“Eeeh?! (Y/n)-kun is sick today?” Tohru gasped while Yuki nodded. 

“It seems as if she stayed out too late yesterday night.” Yuki sighed, how clumsy could you simply get by staying out until late dark without a jacket? 

You were a bit overconfident when you decided to stay late at night with Machi to watch a Mogeta movie. You had been out shopping for the entire day and by the end of it, you both spotted a movie theater that was still open. Everything wasn't planned out perfectly, but that was just how Machi liked it to be, something that was spurts of interest rather than an organized meeting. Although Machi insisted that you go home to sleep for school, you told her that it was fine and that Machi looked really excited when she saw the poster for Mogeta. She felt guilty when you began to sneeze and shiver once you had left the movie theaters. Could you really say you regretted it when Machi's eyes sparkled? You would be a fool to take the road home. 

Yuki sighed, this was the explanation you gave to him. You were apologizing profusely for having Yuki carry around your committee work but he simply dismissed it off, telling you that it was fine and he would be visiting your home later to deliver your homework. 

“T-That’s terrible! I-I can bring over food for her!” Tohru suggested, bringing up different types of food she could make to help you recover faster. 

Yuki shook his head, “it’s okay Honda-san, I’m going over to her house to give her the homework assignments. You should stay home, I don’t think (L/n)-san would want you to get sick either.”

“O-Oh! You’re right! Then, tell (Y/n)-kun that I hope she gets well!” 

He smiled before stacking your paperwork on top of his. He only needed to sit through one school day and he would be able to see you after. 

You sneezed and wiped your nose with a tissue, throwing it across the room and narrowly missing the trashcan by a few centimeters. You opened your small container of hand sanitizer and wiped it across your skin, the cold feeling spreading across your warm body as you laid back down in bed. 

This day sucked. 

You groaned as your eyes slowly fluttered shut, the need to sleep was beginning to take over your body. Your head was throbbing with pain as if someone was knocking on your head like a door, or a wood chipper bird piercing through a tree trunk. Before you could drift off completely you heard the sound of your doorbell ringing.

'Who could be at my house at this time?' You thought, completely forgetting the fact that you were actually supposed to have a guest over. You yawned and stood up from your bed, wobbling slightly as you walked towards the door, your hands touching the wall for support. You opened the door and cracked your eyes open slightly, seeing Yuki in front of your house with stacks of papers. 

‘Her apartment. . . It smells even more like (L/n)-san!’ He thought, seeing your body sway side to side as you tried to rub your sleepiness away from your eyes. 

You internally cried on the inside at the number of work he carried in his arms but opened the door for him to come inside, “. . . Good morning. . .” 

Yuki nervously chuckled as he took off his shoes, “it’s already the afternoon (L/n)-san, why don’t you go back to bed?” 

“. . . Lazy.” 

���You’re lazy?” 

You slowly nodded as you zombie-walked over to your table and slammed your head down, the throbbing pain of the impact was nothing compared to the unbearable heat and sickness you felt. The cold feeling of the wood soothed your stinging and burning forehead as Yuki quickly ran over to your side, almost tripping on some of the loose items on the floor. 

“A-Ah are you okay?!” You gave Yuki no response as you quietly laid your head on the table, feeling tired yet hungry. 

Yuki could hear your stomach growl loudly from the other side of the room, “did you eat anything today?” He asked. 

You shook your head no, your forehead rubbing against the wooden material as you continued to lay your head there. Yuki smiled before opening your fridge, noticing that there wasn’t much other than vegetables and leftover chicken. He sweatdropped at the realization that he would have to cook something for you. Perhaps he should have taken up Tohru’s offer of having her cook for you, but he shook his head. It was already too late to call over Tohru for something as small as this. 

“Are you okay with eating porridge (L/n)-san?” You pressed your cheek against the table, your eyes watching as Yuki searched through your cabinets for a pot. Although your room was messy, you actually kept your kitchen quite clean and tidy. 

