Reid moves into the dorm room that believes to him and Tyler. He looks around the room, seeing that Tyler wasn't in. He wondered where the kid is, he's only a year older then him. Though it's fun to call him kid, he shrugged his shoulders. It's not like he's mean about it. He closed the door, dressed in nothing but a white towel. His blonde hair is wet and nearly white now from being wet. He rubbed a hand through it before stretching. He moved toward his side of the room, before pulling open the dresser drawer. He pulled off his towel not caring if anyone walked in. He threw it aside as he did leaving it on Tyler's bed.

He pulled out a pair of black boxers before stepping into them. He let the elastic back flap back against his skin. It didn't hurt of course, he moved his hand to the top of the dresser. Grabbing his deordant in his long fingers he applied some to the pits of his arm. He made a slight sound from the coldness before flipping it in his hand and placing it down. He then closed his top drawer after getting out a pair of socks and sat on the bed. He pulled the white socks on until they were nice and snug. Vanessa better be at Nicky's. He thought to himself before standing and opening another drawer to pull out black jeans.

He pulled them on before taking out a belt and fastening his around his waist. He didn't tighten it too tight so the jeans were still baggy and showed his boxers. He then pulled out a nice black long sleeve shirt. His favorite shirt and pulled it on, it hugs against him nicely. He toyed with his drying hair a little and sprays some collogne on. He is about to slip his feet into his shoes before he heard the door opening.

He was getting sick and he didn't know why or how or with what but he didn't think it was just your average run of the mill cold. No... He'd been feeling like crap ever since the nightmares had started and now look at him! He wasn't hungry, he was sleeping nearly every free chance he got; coughing and sneezing... It was horrible! He had a feeling his mother would be getting a call if he went to the infirmary so he stayed away from there but he was starting to regret that decision. He wasn't going to let some stupid little cold get the best of him and make him punk out but he was feeling worse as the days went on and he was burning up. Yes, he'd taken his own temperature and a fever of one hundred point three was not good. He rarely got sick, so why now?

He was going to ask his dad if he ever got like this. Tyler had been using a bit more than usual, all thanks to his beloved room mate, but it'd never given him a result like this. From what he could see, Reid was doing just fine with it all. Maybe it was all in his head or he was blowing this out of proportion... Maybe it was just the flu and he'd get over it in no time. It all still boiled down into one thing: his mother was going to freak out when she found out. This thought led Tyler to try some preventative measures before things got too bad. He was going to have to go home this weekend to he had to be better by then. Even if he managed to get it down to a little sniffle once in a great while and ninety-nine point whatever, she'd know.

He had spent a long time in the sauna, trying to sweat this thing out. After that, he'd gone for a swim until his body felt like it was going to fall apart and he'd just sink in the water. There was no one else around so that wasn't a good thing. Heading back into the sauna for a few more minutes, Tyler let himself warm up before he hit the showers and dressed in a pair of baggy gray sweats and a well fitted black wife beater. He was just going to crash and pray that he was better come morning.

He trudged back to his room, pushing the door open to find a, thankfully, clothed Reid. "Who is it, tonight," he inquired, lethargically before he threw his gym bag into the corner and practically collapsed onto his bed.

Reid rubbed a hand over his forehead getting a flash of one of those headaches again. He clenched his eyes tight a little as it felt like his head was going to explode. He groaned out a little sitting over on his head, his hands finally moving to hold his head. He swallowed and mumbled something to himself. He forced himself to move his hands and open his eyes. It was hard to at first and it seemed like he was seeing spots. Though it was slowly fading, he wondered how long it would last before coming back again.

He had been getting headaches lately, really bad ones at that. Hurt like a bitch too, he then he even blacked out once. That was wierd, he had been pumping himsel up with pain pills. Though they didn't seem to help much, he shook his head as he blinked a few times, his vision finally clearing. He looked to his shoes in front of him and then to the opening door. He smirked when he saw Tyler, he didn't look so good either. Under the teasing smile there was concern, that pesty loyalness of Reid.

