Chapter 14

Max's pov

Dr. Michelle takes tests and we have to wait a couple minutes for the results to come back. In the meantime I let Allison watch SpongeBob SquarePants on my phone.

It was more like the two of us watching. I don't care how old I am I will still watch it. As it was getting to an interesting part the doctor comes back into the office.

" Mr Verstappen " he says as she clears her throat. I straighten more up waiting for the news to drop " she has the stomach flu " I let out a sigh of relief at least it's not something worse but this is still not good.

" she needs plenty of rest, help her rehydrate don't let her eat certain foods like candy, ice cream and sodas and once hydrated get her on a normal diet like toast, yogurt, fruits and vegetables " the doctor explains some more information.

After we get home from the doctors office and I let her get some rest. After she wakes up I get her to drink a little water than give her some mashed potatoes.

After that I let Allison sit on the couch watching Barbie in the twelve dancing princesses. I lay down on the big couch ready to fall asleep watching the Barbie movie.

I felt two little hands on my foot and see Allison climbing up to lay down on top of me. She buries her head in my chest with her hair all over I my face.

I soon hear her breathing come to peace that she has falling asleep. My poor baby hopefully she'll feel a little better tomorrow.

I lay still for another five minutes making sure she's really asleep before taking her upstairs to my bedroom. I take a shower after tucking her in bed for the night.

I brush my teeth every then do my skincare and turn the bathroom lights off. I yawn going to the other side of the bed as my head hit the pillow I fell asleep.

I wake up in the middle of the night to something burning up beside me. I look down and see my daughter body sprawled out on top of me with her little hands wrapped around my big one.

I rub the sleep from my eyes and put my hand on her forehead and it's hot. Jesus she's definitely has a fever. I slowly place her beside and replaced myself with a pillow.

I go to the bathroom taking a washcloth running it under water. As I rinse it out I hear soft crying from the bedroom and I immediately hurried up.

I go back to the bedroom with the damp cloth in my hand. I stand in front of the bed " what's wrong, princess " I say softly not to scare her.

She looks up and started crying harder. Oh no I though as she reached her arms up sniffing her nose and hiccuping face all red.

" I though you left me " she says quietly through her hiccups burying her face in my neck. I sit on down on the bed my back leaning on the headboard.

I comfort my daughter running my hand up and down her back and placing kisses on her forehead her skin still hot. I take a pillow and place it in front of me and place Allison down.

I take the washcloth I put on the nightstand and put it on her forehead to bring down her fever. " how are you feeling? " I ask " sick " she says.

Now that she awake I take the temperature monitor and place it in her mouth. After waiting I take it out and it confirmed my suspicions 100.4°.

I stayed awake that whole night with Allison waking constantly and her body burning up.

I give her a teaspoon of water every five to ten minutes to help with her temperature. The sun is shining by the time her body temperature cools down and she's asleep.

The time she wakes up I already cleaned the house up a little bit. I give her a lukewarm bath when her body was burning up again and it worked.
