Sequel: Black Rose ›
Statues Without Eyes
Stomach Flu
I finally got home a little after dark as my body was tired for all the tricks I had been pulling. I slowly opened the door to find the house dark and Ryan was no one in sight.
"Ryan?" I questioned as I walked through the house, "Ryan, I'm home."
I walked into the bedroom to find Ryan laying in bed as I slowly sat my things down, "Ryan?"
"Sy," Ryan let out hoarsely as I walked over to him, "Hey."
"What's wrong?" I asked while sitting in the bed next to him.
"I'm sick," He looked at me as I raised an eyebrow at him.
"You were fine earlier," I mentioned as he nodded.
"I was but while you were gone, I was taking care of Tyler and I just felt dizzy, light headed, my stomach churned."
"Oh man," I groaned as I looked at him, "Don't tell me you have the stomach flu."
"I just threw up everything I ate today like 10 minutes ago."
"Aww," I ran a hand through his hair, "And you're burning up."
"Really? I'm freezing."
"Aww my poor baby's sick," I gave him a sympathic look.
"Yeah," He groaned as he went to move out of the bed to run to the bathroom as I cringed.
"You ok?" I asked through the bathroom door as I heard him start to puke again.
I heard him finish, then the water run as he walked back to the door, "Sorry."
"It's ok," I gave him a look, "If you want, I can take Tyler with me the whole day so he doesn't get sick."
"If you want to," Ryan looked weak as I helped him into the bed.
"I'm going to take a shower," I looked at him with sympathic smile, "Then I know you don't want to hear it but I'm starved."
"I understand if you don't want to sleep in the same bed-"
"You're fine," I smiled at him, "You just get rest, ok?"
"Ok," He nodded as he shut his eyes, "I love you."
"Love you too," I smiled lightly as I went to take a shower.
After my shower, Ryan was fast asleep as I headed to the kitchen to get something to eat. It was strange, it was still early as I sat alone in the kitchen in quiet. Even Tyler was dead asleep but I was the only one who wasn't ready to turn in yet. As I finished up eating, a knock was at our door at like 9 as I went to get it.
"Sylar, I'm so sorry," Jesse rushed out as I gave him a strange look, "The tape and everything-"
"It's fine," I smiled at him.
"Really? I mean, I had no idea that Anna would go so low."
"It is," I nodded at him as he let out a sigh.
"You seemed pretty pissed at me yesterday."
"Because you still have a thing for the girl," I looked at him, "I mean if I said I wan't jealous of her, I'd be lying."
"You're with Ryan and still jealous?" Jesse raised an eyebrow as I rolled my eyes.
"Yes, because, well just because," I mumbled as I looked at him.
"Where is Ryan anyways?" asked Jesse.
"In bed."
"It's early."
"He's got the stomach flu," I cringed trying not to think of it or anything.
"Aw, man that sucks."
"It does."
"Do you need some company?"
"Sure, why not?" I shrugged as I let Jesse in the door, "So what's up?"
"Just I can't believe that this thing," He took out the tape, "Fell into the wrong hands."
"And you brought it here because?" I questioned as he sat on the couch as I joined.
"I thought we could burn it," He shrugged, "Just destroy one copy of it or something."
"Wait," I stopped, "There are more copies?"
"I know Anna," He sighed as he looked at me, "She was always jealous that you had me, and she'll do something to try and ruin things for you."
"Funny, she came to the house early and told me to get rid of you," I smirked as he rolled his eyes.
"She is one crazy bitch."
"Could've told you that myself," I sat back on the couch as I looked at Jesse.
"So um," Jesse paused as I looked at him, "Were you going to bed?"
"No," I shook my head as I head a hoodie and active wear pants, "I'm the only one who isn't tired or dead asleep."
"I was wondering-"
"What?" I looked at him.
"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to get some coffee or something, just a few hours or so."
"If I drink coffee now, I won't be able to get back to sleep," I looked at him.
"Smoothies," He shrugged as I smiled lightly.
"Only a few hours," I went to stand up, "Just to wind down but I can't be gone too long since Ryan can't take care of Tyler too much right now."
"You'll be back by 11," Jesse smiled as I looked at him.
"Should I change?"
"You look amazing," Jesse smiled as he looked me up and down, "No need."
"Thank," I blushed a bit as I went to grab my keys as Jesse waited by the door for me.
"Ryan?" I questioned as I walked through the house, "Ryan, I'm home."
I walked into the bedroom to find Ryan laying in bed as I slowly sat my things down, "Ryan?"
