My eyebrows draw together as I hear the continues coughs and whimpers from Abby's bedroom. I get up quickly starting for her room.

As I leave to check on her Ethan does the same. We walk until we reach her room knocking lightly.

"Abby, can I come in" I ask, she responds with another whimper, and I immediately barge in. I didn't want to just walk in like I did but she was hurting I had to see what was wrong.

"Aww Babygirl come here" Ethan runs to her side embracing her into a hug. I roll my eyes annoyed at Ethan; I don't really know why but I just didn't want him touching my baby.

"I don't feel well" she says, her voice sounded as if she had a very bad cold. She clears her throat harshly more than once and I knew I had to go and get all the things she needs.

"Ethan, can you go see if we have any honey or something for her throat I'll see if we have soup" he hesitates to leave her side but then leaves along with me. We walk into the kitchen in silence not saying a word to one another as we search the cabinets for honey and soup.

I'm the first to find what I'm looking for and quickly warming it up so that I can reach my baby before he does. I actually know that honey wasn't in the cabinets or nowhere in the house, so I'd have an advantage in reaching her first.

Once her soup was done, I grabbed her a spoon and walked back to her room while Ethan struggled to find honey, I slightly feel bad but then I don't oh well.

"Baby here's your soup" I place it on her side table while I sit next to her.

She sits up and reaches for the bowl, but I take it. Not letting her touch, it.

"It's too hot right now and I'll feed you" she protests and takes the bowl out of my hand.

As she tries to pick up the spoon from the bowl her hands shake uncontrollably trying to steady it before it falls right back into the bowl with a loud clank.

"I'm sorry I just feel really weak, but I got it"

"No, you don't baby let me help you Okay" she smiles, and I pull her on my lap holding her close to me. I start feeding her little by little until she asked for more.

This moment could be better me and my baby. I love being able to take care of her when she needed me to.

Where the fuck is this honey!?!

I looked all around the kitchen and its nowhere in sight. Deciding to give up I go back upstairs into Abby's room to find her and Liam laughing while he feeds her soup.

"There's no honey here"

"Oh, probably ran out could you go to the store and get some"

I was going to decline so that I could stay here with Abby and make sure that she's okay, but I realize this is what I had to do for her. I agreed to go leaving Liam with Abby.

I don't know why but I really don't feel as close I did with my brother it feels like we're drifting apart for some odd reason.

Seeing him cuddle Abby when she finished her soup made me feel a hint of jealousy which I've never felt before not until that dream I've never felt the need to be jealous of him with Abby because we both agreed to be with her but now things have changed.

***

"Liam I'm fine why don't you call and check up on Ethan he's been gone awhile"

"No, I'm staying right here I don't want to go get my phone and then your-"

"What's going to happen to me while I'm in bed"

"Give me your phone I'll call him from yours"

I pass my phone to him, and he freezes staring at my phone with an unreadable expression.

"Umm Liam are you okay"

"Who's this"

He gives me back my phone and I see the numerous messages from Zack asking if I've made my decision yet. I sigh loudly and place my phone back on the bed.

"That's Zack"

"Okay and why is he texting you and what is he talking about making a decision"

"He asks me a question and I told him I'll think about it"

"What did he ask you"

"Nothing important"

"Abby your lying"

"I'm not"

"You are your voice squeaks, and your feet moves uncontrollably when you're lying"

I huff loudly about to open up and tell him what Zack really asked me the night before when I came home late but than a miracle happened, Ethan burst through the door with the most adorable basket, and I smile brightly at him for interrupting our conversation and for the basket he held high for me to adore.

I grab the basket from his hands and inspect the basket all over and smile up at him.

"I would kiss you, but I don't want you getting sick because of me"

Unexpectedly he smashes his lips into mine kissing me passionately. Liam pulls me away and Ethan glares at him but doesn't say anything.

"Don't get any ideas my baby is still sick she shouldn't get all worked up she's weak Ethan" he gritted looking angry, I've never seen him angry with Ethan before it's really strange as I watch both of them glare at each other.

"Here Babygirl, I also bought you this" Ethan turns to me and his smile is back like it never left, I knew this couldn't be good something was really wrong with them I think they may have argued.

"Another thing of honey"

"Yeah, well you can put it in your tea, or something help with your throat"

"Thank you so much, the both of you have been really good to me today but I need some rest I'm beyond tired right now"

They stand to leave but not before Ethan stills another kiss from me leaving Liam very upset. He storms out of the room and Ethan follows.

I hope they solve whatever's bothering them.
