Work Text:
It was around 7 a.m. , Robin did not have a good night that day, she kept waking up and going to vomit in the bathroom, so when Steve opened her door to wake her up and saw her with a totally not good face.
"Are you okay Robin?"- Said Steve worried since she looked like she hadn't slept in weeks .
"Can I be truly honest?" - Robin replied.
Steve nodded.
"No, I've been waking up to throw up all the night, but I can work just fine, don't worry"- She tried to get out but her body failed her. Steve totally ignored what she said and touched her face.
"Robin, you have a very bad fever, if you don't wanna go to work I'll replace you, but please stay in bed" Steve was genuinely worried since, she's not in a great state.
"But my mom always told me that I needed to push even if I was sick and since then I just kinda went to it, it's not the worst fever I ever had i can handle it, there was this time when i was 10 and i had like over 40°C degree and still went to school it was hell and-" Robin couldn't stop rambling so Steve shush her.
"I'm not letting you out of this bed, I'll call someone to take care of you" - Screamed Steve from the kitchen
Steve called Vickie, when she hears that Robin is really sick she worries, since she hasn't seen her sick, so Vickie asks him if she can help with him getting better.
"Oh" - Robin is going to kill me, or thank me, I hope it's the last one. "Yes, come please I need to replace her at the station since, I don't think we'll like to get fired" Steve hangs the phone, and goes to Robin's room, she is even worse, now trying to get dressed while almost not being able to stand.
"Steve... I can do this, don't worry"
"No, no you can't, and also as your best friend is my responsibility to take care of you, so since I can't, I called Vickie"
Steve couldn't even finish his sentence when Robin screamed
"No, no, no no nono, Steve she can't see me like this, first im not even half dressed and I can't even do anything"
She gets in bed and starts covering her face with a pillow, she's probably overthinking, like her mother always tells her but this was Vickie who they were talking about, her Vickie, the girl she had a crush on for over a year and started dating a few months ago.
"Robin, do I need to remind you that she works as a nurse? she surely has seen worse and I don't. think seeing you half naked is going to make her mad, maybe it makes h-"– Steve was silenced by one of Robin's pillow on this head, she throwed it before even letting him finish.
"Steve, you fucking pervert, fine, I won't go, but you need to tell Vickie that im fine, maybe she has volunteering at the hospital and I don't want to bother her" – She was rambling again, like always, if her mom was there she would scold her at the instant.
"Vickie doesn't work today, she's worried about you" – Steve looks at the hour.
"Shit, I gotta go, she comes in 30 minutes, and if you're really that worried start putting on some pants" He closed the door and got head up, still ignoring what Robin was screaming on her room, just left saying "bye" with a big smile on his face.
Robin spent the whole 30 minutes trying to get a little more decent apparency but she surely did not accomplish that, when she hear the door ring, she tries to go to the door to open it, even when she didn't want her to come, she couldn't let her outside, after like what felt for an eternity she finally go to the door.
"Hey Vick, so... how are you?"– Robin just fell into her arms, the sickness was finally affecting her, she had to admit that she did not look presentable, she was in a pajama, which was smaller than her size since she forgot to buy a new one.
"Robin, god you're burning, why would you even get up, you need to rest, don't worry about anything I will take care of you but please stay in your bed"– She was helping Robin get to her room, since Robin is not in that pretty good of state and she kinda knew their house.
"Okay Robin I'm gonna just measure your temperature, since you're quite literally burning"–
At this point Robin wasn't even thinking , it was one thing being sick but now her girlfriend, her beautiful girlfriend was trying to help her, which made her look even more like a tomato.
"You truly are sick, 104°F/40°C ill bring you medicine and a towel, it will help you to cool down"
"You know what's really hot?"
Robin said while she was playing flirty with her hair, trying her best to look cool while being sick
"You, my beautiful, lovely girlfriend"
She grabbed Vickie by the waist to not let her go, since she did appreciate her company in these moments.
"Not the moment right now, but right now you're hot in both senses, I'm gonna have to take one"
She removed Robin's arms from her waist and got up, not before kissing her gf nose, not safe since she could get sick too, but she didn't think much of it. Robin waited for a bit, since she knows Vickie overthinks and has probably brought every possible medicine to cure her sickness, while it was cute she didn't want her girlfriend to be that worried for her.
"I'm back, with medicine that totally/j tastes well"
"In that case, I could have your lipstick in between, it will first help me with the taste of that"-. Said as she pointed the whole table of pills and medicine she brought.
"And.. I want to kiss since you've been so good to me, so if you let me, I won't protest for the taste of the medicine"
"Robbie..."- She rested one of her hands on the other's face while trying to feed her the medicine.
"I don't want to get sick too, so just one, remember one, and you can't complain about the taste of it".- Since Robin wanted to start being a bit flirty so did she, she got herself on top of robin, giving her the medicine slowly just in case anything could get on the bed, a few minutes later Vickie finished, she kissed Robin in the lips fast and sat in the corner of the bed.
"And.. This is it, you'll get better slowly now".
A few hours happened, the two girls were talking about a little bit of everything, Robin didn't even notice how she got better, just the feeling of having Vickie there helped so much, she loved that girl with her whole heart.
"You know.. since I'm kinda getting better could we kiss again.. I mean I get it if you don't want to get sick but you kissed me before and it just helps"
Before they even noticed they were kissing, not the most responsible thought but they both wanted it, in the end(and for their luck) Vickie did not get sick and Robin was better the next morning.
