Sweet Creature (H.S)

Chapter 25

Didi's POV

"Okay, so you just lie down, take some rest, I'll make some soup for you." I said but he held my hand.
"Hey, I'm not hungry. You sit here next to me." he said.

Harry's POV

"Okay, so you just lie down, take some rest, I'll make some soup for you." she said and was going to walk into the kitchen but I held her hand.
"Hey, I'm not hungry. You sit here next to me." I said.
"Okay, but tell me if you want anything." she said.
"Okay, I'll tell you. But now, do you wanna see a movie?" I asked.
"Ummm, yeah, which one?" she asked.
"Fault in our stars?" I asked.
"What? No. I can't help but cry when I see that." she said.
"C'mon, I'll hold you tight when you cry." I said.
"Okay, okay." she said.

She sat next to me and touched my forehead.
"Harry do you have a thermometer?" she asked.
"Yeah, it's in the drawer next to my bed I guess." I said and she went to bring the thermometer and her phone started ringing. I saw the caller and it was her best friend Mel. I thought I'll pick it up and play a few pranks.
"Hello! Didi! I told you to call me up. Why didn't you? I told you I wanted to know everything about your date. You promised me." she said in one go. Do they tell each other everything? I mean, that's what I heard girls do.
"Hello" I said.
"Who's this? I'm gonna call the police if you even touch my best friend." Mel said through the phone. I was trying hard to control my laughter.
"How do you know I touched your friend?" I said.
"What?" she said.
"And I even stole something of hers." I said.
"Whoever you are. What do you want?" she said.
"First let me tell you. I not only touched your best friend Diya, but I was her first kiss and about that stealing thing, yeah, I stole her heart." I said.
"Oh my god are you Harr-" Mel was gonna say something when Diya came in and took the phone from me.
"Hey, Harry whom are you talking to?" she asked.
"It was your friend Melody. I kinda pranked her a bit, but now she knows it's just me." I said.
"Oh, okay." she said and started talking on the phone.
"Hey Mel. Oh yeah, that was Harry. Actually he's not feeling well. Yeah. So, I'll call you later? Yeah, promise. Yeah. Okay. Bye." she said.
"She said that she actually got scared for a second." Diya said.
"Yeah, I know."
"By the way, the thermometer was not in the drawer next to your bed, but in the guest room." she said.
"Oh, sorry. I'll keep it properly next time." I said.
"Hey, don't be scared of me. I'm not that like Monica." she joked.
"I know, I was just kidding. C'mon let's watch the movie." I said.
"First let's check your temperature." she said.
"Okay." I said.
She checked my temperature and said,
"Okay, it's 100.4°F. We don't want that to increase. So you take a pill. But you should not take a pill on an empty stomach. So first let me make something for you. What do you-?" she was gonna say something but I interrupted her and kissed her.
"Stop worrying so much. Now let's just cuddle and watch the movie. I'll be okay. If the temperature still doesn't reduce then I'll take a pill." I said.
"Okay." she said.
As we were watching the movie, I looked at her. She was so beautiful.
"Ummm, why are you staring like that?" she said.
"Am I not allowed to?" I said.
"Oh no, that's not what I meant." she said.
"I know, I know. I was just thinking how beautiful you are." I said and I could see she was blushing.
"What? No one ever told you that?" I said.
"I mean, yeah, my mom, dad, friends. But not like this." she said.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot, I was the lucky guy. The first one to have the right to call you his girlfriend." I said and kissed her cheek.

Didi's POV

I looked at my left and saw that Harry was asleep. He looked so cute. I touched his forehead. His fever had reduced. I was just getting up to take my phone and Harry held my hand and mumbled, "Ummm, stay, umm." He was so adorable.
I decided to call Jeff coz I knew he'd be worried. I was always home by this time.
"Hey Diya. Where are you?" Jeff said.
"I'm at Harry's place. Actually he's not feeling well." I was gonna say something till I heard Harry cough.
"Harry are you okay?" I asked him.
"Yeah, I think that cold is now turning into cough. How am I gonna sing?" he said.
"Don't sing for a few days. You need to give your voice a little bit rest." I said.
"I know." he said.
"Just a second, Jeff's on the phone." I said.
"Oh yeah, you're always home by this time right?" he said.
"Yeah." I said.
"Ummm, can you please,umm." he said.
"Jeff, I'll call you in two minutes. Okay? Yeah. Bye." I said.
"What happened? Is everything okay?" I asked.
"Yeah, umm, I was just asking, if, you could stay. I don't wanna be alone and I don't feel that well." he said. I didn't want to say no to him. He was really not feeling well.
"Okay, but I'll just call Jeff and tell him." I said.
"Thank you." he said hugging me.
