LOGAN'S P.O.V

I woke up at around four to find myself in my room properly tucked in bed. I touched my forehead to find a wet towel there.

I pulled it away and got out of bed. I had not even taken my lunch and my stomach was growling loudly. I walked to the fridge and took out a piece of pizza and orange juice and started walking back to my room.

"You okay bro,"I heard Jasmine say behind me. I gasped turning back to find her at the base of the stairs" I heard some bumbling here so I came down to see if you were awake already"

"Yeah i am.. I didn't know you were there. At home"I said sipping my juice lazily

"I had to drive you home. You had a fever and looked badly off . What's up?"she asked coming near me

I dodged her touch and reached for the remote as I shuffled the channels careless
"I'm fine Jas. You don't have to babysit me"I said making myself comfortable on a pile of cushions.

"Something is bo..,"the doorbell cut her off. She gave me one last worried look then sashayed to the door. "We ain't done with this"

I finished my slice of pizza and walked to put my glass in the sink. I could hear laughter from the door and few noises . Definitely not mum maybe my sister's friends.

I tuned in to Netflix and searched for shadow hunters.

"We have visitors,"Jas said moving aside so I'd get a full view of our visitors. Liam and Dylan...what were they even doing in my house."History project, "Liam offered as if he had read my mind

"Goddamit.temme I ain't doing this shit with him"i whispered to no one

"You ain't bro. Just relax. I was the unlucky one"Jasmine snickered at me.

"So I'm with Dylan? Yoohoo let's get going "I said jumping up from my position but I felt a twinge of pain in my lungs and slowed my steps.
We sat down at the kitchen bar at the center of the kitchen as they took the dining table and we got down to work as soon as I got my books.

"That's enough already . I'm quite exhausted"I stood up closing my books and placing an highlighter in the course book.

Dylan nodded in approval and did the same to his books.

"Want anything to drink or to eat?"I asked walking to the fridge.

"I'm fine".He deadpanned sauntering to hold Jasmine's open hands.

They went upstairs to her room as I took an apple and sat back down at the couch to continue with shadow hunters.

"I admire Malec,"I heard his voice behind me and turned to look at Liam who was staring at me as if he was asking to sit.

"I love them actually."I murmured signalling him to do as he pleases.

We sat in silence before he broke the uncomfortable silence by coming closer to me. I stared at him confused.

"You ain't gonna talk to me,"He asked pausing the episode.

"We sit for forty five minutes without talking what is ten minutes,"I asked in annoyance as I snatched the remote back.

"I'm sorry okay? I had too much going on in my life"he admitted sheepishly.

"Good enough reason to shut the world out,"I spat sarcastically

"Can make things right though"
"Right now..I'm not in the right moods Liam. My life isn't going in the right direction"I said looking at anything but him.

"I know and I'm willing to help you L,"he smiled at me placing his hand on my shoulder. I didn't make any effort to push him away.

His touch seemed to freeze my worries for a moment and I found myself going closer to him but it was short lived I got back to my usual me and took back the remote.
"I know you are sick"I froze turning to look at him.
"What?"
"I.."

"See you getting along,"I heard my sister laugh while staring at us.

"I'm endearing darling"I smiled at her and got up."Time to go to your home Liam,"I said to Liam gesturing at the door.

He got up and collected his books stacking them in his bag

"Can I have your phone?,"he asked as he tied his shoes

"Don't you have yours?,"I asked confused
"'Course I have mine"cocky much?
I pulled my phone from my back pocket and gave it to him. He keyed in his number and called himself so he could get my number.

"Can I save myself?,"he pleaded
"I'll do the pleasure of saving you a name that suits you like snob,"I said grabbing my phone back.

We were now standing stupidly in front of his car.
"Drive safe"I said and started walking back to the house before he called after me "call me if you need anything"

"Whatevs,"I said typing in a name for him in my contact list.
"I won't tell a soul"he said speaking about my sickness.
"I know"
I don't know what was ahead of us but even beings friends was better of.
