I got up and went to help Harry clean up. He's done so much today. I walked past Lin over to Harry.

“Harry, can I help you?”

“I got this. How are you feeling?”

“Same, but can’t I do something?”

“Yes” finally I can do something “You can try one of Lin’s brownies” I was disappointed he wouldn’t let me help but I couldn’t pass that offer up.

“Harry you’re doing so much. I feel bad I’m just sitting doing nothing” he turned to me and held my hand.

“Gracie, you’re sick. You need your rest.” His eyes completely won the battle.

“Okay fine” I said slowly walking to the couch. I also grabbed a brownie.

I laid on the couch and I heard them talking but I couldn’t understand because I began to fall asleep. I really must be sick because its only 7:27 pm and I’m almost asleep.

*The next morning*

I woke up on the couch to a horrid cramp. Did Harry stay overnight? He didn’t have to. I fell back asleep before I had time to think about it. 

“Gracie?” A calm voice woke me

“Huh?” I was like half asleep. Oh it was Harry.

  

“It’s 10:30 am” my eyes got big

“What?! We’re so late!!” I panicked 

“Grace calm down. Your temp. is 102. You’re staying home.” damn

“What about you?”

“I’m staying with you” Wow

“Harry you don’t have to do this. Really”

“I owe you from camp.” Oh yeah, I practically saved his life from a cabin fire that his idiot girlfriend tried to trap me in. 

“Still yo-“ 

“Gracie. It’s ok I want to help you like you helped me” aw but he cut me off -_- rude

I got up and went upstairs to clean up. I showered and got dressed. I put on a baggy sweatshirt and leggings. I brushed out my hair and blow-dried it, then i put it in a bun. 

“Grace?”

“Yeah?” I was in the middle of finishing up when he came up.

“Someone called about your mom.” my face went blank. I haven’t heard from my mom since she moved 1 year ago. I was nervous.
