Riley's POV:
"Riley, can you come in here." Corbyn said sticking is head out of the slightly opened door. Everyone looks at me. I stand up and slowly walk into the room scared of what I'm going to see. Is Daniel okay? I don't want to see him sad or mad. I walk into the room and see Daniel balling his eyes out on his bed. "He's really upset." Corbyn said as I get to the door. I look at him, crying. Oh no. I'm about to cry. It's sad seeing someone you love sad. "He said he wanted you." Corbyn said. He wanted me? Aww I love him. I walk into the room. He sees me and starts crying even more. "What's the matter?" I asked sympathetically. He just gives me a hug. He doesn't say anything. I hold him and rub his back as he cries heavily into my chest. I just let him get it all out.
When he's done crying, he stops hugging me. I look him in the eyes. "Now tell me what's wrong." I said. I wipe the tear that's on his cheek. "I miss my dad." He said. "Awww, Daniel. I know you do." I said. "I just...I wanna see him. I want to know that he loves me and care about me." He said. I swear I was this close to crying. "Maybe we can call him and he can come over." I said. Daniel nods. Corbyns just standing in the corner watching. "Wanna go back in the living room? Everyone wants to know if you're okay." I said. Daniel nods and looks me in the eyes like I'm the most beautiful person ever. I wipe away his tears. He smiles and lays his head on my chest as I give him a hug. He lifts his head off my chest and gives me a kiss. I smile and we stand up. "You okay?" Corbyn asked. Daniel nods and we walk into the living room. We sit down on the couch. Daniel lays his head on my chest. I smile and put my arm around him. He closes his eyes. "You okay, baby?" Keri asked him. He nods not opening his eyes. I rub his back and lay my head on his. "He misses his father. Do you think he could come over to visit?" I asked Keri. "I'll call him." She said. She takes out her phone and dials Jeff, Daniels dads, number. As she talks to him, I continue to rub Daniels back. "You okay?" I asked. He nods his head. "I have a headache." He said in a slight whisper. "You're very warm." I said feeling his forehead and cheeks. I try to lift him off of my chest so I can see if he's pale or anything but he's unable to lift his head. "You can't sit up?" I asked him. "I'm too dizzy." He said in a faint tone of voice. I just let him lay on me. He seems very tired. I can feel him sweating through his shirt. This isn't good.
10 minutes later, I hear a knock at the door. It must be Daniels dad. Keri walks to the door and opens it. "Hi." She said awkwardly. She hasn't seen him since the hospital. "Where's Daniel." He said completely ignoring Keri. He walks into the house. She looks hurt. "He's on the couch." Keri said. I look at Daniel expecting him to be happy that his dad is here. He's asleep. I rub his back trying to wake him up. "Daniel." I said. He's sound asleep. Jeff walks to the couch and sees Daniel sleeping on me. He gets a weird look on his face. He rolls his eyes. What the hell was that? He looks at Daniel and sits next to him. He rubs his arm harder than I rubbed his back. "Daniel." Jeff said. Daniel opens his eyes and sees his dad. He smirks. "Hi, buddy. Did you miss me?" He asked. Daniel nods not able to speak or move his body. His dad hugs him. His head is still laying on my chest and my arm is still around him. I feel so bad for him. "You okay?" Jeff asked Daniel. He shakes his head, no. "What's wrong?" He asked. "He doesn't feel good." Keri said. "Oh, I'm sorry." Jeff said. Daniel closes his eyes again. He wanted to see his dad but he's just so weak and sick that he can't keep his eyes opened. "Well, I can be here for you in the morning." He said. "The morning?" Keri asked. "Yeah. I'm gonna sleep over." Jeff said. "Okay. On the couch." She said. Jeff sighs. "Fine." He said. I check the time. It's 8:00. It's getting dark outside. Jeff sits back and watches tv with us. It's kinda awkward.
2 hours later, Daniel is still asleep on me. Jeff is still here. "I'm gonna go to bed." Jeff said. He's sleeping in the couch. "Fine. Let's all go to bed then." Keri said sounding aggravated. Keri goes into Daniels room and Jonah, jack, and Zach go to their room. Me, corbyn, and Daniel are gonna share corbyns room. Corbyn gets up and walks to his room. I shake Daniel a bit. He doesn't wake up. Is he okay? "Daniel?" I said tapping him. He opens his eyes and groans. "What's the matter?" I asked him. "I feel like I'm gonna throw up." He said in a quiet voice. "Okay, then let's get you to the bathroom." I said. He sits up and looks like he's gonna throw up. I stand him up and slowly walk him to the bathroom. As soon as we get there, he throws up in the toilet. A lot too. "Are you okay?" I asked when he was done. He nods and takes a sip of water out of the sink. I walk him to corbyns room. He lays down on the edge of the bed. Corbyn is getting dressed. "Is he okay?" Corbyn asked looking at him laying lifelessly on the bed. "He might have the flu. He threw up." I said. "Oh." Corbyn said as he takes off his shirt. I know I shouldn't be thinking this but corbyn is hot. I know me and Daniel are "dating" or whatever but I've been a fan for two years. I think all the boys are hot. But I could only see myself dating Daniel. And that's how it's gonna stay.
Me and corbyn get into bed. I'm in between them. As soon as I lay down, Daniel lays his head on my chest. I smile and kiss him on top of his head. "I love you." He said in a slight whisper. I smile. "I love you too." I said. Daniels face feels hot on my chest but I feel him smile. I stroke his hair as he falls asleep. I fall asleep too.