"Hey who said I'm just not going out for a fun night on the town?" He asked smirking still as he moved over and flopped onto the bed beside Tyler. He moved turning onto his side to watch him. He looked him over before raising an eyebrow. "You look like hell." He said to him pushing himself up on a eyebrow. He moved a free hand to touch Tyler's forehead. "And burning up...see this is why you should have sex." He teased to him as he sat up completely now. "Maybe ya just need a good Reidelixer. Nicky's the all time cure for-" He winced and groaned moving his his hand to his head as another painful migraine ripped through his head.

They'd known each other since before they were born. They really didn't need to hide anything from the other because it was always obvious and things, eventually, always came out. This, however, wasn't the same. When powers were involved or bullies or girl trouble or... Well, okay, Tyler liked to handle as much as he could on his own, no matter what the case. He was tired of always being the baby, always being treated as if he couldn't take care of himself. If the boys had known about his nightmares and his sudden illness, they would have immediately taken measures to deal with this and not let him bother with any of it. In all honesty, it was a pain in the ass but he loved them for it. They just didn't know that. With Reid and Tyler being room mates, everything was just a bit easier to spot. He'd taken note of the boy having headaches but he rarely saw them get as bad as they were, now.

Tyler laid on his stomach, stretching out and taking up the surface of the whole bed, shoving a pillow under his head and closing his eyes with a smirk. "Dude, retard in a coma could figure that one out." When did Reid just ever go out 'for a fun night on the town'? No, there was a girl involved in there, somewhere, or would be. If it was Reid's option, Tyler would have been invited but you didn't drag your shy little brother on dates, now did you? Reid didn't even bother setting up double dates for them because it was a total waste. He swatted at Reid's hand, trying to get him away. Tyler didn't need Reid going all paternal on him, no matter how mockingly he did so. He'd been in the process of opening his mouth to say something when Reid's pain took over and Tyler shot up from his bed out of concern. The speed in which he'd moved from the bed to his feet wasn't recorded but it was fast enough to make the room around him spin. Black spots appeared before his eyes and he thought he was going to pass out.

He didn't, thankfully, but that didn't stop the matter at hand, here. Reid was still in pain. No matter how sick or pained he was, Tyler would put any one of the other three sons before himself and this time was no different. Never mind the fact that he found himself needing a lie down more than anything right now or that he was ready to cough up a lung... Reid was in pain. The only problem was that Tyler didn't know what he could do for him. He hated feeling helpless! "Reid?"

Tyler was Reid's bestfriend, hell he was most likely his only friend outside of the Covenant. It's not like he's exactly unfriendly it's just that he know a lot of people though he don't really call them his friends. Tyler is the most closet to him, he could cool his jets when he's at it with Caleb. Which his often, he can depend on Tyler to be there for him for a lot of things. He's like a brother to him, a longer brother. He doesn't mind sharing a room with him, they get along pretty well. He get along with Pogue too, Caleb on occasion.

Hell if he was gay then Tyler would be pretty intriguing to him, though they all know Reid is for the ladies. He think he had noticed Tyler talking in his sleep lately, nightmares or something. Well they sound like nightmares, he sounded scared. He don't do nightmares really, what does he worry about enough to fear. "Hey, I gotta get my mack on." He said as he winked at Tyler and shrugged his shoulders. He took it upon himself to try and sleep with every girl in town. He's not failing that much either, condoms make the world go round. Ha.

He elbowed Tyler as he swatted at him and rolled his eyes. "You know me touching you make your day." He teased to him grinning before looking up at the ceiling. He felt the bed moved and from how light it was now he knew that Tyler had gotten up. He kept his eyes closed though, breathing heavily. He groaned slowly trying to make it stop. He opened his eyes and they turned black. He moved his eyes to focus on the half full bottle of aspirins on the desk. They moved to his waiting hand quickly as his eyes turned back to normal. It was fairly small and simple. Reid didn't care anyway. He wasn't getting any older so screw it. He popped the bottom open squinting his eyes. "I'm okay, just need sex." He said cracking Tyler a grin to try and fool him before taking two pills and swallowing them dryly.

