The brunette stared blearily at the television screen as the news reports flashed across it in annoyingly bright colours. There really wasn’t anything new in the reports that she didn’t already now. There’s a virus going around. Schools are closed -- lots of places are closed. It was kind of a shit show. At first, Joan had simply thought that she was coming down with a cold, and seeing as she worked with food, she’d opted to take time off work until she got better. But she just… hadn’t. It should’ve stressed her out, how she’d only been getting worse, but really she’d just been so tired that she didn’t have the time to worry about it. Until the coughing had started getting worse. Yeah, coughing up blood had been a bit of wake up call. Though, apparently it was a normal symptom of the virus. Still fucking sucked though. Joan let out a large, heaving sigh as she forced herself to sit up and take a sip of water. The water was cool on her sore throat, but it tasted faintly of copper and didn’t really make her feel any better.

Joan knew how to look after herself when she was sick, she’d been doing it for a long time now. But this felt different, considering the illness she most likely had was also putting people in the hospital. She wasn’t at that point yet, but even if she was, she couldn’t afford to go to the ER. For now she’d just have to stick it out. Though, going to one of the quarantines probably would’ve been a better idea, the nearest one was so far away and she just felt… so horrible. It hurt to move, her muscles achy and sore. Plus, she was waiting for company.

It hadn’t been her intention to call Everett. It’d been a complete mistake actually. She’d meant to call her brother, to check on him and make sure he didn’t have the same sickness she did, but the letters had blurred together on her phone screen and she’d ended up calling Ev. She’d been kind of avoiding him and basically everyone for a while, mostly just because she didn’t want to get anyone else sick. She might’ve mentioned to him once that she was feeling under the weather before the news about the severity of the virus spread, but she couldn’t really remember.

A knock at the door shocked her into alertness and she couldn’t help but groan as she got up from her seat on the couch. “Comin’!” Even though the distance between the living room and the front door was short, it felt like a journey. God, she felt like shit and she fucking hated it. Joan could only imagine how she looked, it’d been a while since she saw her own reflection. She was dressed in her pyjamas and her hair hung limply around her face. She hadn’t bothered to tie it up, her arms hurt too much to attempt it. She unlocked the door and pulled it open hesitantly. She attempted to clear her throat, before croaking out a casual, “Hey.”
