reece woke up the next day with a headache.
he felt ill.
one minute he was in bed, the next he was in the bathroom being sick over the toilet.
lexi stole reece's phone without him realising.
she decided to text blake.

bubs: blake? it's lexi
reece feels bad
he's being sick in the bathroom
i think he needs u

lovie: lex?
i'm on my way over now
with medicine and soup
and cuddles

blake jumped out of bed and threw on some sweats and a hoodie.
he warmed up some soup and put it in a container.
he then drove to the shops and bought some medicine along with a few other bits and bobs.
as he got out of the car, lexi opened the front door.

"blake!"
she smiled, running over.

"hey lex.. is he doing okay?"

"he's in the bathroom in his room"
she whispered and took his hand.
blake picked up the bag and went inside the house.
he rushed up the stairs and went to reece's room.

"bubba?"

"m here.."
reece's voice came quietly from the bathroom.
blake walked inside and immediately sat next to him.

"oh baby.."
blake whispered as he stroke reece's hair gently.
he got the medicine out of the bag with a bottle of water.
"take this for me okay little one?"

reece nodded and took the medicine, smiling weakly at blake.
"how come you're here..?"
he mumbled, wiping his mouth and flushing the toilet.

"lexi text me that you were ill.."
blake smiled and helped him get up.

"i'm fine blake, it's probably from dinner last night"
reece shrugged, holding onto blake's arm tightly.

"but you don't feel good and i wanna be here for you"
blake picked him up, carrying him back into his bedroom, laying him on the bed.

reece smiled a little more, looking up at the taller boy.
"cuddles?"
he asked softly.
blake quickly laid next to him, pulling the boy into his arms.

"you're so cute reece"
blake kissed his forehead gently, watching as the older boy began to blush.

"shut up"

"oh so you're well enough to be a meanie?"

"noooo blakeeeee"
reece pouted and looked up at him.
blake chuckled and kissed his pout.
just as lexi walked in.

"ewie"
she giggled and jumped onto the bed.

"lex you can't tell anyone. and i mean anyone."
reece told her in a half stern voice.

"fine reece.. but you gotta buy me starbucks for the year"

"month"

"two months"

"fineee"
reece finally gave in, pulling his little sister closer.
the three of them were just cuddling, until reece fell asleep and lexi got bored.

"blakeeee?"
lexi whined at him.

"shush lex, reecey is asleep"
blake whispered.
lexi got up and left the room, leaving just the two boys.
reece's mum was in the kitchen, and his dad was at the pub watching the football.
around lunchtime, lyndsey walked in to reece's bedroom.

"hi.. blake?"
she asked cautiously, not wanting to get his name wrong.

"yeah it's blake"
he smiled at her.

"i thought so, reece talks about you a lot"
she laughed softly.

"ahh, all good things i hope?"

"of course.. now i was wondering if you boys wanted some lunch?"

"i think reece just wants to sleep for the moment and i had a snack before i came out so we should be alright.. but i'll send him down if he gets hungry"
blake said whilst stroking the blonde boy's hair.

"alright blake, thank you"
lyndsey smiled as she left the room.
blake breathed a sigh of relief as the door clicked shut.
looking over at reece, he noticed his little dimples and a small amount of drool coming from his mouth.
blake laughed and quickly wiped it away.
reece was.. perfect.
blake couldn't be happier with anyone else.
not that reece was his boyfriend.. not yet.