Tyler wouldn't even bother considering being gay. He might not have been sleeping with any girl that would so much as look at him as if he was attractive but he wasn't going to say that he wasn't all for girls. Some people had questioned his relationship with Reid because of it, though. He hadn't had a girlfriend and the boys were so close and room mates and all... No, Tyler was strictly friends with Reid, nothing more and nothing less. The boy was like a brother to him and so that would have seriously been wrong on more than a level or two. If Tyler had been talking in his sleep, that was a new one to him. He knew that the nightmares were getting pretty intense, though. He also knew that he was waking up with bruises he couldn't explain but he remembered getting in the dream.

He rolled his eyes at Reid. See, that was the problem with him. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy the thought of having some chick to hang out with and possibly make out with but it was that the boys never really gave him that chance. Caleb was the oldest, smooth talking, sweet and sexy. Pogue was the hot jock that everyone thought was so cool and Reid was the bad ass. Then came Tyler. With three older males stealing all of the chicks and him being the youngest, they reduced him to being the cute little brother. By they, Tyler meant not only the people around them but also the other boys. It was impossible for him to find a girl that would take him seriously and see him as anything but a little brother. Of course, because of all of this, he'd become self conscious and shy. When the three boys weren't around, it was easier for him to be a bit more bold but it was when he was away from them and the people that he knew that he could really get bold. Tyler had, in fact, fooled around with a girl up until the point of actual sex. It'd been at his older cousin's wedding and her room mate had dound him rather cute. Too bad his aunt walked in on them...

Had Tyler told any of the Sons this, though, they would have laughed and never believed him so he just kept his mouth shut. It wouldn't matter because he was still a virgin but he felt like it'd earned him some points somewhere... "What? Girls got tired of you so you've got to go for guys now? Reid, man, I love you and all but there's some lines I just won't cross." He watched the bottle float but he didn't say anything. Tyler really didn't care who did what, one way or the other. He just didn't use his own powers all that often. Mostly, it was when Reid used his. Dropping back down on the bed, he curled up into a ball, closing his eyes and clutching his pillow. "So go, already..." He was tired of listening to the 'I need sex' rants that he'd go on from time to time. It all just got so old.

Reid's pretty much straight as an arrow, he enjoy women. He enjoy being with woman, he enjoy looking at woman. Though he doesn't care if a guy's gay and flirting with him. It may be a little freaky or uncomfortable but so what. Hell it's not like he's against gay sex well hmm it's not like he'll do it either. He like sex with woman, he's far from a virgin though if he had to choice a guy. Then it would be Tyler mostly, they're like brothers and well that would be wierd though they're not brothers. They are really close and eww change of subject. Disturbing image!

Reid knew that Tyler didn't get many girls attention with them in the way. How could he, he's the quietiest out of them out and then to go invisible. Though hell he could hook him up if he wanted. The two of them share almost everything even clothes, though when it comes to girls Reid haven't offered to hook him up. Maybe he should change that, though then that's one girl he can check out now isn't it? He wondered if Tyler was still a virgin he had a feeling he was, he couldn't have done that. Blue balls is evil.

"Girls never get tired of me and I'll rock your world baby boy. " He said still teasing him and then laughing out. He was just kidding with him, kinda sort of. Yeah he's kidding with him. He rubbed a hand over his head, trying to make the pain of his migraine go away. He was killer, he swallowed back the pills feeling them go down. He looked to Tyler and then moved to grab his leg. "I'm not leaving you alone to drown in your vomit. Come on, no need to lay in here and be miserable." He said pulling at his leg before playfully lifting him up. "Come on dude, Nessa's waiting! Maybe we'll get us a threesome. Make ya a man."

Tyler was pretty sure that Reid was just a huge nymphomaniac. Okay, so he wasn't a full on nympho because they were girls but he was the male version to the extreme. If he ever ran out of chicks, Tyler wouldn't be surprised to see Reid with a guy. Of course, he wouldn't be the one taking it up the ass. Oh, no... Reid couldn't bottom. Yeah, Tyler had put a bit of thought into this... So what? It wasn't like it was true or anything. Of course, Tyler wasn't so sure he'd be comfortable with the idea of Reid considering him as his first butt buddy. He loved his friend, dearly, not queerly. Besides, Reid really was like a brother to him so it was just wrong on more than one level.

