Not So Lonely Summer (Our2ndLife Fanfic)

Chapter Eleven-Hospital

*

After about 15 minutes, a doctor came in and escorted Jc and I to a room.

I sat on the hospital bed and watched as the doctor got all of his equipment ready.

"Miss Moran, is it?"

I nodded.

"How are you doing?" He smiled. "How have you been feeling?"

I coughed a little and tried to answer, "My throat has been.. it's been really sore. And my head hurts.." I started coughing horribly again.

"She's been coughing like this all night, doctor." Jc answered for me, with worry in his voice.

He nodded as of saying he understood.

"How long have these symptoms been with you, dear?" The doctor asked as he came forward with a blood pressure pump.

"Since early this.. morning. We.. we went out to the be-each to camp.."

He nodded again. "The cold air from the ocean must've gotten to you. We'll figure it out soon, Miss Moran." He smiled.

He put the blood pressure pump on my arm and started pumping. Afterwards, he brought out the stethoscope and held it up to my bare chest and lower back.

"Your heartbeat and everything is normal. We can run a few tests to see what else is wrong."

He walked out of the room and minutes later I heard a knock on the door.

Without answering, the door opened and Trevor and Kian walked into the room.

"Jay, are you alright?" Trevor ran frantically towards me.

"I'm f..fine." I smiled and brought Trevor in for a hug.

"Now get away..you'll get.. sick." I gave a slight chuckle then went into a coughing fit.

I looked up and saw Kian with worry in his eyes.

"How was your..interview?" I smiled at him slightly.

"I..uh, I didn't have an interview, Jay.." He looked down and scratched his head nervously.

"Wha..why?"

I went into a terrible fit again and the doctor walked in.

"Well, the room has multiplied since I last left." He chuckled.

"Miss Moran, I will need you to open your mouth so I can swab your mouth. It won't feel to comfortable, but it's all we can do."

I opened my mouth weakly and he stuck a long q-tip in my mouth. He swabbed it around and I threatened to gag a few times.

He brought it out and thanked me then went on his way again.

"You're not getting out of this, Kian.."

I gave him a quick stare down then laid back on the hospital bed.

Jc  sat next to me and grabbed my hand, rubbing my thumb.

"Are you alright, baby?" He whispered.

I smiled at his caring actions towards me.

"I'm fine."

He leaned down a kissed my forehead.

The door opened for the 3rd time and the doctor walked in.

"I'm sorry to say, Miss Moran, but the tests came back. You have bronchitis and strepococcal pharyngitis. I will prescribe you with some antibiotics. you will need to stay out of the cold and rest a lot." He started writing down a prescription and handed me the paper.

"Thank.. you, doctor." I smiled and stood up from bed.

"You can have the made up at any local CVS or pharmacy center. Just go by the instructions on the prescription. You may leave now. Remember to rest easy." He looked at Jc, "I'm assuming you are the one responsible for this young lady?"

Jc nodded.

"Make sure she gets a lot of rest and takes her medicine. Keep her out of the cold."

"Yes sir." Jc smiled. "Thanky ou for your help, doctor."

After that, we were on our way out of the hospital and headed back home.

*

We got to the house and walked inside after we went to a pharmacy.

I took my anitbiotics and walked to my bedroom.

Jc decided to stay tonight to make sure I was alright.

We were lying in bed, Jc cuddling me form behind.

"Jc..."

"What is it babe?"

"Could you get me some hot tea?.."

I turned around to look at him and smiled.

He looked at me for a second and finally cracked.

"Okay. Okay."

He got up and kissed my cheek then walked downstairs.

After a few minutes Jc came back with a cup of hot tea and a bowl of chicken and noodles.

I sat up and smiled at him.

"You're the best baby." I kissed his cheek.

I finished my soup and my tea, and finally laid back down.

Not long after, I drifted to sleep but not before hearing a whisper in my ear.

"I.. love you Jama.." It was very quiet.

But before I could reply, I fell asleep.
