Chapter5- Lake house

After two horrible weeks it only got worse, I was knee in work and was now a coffee addict, I couldn't do all the work during day time since Connor, his mother and I would always go out so I always had to do the work at night it's been a week since his mother was gone, visiting some relatives in the city, and God i wished if she was around so he can treat me nicely just like he always does around her.

I placed my head on my office desk and groaned.

"Oh my god, my head hurt's so bad"

i mumbled closing my eyes shut..a few seconds later my door flew open and i heared footsteps, I bit my lip 'please not more work, please not more work please-'

"Get up, Jeremy"

i heared a thud and my desk shook a little I sighed and took my head off of the expensive wood,only to see a pile of files infront of my face,more work.

"And get me coffee..black"

I sat up slowly so that my head won't spin, I was feeling dizzy and like i was about to throw up.

"I can't"

I mumbled in a hushed tone, looking down at my lap.

"What?"

"I can't..my head hurt's so bad and my stomach is twisting,Connor ..i really can't even get up, I feel dizzy"

I said, now looking up at him he looked me up and down and pointed at the pile of files on my desk.

"I want those files done by the end of the day"

"Connor-"

He didn't let me finish,he walked out of the door and didn't even bother to close it behinde him..i sighed and started to work again..

An hour and a half later, I finished some files and stood up to get them over to him so he can sign them.

Connor's pov

"Come in"

I said out loud when I heard a knock on my door, a second later justin walked in and closed the door behind him, he was dragging his feet to reach me and it took too long, I rolled my eyes and got up, walked over to him and placed my hand out.

"Give them to me, go work on the other ones"

I demanded..he slowly nodded but couldn't lift his hands to hand me the files, instead he dropped them to the floor.

"Connor"

He whispered before his eyes rolled to the back of his his head, I caught his body before it hit the ground and gulped. He wasn't lying...

....

"Has he been eating?"

My mom glanced at me and then back at the doctor while I just stood there, completely forgetting that I'm the one that has to answer that since Justin was MY boyfriend.

"Connor..he's asking you"

She hissed looking back at me.

"How would i know?"

I said with a bored expression, the whole situation was dumb.

"Connor! You live with him!..i've been gone for the past week so i don't know"

She said throwing her hands in the air..she looked like she was about to eat me, her face was red and her fists were balled up, we both looked towards the doctor when he cleared his throat and looked down at his clipboard.

"Well, Mr black, according to these resaults i can assure you that he wasn't eating well, nor drinking nor getting enough sleep..it's like he was starved"

My mom gleared at me and I quickly looked away, I was treating him that bad?. I cleared my voice and tried to come up with a proper excuse.

"he was sick for a while so he wasn't eating well"

She softened her expression when she looked at the doctor and nodded her head.

"Is he okay now doctor?"

She asked softly, gaining a nod from the doctor.

"He's getting better ..Mr black i'm going to write some medicine so Mr blake can take them, also he has to take rest , alot of it so this dosen't get any worse I hope he get's well soon"

The doctor scribbled down some writing on a paper and gave it to me, my mother thanked him before he walked away, she watched him until he was out of earshot and i knew I will get scolded, she turned to me, her expression hard and angry.

"Connor..how could you not notice that justin wasn't eating and wasn't taking rest although he's sick?"

I shrugged and folded the paper the doctor gave me and placed it in my pocket.

"i don't know mom, he was fine..he said he was fine"

"Well, clearly ..he wasn't..you have to take better care of him"

She said pointing a finger at me, i nodded in response not giving her another word,she sighed and ran her hand on her face in frustration.

"I'm going to leave now"

I turned around and started to march away but her voice stopped me in my track.

"Connor alexander black! , you stop right there and right now!"

I rolled my eyes as I heard her heels clicking, 3 second later she stood infront of me, death glearing at me.

"You are not going to work..you're going to take good care of justin..both of you will not work untill he's better"

I sighed and shook my head, there's no way I'm gonna stop just because he's sick, I don't care about him that much- hell, I don't even care about him at all.

"Mom..i can't-"

"We will go to our lake house..and spend a couple of weeks there untill justin is okay"

I furrowed my brows and opened my mouth to speak when she spoke again

"We will leave tommorow morning..thank you"

She then walked away leaving me to cuss under my breath alone, I looked back at Justin's room door then walked inside and found him awake..he dose look tired andawake did not notice he was this pale until now.. he smiled weakly at me as he sat up slowly.

"Hi"

He said his voice raspy, i rolled my eyes at him and slammed the door behinde me.

"Why didn't you tell me you were sick"

He chuckled and looked away

"I didn't think you would care"

"I don't"

I said shoving my hands deep into my pockets.

"Yeah"

He said after another chuckle.

"But my mom does..so now we're going to our lake house for two weeks, or more if you're not..I have to take a break from work because of your dumb ass"

"Because of me?"

He furrowed his brows and placed his hand on his chest.

"Yes you, If you took care of yourself maybe then we wouldn't have to go to the lake house"

"I..i'm sorry..you always gave me so much work that i couldn't manage to eat or take much rest"

He said after he bowed his head looking down at his lap while fiddling with his fingers nervously, i sighed and held the door knob.

"Ugh.whatever, let's go..we will have to go to get you some medicine and then to my house so we can pack, get up"

I opened the door and watched him as he got up then sat back down again with a sigh.

"What..do you want me to carry you now?"

I asked after an eye roll.

"Please?"

He asked, looking up at me me his big doe green eyes, I sighed and walked over to him, he smiled and reached his arms out to wrap them around my neck after I picked him up bridal style.

"Such a gentleman"

He said, leaning his head on my own.

"If you speak one more word I will drop you and say it was an accident"