Yeah, Tyler was so shy thanks to them. It was actually pretty pathetic and he didn't know what to say about it. All he did know was that he needed to change that but what was he going to do? Exactly. Maybe things would be different if he changed his name and schools and personality but he would always see himself as the baby boy and would always second guess himself with girls. If Reid had offered, Tyler might have agreed but he wasn't going to ask him to help the boy out. No, It was something that just had to be offered. Even then, Tyler wasn't so sure that he'd take him up on it. Yes, Tyler was a virgin. So what? You couldn't miss what you'd never had...

"Girls get tired of you the second you open your mouth," he mused closing his eyes in an attempt to stop the world from spinning. "Yeah, okay," he scoffed, dryly. No, he wouldn't. He was slowly starting to drift off into a sick sleep when he felt a tug on his leg and his eyes opened once more. "I won't be miserable, I'll be sleeping. It's just a little cold, Reid. Besides, you don't want me going out and getting sick, do you? You're my room mate, guess who's gonna be the first to get blamed by my mother." Yeah, that was a way to get out of it. Tyler was trying to play if off as best as he could but it wasn't as if Tyler wouldn't be able to see through him. "The only threesomes I'd join do not include you." Can you say ew? Now, Nessa and Emily? Choice!

Reid didn't even know what the word nymphomaniac meant. He didn't know that he probably best described the name. He liked sex, he like touching girls and feeling them squirm under him. He like it all, kissing, rubbing, poking (haha), sucking...so many other things. Reid was just a sexual dude that like sex...so is he in fact a male nymphomaniac? Then he got it bad. Though would he turn to males if he got tired of woman, he don't think that's even possible. As long as there's a hot girl out there there's a horny Reid. Though have he thought about doing anything with a guy?

Once or twice, who doesn't? It can't be any more different then screwing a girl. Though he heard different, where exactly did he heard that? Mind your own business, he's not telling. Though Tyler is like a little brother to him, he can't picture himself like that with Tyler without something more then sex. It would just be wrong and everything. He haven't found a girl yet that he's willing to love. Will Reid Garwin ever find love? That's a hard question.

"That I highly doubt, baby boy." He said moving his finger in front of his lips and licking out with his tongue. "Though you know noting about that." He teased to him as he grinned. He then watched Tyler as he closed his eyes and looked concerned. "You alright?" He finally stopped trying to lift and pull at Tyler. He stepped back and crossed his arms. "Well I'm not going to leave you alone looking like Caleb without his morning bags of nails to eat. "He said pushing at Tyler's leg. He then gasped in mock offense and coverd his heart. "Ah that hurt." He said before grinning and wiping away fake tears.

"Trust me, they do. Why do you think they're so quick to let you fill it with something else?" He might not have ever been in that position with a girl, before, but he wasn't stupid. He knew the basics and Reid was always more than happy to fill in the details of this girl or that one. Of course, he'd seen movies, too. Hey, he was a red blooded teenage American male, you don't think he's seen a porno or two? Haha, that's funny. The point was, he wasn't so naive, it was just that he hadn't put any of that knowledge into practice. He didn't think he ever would, either, at the rate he was going. He merely grunted and rolled his eyes behind the lids. He knew a little something! Just not much and not from personal experience.

"Yeah, I'm fine," he lied and rolled onto his side, his back to Reid. The less he actually saw of him, the better. One look and you knew he wasn't alright. "Just go have fun, I'm not going anywhere." He wasn't going to keep Reid there if he wanted to go out and have fun. He chuckled at Reid's comment about Caleb until it turned into coughing and he covered his mouth with his hand. Once he was finished, he pulled his hand away, catching a glimpse of red on his palm. Tyler opened his hand, pulling it close to his face before he quickly balled it up and shoved it under his pillow and out of sight. Blood. He was coughing up blood, now?! Maybe it wasn't so bad. Maybe he was just coughing so much that he was making his throat raw. Oh shit... Had Reid seen it? Sometimes, Reid could be just as bad as his mother and he really didn't want that. He'd be fine.

He hoped.

