Roadtrip oneshots (boy x boy)

~ In the Dark ~

A/N: My latest youtube video at the top/to the side :)

Andy's POV:

Although this bed is only meant for one, I always feel lonely when I lay in it. Obviously that feeling is magnified now because I'm ill and the boys have gone out to get food without me. They offered to bring some back for me but I told them not to bother because I can't keep anything down at the moment. Understandably, the boys have been keeping their distance from me lately because they don't want to catch whatever I have but it's sad not being able to be near any of them.

I've been sleeping in Rye and Harvey's room because Harvey's still away and Rye's sleeping in my bed so I have the room to myself.

I spend the day on Instagram, commenting on and liking some fans pictures and sending a couple of people a dm but after a while I start to get tired and put my phone away. I put on my uggs, dressing gown and eye mask and light my scented candle, making sure some soothing music is playing before I roll over and drift asleep.

Rye's POV:

Me and the boys have gone out to get some food but all I can really think about is Andy. He's at home ill and none of us are there with him, even though I offered to stay. I've really wanted to comfort him so many times these last couple of days when he hasn't felt well but the boys told me to keep clear and I don't want them or Andy finding out that I like him.

He told us not to get him any food but I've bought him something small anyway because he hasn't been eating lately. I think the other boys are worried too, they just haven't said anything. We're going home now anyway so I'll be able to check up on Andy quickly and leave him his food for the morning in case he wants it.

Andy's POV:

I was sleeping fine until I woke up with a really bad stomach ache. I feel like I'm being repeatedly punched in the stomach and the pain is too much to handle. I don't feel like being sick but I'm definitely still not well and the pain causes me to start sobbing quietly.

I'm glad the boys aren't here at the moment, I don't think I'd be able to cope with them seeing me like this. I always try to look strong for the boys and our fans but sometimes its just too hard. Don't get me wrong I don't cry often, but sometimes it just happens because everything becomes too much. Obviously right now I'm not crying for that reason though, its more of a mixture of pain and feeling weak.

I roll back over, clutching my stomach and try to get back to sleep, tears streaming down my face and small sobs escaping my mouth.

Rye's POV:

When we finally get back, I go straight to Andy's room to make sure he's ok. When I look in he seems to be asleep which I'm glad about because he definitely needs some rest, but as I go to close the door I hear an almost silent sob leave his lips and I start to tear up myself.

I walk quietly into the room and put his food down on the table, closing the door behind me. As I reach the side of the bed I crouch down and whisper to him, "Andy, please don't cry". I know It's probably not the most helpful thing to say but I'm not very good in these situations.

He rolls over to look at me and his face is wet with tears. "Rye, you can't be this close to me. I don't want you getting whatever I have. Please go." He says through his light sobs and my heart breaks as I listen to this beautiful, stupid boy put my health over his pain.

"Move over, babe" I say, ignoring the babe part and hoping that he doesn't notice it. He looks hesitant at first but then he moves over on the bed and I climb in next to him. He rolls over to face me and goes to say something before his face scrunches up and he grits his teeth together, letting out a loud groan.

Andy's POV:

My stomach feels 100 times worse now but Rye is with me and I don't want him to think I'm weak. Anyone but him. I wrap my arms tightly around my stomach as if that would help and then I feel Rye's hand on my stomach too.

He rolls me over so my back is to him and then he carefully pulls me towards him so that he is the big spoon. He then proceeds to slowly rub my tummy in circles while whispering in my ear about how everything is going to be ok. And even though I'm in immense amounts of pain right now, all I can do is believe him because for right now at least I am in his arms.

Rye's POV:

When I wake up, I forget where I am for a second until I feel Andy in my arms and I remember last night. I blush first but then I slowly unwrap myself from around him and climb off of the bed, leaving the room to get ready for the day and heat up Andy's food in case he wants it. 

When I get back to my room I climb back into bed with Andy, careful not to wake him, and wrap my arms back around him. I hope he doesn't wake up for a while so that I can spend a little more time hugging him before he gets better and doesn't need my cuddles anymore. That sounds selfish I know but what can I say? I'm in love with this boy.

Andy's POV:

I wake up to the feeling of arms around my waste and quickly sit up right, not knowing what's going on. When I look to my left I see Rye smiling sheepishly at me and I blush before lying back down next to him. I roll over so we're almost nose to nose and give him a small smile.

"Sorry about that, I was out of it for a second" I chuckle quietly as we're so close together.

"That's ok Andy" He smiles and looks away from me for a second before clearly remembering something and continuing "Oh! How are you feeling? I made you some food in case you were hungry! I know you said not to get you anything last night but I just felt so bad because we were going out and you couldn't because you were ill and I didn't want you missing out. I'm sorry I climbed into your best last night I heard you crying and I just couldn't leave you in here on your own when you were clearly in pain. I mean I'm not sorry if you get what I mean, like I'm not sorry for trying to help you I'm just sorry for invading your person space and I wa"

I stop him from rambling his stupid nonsense any further by covering his mouth with my hand and giggling about how stupid this boy in front of me is.

"Just shut up Rye" I laugh as he licks my palm and I pull my wet hand away in fake disgust.

"Ok, ew. But I'm feeling a lot better thanks and I'm kind of glad you came and cuddled me last night. It really helped and it was nice considering everyone's being keeping clear of me the last few days" I blush and then sigh at the last part and then look Rye in the eyes as he starts to speak again.

"Babe, I never wanted to avoid you, the boys just thought it would be best and I listened to them because I'm a coward and I didn't want them knowing I like you" Realisation is obvious in his eyes but before he can say anything else I kiss him like I've wanted to since we first joined the group.
