Ross groaned, as he threw up again. This was the third time he'd thrown up today.
"Oh, baby." Riker said, appearing the bathroom doorway. He knelt next to Ross and rubbed his back.
"Rikey." Ross said, crying when he finished. He felt like crap, and he was exhausted. He hated being sick. Riker hugged him, and played with his hair.
"Alright, baby. Let's get you to bed." He picked Ross up and carried him to his room. He put him in bed, and tucked him in.
"Cuddles." Ross said, looking at him pleadingly. Riker smiled, and climbed in next to Ross. Ross snuggled into his boyfriend's chest.
"Want to watch Romeo and Juliet?" Riker asked.
Ross shook his head, "I just want to cuddle...Will you play with my hair?"
"Sure, baby." Riker said, he started running his fingers through Ross' hair. Ross closed his eyes and smiled, slightly.
"That feels nice." he said, "Riker, when I get to feeling better can we go to the beach?"
"Sure." Riker said. Ross fell asleep a few minutes later. Riker kissed his boyfriend's forehead, and crawled out of bed. He went to his room and grabbed his laptop. Then he went back, and sat next to Ross. He watched a movie for a bit, when Ross scooted closer in his sleep. Riker frowned when he felt his boyfriend's forehead against his hip bone. He moved Ross' head back, and felt his hot forehead. Riker sat his computer down, and went to the bathroom to get the thermometer. He came back, and gently shook Ross' shoulder.
"Baby wake up. I need to take your temparture." Riker said, softly.
Ross whined, "Do you have too?"
"Yes, baby." Riker said.
"Fine." Ross pouted tiredly. He opened his mouth for Riker to put the thermometer under his tongue. Riker put it in, and Ross closed his mouth. After a minute it beeped, and Riker took it out. He looked at it and frowned.
"Don't go back to sleep yet. I'm going to run get some fever reducer and some juice." He got up and ran downstairs to pick-up what he needed, and went back to Ross.
"Alright, baby. Take this, and here's some juice to wash it down." Riker said, handing Ross the medicine and juice. Ross took the medicine and grimaced at the taste.
"That's nasty." he said.
"That's what the juice is for baby." Riker chuckled.
"Don't laugh at the sick person." Ross pouted.
Riker smiled, and kissed Ross' forehead, "I'm sorry, baby. I love you."
"Love you too." Ross said. He took a drink of the juice then handed it back to Riker. Riker sat it on the table beside the bed, and crawled back in next to Ross. He picked up his laptop.
"Want to watch something now?" Riker asked, playing with Ross' hair again.
"Can we watch Harry Potter?" Ross asked.
"Sure, if that's what you want." Riker said.
"Well, I don't mind it and I know that's what you want. Or Pirates. And I want to see you smile, because it makes me feel better." Ross said.
Riker smiled, "Just spending time with you makes me smile."
Ross blushed, "I love you."
"Love you too...Romeo and Juilet?"
"Romeo and Juilet." Ross agreed. So they cuddled together for the rest of the afternoon watching Romeo and Juilet. When it ended Riker looked at his sleeping boyfriend. He leaned down and kissed his cheek.
"Sleep well, my Romeo." he whispered, before laying down and going to sleep himself.
