Luke was feeling a little better the next morning, although not much. He still didn't want to get up, in case Lilly needed him when she woke up. Even pale, she was pretty. How did Luke possibly get so lucky?
He scrolled through Twitter on his phone for a while, until he was bored. He plugged in his earbuds, making sure the volume was low so he wouldn't wake Lilly. Then he put on AC/DC. He sat there for maybe half an hour before Ashton came in and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Hey Mate, you're looking a bit better." He whispered
"I feel better." Luke nods "A little tired, but I think I'm good."
"Not so fast." Ashton puts a cool hand to his forehead "You're cooler than last night, but I think you're still feverish."
"No man, I feel good. Really."
Ashton was skeptical. He knew it was near impossible that Luke had suddenly felt better, after he was so sick last night.
"How about I take your temp? Just to make sure."
"Fine." Luke huffed, letting Ashton slip the thermometer between his lips. Suddenly, there was yelling heard from downstairs.
"You cheated!"
"I did not!"
"Dude, you completely slipped past that third level!"
"You slipped past the second!"
"I'll be back." Ashton sighs, running off to quiet Mikey and Calum down before they woke Lilly
Quickly Luke took the thermometer out, sticking it in his bottle of water for a few seconds. He heard Ashton coming back, and quickly slipped the thermometer back in just as it started to beep.
"Let's see." Ashton says, and is surprised to see his friend apparently doesn't have a fever. "Ninety nine, I guess you weren't kidding about being better. Do you think you could eat something?"
"Yeah." Luke nods
"Alright. How does tomato soup sound?"
"That sounds amazing."
"I'll go heat some up. Call me when Lilly wakes up, okay? I want to see how she's doing, but she needs her sleep."
"Okay."
Once Ash was gone Luke drank a little water, and waited. It seemed like it would stay down, at least for the moment, and the teenager was relieved. The last thing he wanted to do was repeat the events of last night. Luke was suddenly brought out of his thoughts when Lilly rolled over. She yawned, then her hazel eyes fluttered open.
"Hey," Luke smiled
"Hey," Lilly repeated the greeting, still Half asleep
"You feel any better this morning?"
"Not really." She admits "Kind of the same. You?"
"I'm good." Luke nods "I might have just had a freak forty eight hour thing. Ashton is gonna bring up some soup. Do you want some?"
Lilly quickly shook her head. "I'm tired of laying in bed all day though. Can we maybe go down to the couch?"
"Of course." Luke smiles
He had been wanting to go downstairs, he just didn't want to leave his girl.
"Let's go." Luke follows as Lilly walks down the hall slowly, until she leans her back against the wall and slides down.
"Lil?" Luke is at her side the moment this happens, fear striking him like lightning
"I'm okay. Just needed to sit for a second." Lilly was getting dizzy again, and it was all she could do not to throw up right then and there. Once she feels the world right itself, she chances opening her eyes. Lilly's thankful her vision's clear, and she stumbles trying to get up again. Luke is quick to help, slipping a hand under her arm so she lands on him instead of the ground.
"Want me to carry you?" Luke asks, worried about Lilly falling down the stairs.
"No." Lilly sighs "I'm good."
She know's whether he's willing to admit it or not, that Luke isn't completely better. There's just no way. So Lilly manages the stairs on her own, and plops down on the couch in Ashton's living room next to Calum.
"Hey Lil, feel any better?"
"Nope."
Luke comes in, and Calum can see he's a bit peaky
"You alright mate?" Calum frowns, even further when Luke nods.
"I feel okay now." Cal knows the younger boy looks anything other than okay.
"Hey, sit down and keep an eye on Lilly. I'm going to be right back."
Calum's relieved when Luke does lay down, and leaves off to the kitchen.
