Taking care of little bro
A guest asked for a oneshot Emma taking care of a sick Neal.
"Emma." The little boy moaned. "Thirsty."
"Ok bud. Here we go." Emma said soothingly. She helped her little brother sit up just slightly before getting the straw in his cup of water to his lips and letting him take small sips. He'd come down with a tummy bug at pre-school and it had hit him hard. Emma offered to take the day off to look after him so both their parents could go to work. When he was finished she put the cup back on the table and got him lying down again, lying down beside him. He whimpered, moving over and placing his head on Emma's chest. Emma stroked through his dark hair. "I know it sucks, little man. You're being such a big brave boy." Just then, Neal started to heave before he threw up, all over Emma's shirt. He started to cry. Emma grabbed the damp hand towel she'd placed in the room and got Neal to sit up. "It's ok, buddy." She said soothingly, wiping away the vomit from his mouth. "See, you didn't even get any on yourself so you're alright." She said with an encouraging smile. Neal looked weakly at his sister's top as Emma helped him lie down again.
"Sorry." He mumbled. "Got sick on you." Emma shrugged.
"It's no big deal Neal. Just some puke. It'll wash off." She promised him. She leant down beside him. "This will all be over soon and you'll be well again, back to running around in no time. Just try and sleep just now. That's the best way to get better really quickly." She told him. Neal nodded, reaching out for her hand. Emma sat down and took it, she could change her top when he was asleep. Right now her baby bro needed her.
