Maven woke up and his head was killing him. It was hurting. And hurting bad."Urgh..." Maven let out a low groan

He felt like he was dying. Was he dying? That idea frightened Maven. "Pietro!" Maven yelled out hoarsely. Pietro came running in. "Maven? What's wrong?" Pietro asked. "I'm dying," Maven whimpered.

"You're what?!" Pietro cried. "I'm dying!" Maven threw up. Pietro held his hair back. Maven continued to vomit. "Shh. You're okay," Pietro soothed. "I'm dying!" Maven cried. Pietro said" I think you're sick"

"No. I'm dying!" Maven insisted. "Maven. You aren't dying," Pietro soothed. He felt Maven's head. It was burning up. Maven whimpered. "Hey. You're okay," Pietro whispered, "It's just a cold." Maven whimpered again. Maven's cat Grey jumped up. Pietro began to sneeze.

"Maven!" He cried. "Sorry," Maven mumbled, looking down. Pietro continued to sneeze. Maven petted Grey before setting him off. The moment the kitten was out of the room, Pietro stopped sneezing. "Sorry," Maven whimpered. "I'm gonna go get Wanda" Maven nodded and Pietro ran off.

Wanda sat next to Maven. Maven groaned, "I'm dying!" "You're not dying""Then what's happening?" "You just have the stomach flu," Wanda said. "What's a flu?""It's just when you feel sick."

Pietro began to sneeze again as Grey had jumped up. Maven reached out for his kitten. Grey jumped into his arms. Grey began to purr as Maven petted his cat. Pietro continued to sneeze. "Maven! Cat! Out!" He said between sneezes.

Maven hugged Grey closer. "Maven!" Pietro groaned. Maven shook his head. He wanted Grey with him. He needed his kitty cat. His little kitty cat. Maven hugged Grey. Grey let out a small, 'Meow'

Maven hugged Grey again. Pietro sneezed harder. "Maybe Grey should leave," Wanda said gently to Maven. Maven hugged the cat closer. Pietro whined through another sneeze.

Wanda placed a hand on her brother's shoulder. Pietro continued to violently sneeze. "You don't have to stay here," Maven mumbled. Pietro shook his head. "I wanna stay," he mumbled. Wanda nodded at her brother. Pietro continued to sneeze as he helped Maven.

"You should go," Wanda said. Pietro shook his head again. "I wanna stay," he repeated. Maven hugged Grey again. Grey let out a soft 'meow' Grey then rubbed against Maven. The kitten then jumped out of Maven's arms and padded out of the room.

Pietro slowly stopped sneezing. Maven ran to the bathroom and threw up. Pietro followed him. Maven puked into the toilet. Pietro held his hair back. Maven laid his head in Pietro's lap.

Pietro ran his fingers through Maven's hair. Maven fell asleep. Pietro smiled and kissed his forehead before picking him up and carried him to his bed. He carefully placed Maven in it and tucked him in. Grey jumped up and hissed at Pietro.

Grey hissed at him again before Pietro left. "Damn cat" Pietro rubbed his nose. Pietro wiped his nose once the sneezing subsided. He hated cats. But Maven had a cat now. And Pietro loved his little brother/clone.

Even if he thought he was dying when he was just sick. It just made Pietro love his brother more. Pietro would always love his little brother, no matter what.
