I didn’t use magic today so what’s the big deal?

Logan put the pan on the left burner, turning the stove off before walking towards me.

"You okay?"

"Hmm? I'm really tired and my vision sucks," I complained.

Logan frowned, lifting his hand up to press against my forehead.

"You're really warm. I think you're coming down with a fever. Did you take your seizure medicine?"

"Ya. Alice forced me to before she went out." I sighed, wondering if I should go back to bed and rest.

I didn't have an appetite and my sore muscles and blurry vision weren’t making me feel any better.

Logan embraced me and I sank into his warmth, wishing he'd come up with me and take a nap with me.

As if reading my thoughts, Logan asked,"You want to nap?"

"Yes, but not alone," I confessed.

"Okay, we can go sleep,” he whispered and I nodded into his shirt. He stroked my hair as we stood in each other's arms.

"Jewel's awake?" Brax's voice questioned.

I slowly looked over my shoulder to see the others standing in the doorway. They took a good look at me and all wore different expressions of worry.

"Jewel looks like she survived a war," Kage said quietly, walking up to me.

I pulled out of Logan's hug to squint at Kage.

"I do not."

"Let me get her glasses," Brax announced, leaving the room and heading upstairs.

"Jewel you're a little pale. Maybe you should go back to bed?" Maximus suggested, as he came to stand next to Kage who hugged me.

"I'm going to take a nap soon," I confessed.

Kage released me and Maximus took his turn to hug me.

I moved to Nixon who rubbed my back.

"Is Logan gonna be your napping buddy for today?"

I smiled "Yes, but you can join too," I whispered.

"I'll kick him off the bed. He's a blanket hogger," Logan argued.

Kage and Maximus chuckled.

"That's not too bad." Maximus pointed out.

Brax returned as I pulled out of Nixon's hug.

"Here Jewel." Brax slid the specs onto my face and I gave him a relieved smile.

"Thanks."