“. . . Okay.” You replied, your eyes slowly closing and opening every few seconds as you tried to stay awake. 

He wrapped your apron around his body, tying a knot behind his back to secure the material. Yuki nervously began to cut the vegetables as you stared at him from a distance. He certainly wasn’t the best at cooking and it was making him feel anxious when you are staring at him, but he reminds himself that you might be dozing off in your half-asleep form. He heard you shuffle in your seat as you moved your arm to rest underneath your head, serving as a pillow while you waited for Yuki to be done. He smiled at you before returning to finish the porridge. 

Although he has been at your house for quite some time, it still surprises him to see that you have nothing on your apartment walls. There were no photographs, no sticky notes, there was simply nothing hung up on the walls. You didn’t have any photos for your contacts either. He wonders if you ever took a photo of yourself that you actually kept. 

He pressed his lips together as he covers the lid of the pot for the rest of the food to finish cooking. He turned around to face you, you had already fallen asleep while waiting for him. He carefully walked over to you to brush away the strands that were covering your face, revealing your peacefully sleeping form. He could hear you mumble something in your sleep but it was too quiet for him to catch with his ears. 

He noticed that on your desk was a sheet of paper on top of all of your stacked books as well as the two erasers that looked newly bought. He peered over the top of the desk to see that it was the drawing he and you created when you first sat together for lunch. He reached out to pick up the paper with his pale fingers, admiring the pencil strokes and memories that were carved into thin sheets of a former tree. The image was well preserved, the strokes were not smudged and it looked the same as when you first drew it. The rat leaning up against the eagle on the trees as they peacefully slept together, his side of the drawing was messy compared to yours but you still kept it there either way. There weren’t many creases in the paper other than the one that was on the left side. He pressed his fingertips against the paper, staring at it while you slept on the table. 

There was a lot that he didn't know about you. 

You had no family background, no photographs in your house, nothing on your phone aside from the basic apps that were preinstalled. There was nothing about you that connected you to anyone else. You were a solo animal striving for something you couldn't see. You depended on only yourself. You had no one to pull you up from this darkness.

He wonders how the eagle would take away his burdens. Was it truly possible to rid someone else of their problems when you couldn't help yourself? The kindness Tohru showed him made him realize that perhaps there is a light in this world, her smile makes his day much brighter than it was before. However, your presence was an enigma, you made him feel as if there truly was someone else in the world who understood the same pain he felt. He doesn't understand why he feels this way to you but he does anyway.  

He wants to rid you of your pain as well. 

He moves up from his position, leaving the paper on top of your books to finish the porridge that finished cooking. He tasted it with the small saucer that was stacked neatly on your counter. It tasted slightly bland to him but it was the best he could do at this moment, he wasn't the best cook in the world but he wouldn't consider him to be the worst either. Yuki quietly sets up the food in front of you before hesitatingly shaking you awake. 

"(L/n)-san, wake up, it's time for you to eat." You groaned and slowly opened your eyes again to see Yuki in front of you. 

You could smell the porridge and you began to rub your eyes, your vision adjusting to the scene. A small, cute yawn came out of your mouth as you picked up the spoon and stared at the food. Some of the pieces of vegetables were cut unevenly and strange, the porridge itself didn't look too bad though. You took a spoonful of the porridge and began eating it, your mind still tired. Yuki thought that your lack of silence meant that it didn't taste good, which made him feel slightly concerned on the inside. 

”Does it taste okay. . .?” He asked, nervously fidgeting with the edges of his clothes as he watched you continue eating. 

”. . . Mmhm. . . I can’t taste anything.” You frowned as you stared at the food in confusion. You held the spoon upside down to your tongue, still trying to figure out if you were actually tasting the food or the spoon. There wasn't much flavor and some parts of it were undercooked but it wasn't completely bad. Even in your tired, half-asleep form, you still knew that Yuki had put a lot of effort into making you something despite having the chance to just order take out. 

