In the Heights

Sick

Benny sat on the couch in his tiny apartment, coughing. He checked his phone for something from Usnavi, but had gotten nothing. He sent him another text.

To: Navi

Hurry up...!

He coughed and yawned, giving his cat, Hamlet, a pet. He began thinking about Usnavi. Him and Usnavi had been dating for six months, and they had already been through so much together. Between blackouts and cats, Benny felt like he could spend every day with Usnavi. His thoughts were interrupted by Benny's boyfriend entering the apartment. Benny looked up at Usnavi, smiling slightly.

"Hey babe." Usnavi said, kissing Benny lightly.

"Ugh hey." Benny replied. "You don't want to kiss me. I'm sick."

"I could care less about germs."

"I know, but I do."

"Well, kiss me again to get used to it."

Benny laughed softly and kissed Usnavi gently, slowly. Usnavi kissed back. He smiled and wrapped his arms around Benny's waist.

"Why did I ever care about germs?" Benny asked softly, smiling.

Wow that was crappy. Sorry.
