"Yeah, your father was a baby when he was sick as well."
Fred sniffled, reaching for the Pepperup potion Lee held out to him. "My dad?"
He sometimes forgot that Lee had been in school with his dad and uncle. Considering how long the two of them had been together, Fred actually tended to forget how much older than him Lee actually was. Holding his breath, he downed the potion in one go. He could hear Lee snickering as his face turned red and steam issued from his ears.
"Oh, shut-up."
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, Lee smiled. He ran a hand down Fred's arm to lace their fingers together.
"Have a bit of a rest. I'll baby you later, when you wake up."
Blinking sleepily up at him, Fred had to smile when Lee bent to press their lips together. He squeezed the hand he still held.
"Thanks."
Lee's responding smile was the last thing he saw before sleep claimed him.
