Hi again everyone! Holy cow, nearly twenty reviews on one chapter that's not even a thousand words long? You guys are awesome! Sorry the chapters are so short. Like I said, I'll be updating very often to make up for it!
Hope you guys like this chapter! I do not own Lab Rats.
* * * Bree's POV * * *
As soon as we walked in the door to our house, my younger brother did a face-plant on the couch. I frowned. He seemed really out of it today. He had barely said a word on the way home, and he had a glazed-over look in his eye.
"Hey guys!" Mr. Davenport said as he entered the room. "Ready for some training?" Chase's groan was muffled a little by the couch. Mr. Davenport frowned and pointed at his youngest bionic son. "What's wrong with him?" he asked.
"We don't know!" I said as I walked over to the counter. "He won't tell us."
Mr. Davenport sat down next to my brother. Chase didn't move. "Hey, Chase," he said. "Are you okay?" All he got in response was another muffled groan. "Hey, look at me."
Chase complied, lifting his head so he was looking at Mr. Davenport. My father frowned and put a hand to his son's forehead. "I'm just tired!" Chase insisted. "I'll be fi–" He was interrupted by a fit of coughing.
"Leo, can you go get the thermometer please?" Mr. Davenport instructed. My step-brother hurried out of the room to find it.
"Mr. Davenport, I told you, I'm alright!" Chase tried again to convince him.
"You are not okay!" I insisted. "Mr. Davenport, he's been completely out of it today! He ran into my locker, barely talked on the way home from school, and now he's upset about training!"
"And you guys complain about me being a tattle-tale," Chase huffed.
"Yeah, something is definitely not right! He wouldn't tell me that talking dogs are real!" Adam put in. Chase threw what I'm guessing was supposed to be a glare at his brother.
Chase began to wrinkle up his nose. "Are you alright?" Mr. Davenport asked.
"I think . . . I think . . ." Then Chase let out a horrendous sneeze. There's something you need to know about my brother: he doesn't just sneeze, he . . .
"Woohoo, snot cannons are back!" Adam yelled.
We all turned to see Leo standing in the entrance to the room, covered head to toe in mucus. "GROSS!" he screamed, trying to wipe it off. Chase smiled weakly.
"Sorry Leo," he said. "I guess I glitched."
Leo handed the thermometer to Mr. Davenport. "I'm going to go take a shower," he said disgustedly before heading upstairs.
I turned to Adam, who was sitting next to me at the counter, and whispered, "Why do you think he glitched?"
"I dunno," Adam replied. Of course he didn't know. Why did I think he would? "But that was hilarious!" my brother continued. I rolled my eyes.
"99.8," Mr. Davenport announced.
"99.8 what?" Adam asked, confused.
"Degrees. That's his temperature," Mr. Davenport explained.
Chase was gazing up at us with a tired look on his face. His eyes looked all glazed over. I squinted and wondered if he comprehended what was going on.
"Let's get you down to the lab," Mr. Davenport decided. "Adam, a little help?" Adam rushed over, tossing Chase over his shoulder. Chase groaned again.
"I don't wanna," he said in a voice strangely similar to a five-year-old's.
"Well, you're gonna have to," Mr. Davenport said. We headed downstairs. I couldn't stop staring at my brother. He looked pretty awful. I hoped he would be alright.
