Sorry yesterday was short, this one will be longer, have a great rest of you day, and never give up! :)

I sigh and then turn onto my side, facing the white wall, my eyelids, which feel like stones, drop and I drift off instantly.
I wake, feeling more refreshed until I remember the extent of the nightmare I'm living in. I decide to sit up, then remember my plan, so I fall back onto my side and slap my face to make me look warm or something, hopefully it works.
The door opens for my meal and I decide to groan, just when Tyler hears it I can tell he freezes, then after a few minutes, he looks at me like 'seriously, what now.'
I moan again and clench my stomach, I almost let loose a laugh as concern crosses his face. Then he walks and his whole body is visible, but a hand still holds the door wide open. He makes me wait some more.
When he finally starts walking over to me, he mindlessly steps on my paper plate with food, I see him blush, then it changes back and he kneels beside me. I try to have my eyes only half open, and look weak. He places his cool, rough, hand on my forehead, I try not to grimace and breathe more heavily.
His forehead wrinkles with confusion, and he walks out of the room, then the whole 'gang' is inspecting me trying to figure out what's wrong with me. I moan and groan when they ask me questions, then I hear them gather outside my door and try to decide what to do.
"What's wrong with her, Jasmin?"
"I already told you, I don't know!" She sounds frustrated.
"What should we do?"
"How did this happen?"
"I suppose it could be some sort of vitamin deficiency."
"How do we fix it?"
"I don't know, I'd have to know what vitamin she's lacking."
They bicker and discuss about what to do some more, but it becomes so muffled and jumbled as they talk over each other I just sigh and wait. When they finally agree on something they come in looking proud of themselves. They all kneel beside me and once more, for effect, I groan.
"Does your stomach hurt? What's wrong?..." Jasmin leans over me and asks me like a million questions, I, in response, breathe heavily, she frowns and we go through all the questions one at a time, I nervously give random answers.
"Okay, you done Jasmin?" During this time the others were gathered around taking everything in, the stress and nerves made me sweat and this added to the effect greatly.
"Yes, let's go look it up now." They stand and walk out all muttering to themselves, I hear them yelling and arguing in the living room, which I only rarely catch glances of. Then they start to agree more and discuss, so boring, how long does this take?
Suddenly they burst into the room, they look happy and satisfied with their hardcore research project as they announce that I have a vitamin B deficiency, I moan and it goes silent.
"Soooooo, how do we fix it?" Jasmin wonders and they walk out, locking the door and go back to their research.
If I remember correctly, I should have symptoms lots different from what I told them, but whatever they say, I'll just have to play along I guess. They talk some more then announce their resolve to me.
"You will be forced to eat lots of fruits and vegetables from now on!" They stomp out and I decide to push my luck.
"Wait, can you carry me so I can rest on the couch?" I plead quietly, they all look at each other then discuss that they will have me under surveillance all the time, they're so stupid, they never learn.
Tyler makes me blush by scooping me up in his arms like a groom does with the bride, he gently carries me down and lays me on the coach. He leaves and comes back with the fluffiest blanket I've seen since I was home, the leaf green fluff makes me smile, but only gently, because I'm supposed to be sick. When Tyler sees this he smiles.
"You like the blanket?" He asks me gently, and covers me with the sheet, then tucks it in all round me after I turn onto my side.
"Yeah." I say then he returns once more with a green pillow, which he carefully puts under my head
"Thanks." I see concern in his face as he sits in a single chair and reads a newspaper.
Now, what to do next.