"Because I'm good like that." He teased and poked Tyler. He knew that Tyler wasn't exactly clueless to the females. He tell him enough of stuff about his little adventures for Tyler to right a book on. There's always details details details with Reid, nothing's private. Hell Tyler's his bestfriend what are bestfrieds for. Plus Reid always was one to try and get Tyler to kiss a girl when they're coming up. When you done sleeped over with Reid as many times Tyler have there's going to be talk of sex involve. And Reid love pay per view haha.

Ah those some embarrassing moments to think of. Watching porno with his bestfriend, boys will be boys. He didn't think anything of it, it's not like they touched or anything. He shrugged his shoulders attention going back to Tyler and his lieing answer. He knew he was lieing, Tyler could never look him in the eyes and lie to him. Hmm Tyler couldn't look anyone in the eyes and lie to them. He frowned a little moving onto the bed and moving to lean over Tyler. He noticed the blood of course and that was it.

He wasn't going to sit back and watch his friend cough up blood. He got to his feet moving to his cell. "I'm calling Caleb." He said turning to look at Tyler as he grabbed his phone in hand. Damnit why is Caleb always the first one to call. Oh said this is a covenant problem. Well Caleb is like the Alpha Hen haha see how he said Hen. Well whatever, the dude's coughing up blood. "I'm getting headaches, you're coughing up blood. Do you think it's coincidence?"

"It must be nice to live in a fantasy world," he chuckled and shook his head. Tyler didn't think that any of what he was saying was entirely true but Reid was always a little high up on himself. Yeah, Reid was like an open book when it came to sex. He'd tell you anything and everything you needed, wanted, didn't need or want to know and then some. Hey, at least Tyler wouldn't be completely unprepared when he finally took that step with someone. Hopefully, though, he'd be lucky and he wouldn't be with someone who had too much experience. It would just make him look horrible. Yeah, Reid tried to fix him up with a girl once in a while but it wasn't as if he ever offered him any of the good ones.

Yes, those moments were embarrassing but it wasn't like there weren't other boys out there who did that. They even watched them with their best mates, right? So long as they kept their distance... and they did. Tyler was terrible at lying. He couldn't lie to Caleb, period. Pogue and Reid were easier attempts but he never really got them to believe him. Why should they? He was lying! Tyler felt the bed sink, wondering if he'd hidden it quick enough but his answer to that had come when Reid spoke.

Tyler closed his eyes and sighed. Damn him. Yeah, Caleb should know but, of course, it was because they were worried about their baby boy. Reid could have told Caleb about the massive head aches before this but now that Tyler was getting sick, he had to help him out, huh? "I would if... It weren't for these." He pulled his shirt up to reveal several dark bruises on his side. "I dreamed... I dreamed I fell off a wall onto my side." And now look at him...

Reid eyed his best fried worried. "This stuff aint normal I've read about these thing in the book of damnation back when we were kids." Reid said taking a seat. "Someone is casting on you...I just don't know who." Reid said rubbing his head in frustration who was using against them! "I swear if I find out whose doing this." Reid said his eyes turning black out of pure anger. "I'm going to kill them!" Reid said slamming his hand against his night stand raw power releasing itself causing their lamp to shatter. "We need to get you to a hospital baby boy." Reid said holding out his arm to help Tyler up.

"I'll update Caleb on the ride over there, but we'll need you use your car because mine's out of gas." Reid said with a smile trying to lighten the mood with just a little bit of his Reid humor. "I was going to ask you for some gas money, but it looks like I won't bee needing it now." Reid said half carrying Tyler to the door.

"Reid..." The boy was upset and he needed to calm down. Tyler knew that this was serious but what could they do if it was magical? "No." He tried to pull away but he just didn't seem to have the strength to really fight him on this. "Mom'll freak, man. And Dad? He'll go on a witch hunt by himself. The doctors... they won't be able to help so why?" He wanted to go to sleep. He wanted to go to sleep and never wake up. Oh, it was such a tempting thought. "You just want an excuse to drive my car," he smirked. Did it matter? There was no point in arguing but this was going to get ugly and Tyler didn't have the strength for it. He didn't have the strength to deal with his mother, father, Caleb, Reid, and Pogue. They were... Well, he was the baby and so they were all a little more defensive over him. He just didn't want people freaking out and worrying. If there was nothing they could do about it, what could doctors and science do?

