The next morning Caleb noticed Ezra's breathing has gotten a bit raspy.
Ezra has been crying for the last 20 minutes.
Without hesitation , Caleb picked up Ezra from his crib and cradled him in his arms
"It's gonna be ok buddy , it's ok you're gonna be fine."
Caleb felt for a fever and he discovered that Ezra has a high fever, but the problem is that he doesn't have medicine, but he does have ice in his freezing unit , so he went to get some and rolled in in his hands until it melted into a small pool of water.
Caleb rolled his hands up and down Ezra's back, Ezra shuttered " it's ok shh you're ok."Caleb said
Ezra needed medicine , most of all he needed a doctor , Ezra couldn't breathe , his breath sounded raspy and congested.
Ezra squirmed and moaned , and clutched Caleb's goatee and cried again Caleb winced at the sound of his son's cries , Ezra is what's important right now, he didn't care if he got fired or not, his son needs him more than work.
"Shh I'm right here, papa's here, ok He's gonna take care of you ." Caleb said as he put his cold hand on Ezra's forehead and rubbed his sick son's back.
Suddenly his phone rang it was his boss.
"Caleb where were you today?" Boss asked
"My son is sick so I need to stay home with him because he needs me right now ." Caleb said softly as to not wake Ezra
"Alright I'll see you in a few days ." Boss told him
Caleb 's trying really hard not to panic , but that's kinda hard when your son is sick.
"Mom come here!" Caleb called to his mom
"Caleb honey what's wrong?" Karah asked her distraught son
"Ezra's sick and I don't know what to do." Caleb said and Karah noticed how nervous Caleb sounded
"Caleb try to calm down , and think about what's important." Karah said
Caleb took a deep breath and thought about who's important at the moment . Ezra , his papa needs him at the moment.
"I need to get him to the hospital right now ." Caleb said as he got dressed and Karah got herself and Ezra dressed .
"Caleb I'll drive you sit in the back with Ezra you're too sidetracked to drive ." Karah said as she noticed in how bad Caleb is shaking
At the Jedi medical facility
Caleb carried Ezra into the hospital , and signed him in as Karah parked the car
"Ok Caleb have they called him back yet?" Karah asked
"No they said it'll be up to an hour till he can be seen , maybe we should try the children's hospital in coruscant city ." Caleb said
At children's hospital
Ezra got in immediately , Karah waited while Caleb went with Ezra to his little room.
2 hours later, Caleb emerged with a sleeping Ezra on his left hip.
"What does he have ?" Karah asked
"A cold , but it's a bad one though." Caleb said as he kissed Ezra's feverish forehead
When they got home , Caleb laid Ezra in his crib with his stuffed rabbit .
"Caleb here's his pedialyte the doctor said to give him." Karah said as she put the bottle in her sleeping grandson's mouth
Caleb laid on the couch with his mom sitting in the recliner , as they waited for Ezra to awaken
"Mom I never imagined Ezra getting a cold this young and this bad at all." Caleb said his voice shaking
"Caleb , I went through the same thing with you, you had a bad cold when you were a year old but you had to hospitalized because you couldn't stop puking ." Karah said as she moved to the couch so she could comfort her son.
Ezra let his family know he was awake by screaming
"He's awake." Caleb said as he got up to get him
"Hi Ezra , have a good nap?" Karah asked
Ezra snuggles closer to Caleb's embrace .
Karah checked her watch , and saw she had to head to work
"Ok Caleb dear I've gotta head to work , be good." Karah said as she left her son and Ezra
Ezra inched closer to Caleb's padawan braid
"Hi Ezra wanna watch a movie a cuddle." Caleb said as he saw his son falling asleep on his chest
Ezra nodded as Caleb rubbed his son's back through a coughing fit
Caleb took out his phone , and went onto space book to update his status
"Gonna watch a movie with my sick baby boy don't like seeing you like this ;( get better soon Ezra I love you so much"
About 4 hours later Caleb and Ezra fell asleep,Karah came in and saw her boys sleeping she put Caleb's favorite blanket onto them and kissed Caleb's forehead
Caleb's eyes opened and he saw his mom
"Hi mom how was work?" Caleb asked as he went into the kitchen to make Ezra's bottle
"Great but I missed you how was your lazy day with Ezra?" Karah asked
"Good we mostly just laid in the couch and watched movies and Ezra slept most of the time ." Caleb said as he laid Ezra in his crib in the nursery.
"Why don't you go out for a bit i'll take care of him." Karah said
"Uh mom it's been awhile since you've taken care of a baby let alone a sick one ." Caleb said
"Caleb it can't be that hard , he's basically like you when you're sick: whiny, clingy, only want his parent , and most importantly only wants juice or soup ." Karah made her point
"Good point mom but I shouldn't because you don't know how difficult Ezra can be when he's sick ." Caleb rested his case to his mom
"Caleb I love you dearly , but I think I can take care of things here , oh while you're out can you buy me some of this stuff?" Karah asked
Caleb left the house with his mom's list
Caleb returned about 2 hours later
"Sorry I'm late mom I had to go to 3 different stores to get everything on the list." Caleb entered the house with 4 bags of stuff
"Caleb , Ezra fell asleep about an hour ago ." Karah said
"OK I'll take him to my room and put him in his crib and leave him be." Caleb picked up his son and laid him in his crib.
