This idea is from the "No You Can't" Forum! :D This was fun to write! hope you guys like it!

"Sir, I don't think this is a very good idea." Minion said, handing his master their latest weapon. Megamind had woken up this morning sicker than a dog and he still wanted to continue with their plan for today.

Megamind blew it off, placing the ray next to him on his table. "Enough Minion. We have a shedule to keep!"

"Schedule, Sir." Minion corrected.

Megamind ignored him asking "Is the destruct-o-tron ready?"

Minion sighed "Yes, Sir."

"Good. Now go get Roxanne." Megamind commanded.

Minion tried one last time to deter him "Sir, why don't you take a sick day? Seeing as how this is your job, so to speak, you can call in sick!"

Megamind glared at him "Evil does not take sick days Minion, now go get Miss. Ritchi!"

"Fine." Minion sighed before grabbing the spray can and heading to the reporter's apartment.

Roxanne walked out of her room, dressed and ready for work. She wasn't wearing anything too formal; just jeans and a nice t-shirt. She knew she wasn't going to be doing any reporting today. She had far too much desk work to do.

Oh joy.

Roxanne then walked over to her fridge and pulled out a couple of eggs and slabs of bacon. A good breakfast, then off to work. Just as she was turning on the burner, her doorbell rang.

Walking to her door, she looked through the peep hole only to see Minion. Sighing she unlocked her door and opened it. "Yes?" she asked knowing full why he was there.

"The boss has got a new plan." Minion said and although he looked excited about, Roxanne could tell Minion was unhappy about something.

"I can see that." She said before sighing. "Let me just turn off my burner." He nodded and waited patiently for her to return. "Alright, let's go." She said once she put her food back in the fridge and turned the burner off. Minion nodded and promptly sprayed her, instantly turning her world dark.

..::-::..

As she awoke from her forced slumber, she heard the mumbled voices of her captors. "Are you sure we shouldn't reschedule?" Minion was asking.

"No Minion, now get into character." Megamind snapped and Roxanne was surprised at how rude he sounded. She heard the fish sigh then felt the bag over her head come off.

Gasping for fresh air she glared slightly at him "That bag is awful, could you get a new one, or at least wash it?" she asked.

"Miss. Ritchi, so kind of you to drop by." Megamind said, ignoring her comment as he smiled evilly and turned around in his large rolling chair.

Roxanne shrugged deciding to play along "I was in the neighborhood."

"So glad to see-" suddenly he erupted into a long coughing fit. Roxanne stared at him as Minion fought the urge to run to his side.

When he was finally done, his eyes had lost their vibrancy and were dreary and tired looking. His skin was paler than normal and the purple in his cheeks was gone. He let out a dull groan and leaned forward onto his knees. "Whoa." Roxanne said.

"You okay, Sir?" Minion asked.

"I'm fine-" again he broke into coughing. Minion and Roxanne stared at him not really knowing what to do or say. When he was done he closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. "Ow." He croaked. Looking at Roxanne he asked "Where were we?"

"You were coughing." She said drily.

Megamind gave her a little glare "No before that."

"Something about you being glad?" she tried again.

"Ah yes," he said, smiling evilly again "I'm glad that you could stop by."

Roxanne looked at him "You already said that." She told him.

Megamind looked at her for a minute or two like he was processing what she was saying before he glared and snapped "Fine. Let's just call Metro Man then." Walking back to his computer he pressed a button making the screen turn on only to show him looking at the monitor. "No. That's not it." Trying again he released a weapon. "Darn it!" putting the weapon away he tried again, only to fail once more. Getting angry he called to Minion "Minion summon Metro Man!"

Minion sighed and walked up to his boss "I'm sorry, Sir, but no." he said turning the monitors off.

Megamind looked at him "What? Why not?" he whined.

"Because you're sick and I don't want to you to go to jail, while you're sick." Minion answered. Roxanne snickered at what the fish just said. He just admitted that he didn't think his boss would win.

Under normal circumstances Megamind would've caught the flub up as well, but he head was throbbing too much to care. "Minion, please." He said "I'm not in the mood. Just do as I tell you."

"No, Sir. I'm putting my foot down." Minion said standing firm. "No evil plans for today."

Megamind sighed, not really in the mood for fighting. "Fine, then take Miss. Ritchi home."

Minion was about to do as he was told when an idea popped into his head "Actually, I could use your help, Miss. Ritchi."

Before Roxanne could answer Megamind sighed rubbing his temples again. "Minion please, just take her home."

"No." he said surprising both Roxanne and Megamind once more. "I'm sorry, Miss. Ritchi, but I need your help and I'm not letting you leave yet." Minion said forcefully.

Roxanne looked at both men. Did they hit their heads or something? She had never seen Minion or Megamind act like this. "So you're the one kidnapping me for today, huh?" she asked the fish with a smile.

Minion smiled apologetically at her and nodded "Sorry, I'm just not sure what to do. Sir's never been sick before." He told her.

