But right now she's here. They're both here, safe and sound, sans sickness and injury. ...isn't that part of wedding vows? "In sickness and in health"? Part of his mind lunges towards those four little words, but somewhere on the journey from brain to mouth they get lost, garbled by the fever and distracted by the way she wraps their pinkies around one another.
Like childhood friends. Or sweethearts. His heart gives a little leap and a stutter, while his eyes flutter drowsily. He has something so important to tell her... What was it...? He can't recall. Helpless to catch that train of thought again, he nods, sighing as her cooler skin comes into contact with his much hotter flesh. It's like being dipped in a pool of bliss, one that lulls him into a complete sense of security and peace.]
Mmm... Yes, please...
[With his face tucked against her chest, his breathing finally slows until at last he snores softly, legs still and no longer twitching from aches and pains.]
