Summary
Jamie collapses at training the day before an away game far from home, running a fever, and somehow this ends up being Roy's problem. And Ted's, when he persuades Roy to take it in shifts. It's both of their problem, though it's a problem for them in different ways.
Ted struggles to keep the feeling of being helpless from sending him too deep into his own head to stay where he's needed. His experience as a parent both helps and doesn't.
As for Roy, hating Jamie was a lot simpler than caring about him is. Taking care of him? Roy doesn't have a clue where he got the idea he was competent enough to do that. Especially when it feels like all he does is mess it up.
(or: every fandom deserves at LEAST one tropey mess of a sickfic. here's one for us.)

I read this in one sitting. I did not plan to. I planned to break it up into smaller chunks. The author is just that skilled. Obsessed with the way the author just. Understands these dynamics so fully. And it's a REALLY good sickfic.

“He’s burning up. Think he’s got a fever,” Isaac says without looking up. He rubs the hand over Jamie’s sternum harder, raising his voice. “Come on, bruv, you gotta wake up. Come on. Let’s go. No sleeping on the job.”

While Roy watches, Will walks over with a few bottles of water, handing them to Tom, who lifts one in a ‘cheers’ sort of move. Water in hand, Tom turns to persuade Jamie to take it. Jamie’s turned away from him, posture a tired slump with his forehead pressed to Thierry’s shoulder. It takes some doing but he eventually sits up and accepts.
