Paisley's POV
I giggled to myself as Lin steered me back to my room and helped me get in bed.
"Okay, there you go." He said, tucking the covers over me. "Vanessa and I aren't going to be here tomorrow because we need to work so my dad's going to come over and watch you."
"Okieeeee dokieee." I giggled. "Does he like cough alcohol too!?"
Lin chuckled and kissed my head.
"Get some rest you crazy kid." Lin smirked and started towards the doorway. Then, he stopped in his tracks and sat on my bed. "Actually, let's talk while you're still in your...uh, delusional state."
"M'kay!" I said, playing with the blanket. "But before we do that, can you call my mom? She-she's supposed to get off work soon. I always feel better when I-I'm sick and my mom's here."
Lin suddenly looked really sad. Vanessa came in and frowned, noticing Lin's sad expression.
"What's wrong?" She asked, looking at Lin and I. I shrugged, still giggling.
"I asked him to call my mom and now he's sad." I explained. Vanessa looked as white as a ghost and was wearing the same expression as Lin.
"Aww, it's okay. Don't be sad. I get sad too sometimes. Especially when I watch 'Marley & Me'." I smiled. They both looked speechless. Vanessa came over to me and hugged me.
"You poor thing." She whispered, holding me close. I giggled.
"Nothing's wrong I promise. Just call my-my mom." I yawned and felt myself falling asleep against Vanessa. Hopefully my mom will come home soon.

Paisley's POV
Vanessa had already left for work and Lin was getting ready to go to the theatre he was just waiting for his dad to come over.
"Lin, you-you forgot to call my mom last night."
"Oh yeah...well I, uh, talked to her when you went to bed and she said that she is...she's out on business! Yes. Out on business in...Colorado! Yup." Lin said nervously. I giggled.
"That's okay! Just call Eric! He'll come and pick me up!" I added. Lin looked skeptical.
"Who's Eric?" He asked me.
"Eric's my big brother."
"Oh...okay. Well..."
Just then, Lin's dad came into the room.
"Lin! Como estas mi chico?" Lin's dad said, giving him a big hug.
"Hola papá. Esta es Paisley. Ella no entiende español, asi que detente y está muy, muy loca en este momento."
