Caleb holding your hair when you’re sick, rubbing the back of your shoulders gently and nearly in tears as if he was the one that’s sick— and God, he wishes he were. Seeing your teary eyes as you cling onto the toilet or sink breaks his heart, and he’d do anything to be the one dealing with the tummy pain instead of you.
Hell, he is the one calling Zayne, doing all things possible for an online consult, or have Zayne come over if he insists he needs to check you in person; Caleb is NOT making you get dressed and in a car to go to the hospital.
It would’ve taken maybe one (1) single time as teenagers of you not even being able to hold down water for him to have learnt how do administer IV drips; you’re NOT staying dehydrated under his watch. Electrolytes, ice chips, water, broth, tea, anything your body can handle to ease your dizziness and headaches.
When you can finally hold down some food, he’ll have a huge pot of congee waiting for you, as well as more broths with some seriously tender veggie bits in itー maybe even shredded chicken if you’re feeling better. When the hunger is too much, he’ll carefully soak corn tortillas and crackers in the soups and feed you them, at least until you feel ready to nibble on the, dry… which he will also feed to you.
Don’t think about doing anything yourself, cause it’s not happening.
Let gege take care of you.
