I'll Catch You When You Fall
This chapter is dedicated to Abi DiLaurentis! She's so awesome! I really appreciate all her support. Thank you so much! This is for you girl!
Kendall's POV
I sprinkled blueberries on the pancakes that I made for James. He'd been home for three weeks now. I was so proud of James for staying clean, so I just wanted to do nice things to make him feel special.
I heard footsteps coming down the hall, and I got in position. James came into my view, rubbing his eyes. He gave me a strange look.
"Uhhhhhhhhh, Kendall? What the hell is this?" James said. He sounded tired and irritated. I recoiled a bit because of the tone of his voice. He had black circles under his eyes, he was paler than ususal, and he looked so sick and terrible.
"Um, I, uh, made you breakfast," I said, not feeling so confident anymore.
"Oh, okay, thanks, I guess," James said. We sat down, and started to eat. Well, James wasn't really eating, he was just picking and playing with his food. He was shaking and that worried me.
"James, are you okay? You look a little⦠off," I said in a quiet voice. He shot me an annoyed look.
"I'm fine Kendall," James snapped. "You're really starting to annoy me."
"Okay, sorry," I said. I was actually a bit scared right now. James is never usually this bitchy. We finished eating (well, I finished, James never started) and went to the living room. We sat down on the couch and I turned on the TV. I turned on the "Charmed" marathon, and we sunggled up to each other.
After about two episodes, I felt James in my arms.
"Baby, what's wrong?" I asked, getting worried. He began to shake uncontrollably. I tightened my arms around him. I was getting really scared.
He jerked again, and I pulled him up. I carried him to the bathroom as quickly as I could. I set him down in front of the toilet. He gulped and leaned over the toilet. He began to vomit violently. I had never seen anyone throw up this badly before. I held his hair back, and rubbed his back soothingly. I felt so helpless. I couldn't do anything to help James. He continued to vomit for another twenty minutes. When he was done, he fell back into my arms. He had tears streaming down his cheeks. I wrapped my arms around his uncontrollably shaking figure and kissed his forehead. I really couldn't figure out what was wrong with my boyfriend.
He jerked again and leaned over the toilet. I wanted to help James, but I didn't know how. James continued to puke for another ten minutes and fell back again.
"James? James, what's wrong?" I asked. I felt so terrified and worried.
"I-I don't know," James said in a weak voice. "I j-just woke up this morning and f-felt like this."
"Did you eat something you don't usually eat?" I asked.
"N-no," James responded.
"Do you have any idea what might be causing this?"
"I-I think it's just the flu. No big deal," James responded quietly.
"Okay then. Just to be safe, you're going to be on bed rest for the rest of the day," I said.
"Kendall, I'm fine! I d-don't need to be on bed rest!" James yelled.
"Sorry baby, but it's not negotiable."
James pouted and looked at me with the biggest and cutest puppy dog eyes I've ever seen. Damn those fucking puppy dog eyes! He knows I can't say no to them!
"Alright, but if you throw up again, you're on bed rest, and no puppy dog eyes are going to change that!" I said. James smiled and kissed me on the cheek before carefully getting up and leaving the bathroom. What was wrong with James?
I didn't do much for the next three hours. I just watched the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle marathon. At about 2:30, I heard a scream that sounded a lot like Logan.
Logan's POV
I screamed when I saw James lying on the ground in a pool of blood and vomit. I shook him and gently slapped his face. I forgot every medical technique I knew because when it's for real. It's not as easy to be calm and collected.
"James? James? James, please wake up! Please! JAMES!" I screamed. I was trying so hard not to cry.
"KENDALL! KENDALL! SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH JAMES!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
Kendall's POV
I was scared to death as I ran toward Logan's voice. I knew I should have kept my eye on James!
When I got there, I saw James lying in a pool of blood and vomit. It broke my heart.
I knelt down next to James and put his head in my lap.
"Logan, call an ambulance!" I yelled. Logan nodded and ran out of the bathroom. When the paramedics got there, everything was a blur. I saw them put James on a stretcher, and put him in the ambulance. They told me I could ride with them. The whole ride to the hospital I prayed for James.
We got to the hospital and it was like a life or death movie. It really scared me. I couldn't live without James. He was everything to me. Life meant nothing without him.
After James was wheeled into the emergency room, I broke down sobbing. I felt Carlos and Logan wrap their arms around me and whisper that James would be okay, that he was strong, but I didn't know what to believe anymore.
Okay, that's it! I'm so sorry I haven't been able to update lately! I'll try to update Here We Go Again as soon as possible.
Abi DiLaurentis, I hope you liked it. I know it was crappy and short, but I hope you liked it anyways.
Tell me what you think is wrong with James in your review. And remember, reviews are love!
Thanks for reading, bye!
