The Secrets of Smosh (Maricorn)

Chapter 24 Mari

1 week later....

I look back on the plane trip with distaste. I felt like that since I got here, it's not going away. I've forgotten about it enough though to enjoy myself. Even though I've been here only one week, I feel like I know half the Spanish language. This total immersion shit totally works. I was rooming with Kalel and Melanie. They were pretty cool, like I've never really had a girlfriend before. Those other two, Anthony and Ian, other than David of course, have been keeping a smile on my face all week. It's impossible not to crack up whenever you're around both of them. I stared at myself in the mirror in our room, waiting for David's nightly knock. It came. I opened the door and he pulled me into the hallway. His hands firmly grasped my waist. I returned the grip to the back of his neck. Pain shot through my stomach, I cried out and crumpled against the wall. "Mari!" David yelled, excessively loud. It had already passed. "I'm fine, it was just a stomach pang, totally normal, really I'm fine," I assured him. He didn't look so sure. I kissed him goodnight. "I'm fine, don't worry about me and get some sleep. We're going zip lining tomorrow!" I was legitly excited for this, the sensation of flying through the air over a lush landscape seems like the most thrilling sensation known to man. I closed the door and smiled in spite of myself.

Two hours later, I woke up with major stomach pains again. They kept getting worse. I couldn't help it, I started crying out. Kalel was up immediately. "Oh my god. Mari, you need some medical help," she panicked. I couldn't answer, my screams just grew more shrill. She threw her arm around my waist and helped me to the door. "Go-.. David," I managed to choke out. She got it. She set me down against the door out in the hall. I wadded my shirt in my mouth to keep from waking the hotel. A minute later, she was back with David. His eyes literally bugged. He snaked his arms under me and lifted me into the air. Kalel went to the teachers door. "What is going on, what's with all the rack- what's wrong? Mari, are you okay?" The teacher started worrying. "She is clearly not okay," David snapped. The teacher quickly pulled out his phone and dialled the local emergency number. David hauled me out front to await the ambulance. I'm finding myself in these a lot as of recent. He got on with me.