”Is that you telling me that my cooking sucks or it’s because you’re sick?” He sweatdropped. 

You hummed, ”. . . Both?" Yuki felt a comedic arrow stab at his heart, this was hard coming from one of the top students in Home Economics. 

You picked up another spoonful of the porridge and brought it to your lips for another bite, "But. . . Sohma-san made it for me so. . . It still special to me.” 

His cheeks began to feel hot as he watched you continue eating it. He knew he wasn’t the best, it was undercooked and messy, it didn’t even taste that good, it was imperfect and yet. . .  it still was enough for you. You ate it as if it was the best meal that someone had presented to you, your smile still on your face as you were halfway finished with the food. You had this strange effect on him that neither of you even realized. 

You were starting to feel tired after eating, your stomach feeling satisfied as you set the spoon down and leaned back, feeling the plush material of your comforter on your back as you began to feel sleepy. Yuki stifled his laughter at the sight of you so tired. 

“(L/n)-san, you should get up so you can lay down in bed.” He shuffled over to your side and brushed back your hair, wiping at the stray pieces of rice that stuck to the edges of your lips with his handkerchief, “come on.” 

“. . . Okay.”

You hummed before slowly crawling into bed, listening to his soft voice as you dropped your head onto the pillows. Yuki pressed the back of his hand to your forehead, your temperature was slowly rising and he was beginning to worry. One moment he turned around to look back at the kitchen for a nearby towel, you had already fallen back asleep despite eating just minutes earlier. He sighed before quickly walking to the counter and running a towel underwater, he squeezed the remaining water out of it. He folded it into a rectangle before placing it on your forehead. 

You must have been really tired from yesterday, he thought. If you were this sleepy when you got sick, he couldn’t imagine how you would last the entire day without eating or taking proper care of yourself.

”You shouldn’t have gone out so late without a jacket.” He scolded pressing his cold fingers against your hot cheeks. 

”. . . Sorry. . .” You apologized weakly like a small child.

”It’s okay, wear a jacket next time.” Yuki rubbed the top of your head as you hummed. 

His cheeks still felt warm as he watched you fall asleep for what seems like the third or fourth time already. He turned to look down at his phone, seeing that it was starting to get late. As much as he knows that he should go home, it doesn’t extinguish his worry about you. 

What if you fell off of your bed? Or what if your temperature got worse? What if you need help getting water for your throat? There was too much that was worrying Yuki that he was starting to internally panic at the different things that may go wrong. He sighed before standing up to get a drink of water, but your hand reached out to grab onto his. He yelped as he felt you tug on him with enough force to bring his face closer to him. 

'Was she always this strong?' He thought, his face beginning to burn a hot color as he felt your warm breath against his lips. Instead of waking up, you stayed unmoving in your bed, still asleep as you held onto him. He fears that you may give him a heart attack, or worse he would transform back into his rat form. He quickly pulled his face away from you, but your hand was the only thing keeping him from completely separating himself from you. 

“. . . Don’t. . . Leave me.” You mumbled, stirring in your sleep as you held onto his hand, “. . . Please stay.” 

His eyes widened as you intertwined your fingers with his, bringing it close to you. He slowly caressed your cheek with his fingers, watching as your eyes began to drip with small strings of tears. You flinched in response, the flow of water continuing to flow down your cheeks and onto the tips of his pale fingers. 

“. . . Stay. Please. . . Don’t leave.”

He gave you a small, saddened smile, “I’m not leaving (L/n)-san.” He leaned his head on the blankets that covered your stomach, watching as your breathing began to slow down, your body relaxing slightly as he felt your fingertips rub against his palm. 

How many times have you cried in your sleep? How many times have you been left behind? Did you cry like this when you slept at his house? He wants to know. He wants to know so desperately to cure the ache in his heart. You sniffled as he continued to wipe away at your tears. What sort of pain have you been through? How badly broken was your heart that you had to hide everything away? 

