I finally got round to up dating as today is a snow day for mean. So there is no school!

Which gives me more time to write:D

I included the last paragraph of the last chapter at the beginning of this chapter, so you know what has just happened.

As always the italics represent what the character is thinking.


"Baby what's the matter?" Fred said panicking as he rushed forward and wrapped a sobbing Daphne into his arms.

"I do have the flu" Daphne confessed "and now because of me you're not going to be able to go to Florida," she added.

"Oh honey that doesn't matter" Fred said sitting down on the sofa and pulling Daphne on to his lap.

"I don't want to be left on my own!" Daphne sobbed.

"Shhh it's ok Daph, I would never leave you on your own" Fred said "Baby you need to calm down, your not well".

Daphne buried her head into Fred's chest as she sobbed, she tightened her arms around and Fred did the same. Fred loved holding Daphne it felt so nice. There was no one he cared more about then Daphne. He was always there for Daphne when she was upset or unwell.

Daphne eventually calmed down and the sobbing because less and less and soon she was breath calmly. There was something very calming about being in Fred's strong arms. She felt as nothing in the world could hurt her while she was in his embrace.

"Happier now?" Fred questioned with a sweet smile. Daphne nodded. Fred started to stand up and was picking up Daphne with him. Once he was up he gently laid Daphne on the sofa. She immediately shivered she was having another cold flush, Fred immediately took his dressing gown off and placed it over Daphne. She took his hand and squeezed it in thanks. She didn't feel much like talking she felt weak and couldn't be bothered to say much.

"I'll be back in a minute," Fred told Daphne as he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

"Don't leave me," Daphne said feeling like she was about to cry again. "I was just going to get something for my Daphne" Fred said. Daphne managed a weak smile. She absolutely loved Fred he was so kind and considerate and he always knew what to do to make her happy, no matter how she was feeling. "Ok" she answered, "Don't go for long".

Within two minutes Fred returned holding a steamy cup. "Hot Chocolate" Fred announced with a cute grin. Daphne felt like she could have kissed him, she didn't know how he did it but he always knew what she wanted regardless of how she felt. "I am afraid your going to have to sit up while you drink it" Fred said.

Daphne nodded and she allowed Fred to help her into a sitting person. Her head gave another throb of pain "Ow" she cried clutching her head. Fred didn't know why but just then he pulled her into his arms again, he couldn't stand Daphne feeling pain he just wanted to hold her and make it better. Daphne wrapped her arms around Fred's neck and snuggled into him.

"Does it hurt much" Fred questioned. Daphne nodded "I also keep sneezing, and getting these horrible hot and cold flushes".

"Right we are going to get you better" Fred said kissing her on the head.

"I understand if you don't want to keep holding me," Daphne said.

"And why would I want to stop doing such a thing" Fred questioned.

"In case you catch it or something" Daphne answered. "I wouldn't stop holding you even if I could catch it" Fred said "Anyway I can't catch it because I have had it already".

"Really!" Daphne said in shock "When?". "I had it when we all went to visit are parents for the weekend, actually coming to think of it me, Velma and Shaggy had it".

"I was the only one who didn't catch it" Daphne said "I knew you guys where unwell and but I didn't know you had this" Daphne said yawning.

"She took a sip of her hot chocolate" it was nice and soothing soon she had drunk it all. She yawned and she began to feel tired, and before she knew it she drifted off to sleep in Fred's arms. Fred smiled affectionately he was pleased that Daphne had fallen asleep, she needed to rest and she clearly hadn't slept that well the night before.

Fred picked her up and gently laid her on the couch. He hurried upstairs as quickly as he could and got her a clean duvet and pillow and went downstairs. He carefully lifted up Daphne's head and places the pillow under her head. Then he placed the duvet over her. It was essential for her to stay warm even though she was getting flushes because as soon as you have a hot flush you get extremely cold.

He made a hot water bottle for her as well and place that under the duvet as well. He turned the heating up in the room and then satisfied he had done all he could for her now he went about making the breakfast. He went into the kitchen but kept going back into the living room to check on Daphne every 5 minutes. He felt so anxious even though he knew she would be all right. He heard footsteps on the stairs.
