Tom wakes up to find you moaning and crying in your sleep. His arm brushes against your skin and notices you are burning up. He gets up and gets you a cold washcloth from the bathroom and places it on your forehead. "Darling you're running a fever. Can you wake up for a second so you can take some medicine." Tom says as he brushes your hair back out of your face. You open your bloodshot eyes to see your husband looking worried. "Tommie I don't feel good." You moan as tears stream down your face. "I know my love here take this, it will help your fever. What else hurts?" You take the two white pills and wash it down with water. You hold your stomach thinking you're not going to be able to keep it down. The unpleasant feeling passes and you answer Tom, "everything hurts. My head, throat, arms, legs. I feel like I can't keep anything down." You rest your head on his stomach. "You just rest. I'll stay with you all day. Just need to call Luke and a doctor." He says rubbing his thumb on your tear stained cheek. You drift to sleep dreaming you and Tom were at the zoo. He took you to see the Bears and bought you cotton candy. You loved this dream till you were waken up by terrible stomach pains. You winced and cried, rolling around the bed trying to find comfort. Tom comes running in, "darling it's ok stop moving it will only make it worse. I have a doctor friend who's coming by to check up on you." He says trying to calm you by petting your head. "You're still warm dear. Would you like a fan on you?" He asks kneeling beside the bed. You nod your head yes and he gets a fan out of the closet. He climbs into bed with you but you don't want him touching you because you're achy. "Ok no cuddles I just wanna be with you." He says as the doorbell rings. "That must be the doctor. I'll be right back."

Tom walks into your dark bedroom with his doctor friend. "Darling could you sit up so the doctor can examine you better?" Tom asks as he helps you get in an upright position. You try to say hello to the doctor but speaking makes your throat hurt so Tom talks for you. "She says her head throat stomach arms and legs hurt. She's running a temperature and she doesn't think she can keep food down." "Ok Mrs Hiddleston I'm going to ask you yes or no questions you can nod your head for the answer." The doctor says taking your temperature. "Is there a possibility you can be pregnant?" You shake your head no and Tom says "she had her period last week." The doctor takes out his stethoscope and listens to your heart and lungs. "Have you ate anything new in the past few days?" You shake your head no again. "Ok I'm going to feel around your stomach so if you please lay back down. You slowly lay flat and the doctor starts touching you. "Any pain here?" You say no. "How about here?" No again. "Here?" You wince and start to cry. "It's ok darling he will fix it." Tom says rushing over to comfort you. "So do you know what's wrong doctor?" Tom asks. "You need to get her to the hospital right away. I'll call her an ambulance. It's looking like appendicitis." He says as he dials 911 on his phone. You start freaking out as Tom rushes around getting stuff you might need for the hospital. He comes over to you "hush my love it's ok the doctors at the hospital will fix everything. It's ok I'll be with you." Toms doctor friend let's the paramedics in and leads them to your room. The doctor answers all of their questions as a paramedic and Tom help you into the stretcher. They put you into the ambulance and Tom rides in the back with you.

A medic gives you an IV as you fly down the road. The loud sirens hurt your head but Tom tries to muffle the sound with his hands. You arrive at the hospital and are rushed into the ER. Tom fills out paperwork as a team of doctors and nurses give you shots and IVs. Once everything settles down Tom comes into the little room you're in. He kisses your head and holds your hand. You tremble under his touch, "hey no need to be scared. You've had surgery before, this is nothing. My friend was telling me the make a small cut on your belly button and take a tube and suck out you appendix. It's nothing compared to what you had before." Toms words calms your nerves and the hospital doctor walks in. "Hello Mrs Hiddleston I'll be your surgeon. I over heard your husband explaining the process. Is there any other questions before you go into OR?" "No I think I'm ok." You say as your throat stings a little. "Ok so in a few minutes a nurse will come and get you."
