Sturniolo Triplets One Shots

Matt - Car Sick

In the sprawling chaos of Los Angeles traffic, the Sturniolo triplets embarked on what was supposed to be a routine drive, yet fate had other plans in store. Matt, the youngest of the triplets, gripped the steering wheel tightly, determined to navigate the labyrinth of highways with finesse. His older brothers, Nick and Chris, sat in the back, chatting animatedly about their plans for the evening.

As they delved deeper into the city's web of roads, Matt began to feel a queasiness gnawing at his stomach. The relentless motion of the vehicle coupled with the oppressive heat of the afternoon sun conspired against him, threatening to unleash a storm within.

Nick, ever observant, noticed the pallor creeping over Matt's face. "Hey, you alright there, Matt?" he inquired, concern lacing his words.

Matt, stubborn as ever, waved off his brother's worries. "I'm fine, just a little tired," he mumbled, his voice strained.

But fate, as it often does, ignored Matt's protests. Two seconds later, as if on cue, he doubled over, retching violently. The contents of his stomach, mingled with blood, splattered across the windshield, a gruesome tableau of his agony.

Horror painted Nick's features as he reached out, desperately trying to steady his brother. "Pull over, Matt! You need to stop!" he shouted, his voice tinged with urgency.

Chris, the mediator of the trio, leaned forward, a hand resting gently on Matt's back. "Easy there, Matt. Just breathe," he murmured, his tone soothing.

But Matt, struggling against the darkness creeping at the edges of his vision, could only gasp for air. The world spun around him, a dizzying whirlpool threatening to drag him under.

In a last-ditch effort, Chris threw himself across Matt's body, wrestling control of the car. With a screech of tires, they veered to the side of the road, narrowly avoiding disaster.

Nick, adrenaline coursing through his veins, took command of the situation. "I'll drive. Chris, help Matt in the back," he ordered, his voice steady despite the chaos.

Together, they maneuvered Matt into the backseat, his breathing shallow and labored. The car rumbled to life once more, the rhythmic hum of the engine a stark contrast to the turmoil within.

As they wound their way homeward, the city lights flickered like distant stars in the night sky. Nick glanced in the rearview mirror, meeting Chris's gaze with unspoken understanding. They would weather this storm together, as they always had.

Hours later, as the city slumbered beneath a blanket of darkness, the Sturniolo triplets sat in solemn vigil by Matt's bedside. The ordeal had left its mark, but they knew that together, they could overcome anything.

And as dawn broke over the horizon, casting its golden light upon the world, the triplets emerged from the shadows, stronger than ever before. For in the crucible of adversity, bonds forged in blood and brotherhood endured, a testament to the enduring power of family.
