“Anything is fine by me, but we should get you some proper meals Carlos.” Cecil responded.

Carlos just shrugged slightly. “Well, I usually just eat enough to function. But I know you’re not used to that… Like I said, it’s a habit I developed from college.”

“That doesn’t make it very healthy,” he said. Perhaps he had been spending too much time with his Niece or Old Woman Josie, in Carlos’s absence but he felt the need to make sure he was keeping a good diet.

Carlos chuckled. “No, probably not,” he admitted. “I guess you can start thinking about what else we could make. Wheat’s legal here, so our options are wider than usual.”

Cecil tried to come up with some food ideas that would be fairly simple to make. He adds chickpeas, some assorted vegetables, and a few.other things.

The drive to the store was longer than it would have been back home, but Carlos didn’t mind in the slightest. He was pretty happy to have Cecil with him.

Once at the store Carlos parked without incident – very different from Night Vale. It was kind of refreshing, if he were honest.

Cecil held Carlos’s hand as they walked into the store so they could get their snacks and a few meal things that would not be hard to repair and didn’t need to be refrigerated .

Carlos picked out the hot dogs and buns as well as a few condiments that he liked. Dill relish was one of his favorites.

“You know, the best part about hot dogs is that we can just stick them and then roast them over a fire. Not much cooking skill required other than ‘put the fire out’.”

“Sounds nice and easy to me,” Cecil said, picking up the rest of the items on his list. It wasn’t hard as truthfully there wasn’t that much on the list.

“Awesome,” Carlos said with a grin. “How are we doing? Do we have everything? Ooh, the party mix chocolate is on sale…”

Carlos wasn’t sure where his cough came from. It didn’t feel like allergies, but it was deep in his chest. In his lungs. Carlos wasn’t sure what was going on.

Until he started to cough up red and a flower petal while sitting at the table with Cecil. He knew what it was, but he was still confused. He looked to Cecil, not understanding and a more than a little scared.

When
Cecil received his text, a small smile formed onto his face. He debated
his next text but he really needed to know for the show tonight.

‘Could I ask a question? It’s for tonight -Cecil’

Ugh. Carlos really wasn’t in the mood for a chat. But that wasn’t Cecil’s fault.

‘Sure. I’ll answer as best I can. -Carlos’

Carlos wasn’t sure where his cough came from. It didn’t feel like allergies, but it was deep in his chest. In his lungs. Carlos wasn’t sure what was going on.

Until he started to cough up red and a flower petal while sitting at the table with Cecil. He knew what it was, but he was still confused. He looked to Cecil, not understanding and a more than a little scared.

“Yes
he was, but we called it off early because he got sick. He was coughing
rather badly.. I wanted to check in to make sure he was ok. When he
wakes up could you give him this?” Cecil hands Jake the pastry. He was
still wondering about how Carlos was doing.

“Could you message me if he gets any worse or if he needs anything? I can leave my number with you-”

The younger man nodded. “Yeah, sure,” he said. He took the pastry and pulled out his phone. “What’s your number? I’ll send you a text so you can add me to your contacts too.” He unlocked the phone and opened up his messages.

Cecil told him his number, adding Jake to his contacts as well.

“I better get going to work, but don’t hesitate to text me if Carlos needs anything. If I can’t go I can send an intern!”

Jake nodded. “Sure thing, Cecil! I’ll go check on him. Have a good day at work! Or at least a safe day!”

Cecil nods, before waving and going back to his car. He did have to go into work just a bit earlier to introduce himself to the newest intern and feed Khoshekh.

Jake went up to the apartment above the lab and roused Carlos with a knock at the door. Carlos was… less than pleased about the gift from Cecil. He managed to stifle his coughing until Jake left and Carlos let loose, hurrying over to the sink when he feared that he was going to be ill. Luckily, it was only a handful of petals and a lot of pigment, but Carlos was still miserable.

Cecil was not helping with this treatment Carlos had decided on. But he couldn’t blame the guy – Carlos hadn’t told him anything. And he wasn’t going to tell him for as long as he could.

Cecil was worried about Carlos but had to plan for tonight’s show. He wondered if Carlos would listen to his show tonight and if he would even be up to it. He spoke with the interns a bit before going into the washroom to feed Khoshekh and some of the kittens.

Cecil tapped nervously on his desk as he drank his coffee. He hadn’t heard back from Carlos yet this morning, and he had started hearing some startling news of a new strain of Hanaki going around. He wasn’t entirely sure what it entailed but he would likely have to report on it tonight. He debated asking Carlos his scientific opinion.

Carlos decided to shoot Cecil a quick text. Just a ‘thank you’, because he knew that the other man was just trying to be a good friend.

‘Thanks for breakfast. -Carlos’
