He scowled, answering the call with a furrowed brow, "I've got an emergency, won't make it back to the office... What do you mean, thepany will collapse without me?... I've already told you I can't make it, are you deaf?" Felicity was justing around when she caught the tail end of his rant. She wasn't surprised in the least.
Truth be told, Calvin wasn't known for his patience. He simply chose to show a more playful side around her.
Trying to shift her position, Felicity attempted to sit up, her movements sluggish.
From one moment to the next, Calvin's voice switched from raging storm to soothing calm, "You're awake? Lethelp you." "Thirsty," she managed to croak out, her throat feeling like she had swallowed a piece of coarse sandpaper.
"I'll get you swarm water. Don't move," he said, quickly moving to fetch a cup.
After a sip, her throat felt a tad better, but not by much.
She hadn't anticipated the illness hitting her this hard, assuming it was just a regular cold...

But then, a shadow loomed ahead- Calvin looked up, startled.
"What's wrong with her?" Miles hadn't expected to rush over only to be greeted by this scene: Felicity, cradled in Calvin's arms, a frown creasing her brow even in sleep, clearly not resting easy.
"She's sick," Calvin said coldly, shifting to block Miles' attempt to take her. "Step aside." His demeanor was far from the friendly banter back in Eldorria City, verging on hostile towards Miles, who was, admittedly, a few years his junior and a rival in love.
