Serna nodded.
"Do you have anything you like to drink?" She asked.
Serna nodded.
"Do you have anything you like to drink?" She asked.
"Uhm… Cas never let me have anything other than water, so I dunno. Is there anything you think I'd like?" He asked.
"Well, that was smart of him," Serna said. "Well, we could try out a few things if you want to. Milk, normal tea, coffee, soda pop…"
"Okay… any of that is fine as long as it tastes good." Nix sighed, eyeing the medicine warily.
"Alright then…" Serna settled on the milk, getting Nik some before finally offering him a popsicle.
"Here, eat this before you take the medicine. It's cold."
"How does that help?" Nix asked, accepting the popsicle from Serna and sticking it into his mouth.
"It'll numb your tongue, so it's harder for you to taste the medicine," Serna explained. She sat down again, a cup of the medicine and a cup of milk in front of them.
"Okay…" Nix kept sucking idly on his popsicle with his eyes closed. He was clearly still a bit out of it from being sick.
Serna patted Nix's head gently, hand going back to his stomach.
It took a while, but Nix eventually finished his popsicle. "Mmkay… um… I think I'm ready now."
Serna nodded a bit. She took up the medicine cup, offering it to Nix.
"Here," she said gently. "Go quickly so you don't have to taste it as long."
Nix nodded and quickly downed the medicine, gagging a bit when the taste hit him. He whined and flattened his ears back.
Serna patted Nix's back, talking the empty cup and offering him the milk.
"You did so good sugar," she praised gently.
"S'gross…" Nix mumbled, his eyes stinging with tears as he gulped down his milk. "Cat medicine always tastes like chicken and stuff. If they can make that medicine taste less bad, why can't they do it for people too?"
"Well, they tried to, but it didn't really work." Serna sighed gently, holding Nix close. "Did the milk help, at least?"
"Yeah…" Nix finished off his milk and huddled up against Serna's chest. "Being sick is stupid…" He huffed.
"Yes, it is." Serna gently patted Nix's back, holding him close.
"Mm… snuggles…" Nix snuggled closer to Serna and yawned, his tail flicking back and forth.
Serna chucked weakly, holding Nix close.
Zachary woke up finally, looking down at Cas.
"Mmm…"
Cas stirred a bit at Zachary's whining and looked up at him with a sleepy smile. "Mmm… mornin', love…"
Zachary chucked softly, shaking his head a bit. No, not morning. He kissed Cas's cheek gently.
"Yeah, yeah… evening, afternoon, whatever it is…" Cas yawned a bit and returned the kiss. "I woke up. Congrats."
Zachary laughed lightly. He lightly pulled Cas's stomach. Hungry?
Cas nodded a bit and sat up. "Yeah… I could eat. What about you?" He asked softly.
Zachary nodded, sitting up as well. He kissed Cas's cheek lightly, smiling.
