TEN

The journey home was quiet that night. When we got home my brothers helped me upstairs and I changed for bed whilst they waited outside. When I was finished they all came back in and helped me into bed.

I could hear my dad speaking to my mum downstairs and heard when my mum let out a little yelp and started to cry.

I felt my eyes start to prick with tears.

"Hey," Ethan said, grabbing my hand, "I'm just going to be in the next room,"

"Can you stay?" I asked timidly,

He smiled and nodded, "I'll just go and get changed for bed then I'll be back"

He changed quickly in his room then came back and climbed into bed with me, he grabbed my hand again and squeezed it, "It's going to be okay Elle"

That was the last thing I heard before I fell asleep.

I woke up to the sun screaming through the cracks in my curtains. I rolled over and looked at the time on my clock, 11:30, it read.

"Crap," I was late for school. I quickly pulled myself up and ran into the bathroom,

"Elle?" I heard someone ask,

I stuck my head from the bathroom and looked to see my mum stood in the doorway; she had obviously been crying. "Why did no one wake me for school?" I asked,

"We thought it may be best if you didn't go today" she replied,

I shook my head, "Why? I'm fine"

"Honey" she said, tears filling her eyes,

"Oh mum" I said going over to her and hugging her, "I'm fine"

She hugged me back and ran her fingers through my hair.

We stayed like that for a while until she spoke again, "Just stay home today?"

I nodded, "Okay"

"Come and eat something, you must be hungry" she said, grabbing my hand and pulling me down the stairs to the kitchen,

"What do you want?" she asked when we go there,

I shrugged, "Anything, I don't mind"

"Sandwich?"

I nodded and smiled.

Food actually ended up being a bad idea. I just ended up throwing it back up into the downstairs toilet whilst my mum held my hair back.

When I was done, mum suggested I try something else, but I declined, not wanting to be sick again.

"Maybe just some water mum?" I suggested to her,

She nodded and went and grabbed me a big glass of water, "Here you go"

"If it's okay mum, I think I'm going to go up to the den and rest for a little while?" I asked,

She nodded, "Of course it's okay honey" she tucked a piece of my hair behind my ear, "Just shout if you want something"

"I will" I said as I made my way up the stairs and to the den.

When I got there, I closed the door behind me and slumped down onto the couch, laying down and resting my head on one of the pillows.

I grabbed the TV remote and put the TV on, switching through the channels before stopping on a FRIENDS episode I had seen many times.
