Illinois's POV

I was laying in bed, I had caught a sickness when Idaho was found dead and buried in the mountains. The sickness I had caught got worse each hour from what it seemed like, I've had it for a week now and yesterday I've started loosing feeling of my legs and I can't walk anymore. I was awake my eyelids barely able to hold themselves open then I started coughing loudly and I covered my mouth with my arm then looked at it and saw blood and my arm started to tremble uncontrollably then it dropped and a black start appearing in splotches. I lost the feeling in my arm then I panicked and pulled the blanket off my legs with what strength I could in my right arm, my legs were covered in huge black splotches.

I felt tears well up in the corners of my eyes then I fell over onto my back my spine starting to hurt. I chocked out a quiet sob, "DAD!" I yelled as my eyelids try to force themselves shut then I heard hurried footsteps and my room door burst open, "I-Illinois what's w-wrong..... Illinois what happened to your body?! There's black spots all over it!" America yelled then he came over to me and sat on my bed and started examining my legs then gently pushed down on a black splotch the skin crumbling when he touched it. Dad's eyes started getting shiny with tears as they soon rolled down his face like a waterfall, "n-no, no I can't loose my child like this! N-not like he did." Dad said then looked at me and sat me up hugging me gentler than a summer breeze.

I looked at my arm where he touched, it crumbled and I had no reactions as I felt to weak to, I was getting weaker by the minute. Dad looked at me and my vision started getting blurry and his the words his was saying to me started getting muffled but I could see that he was crying and I felt my body crumble more but something he said came out loud and clear to me, "ILLINOIS LOOK AT ME! SAY SOMETHING GOD DAMNIT! I CAN'T LOOSE YOU LIKE THIS!" He yelled then his sobs got louder and he clung to me then someone entered the room then I felt as I felt my legs weren't there anymore. I soon heard the word 'no' being screamed at me with sobs as the blurriness soon faded from white to black and I heard my name be screamed at me.

I wake up and I look at myself, where all the black splotches were are now a pure snow white like it sucked the color out of my skin. I saw Idaho laying down next to me and I blushed then I turned on my side facing towards Idaho then I hugged him and he hugged me back and I smiled gently. I looked at Idaho and saw him wake up and he smiled at me and I blushed more, his smile was adorable then he booped my nose, "you're adorable." He said and I blushed more and huffed snuggling into his chest.
