Behind The Scenes Of Choni: A Madnessa Story [DISCONTINUED]

Chapter 27

[MADELAINE'S POV]
I wake up without Vanessa in my arms. I look around quickly. I see Vanessa covered in the blanket, and sweating profusely. She looks paler than usual. I feel her head to find it burning. I walk to the bathroom to get her a wet towel. I take it to her, and set it over her head. The feeling of it wakes her up. "How are you feeling?" I ask. "Cold." She mumbles. Over the years of being friends with Vanessa, I have noticed when she gets sick she also gets very vulnerable. "Baby, you're burning up." I add. She shakes her head. "Cold." She argues.

"Is that all that's wrong?" I ask. She shakes her head. "Tummy." She frowns. "Your stomach hurts?" I ask. She nods. "Let me go get you something for your stomach." I say. "I need you to lay here with this towel on your head, babe." I say. She nods her head and cuddles farther into the blanket.

I leave to the kitchen and look around. I decide on chamomile tea. I have so much tea I bet I could find chamomile somewhere. I look in my cabinet and find chamomile tea. I boil some hot water and pour it into a cup. I put the tea bag in it, and leave to the room. I get back to the room and see Vanessa waiting. She's cuddled tightly in the blanket. I walk up to her and hand her the tea. "Here this should help with your stomach." I say. She nods and drinks it. She cringes at the taste. "It's gross." Vanessa pouts. "It'll help your stomach." I say. She shakes her head. "Gross." She mumbles. "Okay." I sigh. I take the cup away from her and set it on the nightstand.

"Cuddles." Vanessa demands. "One second, baby. I forgot to take my pills." I say leaving to the kitchen. I get the pills and get one from each. I've been taking the pills for a few days. I didn't think they would work as well as they have. I can go in big crowds now and hold Vanessa's hand without a care. I don't have that voice anymore. Although I have a feeling it won't be away forever. I take the pills quickly, and hurry back to Vanessa.

I climb into bed and Vanessa cuddles into me quickly. "How are you feeling?" I ask. She shakes her head. "Bad." She mumbles. "Are you still cold?" I ask. She nods her head. "Do you want a warm bath?" I ask. She nods. Just as I am about to get up she shakes her head quickly. "Don't leave." She begs. "Come here." I say. I get out of the bed and she crawls in front of me. I pick her up and carry her to the bathroom.

I try to set her down but she tightens her grip on me. I sigh and go to the tub to turn on the water. "How warm do you want it?" I ask. "Warm warm." She says. "So hot?" I ask. She nods. I start the bath and set her on the counter. She still has her legs wrapped around my waist and her arms around my neck. "Baby, you have to let go so you can take a bath." I say. I pick her up and set her on the floor. "I will wait for you to finish your bath." I say. She shakes her head. She raises her arms motioning for me to take off her shirt. I take off her shirt and her bra. She slides off her bottoms. She goes to sit in the hot water.

"I'll wait outside for you." I say. She immediately whimpers. "What's wrong, baby?" I ask. "Bath." She says. "What about the bath?" I ask. She pats the water in front of her. "Bath with me." Vanessa says. "You want me in the bath with you?" I ask. She nods her head. I look at her unsure but she looks at me pleadingly. I bite my lip nervously, and undress myself. I walk over to the tub. She pats the water in front of her motioning for me to sit. I sit down in the water and she smiles at me. She climbs in my lap and holds me tightly. She buries her face in my neck. "You're beautiful." Vanessa compliments. "Thank you, baby. So are you." I say.

We sit in each other's arms until the tub gets full. "Baby, you should take a bath now." I say. She shakes her head. I grab the loofah and put body wash on it. I try to hand it to her but she pouts, and shakes her head. I sigh and wash her body with the loofah myself. I rinse her body off with some water. She turns around motioning for me to wash her hair. I grab the shampoo and scrub it into her hair. After washing out her hair I quickly wash myself. I step out of the shower and wrap my body in a towel. I grab a towel for Vanessa and wrap her in it as well. She wraps her arms around my neck, so I pick her up.
