The lost princess

Chapter 27: Bonds

Ethan's P.O.V

"How'd you like your birthday?" I asked Brooklyn as I got into bed.

"I loved it" she replied, with a wide smile.

"Good"

I slowly leaned down towards her, brushing the hair out of her face.

Knock knock

I sighed in frustration while Brooklyn giggled. I got up and made my way towards the door.

When I opened the door there stood the one and only red head.

"Andrew?" I said schoked. He's never came to our room.

"It's Michael" he says in a panicked tone. "I don't know exactly what happened, Jane just told me to come get you"

I turned around and looked at Brooklyn, who was standing a few feet behind me. "Stay here I'll be right back" I walked up to her and kissed her on her forehead before running out the room.

I follow Andrew down the long hall way into Michaels room.

I run in to see Michael lying on the bed shaking and covered in sweat. Jane is kneeling to her side, running her hand trew his hair while she clothes his hand in the other.

"Sshh, everything's going to be alright baby" she says softly. I can see that she's trying not to cry and be strong for him.

"What happened?" I ask.

"I don't know. I was in my room when I got this feeling that something was wrong" she explained. "I came to see if everything was alright and when I walked in he was like this"

Tears were slowly slid down her face. She was trying to stay calm, but was clearly struggling.

I looked back at Michael to see that his shaking hadn't calmed down and neighter had his fever.

"Andrew I need you to run downstairs and as many bags of ice as you can carry up here" I told him. He nodded and ran out of the room.

"Jane help me carry him to the bathroom, we're going to put him in the tub"

She nodded and gently moved his feet off the bed. I helped her sit him up so he could wrap his arms around us.

As I threw his arm around my neck I heared him mumble something. I couldn't tell what since it was so low.

We carried him so the bathroom and placed him in the tub.

"You need to take off his shirt" I told Jane.

She did as I said and took it off.

"I brought the ice" I heared Andrew say as he ran into the bathroom.

"Quick help me pour the ice into the bathtub"

He passed me a bag of ice and then grabbed one for himself. We both then ripped then as open and dumped in the tub with Michael.

It only took about a minute before Michael was completely surrounded in ice. His temperature had gone down a little but not a lot.

I looked down at Jane to see that she was holding his hand and leaning her forehead against his.

"I'm gonna go check on Brooklyn" I told her.

Her head imeadatly shot up. "No, please" she pleaded. "I need you. I need my brother" Her eyes were watery and I could tell she was in pain.

"Fine" I sighed. "Andrew can you go see if Brooklyn is okay?"

"Sure" He turned around and walked out of the bathroom.
