  I awake with this horrible sensation in my head, not knowing why at first. I've been feeling like this for a couple of days seeing as I'm sick but it hasn't seemed to be getting better. I hear rustling at my door and then a knock, "Come in." I say. It's dixie, she's carrying a bowl. "I brought you soup" she says timidly.

Me and Dixies friendship has weird for the past couple of weeks. We've been friends since she got here, hitting it off immediately. But recently we've drifted, I have no idea why. It started with us just talking less and whenever I tried to say something to her she would just ignore me. I soon gave up on trying to talk to her. It hurt but I figured she had a good reason as to why.

I was confused as to why she decided to be nice to me now but I wasn't gonna say anything at the moment. "Thanks dix." I said, smiling slightly. I sat up quickly but that had been a mistake. It felt like my head was going to burst. Dixie rushed over to me, "Are you okay?" she asked quickly, eyes widening. I grunted in response and soon she was sitting next to me rubbing my back.

"I need you to eat this so you can take some medicine" she said softly but sternly at the same time. "Why are you being so nice to me?" I asked, finally letting the question out. She froze but quickly just shrugged in response.

It was a weird response but I was in too much discomfort to question her. "Just eat you're food before it gets cold" I comply and begin to eat. "I'm sorry I've been such a jerk recently, I hope you're not too mad at me." Dixie said, breaking the silence. "Why've you been ignoring me, what happened to us?" I questioned. She looked down and shrugged her shoulders.

It was frustrating, I just wanted an answer, anything that showed she cared. "Fine. Be like that." I said passive aggressively. "Addi I'm sorry, I had some stuff I was trying to figure out. I never meant to hurt you." I looked at Dixie after that and immediately all of my negative feelings I had left. Her bottom lip was jutting out just slightly and she had her head hung down as she played with the fabric of my sheets.

I didn't know why I felt like this, it was a warm, fuzzy feeling. Maybe it was just from the soup. I turn towards her, "Dixie it's okay, I just missed you that's all" I smiled at her. Her mood changed almost immediately after I said that, looking happier than before happier. "I'm so glad to hear that, I was afraid I had ruined everything" she said as she smiled at me. "Nothing could ever come between us Dixie, I care about you too much to let that happen. You should know that." I swear I saw a blush creep up onto her face but I figured it was just my eyes playing tricks on me.

I started to feel tired again and I guess she could tell, She went to get up but for some reason I immediately grabbed her hand. "No, stay." I rushed out. "Uh, I mean, you can stay here. Only if you want to though." I could feel my face going red as I mumbled the last few words quickly.

She layed down again next to me. I had already put my bowl to the left of my bed and was ready to go back to sleep. It was awkward for a second, both of us stiff and silent. But quickly I grew tired of it and crawled into her side. She tensed at first but quickly relaxed and put her arm around me. I fell asleep within minutes comfortable in my spot. I don't know why, but cuddling with Dixie made me feel safe, and that warm fuzzy feeling returned.
