I had the best sleep last night and I have no idea why. I have an hour before classes start. However, Wednesday is not even up yet which is pretty unusual since she's always awake before me either getting ready or reading a book. For Wednesday's sake, I've decided to wake her up before she's late and hopefully I don't regret this.
"Wakey wakey" she said into her ear quietly
"Mhm," Wednesday said, turning her back on Enid
"Girl wake up you're gonna be late" she said walking over to Wednesday's closet gabbing her uniform
"I'm never late" Wednesday says rubbing the sleepiness out of her eyes standing up to quickly almost losing her balance.
"You okay? Maybe you should just stay in today. I'll just tell principal Weems you aren't feeling well" she says settling the uniform down and grabbing her bag.
"NO! I'm fine I'm just a tad bit tired that's all" Wednesday says putting on her uniform not bothering to change in the bathroom.
"Hey wow!" Her face grows red as she covers her eyes "give me a warning next time you're gonna change in front of me
"It's not that big of a deal we're both girls" she says sliding her shoes on
"Okay well I'm gonna head out to meet with Yoko and the others so I guess I'll see you in class" she says walking out.

I really hope what Enid said about Wednesday was an exaggeration because I can't help but feel terrible seeing my Wednesday sick. Walking through the halls of Nevermore does bring back memories though.
"No, I can't send you home just because a dog hit your balls Mat- Oh Morticia what a surprise! Sorry for that what brings you here this afternoon" Larisa says inching closer to her desk wondering why Morticia would be here on a random Thursday day.
"I've come to pick Wednesday up for a doctor's appointment cause I heard she's been feeling under the weather"
"That doesn't sound like her at all" Larissa crossed her legs "You sure this isn't one of her ways to escape?"
"No, I'm sure this isn't one of her escape plans" she shook her head "because it wasn't even her that told me she was feeling unwell, her roommate, Enid called me while she was out somewhere" her eyebrows now furrowed by concern
"Well I'll go ahead and excuse her from her classes for the rest of the day. Lunch is about to start, so grab her and head out. I hope everything turns out well," Larissa says with a reassuring smile
"Me too, thank you Larissa I hope to be seeing you soon" she says heading out to the courtyard standing in front of the fountain as the bell rings signaling it's time for lunch.
Wednesday took a while to get out to the courtyard due to all the students in the hallway. So she just waited till things calmed down. Her head was slightly hurting so she was hoping to head out into the forest to get some alone time. However, she noticed someone out of the corner of her eye. It was her mother.
Morticia knew as soon as Wednesday came into her view she wasn't feeling well at all. Her paleness was almost equal to her dead great grandmother's. Her body seemed to be giving up on her, as she wasn't walking in her usual posture. Her shoulders slumped and almost every step she took looked like it had an enormous weight on it. At this point Morticia just wanted to scoop her poor baby up and fix her up immediately. However, she knew she wouldn't appreciate the physical touch so she stood in her place as Wednesday walked over to her.
"Mother what are you doing here? Did Weems call? If so, I promise you I wasn't the one that let the dogs out into the academy" Wednesday said stiffly with a straight face
"I've come to pick you up" she started walking, Wednesday walking right behind her "I heard you were sick so I'm going to be taking you to the doctor and there is nothing you can do or say to get out of this" she said opening the car door for her
"I could've done that myself" Wednesday muttered as she got in
"You know I'm always here if you need help Wednesday, all you had to do was call me and me and your father would have been here in seconds" Morticia said sitting across her signaling Lurch to start driving
With all her anger, Wednesday seemed like she could start an earthquake.
"Who even told you I wasn't feeling well? Was it thing? Oh that backstabbing bitch" Wednesday said with an aggressive tone
"Language Wednesday" Morticia said seriously "but no it wasn't thing that told me"
Wednesday looks at her less aggressive
"So it was Enid, that backstabbing furry"
_______________________________________________
Morticia had decided to take Wednesday to a children's research hospital since this seemed way more serious than just a cold or fever. They had been in the waiting room for about thirty minutes till they finally got called in making her more anxious about her daughter's health.
Wednesday was instructed by the doctor to demonstrate her cough while listening to her lungs with a stethoscope. This is something Wednesday found kinda weird but understood why she needed to do it. The doctor then shined a tiny but very bright flashlight into her throat taking a close look.
"Your throat seems to be a bit inflamed" the doctor told them while writing it down on her clipboard "and when you breathe I can hear wheezing noises which could be something serious if we don't take a further look at that. So I'd like to get you a blood test right now and we'll send you to the 2nd floor for an x-ray on the chest to see if we can find anything that could be wrong"
Morticia couldn't help but feel sick of the fact that her daughter might have something seriously wrong with her health. Hopefully, it's nothing too serious. She didn't want her daughter to have to endure pain to survive.
Wednesday wasn't paying attention but just nodded trying to get out of here as soon as possible. The bright lights of the hospital were starting to make her headache worse.

Wednesday couldn't wait to get back to her dorm room and lay down. She had been sitting uncomfortably in a plastic uncomfortable chair for what seemed like hours to her. To be honest, she was disappointed with the experience of taking X-rays. They just had her move a couple times to find the right angle, informing them they would call her mother when they got the X-ray results back.
All that waiting just for them to take her to the pharmacy to pick up some cough syrup the doctor had prescribed for her.
"We're back at Nevermore, dear," Morticia said as she woke up Wednesday.
"I'll see you hopefully until summer, goodbye mother" she said making her way out of the car.
"Remember if you need anything just call me. Have a terrible day dear" Morticia said signaling Lurch to drive off

It's been about a day since Wednesday was taken to the hospital. She's been getting more anxious waiting for the doctor to call. At 9:47 pm, it finally happened.
The phone rang. She froze. She was nervous. She took a seat down on the couch they had in their room Gomez joining her as she answered the phone.
"Hello, this is Morticia Addams" she said shakily
"Good evening, this is Dr. Richardson from Children's Research Hospital. Is this the mother of Wednesday Addams?"
"Yes, yes it is" Morticia breathed out
