Normal - 13

I was tired of being treated as the sick person.

That's all I seemed to be to them.

The gang was hanging out on the set of the student lounge. Lili has told me that I needed to take a nap. To be honest I was exhausted and didn't feel like arguing. Once I woke up they were still in the student lounge.

"Babe, come sit." Lili grinned making room for me on the couch. "How did you sleep?"

"Fine. What were you guys talking about?" I asked the group. The silence was almost awkward.

"We were talking about what Casey's going to do on the Riverdale break." Lili said at last.

"What's he think about doing?" I really had to try hard to get the conversation to flow.

"Well I'm telling him he should get involved in a broadway show. He isn't sure though." Cami sighed.

"I love broadway. But I don't know, part of me wants to work on a film. You guys are always telling me how much fun it is." Casey shrugged.

"Five feet apart was a great experience. Very different from anything else. It really depends. I can see you on broadway." I added, and just like that things were back to normal. We talked about our upcoming projects and it was as if nothing had changed. But it had.

"Cole I have to go to set but don't forget to take your meds." Lili said. I felt defeated. It's like she's afraid that something is going to happen to me.

"Don't worry Lili. I wont forget." There was a hint of annoyance in my voice.

"Don't use that tone Cole, I'm just looking out for you." Lili snapped.

"I'm not a child Lili. I can remember to take a pill." I grumbled.

"I know you aren't Cole. You're the most handsome grown man I've ever seen." Lili smiled. "I love you."

"I love you too." I said back. Everything almost felt okay again.
