*Niall's POV*

I grabbed the water and the pill and drunk them down.

"Mom my back itches." I said.

"The back scratcher fell on the side of your bed." She said.

"When is Zayn coming over?" I asked her.

"He's not." She said.

"Please I won't get him sick I promise." I said.

"I'll ask his mother." She said and I reached for the back scratcher and I scratched my back.

Chicken Pox. So itchy.

"He's coming over but you can't touch him you here me Niall and don't let him sit on your bed either, both of you being sick is double trouble." She said and I laughed.

"Okay mom okay." I said.

A few minutes later Zayn did show up. And when he came up to my room he sat on my desk chair.

"Are you going to school tomorrow?" He asked me.

"No. I'm still going to be itching by tomorrow. It takes up to a week maximum to heal." I said hunching

"So you'll be missing school?" He said and I nodded.

"So you're leaving me alone." He said.

"I don't mean to it's just I think I got it from drinking off of somebody else's cup at Joseph's birthday party."

"Well." He said and he started thinking.

"You can only get it from drinking off someone?" He asked me.

"No, coughs, sneezes, hugs, kissing, door nobs, blankets. You know." I said hunching and he got up and touched my doorknob then he rolled around in my bed.  He then gave me a hug.

"Do you think that's enough." He asked me.

"It should be more than enough." I said.

"Just to be sure lick the rim of your cup."

"What."

"Just do it Niall and maybe I could stay with you while you're sick because I'll also be sick. But lick your the cup first." He said.

"Okay." I said and licked around the rim of my cup and I handed it to him and he drunk off of it. I don't know that's a little nasty.

He pulled away. "Yeah I'm going to be really sick." He said and moved over back to the chair.

"Guys are you hungry?" My mom said coming in my room.

"Yeah a little." I said and she looked at Zayn.

"Same." He said and scratched his arm.

"Please don't tell me." She said and sighed and looked at me.

"It was probably the door knob." I said with my hands up.

"God I forgot about the door knob. We'll see his condition by tonight before his mom picks him up then we decide if he has them or not." She said.

"You know I was thinking just now that like if he's sick there is no reason to spread the germs to both houses. It should only stay in one so if does get the chicken pox he might as well just stay here." I said scratching my chest.
