"Here, let me help you," Gabriel said, and he finally uncrossed his arms and reached both hand out towards Des, offering him support to get to the bed. "I'll get you there, I can even carry you..." They both knew he could manage that for certain.

"How you manage that is beyond me and I don't even wanna try and comprehend it at the moment so..." He sighed as he reached for Gabriel's arm, blinking rather stupidly as they made the slow trek up to his room. "Are you normally this warm.. or am I just coming down with something?" Great... that was just what he needed now. A fever.

Gabriel laughed a little, holding Des close and helping him up the stairs, then resting him on the bed. He pressed a hand to his forehead, frowning a little. "Yeah, I think you're coming down with something...You definitely feel warmer than you should."

"I hate getting sick. I turn into a zombie. I am the most lethargic thing ever when I'm sick. ....Have I ever told you that? Eh well ******** it, you'll find out soon enough." Des just sighed as he dragged himself to the center of the bed before getting under a blanket. "...You should probably find the trouble maker and drag her in here before she gets into s**t. I still don't completely trust her on her own if we're both up here."

"I'll help you out, don't worry," Gabriel promised, and then he leaned over the bed, gently brushing Des's hair away from his forehead and pressing his lips to it, as he would have without thinking before this whole mess. He flushed brightly and withdrew, turning around to bolt out the door. "I'll, uh, be right back with Arsenic."

"I don't wanna hear it if you get sick from doing that..." Des mumbled before pulling the blankets up and around his shoulders. For how warm he was, Des felt like he had been thrown in ice water.

"I won't complain," Gabriel promised, and then he ducked out, walking downstairs and finding Arsenic curled up on the couch. "Hey, sweetheart," he said, burying his face in her fur and sighing happily. While he'd definitely missed Des the most, he'd also missed his cat. He walked up the stairs and then set her on the bed next to his sick boyfriend.

Des cracked open an eye to stare sleepily at the cat. "Scratch my hand again and there will be words furball." His gaze then flickered to Gabriel, who was just standing there awkwardly as if unsure what to do with himself. "Pick something. It's either the floor, couch or bed." Arsenic trotted past him, curling up on the top of the pillow. She padded about, walking in a circle two or three times before curling up and purring. "...Lexi think's we've broken up."

"I'm fine with the floor, or the couch," Gabriel said, "or I can...curl up on top of the covers or something." A bed did sound nice; he'd been sleeping on his own couch for the past week rather than making Clary do so. He was just nervous about pushing too hard.

"You need to learn to pick something and do it. Politeness aside." Des grumbled as he pulled back the covers. Curling on top of the covers would be pointless because Gabriel had a habit of worming his way under anything he slept on top of. "We'll talk 'slow' later..." When things weren't as bright, loud and crazy. "Also, you totally avoided what I just said. Are we?"

Gabriel exhaled and kicked off his shoes and socks, sliding under the covers and swallowing nervously. "That's up to you. I don't want us to be, but I'm the one that screwed up."

"Right. Which means you are going to be in a heap of trouble for a while. So what do you think?" The teen just shifted, moving closer to Gabriel. Gabriel was warm, and he was cold. "I'm going to be miserable when I wake up you know..."

"I thought you'd dumped me," Gabriel admitted, his voice quiet. "And yeah, I know, miserable and sick. I'll be here if you still want me here." he opened his arms to allow Des to come closer if he wanted to.

Des just made an annoyed noise. He would have punched the teen if he had the energy. "When did I ever say that. I said go home. Last time I checked there was a difference between the two." Eh.. Maybe he'd worry about it later. "Miserable, sick, lethargic and maybe a bit stabby. So keep pointed things away from me." Des yawned and rubbed at his face, ignoring his glasses.

Gabriel let out a soft whine. "It was sort of reinforced by you not answering my calls or texts for a week," he pointed out, his voice still quiet. He reached over to take Des's glasses, setting them on the bedside table.
