Chapter 3 is up! Bhawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! I'm wasting your time with this author's note, just go read it!
OOoOO
Heracles parked his car near his house and helped Kiku up his stairs. Once inside, Kiku prepared for the lecture Heracles was going to give him and sat down on Heracles's bed. Heracles angrily sighed, sitting down on his desk chair. He looked up to look Kiku strait in the eye. Kiku flinched when he saw the angry look Heracles gave him.
"Are you serious? What were you thinking! Kiku, if I was not there, you could have… would have…" He did not finish his sentence. Kiku said nothing and only watched Heracles.
"This is all stupid. All of it. Kiku, I thought you were the smart one here. Did you really let Ivan's teasing get to you?" Heracles continued. Kiku hesitated before shaking his head. Ivan was the least of it all.
He had no place. He did not even fit in. He looked up before saying how he felt. He explained it all to Heracles.
Heracles nodded and listened the whole way. How Kiku felt unwanted. The story of Kiku's parents dying in a car crash. He sat near Kiku and comforted him when he bursted to tears.
"Hera-Heracles! I hate it!" He sobbed. Heracles layed Kiku down and placed the sheets above him.
"Kiku, take a nap. That's what I do when I have a problem." Heracles offered. Kiku frowned.
"Is that why you did not finish you science project la-last week?" Kiku scolded.
Heracles sheepishly smiled. That was true.
He patted Kiku's hair down. "Uhh… nevermind that. Just take a rest, okay?"
Kiku shrugged and shut his eyes.
Heracles sighed and was about to leave, when Kiku's hand shot out from under the covers.
"Please don't leave me…" Kiku begged. Heracles looked back down at his friend. He softly smiled to his self.
"Well, I was needing a nap myself…" he muttered and sat in a comfortable position near Kiku.
Kiku lifted his head from the pillow and rested it at Heracles lap instead. It was more comfortable that way. Heracles only smiled and petted Kiku's hair more.
Yawning, he turned off the lamp and fell asleep.
~oOo~
Kiku's eyes fluttered opened and he yawned, felling more than usually groggy. He got up, instantly regretting it and fell back down on Heracles's lap, waking him up. Heracles woke and stretched.
"Uhh… afternoon, Kiku." He yawned.
Kiku said nothing and rolled off Heracles's lap, laying at the edge of the bed facedown. Heracles instantly noticed and loomed over Kiku. "What's wrong?"
All he heard was a muffled noise. Flipping Kiku over, Heracles noticed Kiku had a face of pain. Kiku groaned and clutched his head. Heracles started to panic.
"I-Is there anything you need?" he asked. But Kiku shook his head.
"I…don't…feel good." He replied.
Heracles felt Kiku's forehead and pulled back in shock. Kiku was having a high fever. Not used to this situation, Heracles pulled Kiku onto his lap and comforted him, just as his mom would do when he was young.
Kiku gasped when he felt Heracles pulling him to his lap, but was too weak to struggle. After a couple seconds, he felt used to it and comfy, but he was still hurting.
Clutching Heracles's shirt, he bit his lower lip and tried to ignore the pain, soon falling unconscious.
