With Newtmas 2

Loving a Crank part 5

THOMAS POV:

"We could swim. I have a indoor pool" said Newt. 

I looked at him confused. 

"I don't think I can't swim that well. My ankle is still sprained" I said. 

"You can float on a air mattress" said Newt. 

I got up and stood on my left foot. 

"Let's see if this actually works" I said. 

Newt got off the bed and stood up. He picked me up and carried me to the room with a inside pool. Some houses had them and I haven't really gone threw exploring the house.  Newt had some pool toys as well. But to be honest I can't use some of them like the diving sticks. Newt set me on the ground in front of the pool. He walked over to the pool toys and grabbed a inflatable pool floatie. It was suppose to be a watermelon. It was already blown up. Newt put the floatie in the pool and walked up to me. Newt picked me up and put me on the floatie. I can get my legs wet but not my back. I still have it wrapped up. Newt pushed the floatie into the middle of the pool. I kinda liked it in here. Newt swam up to me and floated with his arms on the floaty. 

"How is this room still clean" I asked. 

"I like to swim every day, I also know how to keep the pool clean" said Newt. 

I laid back and relaxed. The pool is actually calming. This would be more fun if I could swim and wasn't becoming a crank. My head started to hurt. Probably from the virus. I started rubbing my forehead. Newt held his breath and swam under me. I stopped and watched him come up on the other side.

NEWT POV:

I turned and looked at Thomas. I smiled. I wanted to try and make Thomas feel better since he is becoming a crank. Trust me it will get worse. However it stops when you are a full crank. Thomas winced in pain again. 

"You okay Tommy" I asked. 

"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME" Thomas snapped. 

Probably mood swings. Thomas relaxed. 

"Sorry Newt, I didn't mean to shout. It's just mood swings" said Thomas. 

"I know" I said. 

"I should probably rest" said Thomas. 

I pushed the floaty and walked to the stairs. I held the floaty and Thomas climbed off. I pushed the floaty away and got out. I got two towels from the towel bin. Thomas isn't soaked like me but he is a little wet. I unfolded the towel and put it around Thomas' shoulders. 

"Thanks Newt" said Thomas. 

I wrapped a towel around myself. I sat next to Thomas and air dried for a while. Thomas rested his head on my shoulder. I'm glad he doesn't think I will eat his flesh off. I wrapped my arm around Thomas and kissed his head. He smiled and drifted off to sleep. I waited till I was dry and carried Thomas inside. He was still asleep so I put him on the bed. I put some pillows and blankets under his right leg. It's actually healing a lot. I wounder if I have pain killer or if I need to go shopping for some. Even if I do the medicine won't slow down the virus but it will help with headaches. I grabbed a can of peaches from the kitchen and set it on the night stand with a spoon. I left it there in case Thomas is hungry when he wakes up. I left and headed to the store to see what medicine they have. Thomas should be fine while I am gone.