Looking at Megamind staring off into space, she sighed "Alright." Minion smiled at his work and untied Roxanne from her seat on the metal chair while Megamind just pouted. Roxanne walked up to the still pouting Megamind. "Don't move." She ordered. He was about to protest when she placed a cool and gentle hand on his forehead. After a moment she removed her hand, much to his displeasure, and said "Well, you have a fever. Obviously you have a headache," she continued "anything else?" He was about to answer when he sneezed a couple of times and began to cough again. After he was done he slouched in his seat holding his throat as Roxanne looked at him. "And a sore throat." Turning to Minion she said "He'll need to lay down somewhere and have plenty of fluids; something warm to eat as well as drink."

Minion nodded "He can lay on the couch."

"I'm right here you know!" Megamind snapped.

"Good." Roxanne smiled "Then you can go and lay down." She said.

"Now look here, Miss Ritchi," he said pointing at her "I will not be ordered around by my hostage-"

"It's either you go yourself or I have Minion carry you." She said with a knowing smile. Megamind glared at her, but stood up and made his way to the couch. Minion and Roxanne shared a look before following him. "Minion, can you bring out a cold, wet wash cloth?" Roxanne asked as Megamind plopped onto his couch, mumbling to himself. Minion nodded and went to the 'kitchen' while Roxanne came and sat on the table next to him.

After a moment the fish returned with the cloth and handed it to Roxanne before running back to the 'kitchen' to make his boss something warm to eat. "Why didn't you just take a sick day?" Roxanne asked, placing the wet cloth on his forehead.

"Evil does not take sick days!" he cried before cringing.

"Yeah," Roxanne said "shouting while having a headache; not wise."

"Noted." He said, closing his eyes and resting his arms over his eyes. Roxanne smiled at this despite herself. She looked at him and seeing his cape resting on the back of the couch, she pulled it over him, making his eyes pop open and sit up straight. "What are you doing?" he asked flushing a bit before groaning in pain again.

She smiled at how uncomfortable he looked "You need to keep warm." She answered "And you need to lay down." She added. He begrudgingly laid back down. "You need to rest if you want to be back to your predicable and villainlly self."

He glared at her and said frankly "I am not predicable."

"Sure you're not." She said as Minion came into the room.

"Here is your soup, Sir." He said placing it on the table next to them. "I also got you some warm tea. It says online that it will help with the coughing."

Megamind nodded and sat up grabbing the cup. Instantly he spit out the contents "That's awful!" he said.

Minion looked apologetic "I'm sorry, Sir. They said it was supposed to be good for you."

"It is good for you." Roxanne interrupted. "And if you want to get better you need to drink all of that, eat all of your soup, sleep it off and stay warm." She instructed standing up.

"You're liking this far too much." Megamind said glaring at her.

Roxanne smiled "Call it pay back for all the kidnappings." She said.

As soon as Roxanne turned away Megamind smiled a bit and closed his eyes once more, leaning back into his previous position. "So is that everything, Miss Ritchi?" Minion asked politely.

Roxanne nodded "As long as you stick to that, you should be healthy in no time."

"Great, now leave." Megamind said, shooing her away.

Minion glared a bit at his boss while Roxanne said "Gratitude at its finest I see." Megamind smirked.

"Well if that's all, then I'll just take you home." Minion said, walking back to get the spray.

"Thank you Minion." Roxanne said.

Not able to help himself, Megamind stood up and faced her. "Expect us soon, Miss. Ritchi." He said darkly as Minion sprayed the contents into her face.

Instantly Roxanne passed out, falling into Megamind's surprised arms.

The super villain looked at his minion. Minion shrugged "It's just how she fell, Sir." Thinking for a moment he then added "Good catch though!"

..::-::..

A few weeks later Roxanne awoke much to the same way; hearing muffled voices of her captors and the awful smell of the bag. Soon, to her relief, the bag was lifted off her head and she could breathe again. "Seriously, the bag is awful. Please wash it."

"The bag should be the last thing on your mind, Miss. Ritchi." Megamind said turning around in his chair, his finger tips touching.

As Roxanne looked at him, she noticed his eyes were sparkling and that his face had returned to his normal blue. "Felling better, I see." She commented with a smile.

"Oh, much." He said standing and walking over to her. Leaning down so that they were close enough to kiss, he whispered into her ear "And it's all thanks to you, Miss Ritchi."

Roxanne suppressed a shudder as it ran down her back. Turning to him, she put her 'temptress' smile on "Perfect." She purred.

He smirked "Why do you say that?" he asked still so close "Is it perhaps because you missed me?"

Roxanne leaned back and smiled. "No. It's because when you go to jail, after Metro Man defeats your for the hundredth time, you'll have a clean bill of health. And you won't have to worry Minion." His face fell a bit as she continued "Isn't that right, Minion?"

Minion looked up at what he was doing upon hearing his name. "What?" he asked confused.

Realization and memorys of what she was talking about came flooding back as Megamind stared at his friend "You did say that, didn't you!" he cried. Minion started to sputter over his words in an attempt to try and explain. She didn't like tattling, especially on Minion, but it was just so entertaining to watch Megamind's reaction.

As she watched them, she let a smile grace her features. Despite what she had said, she was happy to see Megamind feeling better. Her life just wasn't the same without him.
