Matt- sick

Matt is sick and Nick and Chris have to take care of him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chris's POV:
"Gosh you're so fucking stupid" Nick yelled at me, after I told him my opinion on birds. I chuckled before starting to attack him back. After about 3 minutes Matt interrupted us "OH MY GOD STOP YELLING MY HEAD HURTS" he shrieked as he covered his ears with his hands. "Bro stop being dramatic" I rolled my eyes at the boy and we continued filming the video. But Matt just didn't seem to be having it. The entire time he was staring outside the car window, shivering or leaning back against the drivers chair tiredly. But we decided to continue. "Okay next question... How do you feel about Lemon- ups?"

"Okay guys that's all for todays video! I hope you enjoyed, Matt kiss the camera" when he didn't respond I looked over my shoulder to see Matt holding his head in both hands. "Matt, dude you okay?" Nick asked. That seemed to bring him out of his trance. "Huh? Oh uh yeah I'm fine... just tired" he lied. I can always tell when he lies, I mean I'm his triplet? Of course I would know.

We just stopped the camera and Nick placed a hand on his forehead. "Jesus Matt! You're burning up!" Nick shrieked, pulling his hand back. I put my hand where Nick's just was and he was right. "Dude, are you okay?" I asked while trying to hide my worrying. "Can we just go home?" He asked. Nick and I nodded and Matt started the car. I kept an extra eye on him as we drove home. He was looking more and more pale every seconds that went by.

Nick's POV:
When we got home I followed Matt up to his room as Chris was getting in the shower. He quickly laid down on the bed and I placed a blanked over him. "You gonna be okay by yourself?" I asked. He just shrugged which I took as a no. I sighed before getting in and pulling him close. It was just a part of the life as a triplet. You had to look out for each other. "Go to bed, I'll wake you up in an hour, we'll see how you feel then" I smiled. He nodded and closed his eyes. During his sleep I could see the uncomfortable feeling resting on his face. Chris soon finished his shower and made his way into Matt's room. "How is he?" He asked while drying his hair. "I don't know, he's getting paler" I said, growing even more concerned. Matt was the one person who never got sick. Ever. So when he actually did, it was bad. "I'll go make him some soup if you stay with him" I said. Chris nodded and we switched places, Chris getting in bed with Matt and I was soon down in the kitchen making the poor boy some chicken soup.

I brought a bucket up as well when I finished making some soup. Matt was already awake and looking worse than ever. "I'm gonna puke" he gagged as he clapped a hand over is mouth. I quickly placed the bucket under his chin. Chris was stroking his hair back comfortingly as he brought up the last bit of vomit. The middle brother let out a cry as he leaned back against Chris's chest. "Poor boy" I sighed as I placed the bucked beside the bed. "Here, I made soup, if you don't want it right now you can just eat some later. I gotta go edit but Chris will stay with you alright?" I said sweetly. He nodded and closed his eyes. I leaned forward and placed a kiss on his forehead before closing the door behind me.
This was gonna be a looooong night.

•the next morning•

I woke up the next morning and my first thought was to check up on Matt. I grabbed the thermometer from our cabinet before making my way up to Matt's room. Chris was still in bed on the side of him and I was thankful for that. "Matty, wake up" I whispered. His eyes started opening slowly and I gave him a small smile. "You look like shit" I chuckled. Matt rolled his eyes at that "gee thanks". "Here, open" I said pulling out the thermometer. He obeyed and soon enough it beeped showing a glowing 103°F on the screen. I sighed before running my hand through Matt's hair. "You're gonna be okay, do you need anything?" I asked quietly. "Can you get me some tea please... and another blanket... and some painkillers... oh and-" I cut him off "Matt calm down, I'm getting everything you need" I laughed.
"Sorry... I just feel so bad! Nicky I want it to stop" he whined. I knew it was bad when he called me Nicky. He only ever does that when he's really scared. Or well, super sick.

I got Matt's stuff and made my way back upstairs. "Here, painkillers, three blankets, tea and bucket" I said almost out of breath from talking so fast.
"Thanks... love you" he mumbled. "I love you too, Matt. Now get some rest!" I ordered. He nodded before starting to slowly sip his tea.

Chris's POV:
When I woke up the next morning Matt was sleeping next to me, cuddled up to my side. I smiled before carefully sitting up, letting him snuggle into my thigh. I could see Nick was awake by the mess around us. A bunch of blankets, tissues and other things were thrown all around the room. I decided on letting Matt get some more rest so I just scrolled on my phone for an hour before he woke up for what I guessed 40th time. He kept waking me up in the middle of the night because he felt cold, hungry, or just sick in general. This was always how it was when Matt was sick. He was all needy, but it was fine. He always took care of Nick and i when we are sick. So we had to do the same for him. He deserved it. He deserves everything.

Matt's POV:
I woke up feeling worse than ever. "Chrissy?..." I whispered quietly. "Yes, Matt?" He replied sweetly. "Can I get a hug?" I asked. Chris just chuckled before wrapping his arms around me and patting my back. I felt like throwing up even more because of it, but i didn't mention it. We got interrupted when Nick opened the bedroom door, startling us both. "Good, you're awake. Medicine" he said. I rolled my eyes, knowing that I hated the taste of it. "Please no! It tastes so bad!" I whined. Chris and Nick both laughed out loud and I groaned before throwing my head in my pillow. "It's not funny! Leave me alone" I once again whined. "Okay okay, we're sorry, you're just so cute okay? You're always so serious, it's so weird seeing you like this" Nick said in between giggles.

After another thirty minutes I finally agreed on taking the medicine. Chris had me sat up against his chest as Nick had the spoon in front of me. "On three okay?" Nick said. I made a disgusted face, making the two laugh. I opened my and Nick placed the spoon in my mouth as Chris closed my mouth by pushing up by chin. I tried my best to swallow but it was just so disgusting. I shook my head aggressively but Nick just glared at me. "Swallow" he simply said. Gosh I hated being sick. I swallowed and stuck my tongue out. "Good boy. Now rest" Chris cooed. "I'm not even tired..." I tried to lie. I hate naps. Naps are for babies. And I'm NOT a baby! But when Chris and Nick laid down next to each other and motioned for me to go cuddle with them I couldn't hold it anymore.

It took Matt another 4 days to get good again, but at least he had his brothers by his side the whole time. He really did have the best brother in the world.
