"You think you can stay awake enough for your treat, or would you like to take a nap?" Simon asked.

Although Naoki really wanted to eat his ice creams he knew it wasn't possible to stay awake for much longer. Shaking his head he leaned on Simon once again and closed his eyes. Soon he was sleeping deeply. After a hour or two his fever was almost gone and his breathing went back to normal pace.

Simon smiled as he held Naoki close once again and nuzzled into Naoki's hair, rubbing Naoki's back gently and slowly. "I love you so much, kitten." he said softly.

Naoki didn't hear that of course, too deeply in his dreams. After few hours passed his fever was gone entirely. Whatever Simon made him drink it helped his body splendidly to fight off the illness. If they would be in town they probably would hear there was few more people getting sick. All of them had their bodies modified by magic as well as Naoki.. and most of them died the first night. The neko shifted in his sleep chuckling softly.

Simon continued to watch Naoki sleep, keeping himself occupied by playing with Naoki's ears and his hair as he heard Naoki chuckle in his sleep.

The boy was slowly waking up when his ears were touched. Opening his eyes he looked up at the mage and slowly smiled.
"You look unhealthy", he said simply and it was a bit funny, because he himself didn't look that good.

"Unhealthy?" Simon asked with a raised eyebrow, thinking Naoki's sick vision was just messing with him.

"Well.. you have drak circles under your eyes. And you are paler than normally", he mumbled, closing his eyes once again only to open them seconds later.
He moved and tried to rise up but he plopped right back, his legs giving in under him. The world he saw before his eyes swirled, making him growl in irritation.

"Well, I've been up for awhile with you. I think Itzel might be in a coma." Simon chuckled softly as he held Naoki against him after he flipped back down.

"My body is all weak... Why?", he asked, his body language showing he wasn't in a good mood already. "I want to go out... And..."
Naoki looked at his stomach and his widened when remembered why it was looking like that.
"Oh shit...", he muttered while touching it. "It looks ridiculous.."
