"Are you alright?" They had been eating supper when Zylvia had swiftly left the table and ran from the room, prompting her husband to follow her and ask this question .
Kaldrek had found his wife leaning against the wall, her head pushed against her arm . She had heard him and said that she was fine, even though she definitely did not look it .
He leaned beside of her and taking her by the arm pulled her gently against him . He decked a kiss on the top of her head and then tilted her head up to face him . "Are you sure you are okay? Because, Zylv, you do not look okay . "
Her face was pale and she looked slightly sick . But she leaned into him and shook her head, "I'm fine . Just a little sick to my stomach . But I'll be fine . "
Advertisement"Do you know what happened?" Kaldrek gently brushed some hair from her face .
She bit her lip, and her eyes met his . They were bright and clear, making him acknowledge that she was indeed fine, "Just the smell of the food made my stomach turn . But I am sure I'll be fine . Thank you for checking up on me . "
"Of course . Is your stomach still upset? Do you want to finish supper? Would you rather lie down? Or-?"
"Lying down sounds wonderful right now . " His wife leaned forward and kissed him gently before walking to their bedroom .
Kaldrek accompanied her and hovered worriedly by her . Zylvia did not usually get sick, especially to her stomach . He was worried that this was a bigger deal than she was letting on .
She propped their pillow up and leaned against it, "You should go finish eating…I'll be fine . "
"Nu-uh . " Kaldrek shook his head and climbed up beside her, "No way . I am not leaving my precious lady when she is not feeling well . "
"But –"
"I am not hungry anyway . " He assured her and stroked her hair, "So no buts . "
She let out a sigh, and leaned against his shoulder, "Alright . If you insist…"
Her words trailed off and she closed her eyes . He felt her squirming as she tried to find a more comfortable position . He pulled her on top of him and let her use his body to conform to . She relaxed and her lips curled up in a smile .
"Hey Kaldrek?" She murmured from where her head was buried in his chest .
"Mm?" He was continuously stroking her hair and back, trying to do whatever he could to help her .
"I love you . " He felt his wife's nose touch his neck and rub gently against him . "And I already am feeling better . "
"Thar's good," He kept his arms around, feeling comfortable . He felt drowsy and realized that he was about to fall asleep on her . He turned his head and began placing kisses on her face and top of her head . "I love you too, Zylv . You're my world . "
He peeked at her now blushing face and smiled to himself . He loved the fact that he could make his wife blush so easily . She looked absolutely adorable with her cheeks so red . She laughed softly and borrowed deeper into his arms .
Kaldrek focused on his wife's breathing, on the soft tickle of her breath against his lower neck . He absolutely loved this woman . She really did mean the world to him and he would gladly spend his whole life proving it to her .
His eyes closed and he lowered his arm so he was holding her waist more snugly . Her soft breathing had a relaxing effect on his tired body and he found himself swiftly slipping into unconsciousness .
He was a bit worried about falling asleep on her, but knew that if she needed him then she could easily wake him up . Kaldrek had never been the deepest of sleepers .
