[Mick sits up and takes the pills and drinks the water. It takes a minute, he has to sip it because sitting up makes him feel a little more dizzy. His entire body is starting to hurt but he doesn't say anything just yet. He still thinks it's nothing serious]
Go back to sleep. One of us will check on you in a few minutes. [Bucky brushes his lips across his forehead and takes the time to gently tuck Mick into bed.
Then he's off to reassure Diana and keep watch for the night.]
[Mick curls into the bed trying to go to sleep. His body is still trembling slightly and his fever still high in spite of the medicine. Several hours later he wakes with the need to use the bathroom. Even though he feels weak as a newborn kitten he doesn't call for assistance. Instead he tries to get up himself and make it to the bathroom. Only..he doesn't actually get there. He manages about halfway across the room before he simply slumps weakly too the floor and just lays there, body too drained and exhausted to do much more than sink to the floor like a pile of cooked spaghetti.]
Help? [His tone is one more of confusion than fear or pain. He's not quite sure what's going on, he knows he can't really move and all, but he doesn't have enough wits about himself to be overly concerned and panicked about it either.]
[The voices over him are a mix of Mick's wife and Bucky, quick and clipped directions before Bucky is lifting him in his arms and directing Diana to run ahead of them and alert the hospital.]
[Mick doesn't fight when he's picked up. He is confused though. Why is everyone so upset? It's just a little fever...a little flu. He'll be fine by morning for sure. He knows it.]
Gotta take a piss. [He mumbles but of course they're halfway to the hospital now. Might as well wait until they're there.]
Yeah you can wait until we're at the hospital. [Bucky pours on the speed and Mick is on a gurney in moments, being rushed in.
Intake is quick, Mick is prepped and vitals taken. An IV is started for fluids and discussions are had about using the cooling rooms set aside for overheated speedsters to being down his fever.]
[His temperature is high and he's fairly dehydrated, but other than that his vitals seem stable. Mick is allowed a little privacy to relieve himself, though he's not allowed to stand up to do so. Still, he feels awful enough to not really care all that much about it. He is also really glad Bucky and Diana cannot get whatever he has. But then...fuck...the baby. Wide, slightly delirious eyes find Bucky's.]
[Mick slowly falls into a light sleep but he's too cold and everything hurts too much for him to really be able to rest and of course, he's too stubborn to complain about it.]
