Jessicas POV

I was laying in bed feeling sick to my stomach. I couldn't lay on my stomach or it would literally make me feel even worse. Louis and I had planned to go out today and just hang out but I don't think that was going to happen.

I barely slept at all the night before, waking up to stomach pains and horrible headaches and even throwing up a couple times. I think it was because of the fish. I must've gotten a bad batch of calamari because usually it isn't common to get the throw up bug in summer. Now I was having the chills and even under all my nice and warm blankets I was shivering.

Food poisoning is probably what I got stuck with and believe me you do not want to eat rotten or undercooked fish/calamari/octopus.

I closed my eyes and finally felt like I was going to fall asleep when there was a knock at my door. I ignored it. I was to tired to move, to tired to speak, I was even to tired to even attempt to open my eyes.

I heard my door squeak open and than shut again. I thought they left when I heard footsteps pad across my floor and my bed dip down on one side.

"Jess." he whispered. I groaned and rolled over. "Come on Jess were supposed to be hanging out today." he said as he poked my shoulder.

"Louis." I said, my voice sounding hoarse. I opened my eyes and looked at him. "I think I'm sick." My throat was dry and scratchy from throwing up and not having any fluids in my system. I coughed and it hurt like heck.

"Jess what's wrong exactly?" he asked as he moved some hair out of my face.

"My stomach hurts and I've thrown up a couple times." I answered dully and completely lifeless. "I think I might have food poisoning." I said as I coughed again.

He nodded."Want me to get you some water?" he asked.

I nodded. Immediately he stood up and ran from the room. I rolled from my side and into my back and just looked up at the ceiling. My eyes dropped closed what felt like seconds when he burst back into my room, the door slamming against the wall, making me holy awake. The loud noise made my head pound.

I squeezed my eyes just as I snuggled down under my blankets and tried to help full the pounding of my skull. It was so bad and I was supposed my head hadn't exploded yet.

"Louis." I opened my eyes so I could see him. "Please quiet down my head. . ." I didn't even have to finish, he just nodded and sat down on the edge of my bed.

"Here take this." He handed me a glass of water and I easily chugged it down. I was thirsty but I was slightly afraid I just throw up everything that was inside me.

I'd had food poisoning before but it was never this bad. I only remember the vomiting and dry, scratchy throat, not the rest of these symptoms. I know I didn't have alcohol but could I have been drugged? I pushed the thought out of my mind completely. No one would drug my food intentionally.

"Do you need some Advil? Pepto bismo for your stomach?" he asked

I nodded as I went to push myself into a sitting position. I knew where they were and I could get them myself.

"Yes I'll get them." He stopped me by putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Don't you dare. I'll get them and I'll get you some more water. I'll get you a bucket and I'll get you everything you need but you stay here." I sighed and lied back down and he pulled the covers up and over me.

"But I need to change in warmer cloths." I said as I shivered slightly.

"Jess you're already wearing want enough cloths." He was right, I was wearing a heavy shirt and a pair of heavy fuzzy pants and a pair of nice fuzzy socks. but I was still cold. I knew I wasn't feeling well last night so I purposely dressed warm.
