Grayson had woken up that morning feeling slightly off--not sick but not totally okay either. His stomach was aching slightly, and moving caused him more discomfort. He sat on the edge of his bed and looked through his notifications. It was Saturday, and Ethan and him had made plans to get breakfast at a new Crepe restaurant that was in walking distance of their apartment. 

Grayson slowly got dressed, did his hair and brushed his teeth, and walked into Ethan's room, who of course was still asleep. 

"Bro wake up, we're going to that Crepe place today" Grayson said loudly, shaking his brother. He felt another twinge of pain from his abdomen, but ignored it and started lightly hitting Ethan in the face. 

"Ugh Gray what time is it?" Ethan asked groggily.

"Almost 10, now GET UP" Grayson replied, annoyed, flipping on Ethan's bathroom light switch and opening his window curtains. 

"Alright alright I'm getting up. Who put a stick up your ass?" Ethan muttered, tiredly rubbing his eyes and stretching.

Grayson didn't answer, and instead he went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water and take some Advil. His stomach was hurting more from all of the movement, and he figured it was just from eating too much last night. He realized he wasn't that hungry either, but he would never pass up breakfast food. 

15 minutes later Ethan and Grayson were finally out the door and walking to the Crepe restaurant. Ethan was trying to lighten the mood but noticed that Grayson was eerily quiet, and wasn't shy to call him out on it. 

"Bro what's wrong? You're acting weird today" 

"I'm just in a bad mood, sorry." Grayson replied, somewhat sheepishly. 

They arrived and were seated at a table after a 10 minute wait, and at that point Grayson was feeling even worse. His stomach was now bloated and cramped painfully, changing from a dull aching pain to an occasional sharp stabbing pain near his belly button. He had started to sweat, and the idea of eating made his stomach turn. 

The waitress came to take their order, and Ethan ordered a savory crepe with egg and bacon, and Grayson just asked for a side of fruit and water. Ethan shot him a look that said "wtf are you doing", but Grayson just shook his head. Once the waitress left Ethan pressed harder.

"So now you're not even going to eat? Seriously man what is up!?" 

"Ugh, I'm just not feeling good. I didn't want to say anything before, but it's gotten worse" Grayson said, grimacing as pain radiated through his abdomen. His undid the button on his jeans to help with his bloated stomach, and luckily that relieved some of the pain.

"What's didn't you say something? What gotten worse? What's wrong?" Ethan asked worriedly.

"My stomach is killing me, like really bad E" Grayson answered, putting his head down on the table. At this point he didn't care what he looked like; he was in terrible pain and felt worse than he had in a long time.

"Shit man, well maybe some food with help. Did you take any Advil?" 

Grayson nodded, but he knew that he wouldn't be able to eat. He started feeling increasingly nauseous, and was about to excuse himself to go to the bathroom just to see if he could throw up, when the waitress brought their food. 

He looked down at the food in front of him and crinkled up his nose. He closed his eyes and took deep, even breaths in through his nose and out through his mouth. By the time he opened his eyes back up, Ethan had already finished half of his crepe and was watching him closely. 

"You good?" he asked, cocking an eyebrow at his brother. 

"Yeah, I'm okay, for now. Can we get outta here?" Grayson asked with pain in his voice. 

"Sure bro, I'm almost done. Can you try eating a little bit? Maybe it'll help your stomach" Ethan offered. 

Grayson shook his head but picked up his fork and stabbed it into a piece of watermelon. He managed to eat 6 pieces of fruit (he was always good at pushing through pain) before his nausea returned. Soon after they got the check and Ethan quickly paid before he helped Grayson out of his chair. 

Once they were outside, Grayson finally let the full extent of how bad he was feeling show. He was lagging behind Ethan, practically doubled over, when he finally said "Ethan stop, I really need to sit down". 

Grayson sat down on the ledge of a small garden outside of a random apartment building, and leaned over, wrapping his arms around his knees. Ethan sat down next to him and placed one hand on his back, and started making slow circles. Graysons' back was sweaty and warm, but he didn't mind. His brother was in pain and needed him. He took out his phone to call his Mom for advice--he had never seen his brother in so much pain before, and he hated it. 

Grayson moaned and sat back up, before turning his head and suddenly projectile vomiting all over the bushes. Their mom answered as Grayson retched loudly and threw up again into the bushes. 

"Uh yeah hi mom, its Ethan. Grayson is really sick, he just started throwing up, yeah thats him in the background, but Mom he said his stomach really hurts. Yeah yeah, he's in a lot of pain. No, it was pretty sudden. He said it hurt but has gotten way worse. Emergency room? Now? Okay, okay, got it. Love you, thanks. I'll keep you updated". Ethan hung up the phone and turned his full attention back to his sick brother, who was still facing the garden, now panting at this point. He heaved forwards again, and Ethan had to stop him from toppling into the garden. 

Grayson's head was spinning as he threw up for the third time, and was thankful to have his brother comforting him as he saw his breakfast make another unwanted reappearance. 

"You're doing great Gray, you're almost done. I know this sucks bro, but you're doing so well" Ethan said as Grayson heaved one last time into the bushes. Once he was done, he leaned into his brother and clutched his abdomen. 

"Ethan please make it stop, make the pain stop, it hurts so much" he cried, tears spilling down his cheeks. 

"Don't worry Gray, I talked to Mom and she said we need to get you to an Emergency Room. Do you think you can make it back to the apartment?" 

"No I can't move, it hurtsssss" he cried. 

"Okay okay, I'm going to call for an ambulance then" Ethan said nervously. He had never called 911 before, and wasn't sure what the protocol was. 

Grayson didn't respond, and instead buckled over again and threw up onto the ground for the 5th time that day. Ethan continued to comfort him while Grayson was sick, even on the phone, and 15 minutes later an ambulance appeared and medics quickly got out of the ambulance. 

They took Graysons' vitals, and decided that he definitely needed to go the the ER. Grayson was loaded onto a gurney and carried into the ambulance. 

"Do you want to ride with your brother?" a female EMT asked. Ethan said "of course" and hopped into the ambulance. The doors closed and they were off to the hospital. Grayson was squirming in pain, and his eyes suddenly shot open as he gagged harshly. The other EMT was quick to respond with a blue emesis bag that he handed to Ethan, which he held it under Graysons' mouth as he got up another round of vomit. Meanwhile, the female EMT was inserting an IV Into Graysons' right hand, which she hooked up to fluids. Grayson threw up twice more during the 10 minute ride to the hospital before he passed out from the pain.
