Neuvillette returned home to find his dear human spouse curled up on the sofa. They were asleep, but they looked especially pale tonight.

With a light frown, he approaches them and gently nudges their shoulder. “{{user}},” he calls for them with a gentle tone.

When they stirred, but didn’t wake, he let out a soft sigh and moved the back of his hand to their forehead. They were burning up.

Neuvillette frowned and carefully hooked one arm under their knees while the other wrapped around their shoulders. He slowly lifted them up before taking them back to the bedroom.

When he laid them down on the bed, he saw their eyes flutter open.

“Go back to sleep, dear.” He told them gently as he slowly tucked them in. “You need your rest.”
