One Of The Selected (Sophitz)

Chapter 8

I woke up to the sound of several voices. 

"They're so cute!" 

"Shhh you'll wake them," another said. I opened my eyes to see Biana, Alden, and Della in the room. 

"Good morning dear. Did you sleep well?" Della asked. I tried to sit up but Fitz's arm around me prevented me from doing so. 

"Just fine, thank you. What are you guys doing here?" I ask, rubbing my eyes. 

"I came here to wake Fitz but I found you too. And then my mom came in here and then called dad and here we are," Biana explained. I then coughed, but it sounded muffled since I coughed in my elbow. 

"Are you okay dear?" I shrug and put a hand on my temple. 

"Kind of. I'm not feeling the best right now. I'm feeling a bit dizzy," Della put a hand on my forehead. 

"You're feeling a bit warm. I'll take you too your room," Della said. I turned to Fitz and shook him awake. 

"Fitz wake up." he stirred in his sleep, and opened his eyes. 

"Why are you guys in my room?" 

"I'll tell you later, but I'm not feeling so good, can you please let go?" he nodded. 

"I'll see you after breakfast," he said and I nodded as me and Della headed out the door. She walked me into my room where the girls were cleaning some things. They all bowed. 

"No need for that girls. Sophie isn't feeling so good so I would love it if you girls could put a bucket or bin besides her just in case." All the girls nodded in response. 

"Thank you. Now feel better, I'll be bringing some tea and some soup later," I smiled. 

"Thank you Della," Della smiled and made her way to the door. 

"No problem sweetheart I'll be back later!" she left the room and I slipped in under my covers and the girls set a bucket next to my bed. 

"So tell us. We knew you were with Fitz all night yesterday so spill." I coughed. 

"We just watched a movie," I simply said. 

"Elaborate please," then  put my hand on my stomach and I had a weird feeling. The girls knew immediately knew and gave me the bucket. I threw up in the bucket and once I finished I set it down. Mary came in and gave me a plastic cup and my tooth brush already toothpaste on it. I brushed my teeth and spit in the cup. 

"Thanks girls," Tiffany patted my shoulder. 

"Not to worry just feel better," she smiled. 

"Can you pass me that book?" Amelia nodded and grabbed it, handing it to me. 

"Thanks." I opened to the page that I left on and I don't know how long I read for because I heard a knock on the door. I coughed before letting the person in. Fitz and Della appeared. Della came in with a tray with a bowl of soup and a cup full of tea while Fitz rushed to my side, holding my hand. 

"Are you okay? Are you thirsty? Are you hungry? Are you cold? Are you hot? Are you going to live?" 

"Fitz calm down, don't worry I'm going to be fine. It's just a cold," I said. 

"But you still need to visit Elwin," he said. Elwin was the nurse in Everglen. 

"You don't have to do that Fitz." 

"Yes I do. I'm taking you later," I roll my eyes at his stubbornness. 

"Fine," I mumble. 

"Here's some soup and a cup of honey lemon tea," Della explained.
