03¦Girlfriend.

My phone started to ring displaying Adam's name and I picked it up. "h-hello" I said. "H-hey... are you seriously okay right now? You sound terrible.." he asked. "I'm not okay." I said truthfully. "Oh god.. what symptoms are you having right now.. Can you breathe properly?" he said his voice filled with panic and worry.

"I try to breathe. It's getting better tho, but my stomach isn't" I say as I stir in my bed. "T-that's good that your breath is getting better at least... But what's wrong with your stomach? Do you still feel like throwing up?"

"I've been throwing up all night" I admit. "Damn it, you're getting really sick from that garlic... when did you even find out you were allergic to it?.." Good question.

"a few years back, I almost passed away from just a small thing like garlic" I cough. "Oh god.. why am I just finding out about all of this right now..? You could've easily died from what happened last night.." you couldn't let me.

"I'll be fine, don't worry. You should go to class" I tell him. "Are you sure you're gonna be okay? I really should just skip and come see you instead.." Awwww. "I would love that but...." I know you can't. "..but what?.." he asked his voice just above a whisper.

"you priotise your studies. I won't be angry If you Can't make it. I understand." I say. "Damn it... I really, REALLY want to come and see you though.." his voice sounded a bit serious this time. "that would make me feel better." I smile. "God damn it... I'm coming over right now then.." he said and I heard shuffling on the other side of the phone.

"thanks" I smile with a little bit of red on my cheeks. "Of course.. I'm leaving school right now.. I'll be there soon" he said and I heard his foot steps. "okay." I nod forgetting he can't see me. "See you then.." He quickly hung up and I let out a sigh. Mom walks back into my room with a wet towel and put it ontop, of my forehead to regulate my temperature. I put my phone on the night stand. "you need more rest. You didn't sleep almost all night.

Wait, I thought I passed ou- oh..... I woke up only to throw up all night.

I nodded and laid in my bed as she was soothing me. Soon, I heard a car pull up in our driveway then there was a knock at the front door. I bet it was Adam because he knocked on the door in a hurry, impatiently waiting for someone to let him in. "I'll get it" Phiona yelled and rushed to open the door. I had told my family about him alot so they do know him. Phiona walks him to my room.

He entered my room and immediately walked over to me, taking a seat on the edge of my bed next to me and immediately became incredibly concerned when he saw me lying there. "you came" I smile. He frowned slightly, but he also smiled a bit and nodded, reaching a hand out and gently caressing my cheek, his gaze full of concern. Awwww. "Of course I came.. I told you, I was gonna come and see you.." he said calmly.

"you are a really good friend." I tell him. "I was worried sick about you.. I didn't want to just be at school when you were struggling the way you are.." days ago, he couldn't even look into my eyes.

"you didn't have to worry, I have my family with me." i tell him. He frowned. "I know.. you've got your family.. but I still wanted to come and check on you.. I was worried, so I wanted to come and see you in person.." he's so cute.

"okay then" I smile. He fell quiet for a moment, watching me closely. "You.. don't mind me being here, do you?.." He said in a soft voice. "I meant it when I said I would be happy to see you here, silly" I chuckle. He just smiled slightly and chuckled softly, gently running his fingers through my hair.

"I know you did.. I just didn't want to intrude or anything while you're sick.." he's also gentle. "lay down with me. We'll, my bed is a little smaller than yours so, I hope you don't mind" I shrug. He hesitantly laid down on the bed next to me. "No, I don't mind at all.." he shakes his head. He carefully moved even closer to me, so that his body was almost pressed up against mine. He wrapped his arms around me and gently pulled me against his chest. "You're welcome.." he similes.
