~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When JJ left for work this morning Asher was still asleep he didn't sleep very well and ended up in yours and JJ's bed at 2 o'clock in the morning so you waited til about ten to wake him up.
"No Mama. I want Daddy."
He cried the second he opened his eyes and saw you smiling at him.
"Baby, Daddy is at work. He'll be home before you know it though."
You brush his hair out of his face but when your fingers brush his forehead you feel how hot he is.
"Asher baby do you not feel good."
He shook his head
"Okay my love lets go take your temperature."
You pick him up from the bed and take him to the kitchen you sit him in on the counter as you reach above him to grab the thermometer.
"No Mommy, I don't want that I want my daddy."
"Ash, I understand you want your daddy but your stuck with Mommy right now so please let me take your temperature."
He shook his head. Asher got like this when he was sick he would cling to you or JJ and didn't want anyone else.
"How about this bub you let me take your temperature and we will call Daddy and see if he can talk."
He looked at you thinking about it for a minute before he slowly nodded his head and opened his mouth. When you pulled out the thermometer it read 102 degrees. You grimace but don't say anything.
"Okay little one thank you for being a big boy, let's call daddy, yeah?"
You pick him up and take him to the couch where you pulled out your phone FaceTimed JJ. To your surprise the second JJ answered the phone Asher busted into tears.
"Hey bud what's wrong?"
JJ asked concern evident in his voice and eyes.
"Daddy I no feel good."
Your little boy sobbed. JJ looked at you.
"He's got a 102 fever and of course he only wants his daddy."
JJ nods you see him turn to one of his employees
"Hey my kid is sick can you handle today with out me?"
He asked.
"Yeah man I hope the kid feels better."
You hear the older man named Earl who worked for JJ say.
"Hey bubba, daddy will be home in ten minutes okay."
Asher brightens up a little at that. Everyone say goodbye and then JJ hangs up.
"Mommy?"
"Yes my love?"
"Can we watch Mickey Mouse until Daddy gets here?"
"That sounds like a good idea."
You turn on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Asher sits in your lap. You enjoy it while it lasts knowing that the second JJ gets here Asher will only want him. And just as he said ten minutes later you hear the front door open.
"Daddy."
Asher says not trying to leave your lap but reaching his arms towards JJ. He immediately walks over and grabs Asher and kisses both of your foreheads.
"My poor little boy."
He says sitting down with Ash cuddled into his chest.
"I'm gonna go make some soup for him."
You say rubbing Asher's back. You run into the kitchen and grab a can of chicken noodle soup and warm it up on the stove. When the soup is warmed you take it to the living room where JJ feeds it to Asher blowing it off before feeding it to him. After a few minutes of eating Asher turns his head to JJ's chest.
"Daddy icky."
He cries.
"I know baby-"
Before he finishes his sentence Asher had thrown up on him. JJ looks at his shirt then at his son who is now wailing.
"Well I didn't think that was going to happen."
"I'm sorry Daddy."
He cries
"It's okay baby I promise. Hey babe, come get Ash he needs a bath and I need to take a shower."
You come into the room from cleaning up the kitchen to see Asher crying and JJ trying to comfort him without getting more puke on your son.
"It's okay I was going to give him one after he finished his soup anyways."
You say trying to make both of your boys feel better. You walk up to Asher grabbing him and putting him on your hip luckily JJ had taking his clothes off so now he only had a pull up on so you didn't also end up with puke on you.
"Okay baby boy let's get you cleaned up."
You run a cool bath for him.
"You want bubbles lovie?"
He shakes his head
"Okay what about you bath toys?"
He shakes his head
"I just want my daddy."
He says tears welling up in his eyes
"Oh I know, my love, your daddy will be in here real soon."
you set him in the bath tub hoping it will help him feel better but he's still crying. You finish his bath.
"Daddy."
He cries trying to get JJ to come to him.
"Baby, Daddy has to take a shower it might take him a minute why don't me and you lay down for a quick nap?"
He nods his head you lay him in the middle of the bed and crawl in next to him. You turn on Sponge Bob hoping that will help lift his spirits but no such luck. You run your fingers through his hair til he slowly falls asleep. You sigh in relief as JJ walks in. He goes to pick him up to place him on his chest.
"JJ Maybank I just got the child to stop crying if you wake him up we won't be able to have another one."
JJ nods and climbs in on the other side of Asher
"My poor boy."
He says stroking his hair
"I hate when he's sick."
He continues
"Your lucky you own the mechanic shop, an employee would have never gotten away with leaving over a little fever."
You say teasing him
"I would let any of my people leave if their kid had a fever no matter how small."
He says seriously
"I know you would, it's one of the things I love about you, but most bosses aren't like you."
You reach over Asher and stroke JJ's cheek. He leans over Ash to kiss you.
"Daddy you came back."
You hear a little voice in between you say
"Of course I did. I could never leave my baby boy that long."
He says looking at him with sad eyes he picks Asher up and lays him on his chest.
"You feel any better bud?"
JJ asks
"No"
He says softly
"Okay Ash well you go back to sleep and I promise when you wake up I'll be right here."
JJ says rubbing Asher's back. After a few minutes Ash falls back asleep and JJ looks at you with hurt eyes.
"Why didn't he think I wasn't coming back?"
"Babe he's sick and you weren't here when he woke up this morning and then he got sick on you and you took a long shower. And he didn't mean it the way you're taking it."
"I went to clean up the mess I forget how clingy he gets when he's sick, God I'm an awful father."
"JJ Maybank you are the best father in the whole world, you are the only person who could calm Asher down all day, you didn't freak out when he puked on you, he loves you more than anything in this world. And by the way thank you for cleaning up the mess."
You say kissing his cheek
"Well in know you hate puke so I did it."
He says looking down at Asher flushed face against his chest
"We should have another one."
He says quietly
"Another baby? Ash being sick is what made you come to this conclusion?"
He shrugs
"Yeah I mean we make a great team and look how cute he is."
He looks at you
"Well we do make cute babies."
