You rolled over in your best friend, Jackie's bed and felt a headache coming on the second you woke up which sucked. Trying to slowly sit up, which you thought would make you feel better, but only seemed to make it worse. Your nose was beginning to get stuffy and your throat felt dry. Footsteps came from the hallway and you heard whoever it was pause outside the bedroom door. 

"Hey Y/n, Katherine is making breakfast- Woah you don't look too good," Jackie said as she walked into her room.

"Thanks Jackie, I didn't know that," you replied, coughing, reaching over needing to blow your nose into some tissues. "Returned from your morning jog with Nathan already?"

"Yeah well, I assumed you'd be awake by now so we came back ... I can get Katherine to check you out if you want." She replied with a sad expression.

"Please do." you whimpered, sounding so helpless tugging the covers back over your chest.

She nodded, rushing out of her room and going downstairs to go get Katherine. Once she was gone you pulled the sheets over your head trying to seek cover from the light rays coming through the window. 

"Sounds like there's a dying angry animal in here. Oh no sorry, it's just you Y/n." you heard the voice of Cole, who when you peaked your head above the blanket, saw leaning in the doorway.

Grumbling under your breath, not really in the mood for his teasing, you replied to the tall blonde "Go away Cole. I'm not feeling good and you'll just make it worse."

"Ah, now I'm offended since most people find my company to be quite enjoyable." He walked into the bedroom sitting down on the side of the bed moving the cover down from your eyes so he could see some of your face.

"Well I d-don't-" you attempted to say but another coughing fit had to hit you right before his mother and Jackie came back into the bedroom.

Katherine sat down and pushed Cole off the bed, putting a hand to your forehead. "Oh honey, you're burning up. You'll just have to stay in bed today and miss the fair."

"Nooo, I promised Kiley to be there, she won't be happy," you responded with a tired breath.

She shakes her head eyeing her older son. "I'm sure she'll understand honey. Cole, I need you to stay and take care of her."

"What the hell!" He raised his voice, accidentally cursing at his mother.

You sat upright on the pillows while having another coughing fit, "No! He doesn't need to be here..."

"This is not up for discussion. Y/n you need to rest, you are sick, and Cole you will be staying home to take care of her. After all, you're grounded for sneaking unwanted guests in and out of the house remember." 

"We're going to be late" George's voice yelled from downstairs.

"I'm sorry but I have to go, if there's anything you need, you know how to reach me." Katherine said, shaking her phone in the air, "Come on Jackie, we'll be late." she added as she got to her feet and left with Jackie following her downstairs, leaving Cole and you alone in the bedroom together

Laying your head back down onto the pillows, you yanked the covers over your head letting out a loud breath. 

"Don't think I'm happy about this either," Cole comments with an annoyed tone 

"Oh sure. I'm sorry my illness prevented you from hooking up with Erin or Olivia or Paige!" you snapped at him.

His colorful eyes glared at you. "You don't have the right to judge my life," he said looking offended.
