Lucas sat in his bed with his whole body hot and his nose stuffed. Lucas was also forcing himself to stay awake. Claus and his parents had gone out to do their normal daily things; school or work. Ness vowed to skip school and help Lucas, against the knowledge of either family, however. That's what Lucas was doing, he was waiting. There was a knock at the door and Lucas shot off the bed, but then he instantly regretted it. He gagged slightly but was able to keep anything that was trying to come up to go back down. "Blergh…." He shook his head and walked out of the room with a disgusted face. He saw Ness through the door's window waiting for him. He opened the door. "Thanks for coming," Lucas said with a very deep voice, going against his normal rather high pitched voice. Ness kind of liked how deep it was so it made him blush slightly.

"You don't look so hot," Ness said as he stepped into the house. Lucas shrugged as he shut the door. "You know what you are sick with?"

"I dunno, but I don't really care right now." Lucas gave a large yawn as he started slowly walking toward his room. But how he was stumbling, Ness could tell just to what extent he was sick. "All that matters is that I won't die apparently."

"That's good," Ness started following. Lucas entered his room.

"That's debatable." Lucas walked over and sat on his bed. Ness got to the doorway and saw how messy Lucas's room was, which only solidified how sick he was. Lucas hated it when his room was messy. Lucas even spent five hours cleaning Ness's entire house when he first went.

"Did you already take medicine?"

"Mhm….that's why I'm so sleepy." Ness went over and sat next to Lucas.

"Why don't you go to sleep then?"

"Cause I don't wanna…." Lucas whined.

"You're so picky, you know that?" Lucas giggled. He then laid his head on Ness's lap. Ness grew panicked. He was currently going through a situation and was hoping he could hide it, but he knew he couldn't anymore. "Wh-what're you—"

"Ness?"

"Y-yea?"

"Why is your dick hard?" Ness's heart started beating very fast and he started sweating.

"W-well….y-you see…." Lucas picked his head up and gave a smug yet tired look to Ness. "S-sorry."

"Hehe, don't be so hard on yourself?" Ness's face grew blank as he tilted his head.

"Was that pun on purpose?" Lucas winked as he stuck out his tongue slightly, making Ness's heartbeat race even faster. Ness shot his head around to hide his blush.

"Nessy?" Ness looked back at Lucas. "Can you cook me food?"

"Sure, what do you want to eat?"

"You already know."

"I guess." Ness stood up and patted Lucas's thighs. "Try not to fall asleep while I'm gone."

"No promises." Ness chuckled as he left the room.

A few minutes later Lucas started growing restless and the heat in his body didn't slow down. He stood up and started to slowly walk out of the room. He soon made it into the kitchen and saw Ness at the stove. Seeing Ness do his bidding made Lucas happy. Lucas walked over to Ness and placed his head on his back. Ness shot his head back. "Lucas?"

"Mmmm, Nessy, I'm hot…."

"You're more on the cute side than hot." Lucas looked up with a serious face. Ness looked back at the stove and cleared his throat. "Don't worry, your omelet will be doon soon." Lucas smirked. He wrapped his arms around Ness's body, making Ness's body tingle. He soon melted in the comfort of Lucas's arms. Despite thinking about Lucas's comfort, Ness was still able to flip the omelet. Ness finally felt how hot Lucas was. "Jeez, you're very warm." All he heard were calm breaths as a response. Ness looked back and saw that Lucas had fallen asleep. "Ugh, what did I say about falling asleep."

Ness turned the stovetop off and patted Lucas's hands. "Come on, wake up." Lucas's eyes fluttered open and he looked up.

"Oh, s-sorry Nessy."

"No worries, go sit down, I'll bring the food."

"I wanna eat in my room."

"Alright, see you there." Lucas nodded and let go of Ness, despite neither wanting that. Lucas walked over to his room and instantly collapsed into it. The heat in his body started to grow, but he wasn't sure if it was all from his illness. It didn't take much longer for Ness to make it into Lucas's room. "Don't tell me you're asleep again." Lucas picked his head up and looked back at Ness. "Alright, good. Sit up." Lucas did as he was told. He gave a large yawn as Ness placed the plate onto the table close to the bed. Lucas's eyes lit up as he saw the perfect cheese omelet.

