The Wife

Chapter 35: Sick Day

Beyoncé P.O.V.

I paced the small space Kelly and I were put in as we waited to be checked out in the ER. Not only did Kelly faint, but after waking up she broke out in a cold sweat and had said that she felt nauseous So I decided we should probably get her checked out.

"Beyoncé?" I stopped in my tracks and went over to Kelly's bed side.

"Hey, Are you okay? Do you need anything?" I ask concerned.

"Your pacing was making me dizzy" she said taking my hand and intertwining her fingers into mine.

"Sorry, I'm just worried about you that's all"

A few minutes later, A nurse finally was able to check us out, I explained in detail about what happened and mentioned Kelly's symptoms before and after she passed out.

The nurse had done the routine thing of checking her breathing, her heart and her blood pressure. She also had to draw blood just to be sure.

"Soo it looks like you have a bout of the flu brought on by stress, your blood pressure is slightly high which could be a problem if that gets any higher then it should be" she explained.

"The flu? That's it? Are you sure?" I asked abruptly.

"Everything else seems fine, vitals looks normal, heart beat looks good, just the blood pressure and the clear signs of influenza that is worrying, Honestly I hate saying this but there's not I can do but I can give you some antibiotics to stop any on-going infection and recommend you get plenty of rest these next week or so"

"A Week?" Kelly wheezed trying to get into a sitting position. I lightly pushed her back to laying down.

"I'll make sure she gets plenty of rest" I said.

"Ugh this sucks" Kelly said sounding annoyed.

"When can we go home?" I ask turning my attention to the nurse. Mentally rolling my eyes at Kelly, her health is way more important then us getting married.

"We can get you out of here as soon as possible, let me go write a prescription for the antibiotics your gonna wanna take and you should be all set" she said writing something on her clipboard as she walked away.

"Thank you" I called out.

After getting Kelly's antibiotics from the pharmacy, we eventually made it home. It was late by now, I could tell by Kelly's silence that she was thinking. Pretty sure she was also slightly disappointed about how today had gone down. I don't blame her for being upset.

I usher Kelly into the house and shut the garage door before we went in.

Once we got in the house Kelly weakly kicked her shoes off and pushed them by the door that goes into the garage.

"Heyy, your home" I heard my sisters cheery voice say as she came up to us. "How'd it go at the hospital"

Kelly rolled her eyes, crossing her arms over her stomach, "I have the flu apparently" Kelly trudged past Solange without saying anything else about the ER visit.

"I'll be upstairs in a minute Kells!" I call out to her.

"What happened?" Solo asked turning back to me.

"Flu brought on by stress and high blood pressure" I replied shrugging.

Solange raised her eyebrows, "Wow your fiancé who can't not stress to save her life, has high blood pressure that's a shock of the century" she said clearly being sarcastic.
