Make a Wish || Rhett and Link

Chapter 27 - Movie's

"Who wants to watch a movie?" Rhett asked as we finished up our lunch. I don't know if he sensed that I was exhausted, but I'm glad he made the suggestion.

"Sounds good." I told him honestly. Shep smiled and nodded in agreement.

"FROZEN!" He shouted.

Locke groaned. "I'm not watching a movie."

"Yes, you are. You can come and spend some time with your family for once pumpkin!" Jessie said.

"Please don't call me that" Locke muttered.

"What do you want to watch?" Rhett asked.

"I don't mind. I'll probably fall asleep anyway." I admitted.

Rhett nodded. "Locke?"

"Anything but Frozen" Locke said.

"Why? What's wrong with Frozen?" Shep asked.

"What else?" Rhett asked. There was a few moments of silence.

"Wreck it Ralph?" Shep asked eventually.

"Yeah, that sounds alright." Jessie said. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Jessie and the boys went to the lounge room to find the movie. Rhett went to follow them, but I had to ask him something.

"Rhett, where, um, do you, uh, medication?" I asked awkwardly.

Rhett slapped his forehead with his palm. "Oh, right. Sorry Coop, I forgot."

"It's okay." I told him. "I would like to forget too, but my stupid head won't let me."

Rhett looked a little confused.

"I get headaches." I clarified.

"Oh, right. Well, here." Rhett said, pulling the various boxes and bottles down from the top cupboard. He flashed his eyebrows as he began reading the back and figuring out which ones I had to take. I helped him and after ten minutes, we ended up with a small pile of about 12.

"You have to take all of those? I think we counted wrong." Rhett said.

"No. This is right." I sighed.

Rhett handed me a glass of water and I downed the pills, 3 at a time. Rhett just stood there awkwardly.

"Well, that's done." I said when I was done.

"Do you want a lollipop or something to get rid of the taste?" Rhett asked me.

Truthfully, there was no aftertaste. But, I do like lollipops, so I nodded. Rhett smiled and grabbed me one from the cupboard. I smiled and we went to the living room and joined the rest of the family on the couch.

Jessie started the movie and I leaned back on the couch and began to fall asleep.

"Cooper, honey, that doesn't look very comfortable."

I opened my eyes and looked at Rhett.

"Here, you can lean on me if you want."

"You sure?" I asked.

Rhett pulled me close and I rested my head on his shoulder. It was a lot more comfortable. I guess that's why it only took me a few minutes to fall asleep.

*****Rhett's Point of View*****

Cooper had fallen asleep pretty quickly. Her little head was snuggled into my shoulder. I didn't want to move and wake her. I just focused on the movie.

The end credits began rolling down and Locke, Shep and Jessie all left. I was going to follow them, but Cooper was still sleeping on my shoulder. Jessie realised and came and sat back down next to me.