Will you ever tell him?

He felt his eyes close as he began to drift off into sleep, the warmth of your cheeks still brushing against his skin. His phone may have rung and buzzed several times, but neither of you paid attention to the noise. There was only one thing the two of you did feel. 

It was the presence of someone else by your side as you were at your most vulnerable.

Pets, however, can go practically anywhere– it’s encouraged, actually! Amazing Whip as well as Hercules have already seen this national forest two times and also can not wait to go back. How Was The Petrified Forest Created? Regarding 225 million years back, this location was a rainforest with

dinosaurs, brushes, and huge trees– all points Herc would certainly have enjoyed to smell! As the trees dropped, they were buried in river sediment

and absorbed various minerals. These minerals triggered the timber to take shape right into quartz in a range of colors. Which’s exactly how the petrified timber you’ll see throughout the park was created. What Can You Do With Dogs at Petrified Forest National Park? Scared Forest National Park straddles the I-40 Interstate in eastern Arizona, making it conveniently available. And the $ 20-per-car entrance fee obtains you accessibility to the park for

7 days. There are site visitor center/museums situated on both ends of the park. And, while pet dogs are not allowed the buildings, they can go on all the routes as well as in the backcountry, as long as they’re leashed. You can even come by a site visitor center to take part in the Bark Ranger program. You’ll

obtain a reward for your canine, guidelines for family pet

expeditions, as well as details on how to share your pet’s pictures with the park– they actually do enjoy pet dogs! FOUND OUT MORE ⇒ Other National Parks With BARK Ranger Programs For the classic experience, strategy to begin your visit by driving the 28-mile roadway going through the park. Amazing Whip and also Herc very suggest stopping at each trail as well as forget to take full advantage of the smelling possibilities.

The 7 assigned walks have different sizes:

Agate House: 2 miles

Long Logs: 1.6 mile

Gigantic Logs: 0.4 mile

Crystal Forest:.75 mile

Blue Mesa: 1 mile

Puerco Pueblo: 0.3 mile

Painted Desert Rim Trail: 1 mile

Do Not Miss Our Favorites

The southern end of the park holds the best focus of scared timber. Herc enjoys the Long Logs and also Giant Logs routes where he can sniff several of those old trees. The image listed below shows us beside a medium-sized scared visit the backcountry. (I am 5’4 ″ and also the pet dogs are both 70 pounds.)

Blue Mesa is Cool Whip’s favored path. We finally located a landscape where she’s masked! The path is led but really high down right into the valley, so it’s except everyone.

However, there are

excellent neglects on the top if you’re not able to pass through up and down the hill. Rim Trail The northern end of Petrified Forest National Park belongs to the Painted Desert, and also an area you will not want to miss with your pet dogs. This stunning collection of mesas, buttes, and also badland hills flaunt a broad spectrum shades depending upon the numerous sedimentary layers. The Rim Trail provides great sights of the desert as it complies with the side of the neglecting high cliff. Additionally along the side is the Painted Desert Inn

, which has actually been developed into a museum and also is identified as a national landmark. Behind the Inn is where you’ll locate the steep route that switchbacks down the high cliff into the valley as well as brings about the majority of the backcountry. Trendy Whip as well as Herc liked racing up and down capitals. They were much less satisfied when I made them pick up a picture.

Exploring the Backcountry You can select to day-hike in the backcountry or do an over night backpacking journey, which is the only way to spend a night in the park. While several parks have a marked path system in the backcountry, Petrified Forest National Park only has “suggested” courses.

Onyx Bridge: 4 miles

Red Basin: 8.5 miles

First Forest Point: 2.1 miles

For backpacking, you’ll need to acquire an authorization from either the Rainbow Forest Museum (south end) or the Painted Desert Visitor Center (north end).
