NXX Boys with a Sick Significant Other: Part 2

Tears of Themis: Artem Wing x Rosa (MC) Reader

Word Count: 1,196 Words

Your head was spinning, and your face was unbearably hot. It didn't matter, because there was still so much to complete. Papers had to be signed, strategies had to be made; clients are waiting for a lawyer who could defend them, clear them of guilt, possibly even save their lives—

"Rosa?"

"Hm? Oh! Yes! I'm sorry for the trouble, I'll be sure to work double-time, I'm aware of my responsibilities as a partner—"

"I was going to ask if you wanted a break."

"A—a break, huh... well, th—th—there's work I still have to do, it's getting late, you should relax, I'll take care of it!" You chuckled awkwardly.

"You're not normally like this, Rosa. Your face is flushed."

Your eyes widened. How embarrassing! Blushing in front of your work partner: quick, think of an excuse!

“Well, it is quite hot, so…”

“Hot? Are you alright?”

Immediately, Artem dropped his pen and reached to touch your face. “You’re so hot. I mean, as in, temperature-wise.” His face became nearly as flushed as yours.

“Artem, I’m fine, I can still work—”

Before you could protest, he was leading you to his bedroom. He did it so quickly that you couldn't keep up, but he took careful attention to every move you made. He was like a robot, carefully scanning every body part. Rosa. Consciousness: Stable. Target Acquired: Book. Clear Obstruction from Stairs Immediately.

While in bed, you were still worried. You really wanted to continue working, but this guy, who should be supportive of your hard work, was preventing you from it! You were this close to getting out of bed, storming down the stairs, and yelling into his face about how important your clients are—

“I brought you some things.”

You looked at him. He was so cute. Nevermind.

His tie was out, and he was holding a tray of several things that could topple any second. It was messy, but you could feel from your side of the room how hard he worked to make it for you. It wasn’t much, heck, it was more than much, and it was also honest work. How good was that?

He sat down at your side and made you sit too. He placed down the tray, and you expected him to start the care session by giving an entire opening statement on the Benefits Of Everything He Had On The Tray. In the end, it was similar to a speech, but came from his warm heart and not his sharp mind.

“Rosa, I’m your partner. You can always tell me if you’re tired, or sick, or if you can’t take the work anymore. And I’m not only your work partner either. We’re romantic partners, too. You can hug and kiss and need me whenever you want.” For a bit, it was as if he was just a coworker to you. You were so focused on work that you forgot that the two of you were finally dating, and even tried to cover your blush…

“Artem, I wasn’t! Well, I was tired and sick, but I wanted to keep working. You told me that a lawyer dreams of a world where they are no longer needed. And I’m striving for that. I want to be able to help my clients  because people are crying and dying—”

“Do you think you’ll be able to help them when you’re tired and sick? If you fail to take care of yourself, who will take care of them? Before focusing on the lives of everyone in the world, focus on yourself, because that one life is the only life that you'll be able to use to help."

His voice was already raised slightly, but you were not scared. He only ever raised his voice when he was concerned. Your plan to rage at him was suddenly the stupidest thing you'd ever heard of. I guess one of the consequences of being tired and sick is extreme moodiness.

"I'll check your temperature. I also have a towel bath, some medicine, warm soup, water, and tissues. Oh, and some books. Non-law related, of course." After inserting an old-style thermometer in your mouth, he asked, "What other things do you want to do to pass the time?"

"Chuuess?" It was hard for you to speak. He laughed, no: giggled, took out the thermometer and inserted a modern one in between your armpits. "I'll fetch my chess set."

You and Artem read together and played chess. Of course, he still struggled to keep up with the ridiculous chess rules you made on-the-dot just so you could win. He didn't go easy on you, but with effort you won twice out of more than ten matches.

He knew that your sickness was probably contagious, so he didn't want to sleep beside you because it could infect him. You never saw him go to bed, or wake up, so you were never really sure on how long he slept for. But by the next day, you knew his sleep was just not enough.

You knocked on his office door, alongside your boss. No answer. Celestine knocked a second time, but harder. Still no reply. She looked at you, smirked and walked away. Seems it was your turn to find out what was happening inside of that office.

You slowly opened the door, and called out in a soft voice. "Artem?" 

You laughed at the irony. Here he was, falling asleep on his own desk while doing work.

You walked towards his desk and stopped down to his level. You kissed him once or twice on the cheek, and he woke up quickly. "Rosa?"

"Now, if you fail to take care of yourself, who will take care of me, hm?" It was fun to tease him every once in a while.

"Ah. Well—" His eyes flit to one book. It was slightly buried under different files. He was hiding something.

You reached for it quickly. There was no title on the cover. so you turned to the bookmark. Chapter 14: How to Take Care of Your Sick Girlfriend.

"Artem!" You laughed.

