[#237] Needed Support (Alex Rider)
Theme Prompt: Hangover
Title: Needed Support
Fandom: Alex Rider
Bonus: Yes
Word Count: 283
Author's notes: Oops, only just noticed I was past the deadline. Still sharing if that's okay?
Summary: Tom isn't feeling well. Alex is happy he finally gets to give back.
“Listen, I already told you I’m fine!”
Alex looked at Tom again. Really looked this time, not the cursory glance he’d thrown earlier as he walked into their apartment. He couldn’t tell whether Tom’s eyes were bloodshot or not, mostly because the other boy was squinting like the light was paining him. Alex pulled back the curtains a little, noting the relieved groan it provoked in his friend.
That coupled with his absolutely horrendous current posture and…
“Mate are you hungover!”
A wide grin spread over his face as Alex gently closed the door. Hungover! Tom!!
This was the highlight of Alex’s day and he’d gotten a free coffee that very morning.
Tom mumbled something Alex couldn’t hear so he got closer to the bed. “Can you repeat that?”
“Could you sound any less gleeful about it?” Tom complained, pulling his head out of his covers just enough to glare at Alex.
Alex couldn’t stop smiling though, and Tom was gonna have to deal with it.
“It’s not often I get to play nursemaid to you, you know?”
He’d never quite been able to thank Tom for his support over the years, and Tom lived such a normal life he never needed anything.
“But I’m fine, Alex, seriously, you don’t need to-“
“So just let me enjoy it. Please.”
“I’m fine! I’m…” Tom sighed, and looked at a face Alex had arranged to be as piteous as possible.
“Not fine,” Tom finished, defeated, burying his head back into his covers. “Do your worst buddy.”
And Alex had a host of things he’d just been waiting to try. In this way, at least, he could give back to his best friend.
