Coraline's POV:
It was 3:30 in the morning when I get waken up by someone throwing up and crying. Taylor. Oh no. I jump out of my bed and run to her bathroom. I open the door and immediately run to her, "Shhh. It's okay Tay. I'm right here." I say as I grab her brush, a hair tie and tie her hair back. Then I go downstairs to the kitchen and grab a bowl and washcloth. I go back upstairs and set the bowl and washcloth on her nightstand. I go back in her bathroom and lead her to her bed. I lay down with her and put on Friends. I snuggled with her and sang to her:
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
Your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreamin'
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light
To you, everything's funny
You got nothing to regret
I'd give all I have honey
If you could stay like that
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up
Never grow up
You're in the car on the way to the movies
And you're mortified your mom's droppin' you off
At fourteen, there's just so much you can't do
And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's gettin' older too
And don't lose the way that you dance
Around in your PJs getting ready for school
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
And no one's ever burned you
Nothing's ever left you scarred
And even though you want to
Just try to never grow up
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
And all your little brother's favorite songs
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone
So here I am in my new apartment
In a big city, they just dropped me off
It's so much colder than I thought it would be
So I tuck myself in and turn my nightlight on
Wish I'd never grown up
I wish I'd never grown up
Oh, I don't wanna grow up
Wish I'd never grown up
Could still be little
Oh, I don't wanna grow up
Wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darlin', don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to
Please try to never grow up
Oh, oh
Don't you ever grow up
Oh (never grow up)
Just never grow up
Even after I sang she was still crying a little. I then reached for her phone and called Travis. "Hey Tay. What's up?" He answered. "Hey Travis it's Cora." I said. "Cora? Why do you have Taylor's phone?" He asked. "Um, Taylor doesn't feel good and even though I sang to her she's still crying. Could you please help me and come over?" I say. "Um, yeah. Just give me 5 minutes and I'll be there." He said. "Okay. Thank you Travis." I say. "No problem Core." He said. Travis calls me Core while Taylor calls me Bug, Cora, Babes and Princess. "C-cora." I hear Taylor cry stutter. "Yeah, Tay?" I ask, pulling her into a hug. "W-who w-were y-you o-on t-the -p-phone w-with?" She asks. "Travis. He's coming in about 3 minutes." I say back. I noticed she had a little smile but then started to cry again. "Tay, what's wrong? You're okay. You're not throwing up anymore." I say as I keep her in my hug. "I-i-f-feel-h-hot." She stutters as she starts to cry and hyperventilate. "Shhh. It's okay. I'm going to grab the thermometer, okay?" I say as I let her out of the hug. She nods as I get off the bed and go to the bathroom. I grab the thermometer and immediately get to Taylor. I put it under her tongue. The thermometer beeps and I look at it: 101.1. Oh no. "Tay, we have to get you to the hospital. You have a really bad temperature." I say, grabbing Taylor's phone to call Travis. I called Travis and he came to take Taylor to the hospital.
