Supporting life

Chapter 11: Sick...Baby?

Hi guys!

So I wrote this chapter ages ago so the authors note at the bottom was written long ago.

But I just want to say sorry for taking so long to update I've been super busy but great news.....I break up for summer this Friday. YAY!!

So I'll be updating more. Also, with more consideration I'm not entering this book for wattys, I just think it's very stupid for me to enter and so I'm not.

Anyways hope you enjoy. Bye!!

Friday

"Girls get up we're gonna be late" I call as I kept giving the clock worrying glances "Girls"

"Seriously" A voice snarled behind me.

"What?" I snapped at Lucy not wanting to deal with her crap this morning.

"Do you have to be that loud? Why don't you stop being a lazy bugger and go up to their room and get them instead of waking up the whole street" She rubs her eyes, I just roll my eyes.

Seconds later, the girls walk into the kitchen still in their pjs.

I let out a well needed groan "Why are you both still in your dressing gowns?" It was a rhetorical question but it didn't stop Margo from answering.

"We don't feel well" Margo moans and at first I thought she was faking it but then Mel tightens her arms around her stomach and winced.

"Let me take your temperature" I take the thermometer out of the cupboard and check them. It turns out they were telling the truth and their temperature was a little high.

"Ok girls go back up to bed I'll bring up some soup later" I say softly and watch their slumped retreating figures.

Great. A whole day with Lucy. Great.

I call the primary school the girls go to and inform them, like always they grilled me about why I was calling and not the legal guardian but I guess it's their job to ask these sorts of questions. I then called Hayden high and told them I was sick seeing as they would obviously be concerned if I said my sisters were sick and I had to watch them and then I texted my friend group chat and told them.

"I hope they're ok" ~Lauren.

"Tell them King C will come around later to teach them no dance moves" ~Corey.

"I'll bring the ice cream" ~Molly.

"I'm sure that will make them better"~Molly.

"I'll rewatch frozen with them to cheer them up"~Justin.

"You all make it sound like they just got back from war"~ Me.

"Their fine, just go bit of the flu"~Me.

"Well we're still bringing in reinforcements after school"~Corey.

I laugh at their stupidness and then my phone pinged again. I expected it to be from the group chat but it was from Mason.

"Hey can you tutor me after school for English"~Mason.

I was surprised that he was actually going along with what the school asked us to do or well asked me to do. I thought that he would just bugger off and we would get on with our lives. I had nothing against Mason like I did at the beginning I've noticed he's actually a fun guy to hang out with, minus the arrogance and self absorbents, I think I could tolerate him but I couldn't tutor him because of the girls.
