"A FLU?" I ASKED, trying to figure out if I heard correctly.

"That's what my dad's saying," Jacob groaned from the other end. "I don't feel too good, but it doesn't feel like the flu."

I bit my lip in concern. "I hope you start feeling better." I said sincerely. I really did hope he would feel better soon. I already miss being around him and it's only been a couple of days since we've rode the bikes.

"Let Bella know for me, okay?" Jacob requested. "I don't know if I'll get the chance to give her a call."

"Yeah, okay." I agreed. We ended the call shortly after, after Jacob was saying something about his dad telling him to get into bed and rest. I ended the call with a 'feel better,' to which he agreed he would.

Though, I trusted Billy's judgement on what Jacob had, I still felt like something was off, like there was a missing piece to the puzzle. I shook of the worry before heading down the stairs to talk to Bella.

"Jacob's sick," I announced as I jumped the last step. Bella turned around with a frown on her face. "Billy said so."

"He's sick? He was feeling okay the other day?" She bit her lip in concern.

"Yeah, guess it just came up suddenly." I shrugged my shoulders as I sat down on the chair.

"Maybe I should give him a call to see if he's okay." I grabbed her hand before she could make her way over to the phone.

"Billy told him to get some rest, I think you should let him get better." I gave her a reassuring smile. "He'll be better and on his feet before we know it."

If only I had actually believed my words. Three days later and there was still no sign of Jacob getting better. A couple times I was able to get Billy on the phone and explain how Jacob was, but I was never able to actually talk to Jacob himself. It concerned me, but Billy reassured me that he was okay, and didn't actually need to go to the hospital like I suggested-- or at least he tried to.

Bella has been also trying to get in touch with Jacob, but got the same result as I did. It was starting to put her back in a mood that I wasn't sure I was able to get her out of by myself. She wasn't like she was when I first got here, but she was going back to having her out of mind attitude.