"Woah, Nessy, you made it how I like it!" Ness chuckled as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Well, you're sick so I thought 'screw it'." Ness was holding a fork but when Lucas reached for it, Ness pulled it back. "As I said, you're sick. I won't allow you to eat yourself."

"I'm not, I'm trying to eat that," Lucas pointed at the omelet. Ness held a straight face.

"You know what I mean."

"So you're gonna feed me?" Ness shrugged.

"Unless you don't want me to." Lucas's face started to blush. "I take that as a 'Please feed me Nessy?'" Lucas rolled his eyes.

"J-just hurry it up." Ness chuckled as he cut a small piece of the omelet off and stabbed it with his fork. He sat closer to Lucas and held the fork up.

"Open wide," Ness happily said. Lucas's blush grew as he opened his mouth and stuck his tongue out. Ness moved the fork into Lucas's mouth for him to bite down and for Ness to pull the fork out.

"T-this is—"

"Shshshsh, you should know it's improper to talk with your mouth full." Lucas couldn't help but grin. Ness was able to feed Lucas the rest of the omelet.

Ness placed the plate on the table and heard Lucas sneeze. Ness turned around. "Lukey?"

"I-I'm fine," Lucas said as he rubbed his nose. Ness sighed.

"No, you're not. You seem to just be getting worse," Ness said as he walked back to Lucas. Ness sat on the bed and forced Lucas to lay down. He then placed his hand on Lucas's forehead. "Yeah, you're burning up."

"I-I s-said I'm f-fine…" Ness retracted his hand but continued looking at Lucas.

"You didn't take your medicine, did you?" Lucas's eyes just lowered, answering Ness's question. "Lukey…..You were supposed to take your medicine, that's why you're worse than before."

"B-but"—Luas gave a large sneeze—"I-I d-don't like….P…." Lucas's entire composure started collapsing. It was clear his illness was getting the better of him. Ness grabbed Lucas's hand and grew worried. He wasn't all too worried before because he thought Lucas took his medicine but seeing as he didn't and he's getting worse, he's just worried.

"I know you don't like pills, but you could get seriously sick if you don't." Lucas started shivering which made him ball up on the bed. Ness stood up from the bed and looked at the sick boy. Ness found the bottle of pills on Lucas's dresser and grabbed them.

Sorry, Lukey, this is for your own good.

Ness grabbed a pill and placed it into his mouth. He walked back to Lucas's balled up and shivering body. He grabbed Lucas's feet and pulled them, straightening Lucas up. Lucas looked at Ness with a sickly confused face. "N-N-Ness?" Ness smirked as he crawled on top of Lucas. He rubbed Lucas's blushed and hot cheek before colliding his lips into Lucas's. Lucas almost instantly melted into the kiss, even putting his hand on the back of Ness's head. During the kiss, Ness used his tongue to push the pill down Lucas's throat. Despite doing that, he kept the kiss going despite Lucas not wanting to since he felt the pill. Once Ness felt comfortable that Lucas properly swallowed the pill, He picked his head up.

"Your mouth feels nice."

"T-t-the hell?" Lucas said, wanting to slap Ness but didn't have the strength to at that point.

"You needed to take the pill. I helped you, that's all." Ness started crawling back, but right before he got off the bed, Lucas grabbed Ness's arm.

"Th-th-that's all?" Ness looked into Lucas's sick eyes. Ness knew what Lucas meant by what he said.

"O-ok, maybe I wanted an excuse to kiss you." Lucas was able to put on a smile.

"S-sleep w-with me." Ness's face exploded in blush.

"W-what!?" Lucas started tugging at Ness's arm. Ness couldn't help but allow Lucas to have his way. Lucas pulled Ness up to him and into a tight hug. Lucas's heat warmed Ness's body and made it seem nothing could make Ness cold again. He smiled as he wrapped his arms around Lucas's body. While he felt the heat, he also felt comfortable. "I'm probably gonna be sick as shit later." Lucas giggled into Ness's ear. It was a tired giggle, but Ness loved any giggle that came from Lucas's mouth. "Better be prepared for more kisses after you're done dying or whatever."

"I-is t-that supposed t-to be a good t-thing?"

"...ouch…."
