"Willy?" a voice intruppted the sniffles of the room. "Will-you awake?" Gabe asks, sliding into the room balancing a small tray.
"I-I`m a-wake." came the raspy voice.
"Hey." Gabe said softly, peering through the darkness to locate the bed.
"H-sniffle-y." Will answers back, throwing back the covers of the bed just a bit for Gabe to see him. He is still too pale, still has those dewy eyes.
"I brought soup and meds!" Gabe tries, putting all his energy into making his statement happy and upbeat. He contiues to make eye contact with the dewy eyes, taking slow steps towards the bed.
"Gabey, don`t come any closer." Will fumbles through. It takes Gabe a few seconds to try to understand the statement, when it clicks.
"Will, it`s just a cold. The doctor said it`s worse for you since you`re thinner then I am. I`m safe."
"You can`t-sniffle-be sure, Gabe." Will says, struggling to get up and lean against the headrest. He is still shaking even with a thick, blue, wool sweater and thousands of blankets. His eyes are blank. Finally, after many attempts, he succeds.
"Will, please, let me take care of you." Gabe begs, closer with the tray in his hands. It`s soup, since Will had mentioned the inability to swallow normal foods.
"Gabey, I l-love you, I don`t w-want you-" he says as he blows his runny nose, another kleenex to his pile in the trash next to him.
"And I love you. You are my partner, Will, and it`s in my job description to take care of you." Gabe snaps, placing the tray of soup on Will`s lap. He leans, eye to eye with the already drifting Will.
Will, who looks like another nap is coming on. He has to get some food in his stomach.
He`s already lost weight from this stupid cold.
"B-But..." Another blow of his nose, a few sniffles.
Gabe was not going to let Will win THIS.
"Will." Gabe says, already around the bed to the other side. He leaps in, grabbing Will`s waist to pull him closer. He feels the radiating heat, the shaking that Will has been for a week now.
"G-sniffles-et away Gabe. You`ll get-blow-sick!" Will weaklly protestes, but soons drops his head into Gabe`s shoulder.
"You`re still so warm. Still shaking. C`mon Will, just a few spoonfuls."
"I`m trying.." Will sniffles, but makes no movement.
In your arms I can still feel the way you
Gabe sings to the sleepy Will.
Gabe grabs hold of Will`s hand, making his hand twist around the metal of the spoon. He leans forward, making Will lean forward towards the bowel.
"Eat."
"Ok Gabey." Will finally says, one spoonful of the orange liquid to his mouth.
want me when you hold me
"Gabe, I`m t-trying to e-eat!" Will half giggles and sniffles as Gabe finishes his singing line.
"You are? Why, I didn`t know!" he teases back, rubbing up and down Will`s arms.
"Gabe!"
"Eat, Will." Gabe says.
I can still hear the words you whispered
when you told me
Gabe sings while Will scoops the soup into his mouth. His aim pretty steady.
"That`s it, lovely."
Will blushes, making the red beam from the pallet of winter white skin. He stumbles, almost dropping the spoon, but makes a quick recovery.
I can stay right here forever in your arms
Gabe finishes as Will eats the last spoonful of soup.
"Are you feeling any better?" After the soup, a little color is returning to his face.
"A little better." A smile on his face.
"You sound better!" Gabe says, wrapping Will closer to him. He still feels warm, still a bit shaky, but at least the dew stare is gone.
"T-sniffles-hanks."
'Cause I'm keeping you
forever and for always
"Do you think Ruth can visit you soon? She bugs me how her new gardener is missing!"
"I don`t want her to get sick."
"Hon, Ruth doesn`t care. She`ll break down the door soon if I keep making excuses!"
"Maybe tommorrow. Right now-sniffle-all I want is cuddles."
Gabe smiled. "I can do that, Teddy."
Seetling down into the covers, Gabe wraps the covers around them. Will is still sniffling, but all Gabe can do is provide cuddles and meds.
Well, and his singing.
We will be together all of our days
"You bet." Will whispers.
Wanna wake up every
morning to your sweet face--always
William simply hums in agreement, making Gabe smile and kiss his forhead.
Mmmm, baby
In your heart--I can still hear
a beat for every time you kiss me
"You sniffle stop my heart everytime we sniffle kiss, Gabey."
"Is that a bad thing?"
A pause, then quietly "No. I love it."
And when we're apart,
I know how much you miss me
"I do." Will slurrs.
I can feel your love for me in your heart
I'm keeping you forever and for always
I'm in your arms
