So I got bored in Biology the other day and wrote the next chapter of this. Poor Kaoru…
Kaoru sniffled, letting out a groan before coughing up mucus. He felt icky. And Hikaru couldn't sleep with him last night because of his sickness. The older twin suddenly came in, trudging over to his normal side of the bed and climbing up beside his brother.
"How's ya feeling, Kao?" Hikaru asked softly.
"Ugh…my head hurts…" Kaoru sniffled again. Hikaru looked concernedly at his brother, not sure what he could do help.
"Kaoru, medicine time." One of the maids called as she came in.
"Nooo…!" I dun' want it!" Kaoru whined, throwing the covers over his head.
"Your mommy is the one that said you need to take it, Kaoru." The maid said in a monotone voice. She handed him the dreaded syrup and forced him to down the so-NOT-cherry-flavored medicine.
"Yuuuuckyyyyyyyy!" he groaned out, taking his ginger ale to hopefully wash the disgusting syrup down. The maid left the twins to go do whatever else Mrs. Hitachiin wanted. Once Kaoru was sure she was gone he began kicking around and shaking his head, doing anything he could to truly get rid of that horrible taste in his mouth.
"Kaoru! Calm down! You'll feel worse!" Hikaru calmed his twin and made him lay back down.
Kaoru groaned sleepily, rolling over and grumbling into the pillow, "It tasted nasty, Hika…" Hikaru scooted closer to run his fingers through the younger's hair gently to lull him to sleep. Slowly, Kaoru gave into the dream world and soft snores.
When the younger twin awoke, he was alone. "Hika…?" he called before coughing. "Hika? …Hikaru!" Kaoru jumped down, stumbling only once, and ran out of the room to find his brother. He found the older on the couch watching TV with a cookie in his hand. "HIKARU!" Kaoru surged toward the copy of himself, hugging him close. "I woke up and you wasn't there! You scared me!" Kaoru whined, his coughs interrupting his scold.
"Sorry, Kaoru, Momma told me I had to let you sleep or you'd not get better." Hikaru explained. Kaoru's expression lightened in relief.
"S'ok, Hikaru." Kaoru hugged his twin once more. Hikaru smiled until he was interrupted by a small cough.
"Oh no…" they said in unison.
So yeah, preductive day in Biology I guess…just not for the actual class…no wonder I have a B in there…
