Fucking Flu
"Can I get you something?"
"A death would be nice." Brian groaned.
"I'll get you a few Advils and some water." Justin said and went into the bathroom.
He came back with the pills and a glass of water and sat on the bed. He felt Brian's forehead with his hand.
"You're hot."
"I know." Brian grinned.
Justin rolled his eyes. "I meant that you have a fever. I think I should take your temperature."
"You're not sticking anything in there."
"I didn't hear you complain a few nights ago."
Brian had his eyes closed and he didn't say anything but Justin noticed a tiny smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Anyway, there are things called ear thermometers which are meant to be stuck in the EAR."
"Whatever."
Justin got the thermometer from the bathroom and took Brian's temperature.
"105, you definitely have a fever. Now, you have to take these pills; I'll help you sit up." Brian managed to swallow the medicine and flopped back on the bed.
"You need some rest. Go to sleep and get better."
"Justin..."
"Yeah?"
"Don't go, stay with me please", Brian pleaded.
Justin was surprised to hear the plea in Brian's voice. "Okay." Justin climbed on the bed and ended up in a half-sitting position with his back leaning against the wall. Brian put his head on Justin's lap and within minutes, he was sound asleep. Justin toyed with Brian's soft auburn hair and just watched him sleep. He looked always so peaceful when he was sleeping. And beautiful. He couldn't keep any of his walls up; he was his true self. A very few people got the chance to see that. Justin smiled when he thought that he was one of those people. He had gotten under the hard exterior.
Justin stayed with Brian for a while but then he remembered he had to finish a project. So he carefully climbed out of bed trying not to wake Brian. Brian didn't even stir. 'God, he really must be sick; usually he's a very light sleeper.' Justin thought and gave Brian's forehead a light kiss.
A couple of hours later Justin heard some rustling noises from the bedroom and went to check on Brian. Brian was awake.
"Hey. Feeling any better?"
"A bit."
"You're still hot. Do you have a headache?"
"Yeah, I think someone got inside my head with a sledgehammer and now is trying to hammer his way out."
"Ooh poor thing", Justin said and stroked Brian's hair. "Do you think you could eat something?"
"Not really."
"Okay, well I'll give you some hot flu medicine you can drink. Do you need to use the bathroom?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, I'll help you."
"I think I can manage by myself."
"Well I don't. I know you're gonna get dizzy when you get up."
"Will you hold my dick too?"
"No. Unless you want me to." Justin smirked.
"Twat."
Justin helped Brian to the bathroom and Brian was actually glad for that 'cause he didn't feel very steady.
"Gonna be okay now?"
"Yes mom." Justin stuck out his tongue at Brian and went to the kitchen.
Brian drank the medicine and took another pain killer.
"Maybe I should sleep on the couch." Brian said.
"Trying to get rid of me, huh?"
"No, I just don't want you to catch this."
"Well you're not going anywhere and neither am I. If I'm going to catch it, I'm sure I was infected already this morning. In the SHOWER."
Brian raised his eyebrow. "I guess there's no point then. Fuck, I'm never going to get well."
"Okay, now you're just queening out. You've been sick for a day; give it a few days. I'll make sure you won't die. Now, go back to sleep and I'll join you later." Justin said and kissed Brian gently.
"Okay."

The next morning
Brian woke up around nine and couldn't believe how long he had slept. He looked - well actually stared - at Justin who was sleeping beside him. He looked almost angelic with his blond hair and fair skin. Watching Justin sleep was Brian's biggest guilty pleasure. Not that he'd ever admit that. Justin started to stir and opened his eyes.
"Hey, better now?"
"Yeah. Maybe I'll live after all."
"That's good." Justin said smiling.
'God I love that smile.' Brian thought and gave Justin a kiss. This time the kiss wasn't full of passion like their kisses usually were - this time the kiss was filled with love.
"What time is it?"
"A little after nine."
"Can we sleep a bit longer, please? It's Saturday after all."
"Sure, I'm not very keen to get up anyway."
"Good." Justin said and snuggled closer to Brian.
They got up two hours later and even Brian managed to eat some soup. Later they just hung around and watched some TV. Brian was still quite tired so he turned in early.
The next morning Justin was awakened by butterfly kisses placed on his neck and his chest.
"Mmmm Someone isn't so sick anymore, huh?"
"Better than new." Brian grinned.
"So, any plans for today?"
"Oh I have plans." Brian said and gave Justin a seductive look.
"Oh. Are you sure you're up to it?"
"I'm up."
"Care to tell me about your plans?"
"I have a better idea - I'll show you."
"Well if you insist."
