You started feeling kind of sick Monday morning. You coughed up some green mucus that morning and got grossed out. You had some cough medicine in the bathroom as you took some before making your way downstairs. Your mom noticed something was off almost immediately but you just brushed it off. That night she came home and you were exhausted. You went to bed soon after practice and told your parents that you didn't have a good night sleep last night.
When you woke up the next morning you felt even worse. You took more medicine and continued on with your day. Your chest was aching when you coughed and you felt too tired to do anything. Thankfully you had no practice tonight because the basketball team needed the gym. On Wednesday you felt horrendous. You go downstairs and your dad tells you that mom was called away for a case after you fell asleep. He also asked you if you were okay to which you insisted you were fine.
You go to practice but still felt awful. You only had to get through 3 more practices and then it was the weekend where you will relax all weekend and hopefully fight off this cold.
You were on the beam first today. You were perfecting your routine and you felt most confident on it. You hop up on the beam and start your routine. As you do your split jump and land, you felt very wobbly. You brush it off as you continue with your routine. Your coach was yelling at you because it looked sloppy. You wanted to cry but you were nearly finished your routine. Your final step was an arial off the beam. It was clean until the landing as you ended you not being able to stick it and you fall on your butt. Your friends start asking you if you were okay but you assured them you were fine. You just wanted practice to be over already.
You then went to the bars and before even starting your routine, your coach made you do L hangs from the bar. She only did this when you were in a bad mood. Your core felt like jelly as you couldn't keep your legs up. Your chest had a sharp ache as you brushed it off. You get a break and grab some water before you start your bars routine. You were getting the hang of the bars routine but it felt much harder than usual. It took you a few tries but you got the routine down without a bunch of errors. Every time you would fall off the bar, your coach would make you start again.
She finally let you stretch and cool down before leaving. You see your dad was parked outside as you make your way to the car. You felt exhausted and weak as you hopped into the car. "Hey Bella"
your dad says as you give him your fake smile. He looks at you and his whole face changes. "Isabella what's wrong?" he asks seriously. "I just had a bad practice that's all" "You look like a ghost" he says as you turn and face the window so he can't keep profiling you.Your dad pulls into the driveway as you slowly made your way to the door. "Where's Henry and Michael?" you ask as you notice the house was unusually quiet. "Henry is at a friends house and Michael is working on a school project with the neighbours." he says as you nod.
You slowly make your way up to your bedroom as you get out of your clothes. You were super sweaty as you quickly hop in the shower. You took a quick shower before hopping out and throwing on your leggings and sweatshirt. You see your old tinker belle blanket as you throw that around your body before making your way back downstairs.
Your dad used to call you tinkerbelle when you were younger. As you both are short with blonde hair. Dad also says that your eyes are as green as her dress.
Your dad sees you as he smiles. He opens his arms out as you make your way over to him and you fall asleep in his arms almost immediately. You were exhausted. You feel your dads hand on your forehead but you choose to ignore it before you started wheezing as it felt uncomfortable. Your dad jumps up and grabs the thermometer. He checks your temp as you hear him begin to panic.
"Come on Bella, we are going to the hospital" he says as you nod. You follow him to the car as he starts driving. He calls your mom and after a few rings she picks up. "Hey Will everything alright?" she asks. "No Bella is wheezing and has a temperature of 103, I'm taking her to the hospital now." Your dad says as you were slightly in shock. "Okay, I'll book a flight back home now. See you soon" she says before hanging up.
Your dad parks before you both enter the ER. You were waiting there for a while before a doctor finally checks on you. She asks what's wrong as your dad tells her about the fever and wheezing. She then asks you when you started feeling ill. "It's been going on for a few days now. I thought it was a cold or something but it seems to be getting worse" you say as she nods. She puts on her stethoscope before she tells you that she is going to check your lungs. She asks you to breathe in and out multiple times as she moves the stethoscope around your back. "Alright both lungs definitely sound a little weak. I would like to get a chest X-ray to see what we are dealing with" she says as your dad nods.
