Ok listen people, I do try, but I'm so sorry for not updating. I have been facing medical issues and stress and just a whole bunch of work. So I'm very sorry but I just can't make a schedule because I really cannot follow one. Believe me, I've tried. On with the story! Ain't it ironic that I'm writing this while I'm sick? Anyway, ignore me and my dumb self, ON WITH THE STORY!!!

"Shakes, that's the gazillionth time you've sneezed now. Are you sure you're okay?" North asked worriedly as Shakes went into another sneezing fit in the changing rooms.
It was just after a training session and Shakes had been sneezing the whole time. His voice was hoarse and he was trembling ever so slightly. Come to think of it, thought North, he didn't look too good yesterday either...
"I'm fine guys, chill," Shakes said, standing up and walking unsteadily out of the changing rooms. Once he left, North raised an eyebrow and looked at the rest of the team. "Put your hand up if you don't believe him,". Everyone's hand shot up, Tiger and El Matador raising both arms.
North sighed. "Who lives closest to him?" Cool Joe and Tiger raised their hands. "Okay you two go check on him either tonight or tomorrow morning. Is that okay?" Cool Joe nodded, "We'll go tonight," North nodded, "Ok then,"

"Shakes? It's us, me and Cool Joe. Can you open up please?" Tiger asked gently, knocking on the door softly and sending a worried glance to Cool Joe when they heard wet coughs on the other side.
"Coming...," said a hoarse voice. Tiger heard shuffling on the other side, then the door opened with the chain on. "I don't wanna get you guys sick...," "Shakes it doesn't matter we have masks can we come in?" Cool Joe said quickly. "Ok...," Shakes said and opened the door fully. Cool Joe and Tiger gasped. "Shakes," Tiger murmured, "You look..." "You look like death," Cool Joe put it bluntly.
I mean, he wasn't wrong.
Kid maybe didn't look exactly like death.
More like death warmed over.
Yeah, that's it.
Shakes was shaking, sweat beaded on his forehead. His skin was clammy and under the tan, Tiger could see that he was pale as well. A blanket was wrapped around his shivering form and coughs racked his skinny body.
Cool Joe saw Tiger give shakes an unimpressed look and put his hands on his hips and groaned. 'Mother Tiger activated' he thought tiredly. "You, mister, need to stop pushing us away. How long have you been sick?" demanded Tiger, sheperding Shakes back into his apartment.
" I'm fi-"
"You say I'm fine and I'll show you exactly why my name's Tiger."
"..."
"..."
"...Did Tiger just threaten me?"
"Wow, never thought he'd do that to you,".
"I know, right?"
"Wow,"
"Wow,"
Tiger rolled his eyes and huffed exasperatedly. "Just get on the couch,". "Alright, alright. Man are you persistent. Just let me feed Glacia first-,"Shakes went into a coughing fit, doubling over as the force became too much for him to handle. Tiger rubbed his back, looking concerned and murmuring reassuring words while Cool Joe walked into the living room and and plumped the pillows. He heard the pattering of feet and turned to see Glacia watching him curiously. Cool Joe smiled softly,"Hey girl," he cooed, putting a hand out,"Come 'ere girl,". She padded over, nudging him with her cold black nose before turning her head to Shakes, who was now sagging on Tiger, looking exhausted. "Yeah," Cool Joe whispered,"I know he's sick Glacia. But were going to help him get better, ok?" Glacia whined and nudged him again, before walking over to where Shakes was coming over. She leant on his legs to stabilise him when he wobbled.
Shakes looked down at his husky friend, smiling at her when she looked up with those blue-green eyes. "Thank you girl," Shakes said to her, laughing when she wagged her tail and put her paws o his shoulders as he knelt down onto the couch. He missed the fond looks Cool Joe and Tiger were giving him as he pulled the blanket up. He patted the patch of empty couch next to him and Glacia jumped up, barking joyfully. Shakes winced, putting his hands over his ears. " Easy girl, let's quiet down. Your partner has a headache," Tiger whispered, Glacia looked at him inquiringly, then looked back at her human friend, who was now grimacing in pain. She whined and nidhed her head against Shakes. Shakes laughed quietly." I'm fine, you silly dog," he muttered in Glacia's floppy, sliky ear. She pushed her head under his neck and seemed content to just lay there. Shakes laughed again.'Stupid dog' he thought closing his eyes.....
"Shakes....."
" Fever.....What?.....39.2C......Food.....Needs it...Wake....sure....,"
"Shakes...buddy come on,"
Shakes groaned and buried his face in the pillow. He heard a chuckle and felt a soft grip on his shoukder, shaking him gently. His face was dripping with sweat...
Wait...
"Eww, Glacia, that's gross," Shakes yelped as he sat up, wiping his face pushing the dribbling dog away from him. He groaned as his headache and sore throat hit him full on. The chuckling stopped immediately and he felt the Cool Joe push him back ontot he couch. "Eay brother, you need rest. And food. What do you want to eat?" Shakes immediately replied,"Chicken noodle soup," Tiger snorted from his place in the kitchen and replied,"Coming right up!" Shakes smiled as he snuggled further into the blanket.
He really loved his family.
"WOOF!"
And his dog.
AN- Hey y'all! As mentioned above, I am sick and those are my current symptoms as well. I also love chicken noodle soup when I'm sick so I've basically inserted my sock life into this fic! Does anyone want a chappie from Glacia's POV? Just a thought. If you do, pleas tell me and don't forget to comment! Love ya!
