Hello! I just can't get over how amazing you people are. I've had 508 views on my stories, 452 of them belonging to In sickness and in health. I never would have dreamed of one of my stories getting so many views in such a short amount of time, especially when I just signed up for the website! Sorry I didn't have the next chapter up sooner, but I spent yesterday thinking of ideas and writing this chapter on paper sooo yeah. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: Reporter- Breaking news! Bookworm2808 doesn't own Twilight!

Me- Yeah, I know. Pretty sure the whole world knows it belongs to Stephanie Meyer.

Reporter- Yeah, just wanted to rub it in your face.

Me- Hehe yeah. Hey, anyone got a baseball bat?!

Bella's POV

I never thought I would be woken up by the person I had been dreaming of. At first, I thought it was just the dream caused by the fever, but when I felt the cold touch of his dead skin and heard the sound of his velvety voice, I knew it was really him.

I only wished that when I opened my eyes to look at his godlike face, his features weren't clouded with worry. When he asked me what my symptoms were, I paused, genuinely confused, until I remembered Alice's special ability to see the future. I would definitely need to talk to her about shielding her thoughts better when she sees a vision of me while I'm sick when Edward was around.

As much as I didn't want to tell him, I knew he would need to find out sooner or later so I gave in and answered his question.

I immediately regretted telling him when his already worried face contorted into one of anxiety and panic.

What was his problem? It wasn't like I had pneumonia or tuberculosis or some deadly disease. It was just the flu.

'Wait.' I thought as I suddenly realized why he was so panicked. 'Deadly disease. Flu. The cause of his death was Spanish influenza! That's why he's so worked up about me having the flu. It was the whole reason he lost his family and was turned into a vampire.'

"Hey, don't worry. I know that you...had a bad experience with the flu, but that was then and this is now. They have medicines and things to cure sicknesses like this, so today it's not that big a deal to have something such as the flu." I quickly explained trying to reassure him, though I wasn't doing well as my voice was hoarse and raspy.

My weak reassurance did seem to calm him down a bit, even though he still held a look of concern.

"I know, but I can't help but worry. When was the last time you ate or drank anything?" He asked changing the subject.

"I haven't had anything since yesterday. When I woke up this morning I had been really nauseated and I was so tired that I didn't even think of food." I answered truthfully.

Just thinking about it now made my stomach churn, and I had to take a deep breath to keep myself from blowing chunks all over Edward. However, this small action didn't help much as my relentless stomachache began to intensify causing me to slap my hand over my mouth and try to untangle myself from the heap of sheets on top of me.

Edward seemed to understand as he picked me up and took me to the bathroom in an instant. Before I knew it, I was heaving up the small amount of anything that was left in my stomach while he held my hair up and rubbed my back gently. After a few more minutes of puking and dry heaving, I turned my head and looked at him sheepishly as a blush of embarrassment spread across my face.

"Don't worry love, you don't have to be embarrassed. I'm here for a reason, and that reason isn't to judge you." He said as he helped me to my feet.

When he moved to flush the toilet, I staggered as a wave of dizziness washed over me. Right as I was about to fall, Edward was at my side instantly and quickly picked me up bridal style.

"I'm taking you to Carlisle. You haven't eaten anything and you're dehydrated. I need to make sure you're alright." He said grabbing a blanket and wrapping it around me.

By this point, I couldn't argue with him. The new dizziness had brought with it exhaustion, so I was having a hard time even comprehending what he was saying.

He set me down in the passenger seat of the Volvo, buckled my seatbelt for me, and kissed my head as if I was a child, frowning when he felt the heat of my now escalated fever.

Before he even started the car, I fell into unconsciousness listening to the love of my life humming my lullaby.

I for one am really happy with the way this chapter turned out! In my opinion, I think that it was better than the other two, but that's just me. Don't forget that reviews are greatly appreciated. Bye! :)
