  "I believe Jess must of chased off the nurses", I tell my mom as I wake up to sunlight shining through the blinds. She was sitting next to me reading a book called Dry Blood. Her smile made me smile. "He's been sleeping for a while now, I think he might have stay with you all night", She looks over to Jessie sleeping on the couch. He looked like a angel. "His mom said he hadn't slept in four days".

The nurse comes in with breakfast, She smiles putting the food on the roll table then steps out. I couldn't stand the smell of hospital food, much less the bland taste. Another thing you would think they would give good food to the patients and season the food, Mom pull the top off, it was eggs, grits, toast, and peaches. I made a nasty face. "I'm not hungry". Mom gives me a face telling me that she was upset,

"Yes you are", I hadn't notice Jessie had woke up, he was now standing on the side of my mom giving me the same look. I looked between the both of them, "I'm really not hungry, I'm actually a little nauseated". Jessie sighs in agervation.

"That might be why your nauseated, you need to eat", Mom says in a low tone. I knew if mom wasn't in here Jessie would be losing his shit cause I wasn't eating. But we still wern't ok and not eating was because I was emotional, I just lost my appetite. I look over at Jessie, he was rolling his eyes and went and slumped back on the couch. "You want some cold water?", Mom asked. I nod my head forgetting that she had to leave me alone for a while to go down stairs to get it, A nurse walks in bringing a bad with my meds in it, the shipment must have finally came in. "Finally", Jessie says rudely. I made a mean face at him.

"Thank you", I tell the nurse.

"This is a lower dose, so you will be able to keep awake and get some food in you", She smiles and walks out leaving me and Jess alone.

Jessie stands up walking to the food and rolling it in front of me, "Eat", He says pointing at the food. "What are you my mom?", I asked pushing it away. He starts to press the button to sit me up, my palms began to become sweaty, "Wait Jess I haven't tried to sit up yet".

"Well you are now", He says slowing lifting it. I felt a few stings in my side as I got more and more up I made a few hurtful faces. He lifts me enough to sit up but still also enough to lay back, he grabs a pillow, pulls me up putting on arm around me and sets it behind my lower back. He was doing all this whether I liked it or not and I could kick and scream but I knew that wouldn't do any good, He puts the food back in my face. "Eat Nick, its the only way we can get you out of here, is if you eat and start moving around a little".

I was getting annoyed with him, so I made a nasty face grabbing a fork and slowly get a little piece of egg and bring it to my mouth, the smell made me cringe, He looked at me with a face rasing his eyebrows at me to push forward and take a bite, I take it quick, it tasted of card board, but I took another bite and Jessie nodded in success that he got me to eat.

"Wow, your sitting up and eating", Mom says smiling with a cup of water with a bendy straw, I made a nasty face at her, she handed me the water. I ate one egg and a piece of toast. "Eat more", Jessie says.

"Its gross", I say.

"Its food", Jessie says.

"Fine take a taste then", I say pushing the table and tray to him.

He takes a taste, making the best face in the world, it made me and mom laugh out loud, "Ouch", I make a sad face because of the pain in my ribs from laughing. "That's the first time I seen you laugh, That means you truly are getting better", Mom says laughing.
