Kenneth squeezed his side gently, another yawn passing his lips. He kissed the top of his head, resting his chin on the boy's head. "If the puppy leaves, I'm taking it with me. She's gonna be spoiled." He said, watching it wiggle down into the blankets a little more.

Jordan laughed faintly before he shuddered. "Awh," He breathed softly, smiling. "She's gonna l-..love you yeah," He murmured, trembling again. He bit his lip, hesitant, and pulled the pill out shakily again. "Kenny... just this one..please..? I..I can't just go without..."

Kenneth tried not to sigh, but he couldn't tell Jordan no. Not when he called him Kenny. "Just that one, Jordan.." He said quietly, holding tightly onto his hip. He was terrified that he was going to die, that he was going to have to bring him to a hospital or watch him slip away because the streets were flooded.

Jordan swallowed it dry, curling closer. His jaw trembled. "I'm sorry, Kenny..." He whispered brokenly, tears falling down his cheeks. "I'm sorry..." He buried his face, ashamed that he was addicted enough to beg for one more...always one more...

Kenneth held him close, kissing the top of his head. "Don't be sorry, Jordan.. You can't help it." He said quietly, gently running his finger over his side. He kissed the side of his head, closing his eyes. "Just relax, okay?" He felt the puppy moving over towards Jordan, and held it out to him.

Jordan swallowed, gently drawing the puppy to his warm body, and moving to lay his head in Kenneth's lap. It wasn't long before his heart rate slowed down some and his fever began to break. He yawned sleepily.

Kenneth slowly ran his fingers through the boy's hair, looking down at him. His eyes traced slowly over his face, looking him over in awe. 'He'll never know how much I really love him..' He thought, reaching over to turn the lamp down a little before he started playing with Jordan's hair again. "You can take a nap if you want to.." He said quietly.

"Mm.." He mumbled in response, his trembles not coming as often anymore. He usually kept his using steady, but since he got sick the other night it had all been thrown off. He rested his hand on Kenneth's knee, the puppy tucked against his bare chest and the crook of his arm.

He adjusted his weight, laying his head against the back of the sofa. He heard the puppy whimpering as it tried to get comfortable before she finally found the spot she liked and settled down. He rested his hand gently on Jordan's chest, running his fingers over his chest.

Instead of tensing, Jordan relaxed at the touch and offered a faint hum, his eyes closed. He shifted his weight some, pressing Kenneth's comparably cool hand closer to himself, the briefest of smiles tilting his lips. His hand returned to Kenneth's knee gently again.

Kenneth gently ran his fingers over his chest, looking him over silently. It was hard to believe the boy was actually comfortable enough to lay down on him and not be scared, that Kenneth himself had opened up and told Jordan how much he really cared for him. Maybe not in so many words, but he'd tried to tell him.

Jordan drifted off for a good half hour before stirring, tensing uneasily until her realized who he was lying on, and relaxed. He rubbed carefully at an eye, feeling a lot better now, and tilted his head to look up at Kenneth. "Mm..still no power, huh?"

Kenneth looked over at him as he looked up and nodded. "Yeah. Hopefully they'll have it on in a couple minutes. Since the storm's been stopped for a good half an hour." He said quietly, reaching up to run his fingers through the boy's hair. He leaned down, kissing his forehead gently before he sat up.

Jordan just smiled faintly, not bothering move. He looked down at the small sleeping puppy, then reached up to gently trace Kenneth's cheek, trying to calm that rise in nerves as he did so.

Kenneth smiled as he felt the boy's fingers on his cheek. He slowly ran his fingers through his hair, turning his head to kiss his palm. The lights flickered and came back on, but Kenneth didn't bother turning off the lamps. He just wanted to feel Jordan's hand on his cheek.
