Chapter 14: Sick Prince

Alex woke up feeling hot, but it wasn't from the sun's heat outside due to the air conditioning in the room. He was sweating all over. He gently moved from to bed, so he couldn't wake the girls up. As he made his way to the bathroom to wash up, he was stumbling like his vision made him all dizzy. No choice, he laid down on the couch to avoid his dizziness from increasing.

(10 minutes later)

Alexa woke up and felt an empty space next to her; she noticed that Alex was gone.

Alexa: Alex, love?

No response, she then woke Peyton up.

Alexa: Peyton!

Peyton: hmm? What's wrong?

Alexa: Alex is gone

Peyton: where is he?

Alexa: let's find him

The two walked around the room looking for Alex. After a minute, they heard a loud groan coming from the living room. They follow the sound of the groan which led them to the couch. They saw their Prince all sweating.

Alexa: babe, are you okay?

Alex groaned.

Alex: no, I think I have the fever, girls

Peyton: how do you know, my love?

Alex: number 1, the obvious heavy sweating and number 2 I felt my forehead getting warm

Peyton put her hand on Alex's forehead.

Peyton: ooh, that's warm

Alexa: our poor baby

Alex: I may have a huge headache as well as I feel really dizzy

Peyton: luckily, we have the rest of the week off

Alexa: so we'll use this time to take care of you, our Prince

Alex: hello nurses

The two girls laughed.

Peyton: you need anything?

Alex: get me a blanket please

Peyton: on it

Alexa: how about anything from me?

Alex: get the thermometer so I can check my body temp

Alexa: gotcha

Peyton came back with a blanket and she put it over Alex's body.

Alex: thanks, my love

Peyton: anything to take care of you, my darling

Alexa came back with the thermometer.

Alexa: here babe

Alex: thanks baby

He put the thermometer in his mouth and waited for a minute. Then he took it out.

Alexa: what's your temperature babe?

Alex: 104 degrees

Alexa: will you be okay, babe?

Alex: I'll be fine in a couple of days, but for now I need some rest

Peyton: you want some soup?

Alex: that will be nice, babe

Alexa: I'll get you a wet towel

Alex: thank you

As the two girls were busy, Alex grabbed the remote and turned on the TV, to his delight, it showed a Yu-Gi-Oh! marathon.

Alex: just what I needed

Peyton: what is that, babe?

Alex: oh, it's just a Yu-Gi-Oh! marathon

Peyton: a marathon?!

Alexa: a Yu-Gi-Oh! marathon?! Is that true?

Alex: yeah, it's on right now

Peyton finished making the soup and Alexa got a container of cool water and a wet towel for Alex's forehead.

Alex: thanks girls, I think I'm starting to feel a bit better

Peyton: how so?

Alex: I got my soup, my wet towel, a Yu-Gi-Oh! marathon and of course, my two lovely nurses

Alexa and Peyton: aww

The two sat down with Alex and watched the marathon. They watched the episode in Battle City where it introduced Seto Kaiba's signature white coat.

Alex: there's the coat, girls

Alexa: he looks menacing with it on

Peyton: better than that blue school uniform he wore in the first season

Alex: that coat symbolizes his position as CEO of his company

Peyton: that coat makes him look powerful

As they were watching, Alex ate his chicken soup. After he finished, he wanted to lay down, so he can put the wet towel on his head.

Alex: excuse me girls, I'm gonna lay down, so I can put this wet towel on my forehead

Alexa: how about you lay on our laps?

Peyton: I agree

Alex: are you sure, it's fine?

Peyton: baby, you clearly heard us; we will take care of you

Alex: okay

Peyton and Alexa sat next to each other and Alex slowly laid down on their laps. He put the cool towel on his head as the two girls smiled at him.

Alex: I love you, my loves

Peyton: I love you too

Alexa: I love you, Alex

Alex smiled and he closed his eyes to rest. Peyton and Alexa smiled at their sleeping Prince, then the Goddess stood up.

Peyton: where you going?

Alexa: gonna get him medicine for his fever

Peyton: okay, I'll watch Alex

Alexa nodded and she left the room leaving Peyton with Alex lying on her lap.

(40 minutes later)

Alexa came back with the medicine and she found Alex awake with Peyton laying her head on his shoulder.

Alexa: babe, you're awake

Alex: yeah, I needed to rest my eyes for a while

Alexa: how are you feeling?

Alex: the good news is the headache is gone, but I'm still cold as you can see the blanket wrapped around me and my lovely Aussie girlfriend keeping me warm.

Alexa looked at Peyton with a teasing grin while the IIconic felt her cheeks warm.

Alexa: oh babe, I got some medicine for your fever

Alex: aww thanks, it's what I needed

Alexa: here

Alex: thanks babe

Alex measured the dosage he needed an he drank his medicine. 

Peyton: how you feeling babe?

Alex: I feel a bit better now, but you know what will make me feel real better?

Alexa: what's that?

Alex: come sit here, Alexa

Alexa sat down next to Alex.

Alex: I feel better because of you two and your love for me

Alexa and Peyton felt tears forming in their eyes.

Alex: now look at us, all champions along with Billie and Randy

Peyton: the champions of Team Blue

Alexa: babe, will your fever be gone soon?

Alex: well hopefully after a good night sleep; I'll be okay, but for tonight I have to sleep on the couch

Peyton: aww why?

Alex: my fever may be contagious, and you two might catch it

Alexa: it will be lonely without you, but it's sweet that you think of our health

Alex: of course because I love and care for you two

Alexa: aww, come here

Alexa leaned in for a kiss, but Alex stopped her.

Alex: even kissing, no kissing until my fever is gone

Peyton: I really hate your fever, babe

Alex: I hate it too, but it happens

Alexa: hope you feel better by tomorrow, so we can attack you with our lips

Alex: don't tempt me

The girls giggled.

Peyton: if we can't kiss you; then we'll just do this

Peyton and Alexa nodded at each other.

Alex: what will you do?

Alexa: this...

She leaned in close and lightly blew into Alex's ear making the Prince shiver.

Alexa: Peyton?

Peyton leaned in as well and she lightly blew in Alex's other ear making goosebumps form in his upper arms.

Alex: ...

Peyton: aww Alexa, he loves it

Alexa: I can see the goosebumps

For the rest of the day, the girls took care of the Prince; they checked his temperature every 2 hours while they fed him some small food to get his appetite back on track. 

(5 hours later)

The Yu-Gi-Oh! marathon continued through the night until the three started to get sleepy.

Alex: well it's time to sleep

Peyton: we'll be lonely without you in the bed

Alex: don't be sad babe, I'll be in the bed hopefully by tomorrow

Alexa: hopefully, good night babe

Alex: good night Alexa, good night Peyton

He smiled and the two girls blew kisses at him. Alex fell asleep on the couch while the two girls shared the bed.
