Alex's P.O.V
This morning I was sitting in Magic class, half listening half daydreaming, suddenly I felt really nauseas, Alex are you ok? Justin asked as I ran out of the lair with my hand over my mouth heading for the bathroom. I finally got there and I threw up, I stayed there for a while until I eventually felt well enough to go downstairs. I thought to myself I never get sick, aside from the time when Uncle Kelbo turned me into a sea monkey. Everyone was wondering why I had a cold for a month. As I got out of the bathroom Justin was coming up the stairs, why are you coming out of the bathroom?, why did you run out of the lair? Crap what do I say, I can't say that I was sick, because then he'll ask loads more questions. "Um, I had to use the toilet" I said nervously. "You looked sick when you left the lair", Justin accused. "Yea I was just thirsty, I had a drink before I came up here". I was hoping he would buy my story. "Ok" he said like he didn't believe me. He looked at me all over and then he left. It was then time for school so I grabbed my bag and shoved my wand into my boot and went downstairs, got my lunch and then headed off for school.
At my locker "Hey Harper" I said as she walked into school dressed like cotton candy. I then noticed Justin watching me. Max was showing some girl a piece of cement that had chipped of the footpath outside the sub-station. "Oh, hey Alex", Do you like my dress?" Harper asked. She was wearing a dress made from cotton candy. "Yea, do you have any real cotton candy I can eat? " I knew you'd ask that so I brought in some more so you wouldn't eat my dress. "You know me to well" I said as I took the cotton candy from Harpers hand. I ate it all, and then realising this was a bad idea I rushed to the bathroom; I decided to stay there knowing that my first lesson was maths and I never went anyways. The rest of the school day was boring as school usually was. Luckily it was Friday and the next day was the weekend.
At home that night I still felt a little sick so I decided to go to bed early so Justin wouldn't pester me about what happened at school today, knowing that he saw the whole thing from when I arrived at school and when I started talking to Harper he had kept watching me, I think he knew something was going on. As I came out of the bathroom Justin was waiting for me. "Why do you have your pyjamas on"? He questioned. "I'm going to bed" I said like he was so stupid I was getting into bed with a face washer over my head because I felt really hot. "But you never go to bed this early"? "Well I am today"? I replied.
Very early the next morning, I woke up feeling really sick, as I ran for the bathroom, I saw Justin coming out of his room and running after me "Alex?" Justin shouted as he hurried after me and dashed into the bathroom as I was being sick. After I finished I just lay there not having the strength to get up and go to bed. But then Justin came over and picked me up and carried back to my bedroom and placed me on my bed. "Are you ok"? he said sitting at at the end of my bed."Yea, I've just been really sick lately". I thought there was no point in lying again after what he just saw. "Do you want me to tell Mum and Dad"? Justin asked "No" I said quickly "I'll probably be feeling better soon ". I did not want Mum and Dad knowing then they'll just fuss over me and I would have to drink some of Mum's disgusting tea tree oil that she makes.
I tried to show a smile as mum brought pancakes down to the table for breakfast I knew I probably shouldn't be eating but I ate some of it anyways, "How are you feeling?" Justin whispered "I feel normal again" I replied knowing full well this was a lie as my pancakes decided to repeat itself causing me to run upstairs to the bathroom, Justin knows I was lying now I thought. Mum came up and asked where I went during breakfast and I said that I heard my phone ringing and I went to go answer it. I spent most of the day in bed watching TV like I usually did and Mason came over. "Hello love" he said as he walked into my bedroom. "Hey" I said casually, "what's up?" he asked. "Oh nothing just hanging in my room I replied. " Do you want to go out for pizza?". "No I'm not that hungry" "Alex what's going on? You love pizza and always want a pizza party to celebrate everything, so you're either sick or really really tired." "I'm just really tired" I say. "Ok now I know your lying because you always look really annoyed and you roll your eyes when you're lying." "I'm fine I'm just a little bit sick that's all, so you don't have to worry I said trying to get comfortable while lying on my bed. " ok well you get better and I'll see you tomorrow" Mason said softly he kissed me and then left.
That night I felt really unwell so I creeped out of bed and opened Justin's door to his room which was alight since he had his lightsaver night light on like always. "Justin?" I asked quietly. He sat up immediately and said "Alex its 2am in the morning, what is it? " "I um i feel, can u take me to... before I could say another word everything turned black and before I knew it I was falling onto the floor of Justin's bedroom. When I woke up I was in the hospital and it was still dark. "
