AN: Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood evening my sweeties! This is the last chapter! BOO! But hey, it's okay. I got more MacGyver fics coming your way ;) Don't worry. I also received another request which is awesome. I will get to it when I can :) Which is soon I hope. If you have a request/prompt, idea, or suggestion for me. Please let me know! PM me here or on my Facebook page :) Be warned though, I take forever with requests (my schedule's fault! I'm working on it. Requests always get done! Promise!) Anyways. I had a lot of fun writing sick Mac and big bro Jack! The brotherly (sometimes father and son) love they have...makes you melt. See that puddle. It's my heart. It melted. Anywhoozles. Saw the preview for next Fridays episode. No spoilers in case you haven't, but it's gonna be a goodie! I know it :) But like the whole Thornton thing, I expected it but not so early in the story, you know? I expected Thornton to be caught later on, not now. But hey. Whatever floats the writers boat I suppose *shrugs* The show's still good though. Not gonna lie. Still have a crush on Lucas...I mean what? *blushes* Don't look at me like that *flails then hides* Anyways. Next fic should be out Monday or Wednesday depending on a few things. Matty will have the spotlight once more. I need more practice and run time with her. Anyways. Thank you to everyone who followed/favorited/alerted! Y'all rock! Kiss! Special thanks to my reviewers and regulars! Y'all are rockstars! Big hugs and kisses! Now let's go! When we left off, Mac had a rough go, but Jack was there to save the day!

What Big Brother's Are For
Jack took good care of Mac for the next few days, and was relieved when the worst of came and left. Mac still had a cough but it would go away in another few days. So says the doctor. Yup. Jack dragged a pouting Mac to the doctor. Like always, Mac behaved for the doctor but when they got home Mac got his revenge. Patient Zero strikes again. Jack gave Mac a swat to the butt and put an end to his whining. Mac pouted and apologized after he had a nap. Jack just ruffled his hair and they chilled with Netflix. Good old Netflix and Bruce Willis.
Now they were back to work and Jack watched Mac like a hawk. He was never out of his sight for long. When lunch time came Jack made sure he took his meds and made sure he was drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Lingering coughs were not fun to deal with, especially when they lingered for days on end.
"Here." Matty said holding a hand out to Mac.
Mac extended his hand out and took whatever Matty had in hers. He opened his hand and saw the Halls. Mac looked at Matty with a curious look. She smirked and shrugged.
"Lingering coughs are not fun." She said and returned to her discussion.
Mac shrugged and popped the Halls in his mouth and sucked on it. His cough settled and his throat felt better as well. He went back to paying attention, he rolled his eyes when he caught Jack smirking at him. He picked up a paperclip and molded it into the shape of a piece candy or a cough drop while he listened. Matty learned to deal with his paperclip art.
After the work day was over Mac wanted to go home and hog the couch to himself. Yeah he felt better, but he was still tired. Why did colds have to make you so tired? Well, Mac knew but he stilled wished colds weren't so draining. It was only the afternoon and he was ready for a nap or just bed in general.
'Must be from all the coughing.' Mac thought to himself. 'I really hate getting sick.'
He started coughing again and felt a hand patting his back. He knew it was Jack and smiled on the inside. Once his coughing fit subsided Matty ordered Jack to take Mac home and put his butt to bed. Jack smiled and took a protesting Mac home.
"I don't need to go to bed Jack." Mac said with a yawn at the end.
"Oh really?" Jack asked. "Seems to me like you need a nap kiddo."
Mac yawned again. "Don't need a nap." Mac rubbed his eyes sleepily.
Jack was having a hard time keeping himself from snapping pictures. MacGyver was downright adorable. He pulled into the drive and ushered a sleepy Mac upstairs. After making the boy eat and shoving his meds down his throat, he got him settled into bed and watched as he drifted off. Jack smiled and brushed a stray bang from his forehead.
Jack went downstairs and tidied up a bit and did what he had been for the last few days. He grabbed his reading glasses and some books, and back to Macs room. Satisfied the kid was still sleeping peacefully, he sat beside the bed and read while he kept watch.
"That's what big brothers are for. Huh, kiddo?" Jack asked mostly to himself.
Mac sighed contently in his sleep and snuggled further into his blankets and pillow. Jack chuckled.
"So damn adorable." Jack muttered.
D'aaaaaaaaaw! I think this was a good ending :) BapBapBap28, I hope you enjoyed! I did XD I hope you all enjoyed it and I'll see ya Mon. or Wed.
See ya in the next thrilling season of MacGyver!
