Aria slept for a while. When she woke up, she didn't really want to move. Honestly, she couldn't move. Her legs were getting so sore, and she hated sitting up-right. Aria looked out the window and saw Sage playing with Caroline. She wanted to be with them so badly, it was painful to think about being pregnant.

Sage played with Caroline until she grew tired around her nap time. He then picked her up and washed her off, and gave her a small snack and then carried her down to her room. When she fell asleep in his arms on the way over, he smiled softly and got her all tucked in her bed and then went back to their room. He noticed aria up, but she looked awful and his smile instantly vanished. How could he have forgotten she felt so bad? He suddenly felt very guilty, and worried, and he rushed over to her bedside, fretting over her. "Do you feel alright? Did you take your medicine," he asked.

Aria watched Sage bring Caroline in for nap time. She waited in bed until Sage rushed in and started worrying about her. "I'm okay. And no, I haven't taken my medicine yet." The girl said, answering all of his frantic questions.

Sage frowned slightly when she said she was ok, and put his hand to her forehead, feeling for a fever, and was relieved to find nothing there. "Why don't you take it....you look awful," he told her.

Aria huffed out a breath of air. "Sage... i'm fine." She said. The girl grabbed the pill bottle and took her medicine. "I'm hungry." Aria whispered. It was almost dinner time anyways.

Sage tried to calm down, not wanting her to get mad at him for bugging her. She took her medicine though, which he took as a good sign. He nodded softly and placed a kiss on her temple before heading to the door. "I'll get you something," he promised.

Aria smiled softly when Sage kissed her. She wanted to kiss him back so badly, she just didn't have the energy to even move around. The girl nodded when Sage promised to grab her some food.

Sage went and got her some food and, of course, her favorite smoothie alongside some water. He grabbed some snacks and fruit to keep in their room for her too, since she'd seemed tired and weak, and he didn't want to make her get up or anything. He came back in and gave her what she wanted and made sure she was comfortable before curling up next to her. He wasn't very hungry...he was too worried about taking care of her.

Aria smiled when Sage came back in. "Thank you." She whispered, glad he was happy to help her out. "I love you." The girl said softly. She drank her smoothie, her favorite as always. Aria didn't want Sage doing all this extra work for her. She looked over, and smiled down at the boy all curled up next to her.

Sage smiled back at the girl. "You're welcome," he whispered. Then he frowned. 'am I being too much," he asked. "I'm not used to taking care of people....or being taken care of. Or... actually, I still have no idea what I'm doing being a husband or father or Kong or..." He trailed off with a sigh. He couldn't explain....words didn't work for this. But he was still stuffing to understand peace and love.
