The next morning, Luke is the first to wake, not feeling too well. He sits up in his bed, which he is sharing with Ashton. He takes a sip of water from his bottle on the bedside table before looking over at the other three, who are still asleep. He sighs and leans back, trying to relax despite the painful churning sensation in his stomach. After a few minutes he feels his dinner from the night before begin to come up and he rushes to the bathroom, kneeling down next to the toilet.

Luke was trying to be quiet as he didn't want wake up the others, but apparently, his stomach had other ideas. He gagged and with one heave, his dinner came barreling up his throat, determined to make an appearance to the world again. Sadly, this woke up Michael, and he came rushing into the bathroom.

"Aw, buddy!" Michael said sympathetically as he rubbed circles on the younger boys back.

"Go... away! You're sick!" Luke insisted.

"Nah. I feel better now." Michael assured him, which was true.

Luke continued to get sick for about 10 more minutes, and Michael didn't actually know what to do or how to help other than by rubbing circles on his back, but that just helped calm Luke down. Then, an idea clicked in his brain. Ashton! He was basically an older brother to the other three. He would definitely know what to do. He walked through to where Ashton was sleeping, and shook him awake.

"Ash, mate? Luke needs you, he is sick!" Ashton opened one eye, and then they went wide with concern.

"What?" Ash exclaimed, getting up and running to Luke. He kneels down next to him and check that he is finished, which he is. He picks Luke up, who is now half asleep once again, and takes him over to the beds, placing him down next to Calum. Once Luke is under the covers he is a dead weight, asleep before Ashton can check his temperature.

"Mikey." Ashton calls to Michael, who is still in the bathroom, cleaning around the toilet.

"Yeah, Ash?" Michael yells back.

"Can you come here for a second? I need to check your temperature." Ashton calls back, grabbing the thermometer from the bedside table.

"Yeah, sure." Michael says, placing down his cleaning things and coming into the bedroom. Ashton puts the thermometer in Michael's mouth once he sits on his bed and waits for it to beep. He pulls it out once it does and sees that Michael's temperature has gone down from 103.7 to 100.2. 

"Ah, that's better. At least I'm not on my own." Ashton sighs in relief.

"Mm. Yeah." The pair waited in silence for a bit, until they heard one of the pair moving about.

"I suppose it's time to give them medicine." Ashton decided.

"Yeah. ok then." Mikey agreed. The two walked into the bedroom, to see Luke sleeping peacefully, and Calum awake, though he still seemed really tired.

"Hey, Cal. How are you feeling?" Ashton asked quietly while Michael went to wake up Luke. He felt bad waking him up. As Luke looked so peaceful.

"Worse." Calum replied weakly.

"Luke, wake up." Michael said shaking Luke slightly.

"Mmm...No general penguin.... I'm sorry that I disappointed you...Please don't tell my mum. She will be angry at me... NO!!" Luke woke up panting. By now, everybody was looking at him, confusedly, and he started to get fidgity and awkward. "Um, doesn't matter." Luke said, looking away.

"Whatever goes through your head I don't understand, Lukey boy." Ashton said.

"Anyway, now you're awake, medicine time!" Michael said, holding up the medicine bottle.

"NO!!" both sickly boys hid under the duvet.

"Yes. come on. Open up." Ashton said as the two emerged from the warm covers. Both decided they were too weak to protest, and obliged, Ashton giving Calum some, and Michael giving Luke some. "There we go, all done" Ashton smiled.

"Now, get some sleep." Michael said softly whilst he and Ash walked out the door. But just as the pair were nearly out, they heard a small, "Mikey" and a whimper. The two turned around just in time to see Luke throw up all over himself and the sheets.

"Aw, Lukey." Mikey says, just as Calum runs out the door, Ashton following. "Aw, bud! C'mon, let's get you cleaned up." Mikey helps Luke out of bed, while they can hear Calum retching from down the hallway. The sound makes Luke bend over, when Michael is quick to react by shoving a bucket under the younger boys chin, as sick expels from his mouth.

"I don't want anymore medicine." Luke whimpers.

"Ok, buddy." Michael says, changing Lukes top and putting him into his bed, with a bucket. "Now get some sleep, Lukey." He says as Ashton comes back with Calum, putting him with Luke again. And they are both out like a light.

"Calum isn't going to allow any more medicine into his system after that." Ashton informs Michael with a small sigh.

"Neither is Luke." Michael tells him. The two boys lay down on the other bed, grabbing their phones out. They watch youtube, reply to fans on twitter and 'fangirl' on their secret fan accounts. After about 2 and a half hours, Ashton hops out of bed, earning a confused look from Mike.

"Gonna make some soup. They need something to eat, even if it is just to throw it back up." Ashton clarifies and Michael nods, going back to his phone. Ashton goes to the kitchen and opens up the fridge to see what they had. After not seeing anything useful he looks around the kitchen and sees a shopping bag on the bench. He goes over and looks into it, finding 5 cans of tomato soup. He's a little confused but figures that one of the crew gave it to them.

He puts the soup in the largest pot he can find and turns the stove on, warming it up. He goes back to the bed and watches what Michael is doing. After 20 minutes Ash gets up again and turns the soup off, transferring it into three bowls as he was a little peckish as well. He knew Mike was as well but he also knew Michael hates anything to do with tomatoes, well, pure tomatoes.

He goes back into the bedroom to see that Michael had woken the two sickly lads up. One less job he needed to do. He handed the two lads their soup, getting a weak 'thanks' from both in reply. The two boys begin to eat the soup and Ashton is surprised, he thought they would put up quite a fight, but they must be quite hungry. They both manage to finish half a bowl and Michael takes the bowls back to the kitchen to wash while Ashton finishes his serve.

Just as Ashton finishes his soup, the bowl is ripped from his hands. Ashton looks up to see Calum throwing up in the bowl. Ashton moves next to him and rubs his back, shouting for Michael to come back with a bin. Michael rushes in and grabs the bin next to the door, which was empty, chucking it to Ashton. Ashton catches it and swaps it out for his bowl, which he passes to Michael to wash.

Eventually Calum finishes throwing up and Michael takes him to the bathroom to brush his teeth before returning him to his place on the bed next to Luke. The two sickly singers cuddle together and fall asleep in a position that is just too cute for Ashton not to photograph. He posts it to the band Twitter with the caption "Get some rest Cake! You need it :)".
