We are both sick.

After yesterdays beach day in the rain, we caught inevitable colds.

Which is why we're now both lying in her bed, trying to figure out who can throw the most tissues into the bin that's at then end.

I'm winning, I think.

I called my brother over an hour ago asking if he could make us soup and about half an hour ago they, meaning my brother and Cairo, stormed into the house.

Now, they're making in the middle of making us soup, nona's recipe of course.

"If I pulled out a knife and stabbed you right now what would you do?"

I'm not quite sure how to answer that.

"I would get the knife off of you before you got to stab me?"

"Hm, boring." She comments and I roll my eyes.

What the fuck did she want me to say.

"Knock knock." Cairo sings, opening the door as he does.

"Hey Cairo." Valentina says before blowing her nose.

He gives her a sympathetic look. "Poor thing, have some soup." Rushing to her side, he places the bowl in her lap and moves her pillows so that she can sit up.

Once he's done fussing Valentina I cough loudly to get his attention onto me.

"Don't look at me like that, yours is coming now and this is your fault anyway. Valentina says that you threw her into the water and it was your idea to go swimming in the sea. So I think that you should sit there and reflect."

I roll my eyes at him and glare when he passes me a bowl of soup. I adjust my own pillows by myself and start eating as he leaves the room.

Pressing play on the laptop in front of us, we resume watching our new favourite show.

Brooklyn 99.

She bets me $20 that Jake will get together with Amy by the third season, I'm not so sure but I could do with a chance of getting $20 from her so I agree to a bet.

I don't want the money but I don't want her to have it either so I'm kinda just stuck.

"You literally have a cinema in you're basement, why are we watching this on a MacBook again?"

"Unless you want to move from the comfy bed I'd shut up." I groan and stretch out my arms, purposefully placing my palm over her face and pushing her back into the headboard.

She pushes my palm off and gives me a look as if to say 'really?'. I send her in innocent smile.

I love annoying her.

"Ha!" She exclaims, moving on from our little stare off, focusing back onto the show. "He just admitted that he liked her."

"They're not together yet though." I point out and she huffs.

"Yet, they will. The chemistry that they have is so obvious."

We spend most of the day in bed resting cause we both have to go into the office tomorrow and it's only a small cold.

Matteo is just dramatic.

It's dark outside when Matteo and I decide that we want to order some food since Cairo and his brother went out to dinner.

On a date.