"I—ahem, Rosa, please don't talk about it!" He was so flustered, like a dense, senior attorney tsundere. His voice was surprisingly stern, which made it all the funnier.

"It's fine, you executed it really well anyways, I surely have a story to tell to Kiki later—"

Your sentence was cut off. He gently kissed you. Woah. The fact that he did this so suddenly, and in his office? It was enough to stun you.

"Please, Rosa, don't tell this to anyone." He wasn't a tsundere anymore now, just Artem feeling embarrassed after doing something so painstakingly attractive. He was still so cute, and the way his laugh and voice rang out gave you butterflies way after the crush phase.

"Alright. Next time, refer to this book only when I'm stubborn. You can always ask me what I want. Besides, communication is key!" You pecked him on the forehead.

Artem didn't reply. He was just amazed about how Rosa was able to recover so quickly. Well, uuunbeknownst to him, it was because of how good of a boyfriend he really was. 

A/N: Hello everyone! I apologize again for not posting in a while, I have been Unable To Write due to immenseeee schoolwork. We'll be having our final exams anytime soon, so I can't exactly promise that I'll post more.

It's been several days since @ollieisdumb requested this. Hello, Ollie! I hope that by now you've already recovered, but still feel free to read the rest of the series even though you don't exactly need it now, haha > <

Following my timezone, it's already very early morning of the 27th, but still HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARTEM WING!

Thank you for the support! I'm very glad to have several notes and followers, and that as I get more consistent with my posting, your positive feedback will also be consistent and increase eventually.

Having said that, I received a request from an Anon (if you're reading this, hello Anon! I'll make a separate post to reply to you directly later.). The request was The NXX Boys with an Assassin S/O. Specifically, an S/O similar to Yor Forger (Spy × Family), but more emotionless and ruthless. I plan to start this request after finishing the Luke and Marius parts of this series.

Thank you for reading, everyone! Have a nice day :)

PROTECTING YOU — A. WING

bodyguard! au with artem!

warnings: not thoroughly edited!<//3

notes: finished nge and squid game the same night i cannot mentally recover from this😕👎👎

bodyguard! artem who always insists on holding your umbrella during the rain, no matter how much taller or shorter you are than him. sometimes, it proves to be as hassle as you watch him trouble to stay under the umbrella himself since he’s keeping it at the perfect height to cover you. you always tell him that you can hold your own umbrella, so he could hold his and not have to risk getting wet but he never listens.

bodyguard! artem who respects your boundaries and stays an agreeable distance away from you and your friends in public but will have a heart attack and instantly call you when he loses sight of your group.

“artem, we’re in the washroom,” you say, annoyed. that was the fifth call this hour while you were just trying to have a nice outing with your friends. even so, you couldn’t blame him for being so concerned for your well being.

bodyguard! artem who instantly knows when you’ve had a bad day based on how your acting and will do whatever to cheer you up. he won’t outright ask you what’s wrong, but he’d hint at it and your bring favourite snack as a bargaining chip. if you choose to tell him, he’ll listen very intently and mentally make note of what or more importantly, who had made you feel bad. you will definitely catch him eyeing the person if he ever meets them.

though if you don’t feel comfortable telling him, he’ll just start bringing you little gifts in order to make you feel better. he considers it apart of his job as your bodyguard. the plushie you called cute as you peered into the store’s front window a few weeks ago? it would now be in your lap. that bracelet you said you liked when you saw a random stranger wearing it? he’s got a keen eye and found it online. he wouldn’t make a big deal of these gifts, he felt he didn’t need to. they were never really expensive or big gifts but they were thoughtful and showed how observant he was.

bodyguard! artem who asks if you’d like a piggyback when you’re too tired regardless of your weight. he will persist when you refuse his offer and it takes a stern glare to cause him to shut up. even then, he’ll keep a hand on your back, gently leading you in worry of you fainting or your legs giving out.

bodyguard! artem who you tease about always wearing the same outfit, except in different shades of dark blue. though he doesn’t realize you’re teasing and takes time to point out every difference between the suit he wore today and the one he wore yesterday. yes, they were both navy blue, fitted exactly the same, and even his tie was the same but apparently they were two different outfits! the stitching on the suit was so obviously different, at least that’s what he had said.

bodyguard! artem who will go awkwardly stiff whenever you lay your head on his shoulder to fall asleep after a long day. if it’s in a public area, he’ll try his hardest to gentle scoot away while being worried about disrupting your sleep. if you’re in a car or some place similar, he’ll let you sleep, maybe even turn on your favourite playlist which he has downloaded. if he finds you squirming in your sleep, he’ll put a jacket on his shoulder to make it more like a pillow.

bodyguard! artem who goes to extreme lengths to secure your safety because he cares about you! everything is always planned out in advance so he can compensate for any mishaps. with artem, there’s many backup plans and procedures he created in case of emergencies. though emergencies never happen, he doesn’t want to be too careless.
