Cw: infection, sick fic, injury, blood, fever, implied sedation/drugging, implied medical shit
Caretaker sighed, their hand brushing over Whumpee’s fevered forehead, pushing their sweat-soaked bangs.
“hh..hurts…” Whumpee whimpered, cringing away from Caretaker’s icy hand.
“I know darling, I know. Just a few more hours, then you can have some more painkillers,” They whispered soothingly, pulling their hand away when they noticed it only caused Whumpee more discomfort.
“nn… pl’se….”
“I’m sorry, Whumpee,” They whispered, instead beginning to card their fingers through Whumpee’s damp hair, their eyes traveling down to rest on the bloodstained bandages wrapped around Whumpee’s midriff. If their fever got any worse, they’d have to bring Whumpee to the hospital, despite their protests. They couldn’t risk losing them again.
For now, they could only hope the sedatives would kick in soon.
“I’m so, so sorry. It’ll be over soon, I promise…”
