AN: Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood evening my sweeties and hey to any of my SPN darlings! Tonight's fic is a request fic from BapBapBap28! I decided to do this first while I rework the fic I had planned a little. I noticed a part in the middle of the fic that was out of place, so I'm giving it a little work over and it'll be out as soon as this one's finished :) I'm not sure how long this one will be...it was intended to be a one shot, but the more I wrote the more it came to life. So we'll see where this goes and how it plays out. If anything it should only be a three shot but like I said, the more I wrote it out the more life it gained, so we'll see. Still have mixed feeling about Matty and not really sure on how to write her, so forgive me if she's not herself. I'm trying, so bare with me! She is in this story, sorry Thornton...after Friday's episode...I cutting ties with you...unless I need you. I'll call you. Maybe. Lol. Anyways. Back to walking on my treadmill! Whoo! I feel so much better now that I'm back into walking. The doctor gave me the green light last week and yesterday I started back up. My legs, ankles, feet, and toes screamed at me but were also thanking me XD When it gets warmer I'll also start walking outside. Better yet, IF it gets warmer and stays that way. Geez. Ohio can't make up it's mind on what it wants to be. Hot or cold? Blegh. Come on Ohio! Get your nonsense together. Ain't nobody got time for it XD Anyways, let's get going!
Summary: BapBapBap28 requested a fic in which Jack takes care of a sick Mac. You wish is my command sweetie! One sick Mac with big brother Jack coming up!

Mac and The Common Cold
Mac was trying his best to pay attention to Matty but his fuzzy head was having none of it. He was so tired, his head felt two times too big, he was shaky, the room felt warmer than normal, and he was sure they were on solid ground but everything sounded like it was underwater. He let his eyes slip close once more and was about to drift off when a sharp noise startled him awake and he jumped up into a defensive position. He heard laughing from Riley and Jack, and relaxed. He muttered under his breath and sat back down.
"Good to see you awake Mac. I hope I wasn't too boring for you." Matty said giving him the stink eye.
Mac swallowed and shook his head gently. He felt like his insides wanted to come out and show themselves. Matty looked at him again and started back up. Mac tried to pay attention as best as he could, but bolted out of the room about ten minutes later and made it to the men's room just in time. After his breakfast made an encore appearance he moaned as his stomach rolled again and he lost it once more. He startled slightly when he felt a hand on his back. The hand ran up and down his back soothingly and himself leaning back into the touch and listening to Jack whispering to him.
He leaned back into Jack when he was done. Now he wanted his toothbrush and some mouthwash.
"You good bud?" Jack asked softly.
Mac nodded. He was good, at least for now. Jack helped him up and he rinsed his out and washed his face.
"Alright kiddo. Let's go." Jack said.
"Go? Where?" MacGyver rasped out.
"Home. Duh. You're clearly sick brother and Matty ordered me to take your butt home and take care of you." Jack said leading Mac back out to grab his stuff.
"But Jack we can't leave. What if a case comes up?" Mac asked.
"Matty's got another team waiting. We're on sick leave." Jack said.
"We?" Mac questioned.
"Yeah. Matty also has me on babysitting detail, but you know I'm not leaving you alone you're sick." Jack said.
MacGyver sighed and let Jack take him home. Mac raised an eyebrow when they missed the turn for his place and headed for Jacks. But didn't question it. He was too tired. Instead he placed his head on the glass of the window and let the coolness soothe his headache and fever. He closed his eyes and let the soft country station wash over him.
Jack watched Mac lean into the window and sighed inwardly. He knew Mac wanted to question him on why he was taking him to his house, but figured he was too tired and wanted to silence that big brain of his. Before going home he pulled into the CVS that was on his way, and got some stuff to take care of a sick MacGyver. He paid for his stuff and loaded it into the backseat on the driver side. He then slipped in the drivers seat and looked at the now sleeping boy, he smiled. Mac always looks so young when he was sleeping. Like the world melted off his shoulders and he didn't worry about anything.
After making Mac was alright for the moment Jack headed for home. Once there he got Mac settled in the old guest room but became Mac's over the years. When Mac was taken care of for the moment, Jack went back and got the stuff he got from CVS and headed back in. He smirked and shook his head when he heard the shower going. Mac tended to shower more when sick. He didn't like feeling "gross".
Mac went downstairs after his shower and found Jack heating up some chicken noodle soup. He sat at the island counter and laid his down.
"Hey bud. How ya feeling after your shower?" Jack asked.
Mac just hummed his answer. Jack chuckled.
"Soup's nearly ready. You eat a little bit and get some medicine then it's bedtime." Jack said.
Mac just hummed again. His head was demanding he sleep. He ate as much as he could when the soup was ready and downed the medicine Jack gave him. He let Jack take him back upstairs and huffed when the man tucked him in with a grin on his face. He closed his eyes and felt Jack's hand on his forehead.
"You can go back to work Jack." Mac rasped.
"Nope. You're stuck with me brother." Jack said. "Get some sleep. I'll be right downstairs if you need me."
Mac nodded and drifted off to sleep. It wouldn't be peaceful for long.
Uh oh. That sounds ominous. Wonder what's up? BapBapBap28 sweetie! I hope you enjoyed the first chapter!
Until Next Time! *eats ice cream despite it being cold outside*
