd rather have spent today Gaara, I love you so much and I'll always be right here to take care of you when your not feeling good, okay?"
He puts his arms around your neck and hug's you back as he barries his face into your neck trying to hide his pink face, that some might be from being sick, "I love you too, and I'm feeling a little better" he says, muffled by your shirt,
"I hope you haven't been feeling bad about that all day."
"I kinda felt bad about waking you up that early"
"it's okay honey, you could've woken me up when your stomach first started feeling weird and it would've been okay"
"Okay, thank you y/n, I think I'm gonna try to get some more sleep ok?"
he lays back on your chest, soft smile on his face you what to squeeze him and squeal about how adorable he is but your not sure if it will make him toss his cookies again so you hold back,
"Okay gaara" you say kissing him on the head and running your fingers through his beautiful red hair.
Just a normal day
Night before Gaara's birthday he thinks back to the old him
Lil bit of angst
Gaara thought a lot about how he used to be, how he used to think, how he used to feel, and how he used to spend his birthday's,
Gaara's laying on his back waiting for y/n to come to bed, looking at the ceiling thinking about tomorrow.
he prefers his birthday not to be fussd over, and most people new that, he didn't grow up with birthday party's so he isn't used to it.
When Gaara was younger he hated living, but refused to die, he convinced himself he prefers to be alone, but the fact that he was alone on his 11th birthday made him more sad, lonely, angry at the world for putting him in this place.
back to NOW Gaara, he has love now, from his friends, siblings and his girlfriend y/n, they all helped him a lot.
Y/n & him has talked about how a surprise party is one of the last things he wanted, he wanted it to be a normal day for him and everyone.
his thoughts stopped when y/n got in bed, she pulled him over until his cheek was against her chast, he relaxed to the sound of her heartbeat, she kissed him on the top of his head & hug's him close, her hands rubbing his back & head, he smiles softly & hug's her back as he thinks about how different he is now,
he loves & is loved back, comfortable with being held & not only sleeping next to someone but refusing to sleep without contact. he loves how it feels to have her there, were he can hug, kiss, & talk to her. Gaara started to fall asleep, excited about sleeping in & cuddling on his day off.
"goodnight Gaara"
"goodnight love"
