Work Text:
Alex has always had terrible allergies but it seems like spending springtime in England was the worst idea ever. Alex couldn’t get his normal allergy medicine in London and he’s tried just about all the ones he could find in London but none of them worked. Alex could barely go 15 minutes without sneezing and Henry was finding it all amusing.

“I’m glad you’re enjoying my struggle asshole.” Alex mumbled, voice distorted from his full sinuses’.
“I’m sorry for laughing love.” Henry tried composing himself but it was hard.
“It’s not my fault that all of England is out to get me and that I can’t get my normal medication. If I knew it would be this bad I would’ve brought some with me.” Alex started sneezing, taking the tissue that Henry held out toward him.
“I know love. Are you sure none of them have helped at all?” Henry has called for all the allergy medicine that could be found when Alex’s allergies started acting up. But so far none of them had been any help.
“No.” Alex pouted, arms crossing over his chest as he did. Henry shouldn’t find it as adorable as he did but he couldn’t help it. Even with a red nose and pout, Alex was the most adorable person in the world.
“Is there anything I can do to help you and make you feel better love?”
“I want cuddles!” Alex demanded, arm reaching up toward Henry where the American was lying in their bed.
“Of course.” Henry slid into bed beside Alex, allowing the other man to lay across him. Henry’s nose wrinkled when Alex’s snotty nose was pressed into his neck but he didn’t say anything. He knew that Alex wasn’t feeling good and decided to give him a pass, this time. For a few minutes, everything was fine until Alex started sneezing and couldn’t stop. Henry sat the two up, giving Alex a tissue each time he reached for one. When he finally stopped he flopped down onto the bed with a groan. The tissues that had accumulated on the bed flying around; some landed back on the bed and some floated to the floor.
“I hate this. Is it too late to go back home?” Alex pouted up at Henry, hoping for some sympathy from his boyfriend.
“A bit but you’ll get through this. Why don’t you take a little nap, hopefully, you’ll feel better when you wake up.” Henry ran his fingers through Alex’s hair, pushing the curls back and off his forehead.
“Ok. Can we have more cuddles? I promise I’ll try not to sneeze on you again.”
“Yes, baby.” Henry once again laid down with Alex, bringing the other man into his arms. Alex’s head was resting on Alex’s chest and it didn’t take long until he was starting to fall asleep. Henry leaned down and pressed a long kiss to Alex’s forehead, feeling the other man relax against his chest as he fell asleep.
Henry wasn’t sure how long the two lay there while Alex slept. Henry was on his phone when he heard his door creak open, he turned to see who it was and saw Shaan peeking into the room.
“Sorry to disturb you but the package you had expedited has arrived.” Shaan held up a small package.
“Ok thank you, can you set it on the table, I don’t want to disturb him.”
“Of course your Royal Highness.” Shaan entered the room, setting the small box on the table and with a bow left the two alone again. Henry smiled to himself, hoping Alex was happy with his surprise.

Alex was happy when he opened the box and found three boxes of his allergy medication. He wrapped Henry into a hug before immediately taking two pills, hoping for his allergies to be gone finally. It took two days and several pills before Alex felt better. He was forever grateful for Henry getting his medicine for him, thanking him in many different way (it took three days before they finally left their room).
