Sick

Lee looked down at his little brother, which was now sick with fever and a cough. 'It is my fault. I can't believe didn't even see it.' His eyes grew misty as he gently moved a piece of raven hair that had stuck to his brothers' head.

"Oh Rei, I am so sorry." He whispered. A tear fell down his cheek. He took in a deep breath. He closed his eyes to try to keep the second tear from falling, when he felt a hand on his shoulder. He opened his eyes and looked behind him,

" Mariah."

"It's not your fault you know. You couldn't have predicted this. Don't blame your self." Mariah spoke softly and her eyes were soft and she had a small smile to try and comfort him. He turned to his younger brother and sighed as he caressed his brothers' hand.

Reis' face a little paler than normal except for the flush on his cheeks from the fever. Some hair stuck to his face because of the sweat that beaded his face. His breathing was slightly heavier than normal. Lee tried to look on the positive side, but finding nothing positive about this he shed another tear as a shuddered sigh came out of his lips. 'Please don't die Rei, I'll never forgive myself if you do.' Lee thought.

"He's going to be fine." Mariah softly whispered. Her eyes misty, but having a smile on her face. " Come on, Here you should drink something, or eat something."

" I can't." Lee replied. " I'm not hungry or thirsty." His voice lowering at the last word because his voice was cracking. Another tear fell down his face.

'Oh Lee I am so sorry that your brother is sick.' She turned her head toward the raven-haired boy in the bed. 'Rei…Please, don't die. For Lees' sake and mine don't die we need you here Rei.' A tear slowly fell down her face. She looked at Lee again. His face showed that he was upset, his eyes were glassy, taking in a shuddered breath every now and then. He was stroking Reis hand. She smiled to see that he cared for his brother but she frowned again at how upset he was and it was killing her to see the mighty lion this upset. To see him not eat or drink or sleep for days. She wanted to do something for to try and lighten the mood a little, but she didn't know what. She watched as Lee rested his head on the bedside and closed his eyes as another tear fell onto the bed.

She looked softly looked down at Lee and whispered,

"There you go Lee sleep. I promise Rei will be there when you wake up." She bent down and softly kissed his cheek. Before she stood up and walked to the door before she turned and softly whispered a prayer,

" God, If you can hear me, please heal Rei. Lee and I would be lost with out him. Please don't take him. God don't take this boys' life he's our light, and our friend. So please don't take him away." A tear crystallized in her eyes as some fell down her face. She walked out leaving the two brothers to sleep.

A few minutes after Mariah left Rei stirred in his sleep. He slowly opened revealing his golden eyes. He took in breath and moved he gasped and looked to see what he hit and then he softly smiled as he saw the figure of his brother lying beside. His eyes soft and had a soft smile on his face.

" Oh Lee…" He softly whispered as he stroked his brothers' face and moved hair from his face. ' I am glad you care enough for me to stay at my side, but you really need to eat something. I don't want to have to worry myself over you if you get sick.' He softly coughed as he took in another breath. He slowly sat up. And supported him self on his hands. He turned his head to look out the window and sighed. Lee stirred beside him. He looked down at his older brother and gently smiled. Rei slowly crawled away and out of the bed he stumbled a little because he hasn't walked for a while. He waited until he could support himself and silently dressed him self. He coughed again and took a few minutes to regain his composure moved the hair from his face and sighed. He shivered as he looked behind him at his slumbering brother.

" I am sorry Lee, brother." He softly whispered. As he slipped his shoes on and walked to the door and shoved his arms into his coat. And stepped outside. He looked around letting his eyes get adjust to the dark and continued to walk into the darkness. He wandered along the path looking around and smiling. He took in another breath and started coughing. He leaned on a tree for support. He took in deep breaths of air to calm himself and to stop himself from shaking.

' Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.' He thought. He started to make his way back to his house when his vision became blurry and he started to stumble. Dizziness over took him he closed his eyes and took in a deep breath to try to stop the dizziness, but to no avail.

"Lee…" He gasped his brothers name." Lee…Help….Lee!" He called to his brother once again. He gasped for air as he started to fall.

"Lee…" he whispered his brothers name before passing but not before he felt someone catch him.
