Sick Branch

Cooper

If he's being honest, he has no idea what he's doing.

And how is he even supposed to help Branch?

The poor guy is sick!

Cooper bit his lip as Branch whimpered again.

"Okay, okay, I hear you, man..."

Branch whined and rolled over, now laying face down.

Cooper sighed, he can't tell if Branch is pouting or crying into the carpet.

He loafed next to Branch, "Hey, man..it's okay, come here.." he said softly.

Branch looked up and he winced, crying then.

"Branch, how about you lay on me? It might make you feel better.."

Branch thought about it then nodded, crawling on top of Cooper who stayed in his loaf position.

Branch cuddled up to him and gripped his fur loosely.

Cooper smiled at him and stood up, he decided to take a walk to try and tire Branch out.

He walked out of his pod with Branch clinging to his back, quietly speaking with anyone who stopped him.

As Cooper walked around he would look back to check on Branch, normally seeing his eyes half open.

But this time his eyes were closed, and he smiled, "Finally asleep, little buddy?" He mumbled to himself.

He may not be an expert on caring for sick people, but at least he knows enough to handle Branch.
