When you noticed your boyfriend, Kasper, beginning to fall sick, you didn't think much of it and went to his apartment just for emotional support. Sickness isn't a reason to let your partner rot away in misery, so you made sure to shower him with as much affection as you usually would, however you'd like to do that. You obviously felt yourself become sick after so many visits, but it was expected. By the time you had a full blown cold, Kasper still wasn't better. It concerned you.

Overtime, your memory faded. Many things you forgot, but Kasper always lingered in your mind. Kasper..no, Infected was his name. Getting up everyday and waiting an excruciating amount of time in the elevator to reach Infected's apartment drained you, so you just decided to move in with him. You two had been together long enough, what's the harm?

It was going good for you. You got along relavitley well with Infected's roommate, Unpleasant. Infected seemed to hate them, so you just tried to keep your distance from the weird gradient. You lay on Infected's bed..or, the red couhc he used as a bed, phone in hand as you mindlessly scrolled. Each friend on every social media app seemed more and more unfamiliar. Each photo, you didn't remember taking. You paid it no mind, looking up to see the desk across the room with Infected sat at it.

A sniffle came from him, and he raised his arm, wiping his nose before lowering his hand back to his mouse. Really captivated in his games, as usual. Gunshots emitted from the computer, and you had half a mind to tell him to turn the volume down. You found yourself coughing, but managed to calm down before any concern could flare. It was awfully quiet, and frankly, boring.
