Jo's pov

Harry and the boys come back today. After 2 long weeks they finally come back.

I didn't feel well this morning so I'm still in bed. I have a temperature of 101 so I'm dizzy and discombobulated.

I was freezing cold despite my temperature. I was wrapped in a fuzzy zebra blanket and under my comforter. I drifted in and out of a hazy dreamy place and never quit knew where I was.

Jo was feeling bad the day before but only had a slight temperature. Now her temperature was high and she was asleep in bed. I told Harry but he couldn't do much. He said they would be coming home late and so he could make a doctors appointment then.

Our day was watching movies and getting Chinese take out food.

Around 9:30pm Jo got up and stumbled down the stairs asking where Harry was.

I told her he wouldn't be back until late and to go back to bed. But Jo insisted on staying up to wait for Harry. She sat on the steps with Leo right there with her.

Harry's pov

2:36am

We stumbled through the door with our stuff in hand. Two weeks had felt like forever.

I thanked Ashton and Luke before they left. I was about to walk up stairs when I noticed a little Jo curled up on the steps asleep with Leo; of course beside her.

I picked her up and hugged her. She was hot her skin was radiating heat.

"Harry?" she asked.

"Yeah baby it's me why are you out of bed?"

"It's snowing so I wanted to wait for you to come with the pizza man." she had no idea what she was saying so I just nodded and walked upstairs.

I laid her in my bed missing being able to snuggle with her.

"I missed you so much." I said as I kissed her forehead and snuggled her close.

Next morning

I called the doctors and made an appointment for that day. It was at 1:30 so we had a few hours. Jo was to confused to do anything including talk but she tried.

I laid Jo on the couch so I could still at least be by her. I missed her so much on tour and now I wanted to just be close.

It was entertaining to have conversations with her no doubt about it Louis had an hour long conversation about how Eskimos made the Eiffel tower out of Korean barbecue sauce. The best part was Jo was so serious and Zayn got the whole thing on video.

When 12:54 came I put Jo in the car and drove to the doctors office.

The doctor told me she had scarlet fever and proscribed a medication. We picked that up and went home. Jo was asleep and I felt bad to wake her up but I had to give her the medicine.

After that Jo slept and slept only to be woken up for me to give her the medication. This went on for days until about a week after we got the medicine.

Jo's fever broke.

That's all that mattered because the next day Jo felt so much better she still stayed in my bed but she could talk like a normal person and she ate real food for the first time in nearly a week.

Jo's pov

I felt better and I wasn't tired at all I was in the kitchen in just a pair of cotton shorts with no shirt it was summer still and while not hot it was warm.

Harry and Liam were in the living room. I was getting some frosting down from a cupboard when I over heard Harry and Liam discussing something I didn't want to be discussed.

School.

I had gone to Writesworth. But it was really far from here so I wasn't going there. I was hoping I wasn't going to have to go but apparently I was.

I grabbed the frosting and a big spoon slammed the cabinet door.

"Jodi Flack Styles Malik Horan Tomlinson Payne Don't slam the cupboard doors how many times to I have to tell you!" Harry yelled from the other room. When he was mad he called me all the last names of the boys.

"Maybe they'll teach me that in school!" I yelled back.

"Don't back talk to me young lady!"

"That's sorta how conversations work!"

"Jo!" I heard Harry get up. I ran past him out the front door.

I ran into the woods not far but far enough. I heard Harry yell my name but I didn't care.

I sat on the ground eating the frosting.

"You're going to get sick again." I heard Niall say behind me as he sat down.

"Harry hates me." I said putting the frosting down.

"Harry doesn't hate you he loves you more than anything. He just gets frustrated with you he's only 20."

"I can't help it. I try not to be like this I really do but I can't help it." I sob. Niall rubs my back as I put my head in between his crossed legs.

"I know it's ok Harry loves you no matter what just like the rest of us do."

"I-I can't help it." I cried I was falling apart as I cried.

Niall picked me up and held me close to him. he picked up the frosting and spoon and stood up walking back to the house.

I wasn't crying but I laid my head on Niall's shoulder looking around.

"There you guys are I was worried." Harry said. That's what he had to say I thought he wasn't actually.

I went to bed early my stomach hurt.

Harry came in and sat on my bed.

"You know I love you right?"

I nodded.

"Good cause I do and everything I do I try to do in your best favor. Including school." Harry said looking at me.

"I don't want to go to school."

" I know."

Harry sighed and laid down next to me pulling me into him I didn't struggle. He kissed my head.

"I know." he said again.

"I love you so much don't ever think I don't." Harry kissed me again.

And that was the end of the discussion and the night. I honestly had to say it was the best I had slept in weeks.
