Thanks ILOVEMBSAV for helping me decide some things about the plot!
Sarah's POV
We were all hanging out at Ethan's, with him being sweet enough to tolerate us. Us meaning Benny, Bailey, Erica, and myself. Rory and his parents were out for lunch, and I hoped they didn't get any dishes with garlic. They would be back soon. I was pleasantly surprised to see Benny and Erica getting along, so I walked over to them with a huge smile on my face.
"Hey, guys!" Benny waved, a confused expression on his face. Erica just stared, looking a little skeptic. "What?"
"Why are you so cheery? You're usually only this happy with Ethan-" I blushed, "-or you're stressed and mad." I shrugged.
"Nothing deadly has happened in a while. Anyway, I noticed you two getting along..." I grinned again. Erica stared at me blankly.
"And?" She deadpanned. I rolled my eyes and grabbed Benny's elbow.
"He's supposed to be trying and failing to get a date with you-"
"Hey!"
"-and you are supposed to be harshly refusing him and calling him a dork." She put a hand on her hip.
"Well, we talked, and we have things in common." Erica said, flipping her hair. I coughed on my own spit.
"Ok, then..." I said eyes wide.
"Hey, twin, I'm going to wait for Rory at his house!" Bailey shouted at Benny as she ran from the kitchen the the front door. "Telly Grandma where I went if I don't meet up with you."
Erica's POV
"Hey, are you okay?" I said to Benny. He looked a little off. His face was turning a pink-ish color and his eyes were unfocused and didn't have that mischievous glint. It was really sudden. He swayed a little, but I grabbed his hand and wrapped his arm around my shoulder. He leaned on me, a silent thank you.
"I-I kinda feel like a truck ran over me while I was in the middle of a marathon." Ouch. Sarah winced sympathetically.
"Woah, dude. Want us to take you home?" Ethan said, walking over. He just nodded. "Wow, he must be really sick. He would usually complain endlessly," He joked, and Benny offered a weak smile. Now we were all really concerned.
(At Benny's Grandma's Door)
I knocked, turning behind me to look at Ethan and Sarah, who were behind me, talking about, and accasionally glancing at, Benny.
"Yes?" She took one look at him, still leaning on me, and ushered us inside.
"What's wrong with him?" I said automatically. Then I was surprised to notice Rory with the other twin, who also appeared to be sick. "And her, too."
Bailey's POV
Ugh... What's going on... My head feels like a brick and I'm so cold...
"Bails? You up?" Huh? Rory? Now I remember. I went over to his house to hang out with him after he got bac from lunch with his parents. He showed me some of his video games for a little while, then he said that I looked sick. I guess I fainted, cause the rest is a blank. I hope Benny's okay. I blinked open my eyes.
"Hey," I smiled tiredly, my eyes sagging. "... Did I... pass out? Or maybe I was just being dillusional?" He grinned.
"Yep! I mean, you're not dillusional. Your grandma says everythings all right in your noggin," He said cheerily, poking my forehead.
"Is Benny here?" I said, grabbing his hand.
"Erica brought him in. He looked like he had the same thing you do. Is that a twin thing? Anyway, Ethan and Sarah went to go get some ingredients for you grandma."
"Magic ingredients?" I said suspiciously. "I thought this was a normal sickness." He shrugged, playing with my fingers. "Ok. I wanna get up and go to Benny's room." He jumped up.
"Wait, you're not supposed to get up!" I glared at him untill he rolled his eyes. "I'll carry you." I grinned widely, reaching my arms out. He picked me up swiftly and was smart enough to take my blanket and not to use vampire speed to get me across the hall. "Knock knock." He said. Erica was walking around the room, examining Benny's stuff. My twin was on his bed looking like he was trying really hard not to sleep. His eyes were glassy and his skin looked like it would burn at the touch. I mean, I wasn't the picture of health at the moment, but he had it bad. At our arrival, he turned his head, groaned and winced.
"Hey, Rory. Bailey." I frowned, concerened.
"It hurts for you to move? Yeesh. Looks like you got the worst half of the symtoms, Twin." I sneezed, and a nearby book lifted and fell. Rory's eyes widened.
"Don't speak to soon, Sis. I got the fever part, you got the chills and the cold part." That made sense.
"Put me next to him, Ror?" I said sweeetly. Erica turned around, putting back a suspicious looking bottle of orange liquid.
"Erica, would you be kind enough to move your twin?" Rory said. Erica glared and hissed but moved towards the bed. I noticed how gently she picked him up and shifted him so it wouldn't hurt him with how sore he was. Rory put me down, smirking.
"Not my dork," she muttered, but she sighed tiredly, rolling her eyes and putting a hand on his forehead. "Ow!" She said, waving her hand, which was acually smoking.
"My theory was right! We have a magic virus!" I exclaimed. Benny groaned.
"Ugggghhh. Can we ever catch a break?"
"I'm afraid not, dear," Grandma said. "And yes, Bailey, it is a supernatural sickness. It's commonly called a dizzy spell because us spellcasters can get it all the time or never at all."
"Ohhhhh, I get it, dizzy spell, ha!" Benny and I said in unison, laughing.
"So, how long till they're back to normal?" Erica said, rolling her eyes and looking back and forth from Benny's flace and her slightly smoking hand. Grandma grimaced.
"You can never be too sure. Bailey here looks like she'll be fine in a few days, and Benny... Give it a week or two." Erica's eyes widened.
"Really? Wow," Erica actually look concerned. "Any other symptoms or side affects or whatever?" Grandma gave her a knowing smile.
"We tend to levitate, implode, and items." Rory took a step away from me but I pulled him closer and smacked his head.
"Like how I levitated a book when I sneezed." I concluded. She nodded. "What about Benny?" She squinted.
"We'll have to test him somehow."
"How are you going to test me?" Benny said wearily. Erica stared at him for a while.
"I think I have an idea... Is this contagious in any way shape or form?" Erica said seriously, and we all gave her weird looks.
"Um, no?" She said it as more of a question, but Erica nodded. The she walked over to benny, leaned over and kissed him right on the lips! The window shattered outwardly, sending glass flying out of what was now a gaping hole.
"I figured it out. Your welcome."
