pain e.g.d

parties aren't my thing

bailey
"wait, bailey-" grant tried to call as i rush up stairs, trying to not let him know what is happening. i stop in my room, the pain seems to be gone, until i get a wave of emotion and pain. i grab my stomach as i rush to the toilet, lifting the lid and vomiting.

after a good minute, i lay there holding the edge of the toilet rim afraid of puking again. i hear a soft knock on the door. "bailey, are you okay? i'm coming in," and before i could deny, i see Grant walk up to me, fear in his eyes. "oh, my gosh. what happened to you?" he rushes up accompanying me on the floor, "too many pizza slices?" i tell him, sounding more like a question knowing he wouldn't believe it. he raises an eyebrow and i struggle to get up. once i do i lower the lid onto the toilet and flush it.

"seriously, what happened?" he asked rubbing my back up and down. "i don't know," i say cringing slightly at the bitter taste, "just an upset stomach i guess." he shakes his head as i wash my mouth out and make my way to my bed, him following right behind me.

he checks my forehead, "oh, my god, you're burning up," he says getting his phone out of his pocket and dials a number, "hey bro, look i know we were going out but my sister's like real sick," i cut him off before he could go any farther, "grant harper," he turns at me, "you don't have to take care of me. go out, have fun, i'm sure Dad will be home in an hour or so." he shakes his head, "i'll be okay grant." he bites the inside of his cheek.

"i promise." i say honestly, knowing i've been through this before. "ughhh okay." he groans, i smile as he ends the call. "love you and i'll be back soon. don't leave the house and uh- what else am i forgetting..." his voice fading away, "go!" i yell as he waves leaving the room.

i knew he was trying, and that's all i could ask for. i swallow hard as i lay my pounding head on my pillow. i shut my eyes until my phone vibrates and the room is lit up with a blue light. i grab it, confused from the notification, and bring it to my face only to see something i wasn't expecting.

ethan dolan added you on snapchat

i choke on my breath slightly as i slide the notification, opening snapchat. before i could click accept i heard the door open and clatter downstairs.

i shut my phone off and made my way downstairs. once i reach the bottom step, i saw my dad trying to find the remote.

i laugh as he finally found it, turning off the tv then turned his head to see me. "hi dad," i say as i walk towards him and he hugs me tight. "hi angel." he says before letting out a sigh.

"so, how was today?" i ask sitting down, leaning my elbows on the counters. he slides his shoes off before saying, "good. the kids are learning really well."

my dad works at a school, but not just any ordinary school, Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted. it's a school for supernatural beings like grant and i. vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts, you name it, it's most likely there. my dad and his partner, caroline, own it.

i used to go when i was a child but when our mom died, he didn't want us to be in harm for our powers. so, he took us out and pretended as if we didn't have any. we pretend not to use them but i know he knows we do. just not in the ways he thinks.

"that's good. well, i'm going to head to bed. grant's out with his friends but he'll be back soon." once i say this his head nods as he looks down at his paperwork. "love you." i tell him as i walk up the stairs into my room, hearing a faint 'i love you' back from him.
