[Discontinued] Life As Host #8 (Ouran High School Host Club)

A Few Sick Days

I woke up after my body started to freeze. When I opened my eyes I was alone in my room on top of my bed. My eyes adjusted to the darkness now it was totally pitch black outside, how long was I out?

When I went to sat up, I rested my head on the wall as it was giving me an extreme headache. My phone sat right next to me on the nightstand. So I picked it up and checked the time, it was 10 am the next day. That meant I was asleep for 15 or so hours straight. Someone had been checking up on me because right next to me there was cough medicine and a thermometer along with an interesting note.

"Man why is this happening to me?" I said feeling kind of depressed about my constant misfortune that always seemed to follow me around. My phone buzzed making me throw it out of my hand than catch it in mid air so it wouldn't break. Flipping it open there was a text from Haruhi.

"Hey Ryuu please try and feel better, we all really hope to see you as soon as you are better. BTW you will be getting quiet a couple get-well packages from your clients." Her text said.

I responded to her with a small 'k' before checking my temperature, which was 103.8 degrees meaning I had to sleep out the rest of the fever. So after taking a fever reducer I rested my head on the pillow and went back to sleeping again.

I woke up the next day with my lungs feeling like they were being crinkled up making me wheeze and have a minute or so long coughing fit, then also feeling kind of cold. It was much easier to move around, though it was very exhausting to do. When I checked my temperature it went down to 101.8, which meant the fever reducer medicine, was doing its job.

My stomach made a loud growling noise signaling that I needed food. Jumping out of the bed and I started to head down to the kitchen on the first floor. I arrived at the kitchen and right away started to grab ingredients for the food. But, before I did that I needed to check what time it was 3:58 pm. That meant I was sleeping for 27 hours straight. I had needed sleep from the hours of endless work and I got it, but now I needed food in my stomach.

In my head, I decided on tomato soup, a grilled cheese sandwich and a small bowl of goldfish. So once the food was finished being made I placed onto a tray and walked over to the furnished makeshift living room.

Our living room was basically just the ballroom with pieces of furniture yet. Whenever we held a party, the furniture was moved to the storage room. After exiting the kitchen and entering the living room I sat down on the couch right near the fireplace. Before I put the tray of food onto my lap; I wrapped a very large, super soft blanket around my body. I also grabbed my iPhone from my pocket and going onto the main house control app. After opening up the app I opened the fireplace grate and switched on the TV and let the previously lit fireplace warm me up.

"Ahhh... It feels so good." I said watching a random anime that was on and stretching my hands to the fireplace. I sat there continuing to watch the show and eating my late lunch. The warm tomato soup helped to soothe down most of my coughing fits. After I finished my grilled cheese and most of the gold fish, my phone started ringing. When I unlocked the phone, the Caller ID said it was the front gate. I answered the phone connecting it to the audio system for the front gate, only after another coughing fit paced.

"Hello this is the Inoyuka Estate. Who might this be?" I said into the phone.

"This is Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachin may we come in?" Kaoru's voice said answering me.

"Yes one minute." I responded, ending the call, unlocking the gate with the app controlling the house, and then I muted the television. When I heard a car pull up in front of the house I stood up from the couch and walking over to the front door. When I reached them there was a knock at the door, so I immediately opened it; when I did a blast of cold air came in. Outside of the door stood my two identical friends looking absolutely ridiculous. In their arms were tons of flower bouquets, letters, magazines, candies and various other get well things.
