They turned to see Fritz running to them.
Mike stopped to horse and let Fritz catch up. "Heard you were chatting it up with the supplier." Mike teased.
"What,NO!How did you even know!"
"Jeremy."He smirked and eyed Jeremy mischievously. "WHAT!" Jeremy said defensively " Oh yeah Jeremy got here first you have to walk Fritz." Mike said.
"Okay.I was gonna go and ask Scott something anyway so ill be home late so.. yeah"
"Okay i'm gonna go take Jeremy home now see ya later." Mike replied and kicked the horse.

That night mike was awoken with a loud raspy sound.
"What the shit was that." He groaned and half sat up and looked across the room to see Jeremy on the opposite bunk bed sitting up and coughing trying to catch his breath.
Mike shot up and swiftly walked over to him.
"Jeremy what's wrong can you breath." His voice thick with worry.
Jeremy coughed for awhile longer then caught his breath. "I-im fine." He stuttered.
"No your not, don't lie!" Mike scolded holding the thick worry. He put his hand on his forehead." Your burning up bad." He told him. " I feel like f-feel like b-bloody snow!" He shivered and leaned into mikes side. "Come on." He said grabbing Jeremy's hand and helping him into the loft where he sat him down in front of the small fire and left.
He came back with a small bowl. " Here." He shoved it front of him.
Jeremy gingerly took it and scrunched up his face. "What is it?" He asked
"Willow bark now eat it!" Mike ordered. Jeremy put the bowl up to his face and drank it as fast as he could trying to ignore the taste. "Gross." "It'll make you better, You still cold?" He asked seeing Jeremy shivering still "A little."
"Come on." Mike helped him up and went back to the bedroom. He wrapped his arms around his waist and laid him down. "Mike! This is awkward!" Jeremy hissed but snuggled his back closer up to mikes chest. "It's fine just try to sleep." Mike yawned listening to the soft breaths of the smaller framed man. It didn't take long for Jeremy to get lost in the heartbeat and larger breaths that belonged to mike and fall asleep.

Fritz came home later that night to see mike wrapped around Jeremy tightly and watching him sleep. Fritz tiptoed over to his bed, took off his shirt and crawled in. He turned to look at mike and wolf whistled which caused Mike to look up angrily "HES SICK!" He spat. "Yeah, yeah I believe you." Fritz laughed quietly. "Oh yeah Scott wants us to come to his place on a small hunt for whatever is eating his livestock." "What?" Mike questioned
"Yeah its pretty brutal but you'll see tomorrow. I'm going to bed, night."
Mike spent the rest of the night thinking about what he said about attacks scared to face what was going to happen tomorrow. A lot of attacks were happening so he feared for Jeremy and Fritz.
