alvaro watched alejandro get ready for a party he had been talking non stop about for almost two weeks, while he himself laid in bed fighting a cold. he secretly hoped alejandro would stay behind and take care of him but that was wishful thinking.
"varo, do you want me to stay with you?" alejandro sighed, sitting on the edge of the bed looking at the small boy who was curled in a ball being swaddled by blankets. "ye-no, go have fun with everyone." alvaro said in a raspy voice, giving a small smile to alejandro. he didn't want to ruin his friends night just because he wanted something for himself.
alejandro frowned to himself, wishing he would have told him to stay until an idea popped up into his head. alejandro said a small goodbye to the boy before leaving alvaro alone in his dark cold room. what alvaro didn't know what that alejandro was going to the nearest dollar store, in search of alvaro's favorite sweets. alejandro didn't exactly know why he was doing this, he just wanted to make sure his bo- best friend was okay. he began to grow agitated as he searched the candy isle, until he spotted alvaro's favorite candy on the top shelf. sweetart ropes.
alejandro stood on his tippy toes, grabbing the four large packs he could see almost falling into the shelves in the process. he then went over to where he knew the arizona drinks were and grabbed two mucho mangos before heading to the register to check out.
"who's the lucky person?" the cashier asked as she began ringing up his items.
"just my friend, he's sick." alejandro said grabbing his wallet out of us back pocket, grabbing a twenty.
"well, he's very lucky to have a friend like you." she commented, telling him the total of his purchase.
"you can keep the change." alejandro said smiling at the girl who handed him his bag and smiled back, "thank you, i appreciate it."

alejandro quietly crept into alvaro's room, smiling as he heard small soft snores coming from the pile of blankets on the bed. he kicked his shoes off and walked over to the bed, sitting down beside alvaro who had jolted awake when he felt the bed dip down.
"what are you doing here?" alvaro said barely above a whisper, still half asleep.
"well, i didn't want you to be upset and alone so i went and bought your favorite candy and drink." alejandro said softly, smiling down at the boy who grabbed the bag from alejandro's hand and pulled out a pack of sweetart ropes.
"you actually remembered?" alvaro asked, remembering he had only mentioned his favorite candy once and it's when they were fried out of their minds.
"i remember everything you tell me, varo." alejandro said honestly, feeling small arms wrap around his waist. "thank you." alvaro mumbled into alejandro's side.
"of course, baby boy." alejandro said, not taking notice of alvaro's cheeks that were now flushed red.
alejandro ended up moving himself down in the bed, allowing alvaro to attach to his side like a koala. he didn't mind it, if anything he wished this was something that could happen all the time.
