OT5, Three Out Of Five (Part 2)

So this was requested too, so I'm writing this one before I get started on the next round of ships again... They will be back soon, the next one being a Randy one. ❤️❤️

I altered some parts of the request to make it fit better, but I hope it's alright? ❤️

Anyway... Enjoy!!!

Brooklyn

Jack, Mikey and I were mostly recovered three days later, and it was clear to us that both Andy and Rye were not feeling their best.

I wouldn't be surprised if they'd become ill, seeing as they'd spent the last few days looking after us.
But both were stubborn, and moreso was Rye.

So, yeah... the next few days were interesting to say the least.

"Andy... stay home today. The studio can wait alright?" I pleaded with my boyfriend. But he wasn't budging, no matter how many times either me, or Mikey, or Jack took him aside separately. He'd just laugh it off, or brush it off, and continue getting ready to leave.

"I'm fine Brooky... just a bit under the weather, but I'll be fine by later. I promise... and it's not stopping me from doing my work." Andy said with a frustrated sigh.

I could kind of understand... the three of us had been kinda pestering him for the last twenty minutes (ever since he'd woken up really) and I could see that he was getting more and more wound up.
We'd hoped that he'd eventually snap and stay home.
So far that hadn't happened... and it looked like it wouldn't.

Mikey had already given up, I guess because he knew Andy on a different level to me and Jack. See, even though we had the five of us in one relationship, there were still the old relationships within it. Which helped in some areas, but not so much in others.

"Babe... your eyes haven't stopped watering for the past ten minutes... and I can't even count how many times you've sneezed. Please stay home." I cupped his cheeks with my hands and kissed his forehead softly. I heard him sigh, but not out of frustration. It was more out of love than anything.

"Honestly... I'll be fine. It's just singing right? I can do that." He sniffed with a small smile. I guess my face must've dropped, because he quickly carried on. "Look... when we get back you can cuddle me all you want. Deal?" Andy wiped his eyes, and I felt a smile creep across my face.

"Deal." I kissed his lips then, before pulling him into a hug.

"But only if you let me be as I get done what I need to get done." He reminded me, and I nodded into his shoulder.

This was the best offer the three of us would get.

I hated that fact that he hated being looked after. Thinking about that, so did Rye... where was Rye?

"Has anyone seen Rye yet this morning?" I called out to the boys. We were all in the Mindy room, so I didn't need to shout.

"No... he hasn't come out of his room since last night. He slept alone remember? Said he wanted some space." Jack replied, and I frowned.

"I'm going to check on him." I decided after a few seconds hesitation. I kissed Andy one last time, making sure he was seated on the sofa firmly before I walked over to the Rarvey room. Swallowing the dread that rose in my throat I knocked softly, thinking that maybe he'd just be having a quiet morning. But there was no response. I waited, and waited... and waited...
