Gabenath the flu

Chapter 3

Not long later he fell asleep too.

2:45pm

Nathalie begins to wake up.
To see Gabriel asleep next to her. She touched the cold cloth on the back of her neck but from how ever long she was asleep it was now hot.

" Achoo sniff sniff."

She buried her head into Gabriel's jacket and started coughing trying not to wake him up.

She all of a sudden felt someone gently rub her back.

"It's okay dear."
He said almost whispering.

She also felt him remove the cloth from her neck.

She looked up before saying.

"G-Ga-briel."

She said in between coughs.

"Don't talk too much ok."

He said gently before pulling her head back into his chest.

3:08

Nathalie had stopped coughing and was now just cuddled up in Gabriel's arms with a fresh cold cloth round her neck.

Knock knock

Gabriel jilted up pulling Nathalie up with him.

"C-come in."
His tone hardened.

Adrian walked in.

"Well there's my answer to the first question and umm where is my schedule."

Gabriel looked at Nathalie.

"I-it's o-on m-my d-des-k I p-pri-inted it.

"There should be a printed copy on Nathalie's desk."

"Thanks."

Adrian said before going to find it.

Nathalie had turned bright red from not wanting anyone to see her like this in Gabriel's arms Gabriel was also red not knowing what Adrian thought was going on.

"N-Nathalie is there anything I can get you."

"N-no ju-just p-p-please s-st-stay."

"Of course I will but I need to finish some designs so I'll be right back ok."

Nathalie slightly nodded and let go of his jacket.

Gabriel got up and went into the office to get his table.

3:19

Gabriel came back in the room to see Nathalie curled up in a ball shivering and he could hear her softly crying.

"Nathalie?"

He shut the door and ran over to her. He gently pulled her into his arms cradling her. Her head gently rested on his chest as she continue to cry.

"N-Nathalie what's wrong."

"I-it-it h-hur-hurts."

"What hurts."

He said in a calmer tone and also began to gently rock her.

"M-m-my th-throat it-it b-burs."

"It.....it's going to be ok."

He said pulling her head into his chest. What can I do what can I do!!! He thought to him self over and over again until it close klick.

"I-I'll be right back."
