my teacher

chapter 94

I walk into our bedroom. Everyone is still downstairs but I wanted to check on him.

"Hi honey, are you okay?" I climb next to him on the bed. "Baby, you asleep?" I put my hand on his cheek. "Mhm" he shakes his head. He opens his eyes slowly.

"Can you get my mom please?" He asks. "Your mom?" I ask. "Yes, I want my mommy.. don't make fun of me" he rolls his eyes. "I wasn't going to, derek" I say. "Oh, sorry" he says.

I go downstairs. "Carolyn, he wants you" I say. She gets up. I follow her upstairs.

She sits next to him. "I feel sick" he says. "I know" she says. "Make it better" He groans. She chuckles softly. "I'm not a magician, honey" she hugs him. He hugs her back.

"Mer, here now" He says. I grin, climbing the other side of him. I hug him too.

"He's an absolute drama queen when he's ill" I say. "Hey! I'm really not feeling well" He says.

"But you're well enough to stick your tongue down merediths throat" Carolyn says. "Hey!" I say. "I'm always well enough for that" he smirks. We both hit him.

"Please.. I'm really ill, stop being mean to me" he says. "Sorry" Carolyn says. "Sorry sweetie" I kiss his cheek.

"What do you want derek? Paracetamol? Food?" Carol asks. "Paracetamol please" he says. She gets up and goes.

"Honey, seriously.. are you alright?" I put my hands on his cheeks. He nods. "I feel dizzy" he says. "Okay, I'm ringing my mom.. she's in town" I grab my phone. "I don't need a doctor" he rolls his eyes.

I call my mom and she's over in 15 minutes. Carolyn cleared everyone out in this time and she left too. "Honey, he's fine.. there's a sickness bug going around, it's most likely that" she says. "Okay" I say.

I lean down and kiss his cheek a bunch of times softly. "I can't believe you called me all the way over here for this" she says. "I told her not to" he says. "I was worried" I say.

"You really love him, don't you?" She smiles. "Yeah" I giggle. "You're a pain in my ass" she says. I hug her. "Thanks for coming mom" I say. "Of course" she says. We pull away.

"Stay here tonight.. spare bed is made" I say. "Thanks" she says. I grab her some of my pyjamas. "Wear these" I say. "Thankyou" she smiles. "Night" I say. "Night" she smiles. She goes to the spare room.

I go to the bathroom and grab a cloth. I wet it and go back to the bedroom. I sit next to him, holding it to his head.

"How do you feel?" I ask. "Like crap" he says. "I feel terrible.. I'm so sorry for teasing you" I say. "Its okay" he smiles small.

He lays down. I get up and pull off my clothes. I change into one of his t-shirts. I climb into bed next to him. He hugs me tight. I cuddle into him. "I hope you feel better soon" I say. "Me too" he sighs.

"I love you" I kiss him. "I love you" he says. "Goodnight" I whisper. "Night" he says. I close my eyes. I gently push my face into his shoulder. I soon fall asleep.
