Castles crumbling (Taylor Swift's little sister)

Nothing new (being sick and doctor's visit)

You woke up several times that Monday night. Feeling hot and unwell. You rolled in your bed, never getting to fall asleep completely. At 3am you ran to the bathroom and threw up. After throwing up you felt a bit better and went back to bed; but half an hour later you were gagging again and ran back to the toilet. On the bedroom next door, Taylor woke up feeling unwell too and also threw up, when she was going to back to bed, she heard you and went to check on you.

She found you bending over the toilet and held your hair, tied it into a messy bun. Then she helped you stand up:

- "This is the second time I've been sick, I'm feeling so bad, Tay. But you don't look good either...." You said looking at your pale sister.

- "Yeah.... I was sick some minutes ago too" Taylor shrugged - "come on. Let's go to bed" Taylor getting into your bed. You obediently followed her, tired after being sick. You threw up twice more and Taylor as well, you were practically taking turns to use the bathroom. At 7am Andrea woke up and when she went to check on you, she found both of you sleeping together. You immediately woke up as she opened the door:

- "I've been sick four times since 3am, mom. I think Tay has been sick three or four times too"

- "Oh darling, I'll check your temperature" Andrea said, and she went to get the thermometer. When she came back Taylor had woken up. She took Taylor's temperature first; the thermometer indicated a fever. Then she took your temperature, the machine indicated a fever too.

- "What do you feel?" Your mom asked both of you.

- "My head hurts, my stomach hurts too. My body aches and I feel a bit dizzy" you replied.

- "Same" Taylor said.

- "It's probably a bug. Why don't you rest while I make you some breakfast?" Andrea said and went to the kitchen, whipped some scrambled eggs for herself and boiled two eggs, one for Taylor and one for you. 30 minutes later she appeared again with a tray containing two plates, each of them with a boiled egg and a toast, some hot tea and a cut up apple aside. You fell asleep again, but Taylor was scrolling on her phone, she sat up slowly, her body aching. With Taylor's movement, you woke up too. You groaned.

- "Come on, sit up darling, breakfast ready" Andrea said.

- "I can't eat anything; I feel so rubbish" you said.

- "Yeah...I don't think I can manage breakfast ether" Taylor shrugged.

- "Try to eat something. With something in your stomachs, you can have some medicine" your mom said in a firm tone.

Both Taylor and you sat and grimaced, your whole bodies ached. Andrea encouraged you to eat the egg, but ten minutes after eating it you ran to the bathroom to throw up again.

- "I told you I couldn't eat anything" you said standing up dizzy and annoyed.

Taylor managed to drink half of the hot tea, she was able to keep it down, as well as the medicine. You both slept for a couple of hours when Andrea woke you up to drink some water.

- "I don't want it. What if I throw up again?" You said pulling yourself up with lots of effort.

- "You're going to dehydrate, darling" Andrea said handing you a cold glass of water.

- "She's right. Maybe try taking a small sip" Taylor said and got tired just with speaking.

- "I don't want to be sick again, I don't want to wreck my teeth" you said almost crying.

- "Darling, it doesn't happen like that. It needs to be a constant thing. You have a virus right now. Take a small sip" Andrea said sitting beside you and stroking your arm, but the sole touch of her hand made you shiver.
