Henry grumbled to himself as he snuggled down into the
bed. Claire knew he was aggravated but there was nothing he could do about it.
     
    "Is there
anything else I can get you Henry? ” Claire asked.
     
    "No thank you,
Claire. You're so wonderful, why don't you take my car and head home, ” Henry said softly, his voice
muffled slightly by the pillow. He reached out and took her hand. "You
don't have to stay, I'm not a fun sick person to be around, ” he said, his eyes closed.
     
    Claire smiled.
"No one is fun to be around when their sick. And I don't want to leave you
alone."
     
    Henry cracked one
green eye to look at her. "Sebastian should be around here somewhere, and
I'm just going to sleep. You need to go home and take care of your son."
     
    "Are you sure
you're gonna be alright? How reliable is Sebastian to take care of you? ” Claire frowned, not really
liking the idea of leaving Henry alone.
     
    "He'll probably
just pop in every now and then to make sure I'm breathing, other than that... ” Henry trailed off with a shrug.
"I'll be fine Claire really. I don't want to keep you away from
Ethan."
     
    Claire smiled softly.
She reached out and ran her fingers through the hair just over his ear.
"Thank you Henry, but I'm worried about you and how high your fever
is."
     
    "I'm a big boy, I
can handle it, ” Henry said
gruffly.
     
    "I'm not going to
win this argument, am I? ” Claire sighed.
     
    "Nope, ” Henry smirked, half his face
buried in his pillow.
     
    "Fine, I'll go,
but I'm calling a cab, ” Claire said and turned to go.
     
    Henry's grip on her
hand tightened. "Like hell you are. Take my car, I insist."
     
    "Henry... ” Claire started, but Henry cut
her off.
     
    "Claire, take my
car, seriously, ” Henry
said, his tone stern. Claire knew not to argue when he sounded like that.
     
    "Fine, ” she huffed. Claire leaned down
and placed a kiss on his temple. "But I'm coming back tomorrow."
     
    Henry smiled and nodded.
Claire gave his hand a squeeze then let him go. Claire glanced back before
walking out of the room. She had a feeling that she was losing her heart to
that man.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 5
     
    Claire showed up at
Henry's house at 9:00 am the next morning. She walked into the house through
the garage like yesterday. The door led into the kitchen. She walked in to see
Sebastian standing at the counter, drinking a cup of coffee, while messing
around on an iPad, just in his boxers. And said boxers were yellow with a smiley
face on the front of them. Claire rolled her lips in to stop from laughing out
loud.
     
    Sebastian was built
just as nice as his brother, all hard bulging muscle covered in smooth skin.
Sebastian was more tanned though, and covered in tattoos. Tattoos covered both
arms from shoulder to wrist. There was a tattoo on each side of his chest and
both of his sides. Then on the front of each hip it looked like he had a gun
tattooed, but it disappeared into the top of his boxers. She was positive that
he had more on his back, too. Sebastian looked up at her just as he was taking
a sip of his coffee. He froze, his eyes widening slightly over the rim of his
mug. He almost choked as he hastily took a sip of his coffee.
     
    "Claire! What are
you doing here? ” Sebastian
choked, swiping a hand over his mouth.
     
    "Checking in on
Henry. Nice boxers by the way, ” Claire snickered.
     
    Sebastian gave her a
dirty look before taking another sip of his coffee.
     
    "How's Henry
doing? ” Claire asked.   She hadn't been able to sleep well because
she was worried about him.
     
    Sebastian sighed and
raked a hand through his disheveled blonde hair. "He was up all night,
puking his guts up; he hadn't been able to keep anything down. I'm getting
worried about him becoming dehydrated, ” he said, his jaw tight with tension.
     
    "Shit, that's the
most common reason people get hospitalized with the flu, ” Claire murmured quietly.
     
    "I haven't gone
in there
