Can I marry you?

I'm a Stegosaurus

I woke up the following morning with a sore throat, stuffy nose, fever, and achy-ness in every part of my body. I took the elevator down to the common room to get some medicine, only to find Alexa, Bruce, Maddy, and Sam there drinking coffee. Of course, I came out of the elevator coughing like a sick child.

"Ellie, you look horrible." Alexa said. I looked at her.

"Thank you, Alexa. To be honest, I actually feel like crap, so." I said, my voice hoarse. I sneezed and felt a pain in my chest. I looked around for Bucky, only to find him not there. Alexa came up and felt my forehead.

"Jesus Ellie, your hot." She said.

"Oh, thank you. I try I look my best when I'm sick." I then grabbed two Tylenol pills out of the cabinet and downed them like a shot. Maddy looked at me.

"Ellie, your usually somewhat perky when your sick." Maddy said.

"Aren't I always?" I asked. My vision started getting black and I felt my knees become weak. I fell against the wall and sat on the ground.

"Whoa, Ellie you need to get to bed." Sam said. Alexa helped me up and I felt my vision start to clear.

"Yeah, I agree." The elevator doors opened to Abby, Clint, Jordan, Thor, and Tony.

"Oh my god, GERMS!!!!" Tony yelled and grabbed a Lysol can out of the cabinet and sprayed where I was sitting. I broke into a coughing fit. Tony sprayed the entire kitchen and covered his face.

"Jesus Tony, it's not like she has Ebola." Jordan said.

"Don't ever say that name. This, " He gestured towards his face, "Can't handle germs. I'm too handsome to get sick." He said and then proceed to tuck and roll behind the couch and put on a mask. I just sighed. Abby walked over to me and looked at my face.

"How long have you been feeling like this?" She asked.

"It started last night." I said. She looked at me.

"If it lasts more than two days, I'd recommend you go to the doctor. You could have Strep Throat." Abby said. Jordan walked over to me. "I know what will make you better!" Abby said.

"Sleep, medicine, and plenty of fluids?" Clint asked as he sat down on one of the chairs.

"Psh, no! A poem dummy!" She replied. "I know a very entertaining one called 'I'm a Stegosaurus!'" She said.

"Oh god, this should be entertaining." Sam mumbled.

"Cough cough. (She literally says it) I'm a Stegosaurus. Big and tall. Rawr!!!!! I eat leaves, so I don't fall. I'm a Stegosaurus. Rawr!!!!!" Abby said. (I actually forget how the poem goes) I tried to laugh, but it turned into a coughing fit.

"Come on. Let's get you to your room." Alexa said. As we stood in front of the elevator, the door opened to Steve and Bucky.

"Ellie, are you alright?" Bucky asked. I shook my head no.

"Ok, even though you both look cute when your worried, especially you Steve, Ellie is actually sick. Now get out of the elevator, so she can get to bed." Alexa said. I smiled slightly, then sneezed into my shoulder. My chest hurt again and I made a small noise. Bucky and Steve were pushed out of the elevator by Alexa. I waved goodbye to Bucky's worried face as the elevator doors closed.

I slept for the next four hours. When I woke up, I drank an entire bottle of water in just a few minutes. My throat was killing me and my nose was stuffed. I laid back into my bed and watched 'Monsters VS Aliens' on my computer. My home phone began ringing. I got up and out of bed, when all of a sudden, my vision started turning black again. My legs were going weak and by the time I reached the phone (800 service) I had almost collapsed on the floor. I started heading back to my room, but I stopped in the middle of the hallway to let my vision get better. Once it cleared up, I sat back in my bed. The experience had scared me.
