Ezra woke with a headache and a sick feeling in his stomach.
He groaned and looked over his bunk to see an empty bed.
'Zeb must already be up' he thought.
He rolled on to his back taking deep breathes.
He knew exactly why he was feeling off.
He was sick.
Ezra wouldn't let that stop him from getting through his day.
He slowly made his way down the ladder and walked towards the common room.
"Finally decided to get up Sleeping Beauty?" Zeb teased.
Ezra glared at him.
Hera however, looked at the boy with concern.
"Are you feeling alright Ezra?" She asked.
"Fine" Ezra lied.
"Why do you ask?"
"You're looking pale" Hera remarked.
"I feel alright."
He gabbed a Yogan and sat beside Kanan.
The Jedi looked at his Padawan suspiciously.
He placed a hand on the boys forehead which Ezra shoved away. 
"You're warm" he commented.
"So what?" Ezra asked standing.
Sabine stood and went over to him.
Suddenly, Ezra's eyes closed. He swayed and collapsed
"Ezra!"
Sabine lunged forward and caught the boy before he could hit the ground.
Hera and Kanan were on their feet in an instant.
"I'll get some medicine. Kanan get him to his cabin" Hera instructed.
"Shouldn't I put him in mine? My room's right under the engine. It's warmer."
"Good point."
Kanan picked the boy up bridal style and carried him to his cabin.
The boy was shivering sightly and was barely conscious.
"Kanan..."
"Shh. It's okay kid. I've got you" Kanan soothed going into his cabin and placing Ezra on the lower bunk.
Ezra sighed as Kanan pulled a blanket over him.
"I'm sorry for getting sick" Ezra mumbled.
"What do you mean?"
"We have a huge mission coming up and I won't be able to do it."
"Hey. It's not your fault. We all get sick at some point. It's alright. You just focus on getting well okay?"
A coughing fit took hold of Ezra.
"Okay" he muttered.
"Good boy" Kanan smiled.
Hera came in with a bottle of medicine and a glass.
"This will sooth any headaches or stomach pains he has" she told him.
Kanan helped Ezra sit up while Hera poured the medicine in to the cup.
Ezra took it before shuddering and pulling a face.
"Sorry. I forgot to warn you about the taste" Hera said with a smile.
Ezra smacked his lips.
"Not the nicest stuff I've tasted" he said.
"Well it'll help" Kanan told him.
Hera stood.
"I need to get some work done. Call me if you need anything Ezra" she said.
Ezra smiled and nodded weakly.
Once she was gone Kanan also stood.
"Where you going?" Ezra's voice sounded so weak and pitiful that it tugged at Kanan's heartstrings. He looked down at the now curled up youth.
"Just leaving so you could rest."
"Oh." Ezra sounded disappointed at that. His eyes flicked up at the ceiling.
"Do you want me to stay?"
"I guess. I mean, if you want to."
Despite his attempts to hide it, hope flooded Ezra's features. Kanan smiled.
"I'm sure." He sat back down at the edge of the bed, right above Ezra's head. The boy squirmed so his head rested on Kanan's leg. The Jedi exhaled a chuckle, resting a hand on Ezra's head.
"Rest kid, I'm not going anywhere."

Awww!
Kanan and Ezra fluff!