She does a chest X-ray before she moves you to another room. This room was bigger as you looked at your dad anxiously. You lay in the hospital bed as the nurse leaves and comes back in two seconds later with an IV. You turn to your dad as he takes your hand. The nurse comes over and places the needle through your arm before adding an oxygen mask. It felt very strange but it was the first time in days that you were able to take a proper breathe. You pass out almost immediately as you haven't felt this comfortable in days.
You wake up and see your dad was holding your hand. "Hey sleepy" he says as you smile. A nurse came back in soon after and checked your lungs again. She wrote something down before coming back with a bowl. She took off your oxygen mask as you started eating the soup. You knew right away it was chicken soup as the warm broth flows down your throat. You finish it almost immediately before the nurse comes back to collect the bowl and spoon. You thank her before she checks your lungs. "We should be able to keep the oxygen mask off for a few hours but will put it on again before she goes to sleep" the nurse tells your dad as he nods.
You both just sit there in the quiet before you see the door suddenly open. Henry and Michael run in as your mom follows them in soon after. "Oh Isabella what happened?" She says as she looks at you with guilt written all over her face. She gives you a big hug as she carefully avoids your abdomen as well as a kiss in your forehead. "I'm okay mom" you say with a smile. She rolls her eyes as she takes your chin. "You're always okay" she says as you give her a smile back. She then goes over to your dad and gives him a big hug
"Thanks for calling me" she says as your dad smiles. "Of course I would call you jayge" he says as she nods. "I'm just going to flag down a nurse and talk to the doctor" she says before quickly exiting the room. Your brothers were playing chopsticks as your mom walks in again 20 minutes later. "Nurses just told me that visiting hours end shortly" she says as you look sad. "By Henry, bye Michael" you say as they both say bye to you. Your dad stays seated as your mom gives him her classic look. "Jayge you just came back from work and haven't slept in hours. Let me stay here with Bella while you get a proper nights rest." He says as she raises her eyebrow. "You have work early tomorrow and there is no way you are going to get a goodnight sleep here." She says. "See you tomorrow Bella" your dad says as he kisses your forehead before leaving with your brothers.
Your mom smiles as the nurse comes in. "And you are planning on staying the night?" She asks kindly as your mom tells her yes. She leaves before coming back with a cot. It didn't look that comfortable but your mom didn't seem to care. "Mom I need to go to the bathroom" you say as she helps you up. Your legs felt like jelly as you felt super dizzy. You make it to the bathroom before your mom helps you back to bed. The nurse then comes in and puts the oxygen mask back on. "Thank you" your mom says before you soon fall asleep.
You wake up the next morning and see your mom was already awake. She had some yoghurt and fruit in her hand as she lets a nurse know you were awake. The nurse takes off your mask before you start eating. You and your mom just watched crappy shows on the tv as the nurses checked on you throughout the day. Your dad comes with your brothers at 5 and after much convincing your dad gets your mom to go home and get a proper nights sleep. That night, you slept on your dad lap the whole time. You wake up and see your mom was sitting next to you.
"Hey Bella we got some visitors if that's alright" your mom says the next morning as you nod. Suddenly the whole team walks in as you smile. Hotch brought Jack with him as Henry and Michael both go to Jack. Hotch takes them out to the playground in the hospital to play for a bit. The whole team gives you cards and gifts. With Penelope going overboard and splurging on cuddly toys for you-courtesy of Rossi.
You could smell Rossi's lasagna as the whole team happily shared it amongst eachother. It was really nice not having to eat hospital food. There was more crappy tv shows in the back as you all watches or talks. The whole team stays before you end up falling back asleep still cuddled on your dad's lap. You wake up as your mom tells you that you are getting discharged. But that you were on strict bed rest. You somehow managed to convince them to let you sleep in their bed until you felt better.
