The worst thing about taking care of someone sick is that you get sick. It's been a week since Jack was sick and now I'm coming down with something and what I can tell it's the same thing. I cough my head off and gag after I cough, my stomach feels funny, and I have a fever. I lay on the sofa in Jack's apartment with a rag on my head and a blanket on me. "Sorry for getting you sick what I had was not fun." Jack walks into the room with some 7up. "No kidding." Is all I say before sitting up a little and I grab the trash can that's next to me and throw up. Jack shakes his head then goes to get something. When he comes back he has something for me. It's a cherry tasting liquid medicine that Jack poles into a spoon and help me get it down. "What am I going to do about you?" He asks in a joking tone. I shake my head and i lay back down. Jack sighs before taking the stuff back to the kitchen before coming back and sitting next to where I'm curled up to a ball freezing. "How you feeling?" Jack asks rubbing my foot with with thumb. I shrug. "Better I guess." I flip around so my hand is in his lap. As I lay there he starts the stroke my hair making me sleepy and I doze off.
I'm waken by the sound of a small bell. I open my eyes and see my kitten Bella running to me. When she jumps up on me I smile as she purrs on me like there's no tomorrow and she starts to chew on my hair. "Where did you come from?" I say pulling her off of me. "Well I thought you need a friend." Jack says walking in. "But I have you and that's all I need." I say petting Bella as she purrs. Jack shrugs as he sits. "So you felling better?" He asks as Bella goes from me to him. I nod. "Much better almost like myself." I say which makes him smile. "So... How's school going so far?" I ask and his smile fades. "Same as before I left but Chelsea has been hitting on me and a tone of people keep asking me questions." He says with a sigh. I sit up so I'm comfortable. "Don't you think we should take my temperature?" I ask. "It wouldn't hurt to check." He says before walking off.
When he comes back he hands me a thermometer. I stick it in my mouth and wait for it to beep. After about an minute it beeps and I check it. "102.8" I say and Jack's eyes widen. "I might have something that will help bring the fever down my grandma did this when I had fevers back at home. I nod and he heads toward the kitchen. When he comes back with a bottle of olive oil. "Just on thing. It might feel awkward your going to have to take your shirt off and lay on you stomach." I feel my face heat up the. I remember I have my bra on so I calm down a little. Jack turns around being the gentleman he is and I take my shirt off before laying on my stomach. I clear my throat to tell him I was ready and when he turns around his eyes cloud with lust and he does a little wolf whistle. "Just get on with it." I say. He nods before getting some oil on his hand and unclips my bra before he starts to rub the oil on my spine. "Ok stay like that for a few minutes and then we'll check your temperature again." I nod before he clips my bra and I rest my head on my sofa before dozing off again.
