Chapter 6

An hour later

Everyone had moved into the living room. Some people started leaving. Justin fell asleep on the couch and Craig thought he should get Justin home. He went over to George and told him they should go. George went out to start the car and Craig got his jacket on and got Justin into his coat. He would wake Justin but he is very cranky when you wake him up. He picked Justin up and carried him out to the car. Craig set Justin in the back seat and buckled him in.

By the time Craig got Justin into bed, he was starting to wake up. "Dad?"

"Go back to sleep bud."

"I feel like shit."

"I know bud. I'll get you some medicine then go back to sleep."

"Okay." Craig got the medicine from the bathroom he put in there for Justin when they first moved in with George. He poured the liquid into the little measuring cup that came with the medicine. He put the medicine back and went back to Justin's room and went over to the bed. "Hey bud, I need you to sit up for me." Craig put the medicine cup on the bedside table and helped Justin sit up. He handed Justin the cup and left to go get water. He came back and handed Justin the water and took the medicine cup back to the bathroom. He rinsed it and put it back in the cabinet. When he went back to the room, the glass was on the bedside table and Justin was lying down. Craig went over to him and whispered in Justin's ear, "Hey bud if you need anything just call me. Okay?"

"Okay." Craig left Justin's room and went to his bedroom.

Next Day

5:00am

Craig woke up and heard a faint, "Dad!" He got out of bed and went to Justin's room. He went over to the bed and kneeled down. He brushed his fingers through Justin's hair.

"What is it bud?"

"My stomach really hurts."

"Okay. I'll go get medicine and I'll get a bucket in case you throw up." After Justin took the medicine, he laid back down. Craig started to walk out of the room when he heard Justin call him. "Yeah bud?"

"Can you sleep in my bed with me?"

"Sure. I'll be right back." He put the medicine cup back then went to his room and got his cell phone. When he got back to Justin's room, he set his phone on the bed side table and laid down next to Justin. He didn't fall asleep until he heard Justin's soft snores. He fell asleep himself a couple minutes later.

6:00am

Craig woke up from his alarm on his phone. He had to go to work but he didn't want to leave Justin by himself. He knew George had to work and there wasn't anyone else to stay with Justin to make sure he was okay. He got up carefully to not wake up Justin and started walking down the stairs to the kitchen when he bumped into George. "Oh sorry George."

"It's okay. How's Justin feeling?"
"He got worse this morning. I was about to call out of work."

"You don't have to call out of work. I could stay with him."

"I couldn't ask you to do that. You have work too."

"I'm not going into work today. I took today off."

"Then you should enjoy your day off."

"Craig, listen to me. I will stay here with Justin and you go to work."

"Okay, fine. Thanks George." After Craig turned the coffee pot on, he went to his bedroom and got ready for work. When he went back downstairs, George was in the kitchen, making breakfast.

"Want any breakfast?" George asked when he saw Craig.

"No thanks. I have to go. Bye George."

"Bye." Craig left to go to work. George finished cooking breakfast and after eating, he cleaned everything up and checked on Justin. He was still sleeping so George went to his bedroom to get some work done.

7:00am

George was working when he heard a faint sound. He got up and as he walked closer to Justin's room, he knew Justin was throwing up. George went into Justin's room and saw Justin leaning over, throwing up in the bucket next to his bed. He sat next to him and rubbed his back. When Justin was done throwing up, he grabbed the glass from the bedside table, drank some water and put it back down. "Where's my dad?" Justin asked, noticing George was there and not his dad.

"He went to work. I'll be here if you need me." George got up to leave.

"Can you lay with me?"

"Sure."

12:00pm

By lunch, Justin wasn't any better. He was up every hour throwing up. George would lay with him until he fell asleep then he would go back to doing work. Justin wouldn't eat anything; he didn't have an appetite. Craig called a couple hours after he left for work to check on Justin. He knew George could take care of him, but he was still worried about him.
