Worried

~Logan's POV~

I coughed for the fifth time in ten minutes. I took medicine after I coughed when I got up.

I looked in the mirror as I fastened my tie. I rarely got sick, and I never took a day off. I know it's illogical to work when you're sick, but it's just not in my nature to take time off. I looked at my watch. I had to go to the kitchen for breakfast. I don't want to get everyone sick, so I'll just have to have breakfast in my room.

I walked out of my room and down to the kitchen. I saw Patton in the kitchen adding cream to coffee. He realized I was standing in the doorway and he smiled.

"Hey, Logan! Here's your coffee." Patton said and handed me the mug.

"Thank you..." I muttered. I took a sip. Patton looked at me, confused. "What is it?"

"Your voice sounds a little bit raspy. Are you okay?"

"Huh? Oh, I'm fine..." I put the mug on the counter. Patton grabbed my wrist and turned me toward him. He had a concerned look on his face.

"Are you sure? Your heartbeat is off and you look tired." Patton said. He touched my forehead. "And your forehead is warm. Are you sick?"

"I'm fi-" I got cut off when I started coughing. I covered my mouth with my arm. Patton's eyes widened. I coughed a few more times and then stopped.

"Lo, you need to stay in bed before you end up hurting yourself," Patton said, softly. Even though I hate admitting it, he was right.

"Yeah, you're right..." I sighed. Patton smiled and gently grabbed my hand and led me to my room. He sat me on my bed and I lied down. Patton took my glasses off and undid my tie. He set them aside. I felt my face get warmer and I breathed through my mouth and my vision got hazy. I felt a cold hand on my face.

"Logan... hold on," Patton said and I heard footsteps getting farther away. I waited for a few minutes. I heard the door open and close. I felt a damp cloth on my head. "Logan, can you drink this?"

A cold glass of water was pressed against my lips. I slowly tilted my head back and drank the water. When the glass was finished, Patton put it on the bedside table and he sat next to me.

"Rest Lo, I'll be right here if you need me. I told Virgil and Roman what's happening." Patton said and brushed his hand against my cheek. I slowly nodded and my eyelids closed. I could've sworn I heard Patton say something else. I smiled faintly and fell asleep, knowing what he said.
