Kelly- A Sick Child And Wife

Kelly and I got married 6 years ago. We have 2 children Aniah who is 4 and Jordan who is 2 and we are currently trying for another. I woke up not feeling well today, sick, headache, sore throat. Unfortunately I know it's not morning sickness as I have started my period. I stay in bed a little longer this morning before I hear a little voice "Momma wake up" I feel little hands on my face "momma I want food" I open one eye to see my little girl Aniah staring at me. I groan sitting up "where's daddy?" I ask looking over to the empty side of the bed. He's not at work today
"With Jordan. He's sick"
"I think whatever Jordan has momma might have" I smile at her
"Oh no. Uncle Matt said when someone gets sick we all get sick" I chuckle at her
"Your uncle Matt doesn't know when to zip it does he?" I get out of bed and immediately have to run to the bathroom. I can hear Aniah shouting for Kelly and running down the stairs
"Daddy, daddy, mommas sick" I flush the toilet and go downstairs to see my husband cuddling our son on the couch who is wrapped up in a blanket with a bowl next to him
"Morning. How are you feeling?" Kelly looks up at me from the TV
"Sick" I chuckle
"I'm sorry baby" I sit next to Jordan and snuggle up to him "I'll make you a drink" Kelly gets up and walks into the kitchen. I lie back on the couch with Jordan in my arms and sooth him to sleep. I can hear slight mumbling coming from the kitchen. "Hey baby" I look up to see Kelly with a cup in his hand "I've rang Matt, him and Gabby are going to take Aniah out for the day and your brothers are coming over to me look after you and Jordan"
"Yay uncle Matt and auntie Gabby" Aniah starts dancing around
"They don't have to" I say
"I know but it will be really helpful"
"Is that why uncle Matt said everyone gets sick?"
"Yes sweetheart because we all look out for each other and help each other when we're sick"
"Aniah go upstairs and I'll come up to help you get changed" we watch as she runs up the stairs  "I'll take Jordan up to bed. Drink this tea and try to rest" I smile at Kelly as he scoops Jordan up in his arms and carries him up to bed. I can then hear giggling coming from upstairs, I'm guessing Aniah is getting dressed. I sip my tea and close my eyes.

Not long later I hear the door open. I look over to see my brothers and Kelly's best friends
"Hey sis how you feeling?" Will asks walking over to the couch and places a hand on my head
"Like shit. It's like morning sickness all over again but nothing to look forward to" I try to joke
"You are really warm. You wanna go up to bed?" I shake my head no and we hear little footsteps running down the stairs
"Auntie Gabby" Aniah yells making wince at the headache that has now fully set in
"Shhh Aniah your momma doesn't feel well" Gabby replies as she hugs her
"Sorry momma"
"It's ok baby. Have fun with Matt and Gabby" I smile at her. She walks over to me and kisses my cheek
"Feel better soon momma. I love you"
"I love you to angel" Kelly walks down the stairs carrying a bucket over to the kitchen
"Bye daddy"
"Bye sweetheart" we watch as everyone leaves
"Ok so Will you wanna take care of Jordan and I'll look after YN? Jay you wanna run to the store and grab some supplies?"
"Sure" Will smiles and takes the now clean bucket upstairs. Jay leaves with some money while sits on the couch, I lay my head on his lap and Kelly begins to play with my hair soothing me to sleep
"Thank you Kelly. For looking after us"
"Always baby. In sickness and in health remember. I love you"
"I love you too"
