Chapter 12

I wake up with a groan, Curtis has shaken me awake saying "Come on, the soup is ready and I got you a bowl, you have to eat". I glare at the bowl on the coffee table and I contemplate throwing it, I am grumpy when I am sick. Curtis must be able to tell what I am thinking because he says "If you throw or drop that bowl you are going over my knee", I blush at hearing that, I still get embarrassed when ever Curtis threatens to or does spank me. I just lay my head back down on the pillow on the couch and attempt to go back to sleep, "Come on Erik, you have to eat, even if it is just a little" Curtis says, I just sit up and look at the bowl of chicken soup, it is chopped carrots, celery, rice, chunks of chicken, some kind of noodle, and really small pieces of onion. The soup looks and smells good but I don't want to eat so I just stare at the bowl.

Curtis sighs and says "Do I have to feed you?", I shake my head in response, "Then eat" Curtis says, I let out a small groan because I don't want to eat. I pick up the bowl and stare at the soup, I get a spoonful of soup and put it in my mouth, I chew everything and it tastes good, I swallow and my stomach feels a little better, I eat three more spoonfuls before stopping, "Can you eat a little more? Just a few more spoonfuls and I will let you get back to sleep" Curtis says, I nod and eat six more spoonfuls making ten in total. Curtis says "Thank you" and takes my bowl into the kitchen, then I lay back down and cover up, I am asleep in seconds, it is easy for me to sleep when I am sick.

When I wake up it is because Curtis has shaken me awake again saying I have to take medicine, so I say "I am not taking any nasty medicine", "Your voice still sounds bad, and yes you are taking the medicine unless you want a sore bottom, so take your medicine" Curtis says, "No" I reply, "Erik, please take the medicine, I dont want to spank you but if I have to I will" Curtis says and holds the spoonful of medicine in front of me, I just turn my head away, Curtis sighs and says "Fine, if this is how you want things to go", then he sets the spoonful of medicine down and pulls me over his knee. Curtis smacks my bottom five times before saying "Are you going to take your medicine?", "NO!" I snap even though my throat cant handle it. Curtis gives me six sharp smacks to my upper thighs, it hurt really bad since it is a sensitive area. Before Curtis can land any other swats I cry "Okay! I'll take the medicine", "Good boy" Curtis says as he makes me sit on his lap and hugs me for about a minute, then he holds the spoonful of medicine in front of me and I take the awful stuff. "Okay, bedtime, lets get you upstairs" Curtis says as he picks me up and carries me up the stairs to his room, I don't know why to his room so I give him a confused look and he says "I want to keep an eye on you till you are better". Curtis sets me down on his bed and covers me with the blanket, then he says "I am going downstairs to clean up a little, then I will be back up here. Okay?", I just nod and fall asleep.

When I wake up I have the feeling I am going to throw up again, I start to gag because it is a strong feeling. I stand and, even though it is very difficult, make it to the bathroom where I pray to Dionysus. I feel terrible, once I am done I sit leaning against the wall. I sit doing nothing for about two minutes before I puke again, I groan because my stomach hurts really badly and my face feels hot. "Erik, are you okay?" I hear Curtis ask, I look at him through blurry eyes and shake my head and hold my stomach. "Are you done?" Curtis asks me, my stomach feel terrible, it has a sharp pain but I don't feel like throwing up so I just nod and try to stand, but once I am half way standing I fall down, I am to weak to stand. Curtis walks over and picks me up saying "Lets get you back to bed and then you are taking some medicine", "Please don't make me take medicine" I whine, "You need the medicine to help you feel better" Curtis says as he sets me down on the bed and covers me up again with the blanket then leaves. When he comes back he is holding that damn bottle of medicine and a spoon. Curtis sits down next to me on the bed and holds a spoonful of medicine in front of me, "Here, take this and you will feel better", I just stare at it, "Do I need to remind you of what happens when you don't take your medicine?" Curtis asks, I quickly shake my head and take the medicine. Curtis makes me lay down and I try to sleep, but I am to cold. After a little bit I start to shake, Curtis must be able to feel it because he says "Are you cold?", I don't say anything, just nod. Curtis wraps his arms around me in a warm embrace and soon I fall asleep.
