Benny grunted as Ethan's elbow went into his side, shifting against the younger boy.
"E?"
Ethan gurgled something incoherently, snuffling and whispering, before he sank back into Benny with a sleepy sigh and a cough. Benny still had a face full of Ethan's thick brown curls and two hands curled up around his side, so he called it good.
Unfortunately for Ethan but fortunately for Benny, the smaller was sick. Benny had walked into the Morgan's house that morning to Jane making cereal and telling Benny that Ethan was upstairs still, throwing up and groaning like a ghost. Benny was at the top of the stairs before she even finished pouring milk into the bowl, and found Ethan curled up in a ball at the foot of his toilet; he did sound rather like a ghost.
So, Ethan got to spend the day feeling like absolute shit, but Benny got to skip school and marathon Lord of the Rings and cuddle up to his boyfriend.
"Oh, God," Ethan murmured, suddenly wide awake, and bolted for the bathroom in record time. Benny heard him throwing up the macaroni and cheese he'd managed to choke down an hour earlier, and winced sympathetically.
Pausing the movie, Benny shuffled over to the bathroom with a heavy heart. Ethan was still on the ground, head against the vanity and arms around his stomach.
"This is awful," he mumbled to Benny, looking absolutely wrecked. "I don't have anything else to puke up, Ben."
"I know." Benny told him softly, and grabbed the cup off of the sink. He filled it with water and gave it to Ethan, sinking down next to him. He watched Ethan drink the water, and taking the empty glass from him, pulled Ethan to his side again. "I know."
Fingers automatically going to his hair, Benny rubbed Ethan's back and twisted his hair in a soothing gesture. Ethan shivered and curled back up to him, whining softly and burying his nose into Benny's shoulder.
"You just have to try and get some sleep and drink a lot of orange juice." Benny said, reciting a doctor's order off of the top of his head. "I heard Vitamin C or pulp help fights viruses or some crap like that."
Benny felt Ethan's lip twitch against his skin. "Hey, Benny. What do you call a book about orange juice?"
Benny humored him. "Hm?"
Ethan laughed, coughed, and then laughed some more. "Pulp Fiction."
Snorting, Benny just kissed his hot and slightly sweaty forehead, and grinned.
"I am most definitely not letting you watch that movie while you're sick. You'll end up hallucinating that you're John Travolta and shoot me. Or pretend you're Uma Thurman and get your movies mixed up."
"Or maybe I'll think I'm Bruce Willis' girlfriend," Ethan said, tightening his arms around Benny's sides. "and keep rambling about getting oral sex from you."
"Please don't."

A/N: UM THIS WAS PROBS CRAP BUT I AM ALSO SICK SO ETHAN AND I ARE BRETHREN AT THIS MOMENT YAY.
But, anywho, I hAVE GOT SOME THINGS TO SAY:
1) I am really frickin' sorry about that Halloween fic that was supposed to happen but never did. October was absolutely insane with marching band and then I got a job (I work at McDonalds now and want to scoop my eyeballs out with a spoon dear god) so it's been a little crazy and I forgot all about the Halloween thing and yeah. So, 2) I am sorry I've been MIA for like a month now. I missed you guys! But that's where my good news comes in at 3) THE CHRISTMAS FIC IS PLANNED OUT YAY. And it's not gonna be some little craptastic eight chapter fic about an evil snowman or whatever shit I thought was gonna fly. This year, I am doing a 25 Days of Christmas!verse for these little lovely souls and yours, as well. Each day until Christmas, I'll upload a chapter of the gang progressing through December, and it'll all be crazy af and really funny (I hope) and really gooey. Will there be sexy times? Idek yet man, but if there is, I'll let you guys know. So, between now and December 1st, I might post a little diddle, but most likely not bc I'm lazy and boring. SO UNTIL THEN YAYZ!1!