"I know there isn't much they can do it but I think can do more there than I can do here. I can't even use much anymore these damn headaches." Reid said grabbing his own head the stress not helping much. "Who the hell is doing this!" Reid yelled in blind rage. "Whoever it is they have to be pretty strong because it's effecting everyone!" Reid said trying to be more sensible about everything. "What do you want me to do baby boy, because frankly were out of damn options either you come up with ideas or I'm making the call." Reid said of course by call he meant calling Tyler's parents something he hadn't done...in the history of ever.


"This is serious this is no cold this is magical, and if we leave it untreated you could die and we can't afford to lose the Simms line." Reid said. "Maybe your dad knows something I mean he has been doing this a lot longer than we have maybe it's something thats supossed to happen." Reid said going on nothing more than pure hope. "I mean it can't hurt to ask I'm pretty sure he could leave your mom out of it." Reid said Tyler's dad was the coolest dad he had ever met and he was sure that he could atleast offer some kind advice about everything

"But..." Yeah, again, he couldn't really argue much, now could he? "If someone's using against us, the only thing they can do it hook me up to a bunch of machines and that'll be that. It'll get everyone all worked up and -" Reid was upset and Tyler didn't want to upset him anymore. He leaned against the stronger male, giving in, finally. "Just... make sure you hold the phone away from your ear when you tell them. Mom'll make your ears bleed." He turned his face away from Reid, coughing into his hand and then having to wipe the blood away from his palm on his jeans. You knew this was serious if Reid was going to call his parents voluntarily.

He glanced over at Reid, wiping away the corner of his mouth. "Gee, thanks for the concern, man." He knew that they didn't want to lose him but, the way he put it, it really just sounded like they couldn't lose another line of power. "My dad's gonna see me and tell my mom. Don't you think he would have warned us? I mean, seriously, something like this would have come with a heads up." His dad would take one look at him and that would be that. His mom would get involved and all hell would break loose Tyler had been hiding this for too long. It'd been nearly a week since he'd started bleeding. A week! It got worse every day. "I'm gonna die and then whoever's doing this is going to go after you guys." He had been thinking about this a lot, lately, and that was the conclusion he had come to.

"I hope whoever is doing this gets the balls to come after us directly instead of hiding behind spells." Reid said his face clearly showing that he wanted nothing more than to fight the attacker one on one and make him pay for all of the pain he had been bring his covenant. "God I am not looking foward to this phone call I don't know why your worried I'm the one thats going to get bitched at your the sick one therefore the victim." Reid said with a sigh as he pulled out his cell and dialed the first few numbers only to close it before he could finish dialing. "I'll get Caleb to do it he's better at this sort of crap than I am." Reid said helping his friend to the door.

"Dude you better not get blood on me because that would just be fucking gross." Reid said trying to lighten the mood by being the same old Reid worried more about himself than anyone else. Although he couldn't hide it to well the bad ass of the ipswich boys was geniunely worried for Tyler.

"Yeah," he agreed weakly. Anything to try and calm Reid down in the slightest bit would be good enough for him. Tyler wasn't so sure that he wanted Reid to go after this guy. If whoever it was could do something like this to him indirectly, just think of how bad ass he'd be face to face! Putting his friends at risk like that... "Bitch," he chuckled weakly at him before breaking down into another round of coughing and wiping his mouth. Everyone was afraid of his mom, it was just one of those things that you could be okay with admitting to because she was just that scary. "Only because mom likes him more. 'He's more responsible'." It was true, his mother saw Caleb as being more responsible and Reid was just that wild boy.

Tyler rolled his eyes, fighting the urge to wipe his mouth on the sleeve of the shirt. "Get some Shout and you'll be fine." He felt as if he was going to collapse and Tyler found relief when his Hummer was finally in sight. "Here," he handed over the keys to Reid, something that he didn't often feel comfortable doing.

OOC: Guess we can close it after this and I guess it technically starts at the hospital thread we already got going.

"Shut up." Reid said taking Tyler's keys and quickly texting Caleb, and Pouge about the situation at hand. He then helped Tyler into the passenger seat closing the door he jogged over the the driver's seat and drove as quickly as he could to the hospital he had to find out what was wrong with Tyler.
