Despite the difficulty leaving that place because of the heavy rain and strong wind and the path being sleepery and dark.Raven try to walk carefully but fast worried to the man on his back.
"Hang on there Al..we're almost there.."Raven said after awhile when he manage to go back to the old trail path.And after a couple more minutes he saw his car and the motorbike ahead.He quickly open the passenger door at put Allen down.
"Hey!..Al let's change your clothes..ok?.." Fortunately Raven bring extra clothes.And buy some food and drinks on convenient store before he drive there.Changing Allen to his sweatshirt and sweatpants is difficult because the place is cramp and Allen being unconscious.After changing Allen's wet clothes Raven drive them out of the place.But not before he hide the motorbike to thick bushes a little bit away from the highway.
Raven drive them to the nearest Inn he spot on the way there.Though the place is old and like on the horror movies style Inn with so many vines crawling outside the wall of the Inn.Inside the Inn has a homey vibe.With the old couple on reception area smiling.There is only one room available that Raven took without hesitation knowing they can't stay on the car with a heavy rain and strong wind outside.
" Can you please bring me a medicine for fever and hot soup?.."Raven ask the Old man who show him there room.After they enter inside the room and put Allen down to the only double single bed inside.
The old man nod at him before he leave.
After the old man leave Raven look around the room.Despite the Inn looking old the room is quite clean and smell fresh.And the room is simple with only one double single bed in the middle a table and chair near the bed in the side corner with one small couch good for two person to sit beside the window and a 30 inch tv in front of the bed.The en suite bathroom is on the other side of the bed.Raven put a small towel on Allen's forehead after finding one on the bathroom.
Raven already change his wet clothes with kaki short and a long sleeve white shirt that he also bring with him together with the sweatpants and shirt that Allen is wearing.
When the food and medicine brought to him with a young man not far from there age,maybe helper of the two Old couple or there son he try to wake Allen.
"Hey.. Al eat this first so you can drink medicine.."
"Hmmmm..."
"Here I'll help you.."
Lifting Allen up and putting a pillow to support his back Raven help Allen to eat.
" I'll do it.." taking the spoon from Raven Allen try to spoon some soup but his hand are shaking.
"Let me do it.."Raven said before taking back the spoon.
Allen sigh and let Raven spoon feed him.When he finish his soup and drink the medicine only then he notice his clothes.
"Did you change my clothes?.."
"Hmm..yes who else?..do you feel better now?.."Raven ask after fixing the use utensil on the table.When he heard nothing from Allen he look at him and found him looking at his clothes with a visible red hue in his cheek.
"Are you shy?...awww..cute!.."Raven couldn't help but cooing the embarrass Allen.
" Shut up!.."turning his back to Raven Allen can't help to feel more embarrass that makes even his ear to turn red.
Raven chuckled by his reaction.
"well I'll take that as your feeling much better now..But you still need to rest more so go back to sleep.."
"I'm fine.."without looking at Raven,Allen said.
"Hmmm...?"
Raven walk around the bed where Allen is facing and cup Allen face with both his palm.
He press his forehead to Allen's forehead before he hum.
"Your still burning go back to sleep and I will wake you up again later to drink your med."Raven said after composing his self and setting on the the couch.Like he did nothing unusual.
Allen taken aback by his action freeze on the bed.And watch Raven move like he grow two head.
Feeling the stare Raven look at Allen with a confused look.
" What?.."
"Tsk!annoying!.."Allen said covering his whole body with duvet until to the tip of his head.Feeling his face burn in embarrassment and feeling abnormalities on his chest.
Raven mouth drop open with his eyes open wide by Allen sudden action 'what did I do now?.'feeling confuse leaving him to only scratch his nape.
In the meddle of the night Raven wake Allen again to drink his med. after giving him some cookies that he brought with them and giving him some bottle juice.He keep changing the towel on Allen's forehead until his fever go down.Its four in the morning when he finally relax when he finally feel Allen's fever subsided.He slept on the couch though uncomfortable he succumb from exhaustion and lack of sleep.When he woke up,he notice the time on the wall clock above the tv.Its say's quarter to ten in the morning.He stretch his body to wake his sleeping muscle only then he notice that his not sleeping on the couch anymore but on the bed.
He quickly look for Allen beside him but found it empty.
