When Mike got home later that night, all the lights were out and everyone seemed to be asleep.
He tiptoed in and went straight to his room, Nancy had heard him come in from her spot on her bed but chose not to get up.

When Mike was finally settled in bed, he felt more exhausted than usual and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow, not knowing that he wasn't going to be sleeping for very long.

It was 2:30 A.M. the next time that Mike woke up and he was 100% sure he was about to throw up.
Stumbling to the bathroom, Mike was sure he made a huge racket but he couldn't bring himself to care as he lurched over the toilet with the first heave

Nancy blinked slowly as a crash came from the hallway
Her heart started beating fast but she was curious and wanted to know what was going on.
In the hallway, Nancy could see a lamp that was knocked over and the bathroom door pulled shut with the light on.
"Mike?"  Mike responded with a whimper and a gag which caused Nancy to quickly swing open the door and kneel by his side.
After 20 minutes of throwing up, Mike leaned back on Nancy and wiped a few stray tears from his eyes.
"What happened bud?" Mike looked up at his sister with blood shot eyes
"I-i spent the d-d-day with w-will, he was sick." The choked up sentence was enough of an explanation for Nancy and she pulled her younger brother into her arms and rocked her gently.

Over the next 3 hours, Mike was constantly throwing up, he couldn't keep down water and his high fever was making him extremely emotional
At 6:00 A.M. Nancy decided to call it and take the boy to the hospital, he had to be dehydrated and his fever was sky rocketing.

Once he was in the car, Nancy handed Mike a bucket and laid a blanket over his shoulders

"We're gonna get you all fixed up, just relax"
10 minutes later they pulled up to the hospital and Nancy slowly helped Mike out of the car, she had never seen Mike this sick.
When they finally got in, they were taken back to a room immediately due to the severe vomiting and high fever.
IVs, doctors, nurses, fluids, vomit, crying.... this was pretty much what the next 2 hours consisted of.... it was miserable.

Meanwhile, Lucas, Dustin, and Will had all gotten to school and were waiting for Mike to arrive
"Maybe he's just running late" Lucas reasoned when the first bell went off
"Ya right, Nancy wouldn't let him be late a day in his life" Lucas looked at Dustin and sighed
"You're right, this is weird" While the other two boys were talking, Will was internally freaking out,
'Where was Mike?'
'Why was he late?'
'Was he okay?'

"Earth to Will" Will noticed the hand being waved in front of his face.
"Sorry, What?" Lucas chuckled
"I said we need to get to class, hopefully Mike will show up later"

When lunchtime came around, Will was a antsy anxious mess, wondering where his best friend was
"Will, chill out dude, I'm sure it's something totally simple that we just haven't figured out yet, we'll go to his house after school and everything will be cleared up" Will looked at Lucas and relaxed slightly, don't get me wrong, he was still panicking but now he was slightly calmer.

When the boys got to Mikes house, no one answered the door and Will's Panic picked up again
"If he didn't come to school, he would be at home, where else would he be" Will was pacing in front of the steps and Dustin and Lucas were watching him.
"He would have told us last night if he was going somewhere today."
Will paced for another 5 minutes, getting more anxious by the second, before he heard a car in the driveway, Will shot his head up and saw that it was Nancy's car. Will watched as Nancy got out and then walked around to the other side, where Mike obviously was.
Will was still frozen watching the scene in front of him.
Nancy helped a very ill looking Mike of of the car and wrapped a blanket astound he shoulders, she reached in the car and grabbed what looked like some kind of bucket.
When they got to the door she held up a finger to the boys so they knew to wait before firing questions at them, she motioned for them to come inside and then slowly helped Mike onto the couch.
Once Mike was settled, already half asleep, Nancy turned to talk to the boys
"I took him to the hospital in the middle of the night last night, we've been there all day." Nancy explained before the boys could start asking her.
"Is he okay?" Lucas asked
It suddenly hit Will that Mike was with him the whole time he was sick and he was most definitely the reason he was sitting on the couch looking horrible right now.
Nancy noticed his face and remembered what Mike had told her in the early hours of the morning
"Hey Will, don't stress about it, he fine, why don't you guys hang out here, I'm sure he'd enjoy the company."
So that what they did, the other boys went home but Will stayed, for three days.
He didn't leave Mikes side until he was feeling 100% again.
