Logan's stomach did backflips like an excited puppy dog as he woke. He groaned as he turned onto his side and didn't see Brandon next to him. He stumbled out of bed, woozy and light-headed. He ran back to the bathroom and vomited again and again. Brandon emerged behind him, patting Logan's back, trying to calm his nerves. "Was I too rough last night?" He asked Logan as the boy wiped his mouth and nose with a towel.
"No...no you didn't..." Logan protested as Brandon handed Logan a small cup of the medical liquid.
Logan swallowed the medicine and collapsed in Brandon's arms. Brandon lay the boy down and covered him up with the blankets and sheets and crawled in with him. Logan's eyes fluttered, but before the feeling of sleep washed over him he said, "I love you, Brandon..."
"I love you too, buddy." Brandon whispered as he stroked Logan's head softly. Soon, the boy was sound asleep and Brandon exited the bed, returning to his video games.
