You're not alone

Food poisoning

Alastors party went on for a few more hours, having laughs and remembering old times and sharing stories, Lucifer and Angel was in the kitchen working on dinner and he had convinced Angel to try one of his mom's recipes.
"Whats the worst that can happen?" Lucifer said with a light laugh. Angel finally nodded at this as he listed off ingredients from one of his moms old recipes for some brisket. Lucifer was trying to be supportive and help out with what he could as Angel tried his best on perfecting the recipe and making it like his mom's, in the end they brisket was a horrible disaster but trying to help cheer him up Lucifer took a few bites of it, he instantly regretted his choice as his brain was yelling at him to spit it back out, but seeing Angel's face looking at him hopeful and a bit disappointed fearing that it was a complete waste. Lucifer mustard all of his mental strength as he took a gulp sending the horrible tasting food down to his stomach as he forced on a smile.
"Its close..it just needs some work" he said as he watched Angel smile some.
"You think so?"
"Yeah totally...just need to add something to it" he said with a smile. As Angel started to smile more at this.
"Thanks short king...I thought I ruined the whole thing"
"Not far from it" Lucifer thought to himself but nodded as he moved out to the lobby now with the others. The party continued on as he sat by Alastor, things were going good at first but about an hour later his stomach was starting to flip and tie itself into knots as it was definitely not agreeing with the brisket, he was just glad no one else would have to try that abomination. By the second hour his forehead had a light layer of sweat on it but thankfully the party was over and everyone was heading towards bed for the night where he was hoping he could just get some sleep and things will smooth back out.
"You ok dear..look at bit pale?" Alastor asked as he took note of Lucifer's slightly slower pace.
"Oh I'm fine, just a bit warm is all, nothing some sleep won't fix" he said with a smile which seemed to satisfy Alastor as he nodded, both of then got to the room and changed and got ready for bed.
"So when are you gonna go see your mom babe?" Lucifer asked as he crawled into bed and pulled the blanket up. Breathing a little heavy but trying to think of something else now.
"I want to go as soon as possible..tomorrow even, I've been missing her so much and just to hear here, it's made me miss her even more" he said with a smile plastered on his face.
"Can't wait to meet the lady who made such a wonderful son"
"I can't wait for her to meet you either, goodnight love"
They both shared a kiss before falling asleep.
Alastor was brought from his nights sleep as his ears twitched, hearing some noises from the bathroom, looking over at the clock he saw it read 2:34 am. He laid there for a moment listening as it went quiet again but sat up in bed as a retching sound and then a thud was heard from the other room. Throwing the blanket off he quickly made his way to the bathroom before opening the door.
"Lucifer!" He cried out as he saw his beloved short king shaking on the ground as he had his arms wrapped around his stomach. Quickly moving over and getting down beside him he grabbed his arms and immediately took note of his body being boiling hot to the touch.
"Love talk to me..what's wrong" he asked, filled with worry as he tried to get to the bottom of this and why he just randomly got sick, he was fine and couple of hours ago.
"Nghgg...mmgaa.." was all he got as lucifer groaned out in pain. His body was still trembling as he clutched his stomach in pain.
"Your stomach I assume?" He asked as Lucifer managed a head nod.
"Is this related to earlier when you looked a bit pale?" He asked as he got another nod which made him sit there and think some as Lucifer's eyes shot opened and he tried to sit up, quickly realizing what was happening Alastor grabbed his arms and helped him sit up as he wrapped his arms around the toilet before trying to throw up again, unfortunately for him, all his stomach contents had been expelled his first 2 times so it left him gagging and trying to expel nothing, so only painful dry heaving which was cramping up all the muscles in his abdomen. Alastor was rubbing his back some trying to help out but there's really only so much one can do to help. Regardless Al stayed there with him as he continued to dry heave a few more times over the course of the next hour before finally finishing it seemed.
"Alright...let's get you to bed" Al said as he gently picked him up and carried him to bed. After gently laying him down he put a hand on his forehead feeling the heat pouring out of him.
"Can you talk yet?" He asked gently as he grabbed the blanket and draped it over him.
"Br...brisk...et" he muttered out as Alastor tried to figure out what he meant.
"We...didn't have brisket for dinner?" He said now with a confused look as he tilted his head down at him.
"A..angel..made one...bad.." he said before groaning and trying to curl up on himself again as his stomach cramped up.
"Just try and relax love" Al said as he pushed the matted hair off of his forehead.
"From the way it sounds you got food poisoning dear" Al said after a moment of thinking of it and the symptoms he currently had, he didn't know of any remedies or stuff that would help. So only thing there was to do was to wait for it to pass on its own. Looking at clock he saw that is was past 4am now, he continued to sit up with him and wait til morning before he sent Vaggie a text. A little later the door opened up and he held his finger up to his lips.
"Whats up dad?" She asked quietly as she walked over.
"Think you can watch him for a bit. He's got food poisoning from a brisket Angel made apparently" he said before Vaggie nodded. Alastor thanked her before heading out of the room and down the hallway to the elevator, on his way to the lobby. Walking in he scanned around the room looking for Angel but didn't see him before moving to the kitchen where he found Angel cooking.
"Hopefully you do better at this then you did last night" Alastor said in a accusing tone which threw Angel for a loop.
"I thought you said I did good last night!?" He asked now
"That was until I woke up to my husband throwing up everything he had"
"Lucifers sick?" Angel asked now worried about it.
"He is...said you made a brisket"
"I did...he convinced me to try and then i thought it was a total waste...so he tried it, I guess it was just to cheer me up now..." he muttered out at the end, hearing this Alastors face softened some. He should've known that Lucifer would do something like this to try and cheer him up. He was under the impression that Angel knew it was bad and did it as a prank or something.
"Well it found it's way back out and he's paying for it now...but it was clear it wasn't a ill intent plan, but we need to work on your cooking skills sooner rather later it seems" he said as Angel nodded some feeling bad about it now before feeling a hand on his shoulder.
"Dont beat yourself up over this, it's Lucifer, he'd do it again to make you feel better" he said with a small which did help Angel out some.
"Just try to not kill my husband next time" he said with a laugh to lighten the mood a little bit.
"Im gonna make his some soup if you wanna watch?" Al offered as Angel nodded quickly at this. Alastor gave him a quick run down on stuff and beginners lessons, feeling it was best just to start from scratch on everything.
A little later Alastor walked into the bedroom with some soup and water as he watched Vaggie swap out his rag for a fresh one.
"How's he doing?"
"Just a fever, his stomachs finally relaxed it seems" she said as she stood up now.
"Thanks sweetie, run along and go get some breakfast now" he said before she smiled at him and nodded, leaving the room as Al sat the tray down.
"Do you feel like eating anything?" Alastor asked as he got a slight nod.
"Why don't you just get ready to go?" Lucifer asked as he blew on the steaming spoonful of soup.
"Ready to go...what do you mean love?"
"Your mom..I thought you was going to visit her?" Lucifer asked curiously now before Al smiled some.
"I was planning on it...but I've gone this long without seeing her, my new family comes first..and right now one is sick, and I am not leaving your side until you are better my dear" he said with a soft smile, lucifer couldn't stop a smile of his own from forming as he listened to Al now.
"You just need to work on getting better soon my love. Then we will go and find my mother"
Lucifer nodded at this before letting out another soft groan and laying back down.
"Ho...hopefully soon" he said as he held the bowl up which Alastor grabbed.
"Better then nothing" Al said, glad he was able to eat something and now just hoping he can keep it down, but he was going to enjoy the soup himself for his breakfast now.
