I own nothing

Connor swallowed nervously.

"Answer me, young man," said the voice.

Connor gulped this time and scratched the back of his head.

"Umm...hi grandpa," Connor greeted with a nervous smile. "How are you?"

Edward Kenway did not smile back. He crossed his arms as he walked over to his grandson. Then, he placed the back of his hand on Connor's forehead. Connor blushed.

"I'm fine grandpa," he muttered, pushing Edward's hand away. "Really, I am."

"You deliberately disobeyed your father," said Edward, ignoring Connor, "after he told you not to go outside."

"I know," said Connor, "but I was just so tired of being inside."

Edward sighed.

"Wait here."

Then, he left the kitchen. Connor winced while Desmond and Ezio looked scared.

"He's going to call dad," said Connor, raking his hand through his hair. "I'm screwed."

"We're all screwed," Desmond added.

Connor and Ezio looked at him with confusion on their faces.

"Why are we screwed?" Ezio asked.

"Think about it," said Desmond, pointing to his head with his right index finger. "If his dad finds out, he'll tell our parents and we won't be able see Connor until he's better."

Ezio winced. Then, Edward returned with the thermometer.

"Wait," said Connor, confused. "Aren't you going to call dad?"

Edward stuck the thermometer under Connor's tongue.

"Not right now," said Edward, crossing his arms.

A minute later, the thermometer was taken out of Connor's mouth.

"38.4°C," Edward read before putting the thermometer down. "Ok, it hasn't gotten any worse. Haytham will be happy to hear that when he comes home."

Now, the teenagers looked really confused.

"So, you're not going to call ?" Ezio asked.

"And not tell him Connor was outside when he wasn't suppose to?" Desmond added.

Edward shook his head.

"No," he answered, "I'm not."

The boys shared a smile.

"But," Edward continued, holding up one finger, "you have to behave or I will tell him. Is that clear?"

The boys nodded.

"Alright," said Edward clapping his hands together. "I know you three love your video games so how about you play some of those for a bit?"

"Ok," said Desmond, getting up.

"Sure," said Ezio, getting up as well.

"Ok, grandpa," said Connor, getting up.

"I'll be in there in a minute," Edward called as he grabbed a glass.

Connor didn't go into the living room. Instead, he stayed in the kitchen.

"Grandpa," said Connor as Edward turned on the sink, filling up the glass.

"Yes lad," said Edward, turning around and taking a sip.

"Did dad ask you to come here?" Connor asked.

Edward sighed and nodded.

"Yes, he did," he replied. "He just wanted to make sure you were resting."

Connor nodded.

"Also, he wanted me to inform you that he's going to be out for a while because of traffic so he wanted me to take your temperature and give you your medicine," Edward added.

"Ahh," Connor answered. "That makes sense."

"I never liked leaving Haytham home alone when he was sick either," said Edward before nodding towards the living room. "Now, lets join your friends."

Connor followed Edward out. He joined the game his friends were playing and had fun, for he knew that soon he would have to lie to his father.

Connor has a Fever.
Connor wakes up with a fever and Haytham has to take care of him. Unfortunately, Connor is stubborn and doesn't like to stay still.
