Amelia's Sick Day

A/N I do not own any of the images they belong to their rightful owners.

Still wrapped in her blanket cocoon Amelia felt miserable when she woke up with a headache. Moving her right arm sluggishly out from the blankets she touched her forehead which as sweaty and burning hot with a fever, 'I can't deal with this right now. I need to get ready for school,' Amelia thought as she sluggishly got up from the couch, 'One of them probable placed me there, I'll thanked them later but I can let any of them know I got sick from my stunt two days ago. I kept a secret since yesterday but it seems like it has gotten worse today.' Dressing in a long sleeved red of the shoulder shirt, black jeans, blue fingerless gloves and white low heel boots, checking her appearance with her pocket mirror she saw how sickly pale she was. Pulling her red hair into a messy bun and applied some make up to bring back a healthier complexion instead of her sickly pale complexion, checking the time she saw that Amelia still had time to get a light lunch for school along with some medicine.

Slowly walking down the steps she saw her three guardians ready to pick up their other charges, Amelia approached Bumblebee thinking against driving since she's sick. "Hey, Bee mind if I tag along to pic up Raf?" Amelia asked proud that her voice didn't sound like she was sick. Bumblebee agreed transforming into his vehicle mode, Amelia took the back seat strapping herself in as Bee drove to Raf's house. Upon arriving at Raf's house, Amelia felt her headache worsen by the minute but ignores it not wanting to burden anyone since the bots are busy trying to defeat the Decepticons or bother her other human companions. "Good morning, Raf," Amelia greeted as Raf entered the car, he smiled at her since she usually drive her motorcycle to school.

"So you finally decided that would allow one of the Autobots escort you to school?" Raf questioned suspicious of the reason for Amelia to allow the bots to take her to school, he's happy that she's doing this but he has feeling there is reason behind it.

"I miss picking you up from your house. Ever since we met the Autobots I couldn't do that anymore," she answered, knowing if Raf knew Amelia was sick he would worry about exerting herself and making her more sicker than she already is. As they arrived at Memorial High she bid Bumblebee and the other two bits a quick goodbye before rushing to the girls bathroom feeling nauseous. Washing away the nasty taste of vomit from her mouth with water and making sure she was presentable, walking out of the girls restrooms she saw Miko was about to enter as Raf and Jack stayed outside waiting for them.

"Are you okay? Why did you leave so quickly?" Miko questioned concerned for the red headed teen but she has a guess as to what it might be until Miko can prove that Amelia is sick.

"I'm okay, guys. I just had use the bathroom because I don't want to fail any of my subjects in class," Amelia lied as she walked to her first class which was math. Finishing her morning classes her last one is History, Amelia was rubbing her forehead from the headache and vision was slightly getting blurry she was glad that Raf, Miko and Jack weren't in her last class right now because they would know something is wrong. Her teacher saw Amelia looking sick so he approached her side asking her if she needed to see the school's nurse, she denied saying it's a slight headache from trying to learn everything she can so that Amelia wouldn't fail her subjects. He knew Amelia is stubborn for asking help from others if she got hurt or sick she would always act like she's fine. When lunch finally arrived, 'Scrap! I forgot to ask Bee to stop at a gas station for lunch and medicine. I'll just see if the cafeteria has something light to eat,' she thought entering the cafeteria, Amelia saw chicken Caesar salad. Grabbing that with a apple and a water bottle, she paid for her meal and chose to sit closer to the exit, eating her meal she saw Miko, Raf and Jack few tables away from her. They kept glancing at her like they know something is wrong, ignoring their stares she continues to eat her meal.

Finishing her meal she felt slightly nauseous, she grabs her water bottle taking tiny sips so that it will help get rid of what she's feeling slightly better after taking little sips. Her last two classes are Chemistry and PE thinking better of not skipping her two classes as Amelia felt she could handle her last two classes before walking to a convenience store. Amelia has Chemistry with Jack and Raf, once she arrived at the class room everyone has taken their seats since their teacher started class. She was trying to focus on her lessons but Amelia felt woozy so closing her eyes for a moment to steady herself she quickly wrote down what the subject was about before the bell rang to inform them if their last class. Walking quickly to the Gym so that she get the day over with but she was feeling dizzy, nauseous and her fever was getting slightly worse. 'Just one more class and I'll be fine,' Amelia thought as the coach told them to run around the basketball court five times.

Once class was done Amelia felt sluggish leaving the school while approaching Bumblebee as her head pounding. Entering the vehicle she closed her eyes in discomfort of how bad Amelia was feeling right as they arrived at base. Raf exited the vehicle first before Amelia who felt like her world was spinning before collapsing after exiting the car. Hearing muffled cries when she collapsed she barely opened her eyes to see everyone's worried face including Ratchet's as barely heard what they were saying before falling unconscious. Opening her heavy eyelids she felt a wet cloth on her forehead and warm blankets around her slightly shivering body, "What happened?" Amelia hoarsely asked herself, trying to sit up but she felt a hand gently push her back down.

"You need to rest," Ratchet's holoform told her as Amelia saw the Autobots in their holoforms were right at her side when they heard her speak along with Jack, Raf and Miko.

"Why didn't you tell us you were sick?" Raf asked worried about her health and sad that she kept it a secret.

"I'm sorry, Raf. I just didn't want to worry anybody about this. The Autobots have enough on their plates worrying about the Decepticons and didn't want to be bother them or any of you with this," Amelia answered as she went into a coughing fit. Jack gave Amelia a bottle of water, taking a sip she nods her head in thanks before lying back down.

"Amelia, you might not know this but everyone in this room was worried about you when you collapsed myself included," Optimus informed as he took the dry cloth on her forehead and rewetting it, placing it back on her forehead. "If you ever feel sick again please tell us. Your not in the way of defeating the Decepticons," Optimus stated as everyone nod their head in agreement.

"I promise I'll tell one of you if this ever happens again," Amelia promised not use to having help besides from her mother and Miss Hana.

"Good because I notified the school that your sick and you won't be attending any classes until you are 100% healthy," Ratchet informed as Amelia groaned in annoyance that he had to tell the school she's sick but smiles no the less because of her friends' worrying over her
