[Y/N POV]

I woke up later than usual which was really odd for me. Mainly because I thought I was getting into a routine.

But this particular morning, I felt really rubbish.

Diana: Don't get up Y/N.

I look across and see Diana sat down next to me in her uniform, gently running her fingers through my hair.

Y/N: W-what time is it?

Diana: That doesn't matter. Our lessons haven't started yet for today and you are in no position to get up and work.

She felt my forehead and moved her hand down to my cheek.

Diana: You have a fever. And you're swearing quite a bit.

Y/N: I-I feel terrible...

Diana: You must have caught a cold or something while working. Were you feeling ok yesterday?

Y/N: I-I h-had a little bit of a sore throat, but that was only when I got up. A-after that I felt fine...

Diana: Well this must have developed overnight then.

I try to sit up, but was pushed back down by Diana.

Diana: No. You have to stay here and rest. There is no way that you can move around and don't even think about saying you have to go and work.

To be honest, she was right in saying that I would say I needed to work. I couldn't let the school down.

But if I was sick then I had no choice but to rest and get better.

Y/N: Y-yeah i-it would have been stupid if I went out to work...I-I can't believe I was about to protest...

Diana: I know how much you care about this job my love. But you cannot help it when you end up getting sick. It was bound to happen anyway.

She lays herself down next to me and leans her head on my shoulder.

Y/N: Y-you m-might get sick if lay next to me...

Diana: I don't care if I get sick. This is a school Y/N. People get sick all the time and it spreads really fast.

She was right. At the end of the day this was a school just like any other.

Diana: I don't really want to leave you here by yourself, but I have to go and keep up with my studies. Perhaps I can cut back on my studying while you get better.

Y/N: D-Don't feel compelled to drop everything and help me...y-you focus on yourself Diana...I-I'll be fine.

Diana: But what if I want to? Surely you won't stop me from doing something I want to.

I look at her and shake my head before she smiles and leans closer.

Diana: Thought so...

She leaned in and gently kissed me. She knew full well that she would most likely get sick from kissing me, but she couldn't care less.

So I assumed...

Diana: I will be back later. Oh, and I'll tell the nurse about what's wrong and hopefully we can get you some medicine.

Y/N: Thanks hun...

Diana: You're welcome my love...

She kisses me gently once more and pushes herself up.

Diana: I will be back later to come and check on you. Probably at lunch time, so I can bring you some food.

I just nod my head and turn myself over. The best way for me to pass the time would just be to sleep.
