Chapter 8 - BMS2

"Do you want to get out of the house? You were in bed all day yesterday." Nolan asked the next day, I felt way better.

"Yeah. I'm sort of sick of the house."

"Are you sure you feel up to fling out? We could always watch a movie on the couch."

"That sounds great. Can we watch one at your parents house?" I asked.

"Yeah, and maybe we can get Izzy back." He joked. She has been over there since yesturday. I haven't seen her since the night before yesturday.

"Good idea." He said, leading me to the car. We got in the car and got to mom and dads house.

"Reagan! Nolan! Why are you here?" Izzy asked, running over to us when we opened the door.

"We're going to watch a movie, wanna watch one with us?" I asked her.

"Yeah! Can we watch 'Tangled'?" She asked and I nodded. I love 'Tangled'

"Reagan, honey, how are you feeling?" Mom asked me, giving me a hug.

"Way better."

"Do you want something to drink? Water?" She asked.

"Nah, I'm fine." I said, walking over to the couch and plopping down on it. "Hey, Izzy! Come sit on my lap!" I said, and she ran over, jumping on me.

"Careful Izzy!" Nolan shouted, sounding stressed. Her bottom lip quivered and I could tell she didn't like Nolan yelling at her.

"Izzy, I'm sorry." Nolan apologized, walking over to her.

"Its okay." She said in a tiny voice.

"Nolan, its alright." I said, putting my hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry, its just your sister is going to have a baby, and she needs to be more careful so the baby is healthy." Nolan told Izzy and she nodded.

"Noland, it's okay." I said and mom walked in.

"He's right, Reagan. You're going to have to be more careful until the baby comes." She said and I nodded.

"Let's just forget about it and watch the movie" I said.

"Reagan...Reagan...are you okay?" Nolan asked worriedly. "What's wrong?"

"I feel kind of dizzy." I said, grabbing onto the counter. We were still at mom and dad's house, but everyone was home.

"Nolan, sit her down." Dad instructed, going to the fridge.

"Are you alright?" Nolan asked, putting his hand around my waist and leading me to the couch. I shook my head as black spots clouded my vision.

"I think I'm going to pass out." I mumbled, leaning on him for support. I blinked rapidly, and was sat on the couch.

"Put your head between your knees." Ethan said, sitting in front of me. I did as instructed and within a few minutes, the dizziness passed.

"You alright?" Dad asked, handing me a bottle of water. I looked up and everyone was standing around me, but Nolan was hovering over me.

"I'm fine."

"Lay down and put your legs up." Dad said, putting pillows under my legs.

"Guys, I'm fine." I said. They were all overreacting.

"Reagan you almost passed out." Nolan said. He sounded extremely stressed "Shouldn't we take her to the hospital?" He asked his dad..

"Nolan, its perfectly normal for her to feel light headed in the first trimester." Dad said reassuringly. "You're just going to have to take it easy, Reagan." He said.
