Omega19x: *Ryou walks into Malik's room.* "hey... I've heard you up and about today. That's a good sign."
ph33r my rod: *is doing a few leg exercises, looks over at him* "Yeah... I can walk further now." *grins* "Only a matter of time before I'll be moving about again~"
Omega19x: *weak smile*
Omega19x: "That's good..."
ph33r my rod: *stands up, stretching his leg a little* "...you feeling better than yesterday?"
Omega19x: "... better than... this morning, you mean?"
Omega19x: "I... I felt the same way today..."
Omega19x: "... Throwing up this morning... but... but whatever it is... has passed again."
ph33r my rod: "... Oh." *frowns* "Maybe you just have some sort of stomach bug, or something..."
Omega19x: "... My... my stomach's doing something... I... I think I even had... had heartburn from... from dinner..."
Omega19x: *sits gently on the edge of Malik's bed*
ph33r my rod: *sits down next to him, gently patting his back* "Huh... that's weird."
Omega19x: "... I know..."
Omega19x: "... I guess if it's not one thing, it's another..."
ph33r my rod: "Maybe it'll pass soon."
Omega19x: "I hope so."
Omega19x: "For the past few days... I haven't been able to even eat breakfast until... like almost three in the afternoon..."
ph33r my rod: "Huh... give it a few more days, and if it doesn't clear up, then maybe you should see a doctor..."
Omega19x: *weak nod*
ph33r my rod: "That's really weird how it's only in the morning, though. Maybe it's 'cause you were laying down for so long, or something."
Omega19x: "... It... it never did that before..."
Omega19x: "... And... and Zahra isn't helping things... by trying to pounce on my tummy in the morning."
ph33r my rod: *winces* "I doubt she knows any better, but yeah, ow."
Omega19x: "... she's definitely gotten more playful." *weak smile*
Omega19x: "I wish I felt up to playing with her..."
ph33r my rod: *wraps his arms around Ryou, resting his chin on his shoulder* "You just haven't felt well enough, huh...?"
Omega19x: "... I did for a while... kind of... not... not right now, I don't..."
ph33r my rod: "Did you try taking some medicine for it? We've got that stomach stuff..."
Omega19x: *weak nod* "... it didn't help."
Omega19x: "... but thanks anyway."
ph33r my rod: *pouts* "I'm sorry you're feeling bad..."
Omega19x: "... compared to what I've been through... this... this isn't so bad... Maybe I... I got another parasitic infection somewhere... I don't know..."
ph33r my rod: *blink* "Where would you have picked one up?"
Omega19x: "I haven't been out of the country recently, though... that's just it."
Omega19x: "... I don't know where I could have picked anything up..."
ph33r my rod: "Could be anywhere, really."
Omega19x: *sigh* "... knowing me... yes."
Omega19x: *but smiles* "... but everything will be all right in the end."
Omega19x: "This'll probably pass in a day or so... right?"
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Of course it will. It's always okay."
Omega19x: "... You haven't had any more bad dreams lately, have you?"
ph33r my rod: "..." *hesitates* "Not really, no."
Omega19x: "That's good. Me neither."
Omega19x: *smiles* "... and I guess enough people complained to the neighbors about that light... I... I haven't seen it on since."
ph33r my rod: "Well. That's good." *grins* "One problem down, huh?"
Omega19x: *smiles* "you could say that."
ph33r my rod: "Now if only we knew what was going on there..." *gently places his hand on Ryou's stomach* "...then all would be well."
Omega19x: *weak nod*
Omega19x: "... yes... th..then all would be well."
ph33r my rod: "Well... when we get rid of the problem, that is."
Omega19x: "of course..."
Omega19x: (*gulp* Ryou doesn't feel any bigger to Malik, does he?)
ph33r my rod: (( Not yet, no. XD ))
Omega19x: (*phew*)
Omega19x: (no need for Ryou to be even more self-conscious.)
ph33r my rod: (( Nope. ;; ))
Omega19x: "... hopefully... this is nothing... serious, right?"
Omega19x: *looks up at Malik*
ph33r my rod: *nods* "Hopefully. Like I said, it may be just some bug going around or something."
Omega19x: "You're not feeling sick, are you?"
ph33r my rod: "No, not at all..."
Omega19x: "If it is... at least you don't have it, then..."
Omega19x: *rubs his tummy* "... trust me, you'd know."
ph33r my rod: *pouts and pecks his cheek* "I wish I could help."
Omega19x: "... you do a fine job..."
ph33r my rod: "All I can really do is try to distract you from it."
Omega19x: "... You... you want to show me... how well you can walk without the crutch? That... that can be distracting..."
ph33r my rod: *nods* "... Alright."
Omega19x: *weak smile*
ph33r my rod: *slowly stands up*
ph33r my rod: *walks over to the door seperating his room from the bathroom, is trying not to limp but obviously is*
Omega19x: *watches, cheering Malik on*
Omega19x: "Good job!"
ph33r my rod: *walks back over to the bed, grins*
Omega19x: *holds his hands out for Malik* "that's a very good job."
ph33r my rod: *takes his hands* "Doing all of those exercises really paid off..."
Omega19x: "they always do."
Omega19x: *smiles* "... you walked great!"
ph33r my rod: *climbs back up on the bed, laying down* "I can't wait until I stop limping, though. Then people won't be giving me nicknames."
Omega19x: "... Don't listen to Mokuba."
Omega19x: "he's just mean."
ph33r my rod: *nods and pouts* "He doesn't know when to quit, either."
Omega19x: "... no. He really doesn't."
Omega19x: "But I still love you, even if you do limp."
Omega19x: (I sooo almost accidently typed 'are limp')
ph33r my rod: (( *dies* ))
ph33r my rod: *smiles* "I'm still me, even if I have a limp."
Omega19x: "... you... you helped me walk... I... I will help you."
ph33r my rod: *gently kisses his hand* "...thanks."
Omega19x: *blushes a little* "... it's the least I can do."
Omega19x: (I should get ready to go to bed.)
ph33r my rod: (( Kay, night~ ))
