I never hated being a human more in my life than I did at this moment.
I woke up to a dull pain in my abdomen – great. I got out of bed, took a shower, and put a pad in my underwear in preparation for Satan's Waterfall that would be mostly likely paying a visit later today.
I was not excited.
"Do your best to have a good day," Mom said as I was walking out the door with Alice. "I know it's not easy right now, but do your best." She kissed me on the forehead.
"I'll try," I said, not even bothering to mention that I didn't feel well. I got in the car with Alice and pulled out my phone.
"Is that that 'Angry Birds' thing?" Alice asked, all excited that she found out what I was doing.
"No, not everyone plays that," I joked.
"Then what are you doing?" She asked me.
"Pinterest," I smiled. She nodded.
"You have a problem."
"And you don't?" I mocked her. When it came to material items, Alice had a lot of problems.
"Not when it comes to Pinterest," she smiled.
We got to school and parted ways. I felt the pain in my stomach a little more, but I didn't let it bother me too much.
"Have a great day, Dani!" Alice called to me and I walked to class.
By lunchtime, I had completely lost my appetite. I didn't eat anything, and I didn't feel like getting interrogated by my friends – or worse – my family if they saw me not eating.
Right before final period, Tyler finally tracked me down at my locker.
"What's the matter with you?" Tyler asked.
"I don't know what you're talking about," I started walking away, trying to make an escape.
"You look like you're gonna hurl," he followed on my heels.
"Oh, so you're a doctor now?" I asked, turning to smirk at him. We had chorus, so we were going to the same place.
"Look, it's my time of the month-" I started and he put his hand up.
"Say no more," he shook his head. "Seriously, though, if you don't feel good, you should go to the nurse."
"I'll get right on that," I said stepping into the chorus room.
In reality, the nausea had increased tenfold since this morning, and I felt terrible. If it wasn't for my family not needing anymore drama in their lives right now, I probably would have babied up and called my Dad to come get me. Me being sick, however, was the last thing everyone needed right now. I'd take some meds when I got home and power through it.
I didn't make it twenty minutes before racing out to the bathroom. I immediately started throwing up, and I couldn't stop. I was in there for about ten minutes before Mariana came in.
"Are you throwing up?" She freaked out. "Should I go get the nurse?"
"No, no I'm fine," I tried to assure her, but I couldn't keep my head out of the toilet.
"What can I do?" She asked sadly.
"Just..." I didn't have time to answer before Alice came bursting in.
"Dani!" She gasped upon seeing me. I waved at her – then promptly threw up again. Well, basically dry heaves. Nothing was coming out anymore.
"I already called Carlisle he's on his way," she explained, coming behind me and rubbing my back. I rolled my eyes. There goes Plan A.
