Chapter 10: Sick

Life was back to was gone and I had my room to myself again. I lay in my bed. It was late almost 10:45 and I had just woken up. How could I sleep that late? I sat up and my stomach hurt really badly. I felt like I was gunna throw up. I screamed for my mom to come upstairs.

"Good morning. Is everything alright?"

"I feel like I'm going to throw up."

"Well let's get you to the bathroom." We went to the bathroom and I wretched on the floor for a while until it finally came out. It burned my throat and made my breath a putrid scent. But my stomach felt better, so a brushed my teeth to get the taste out.

"How do you feel now?"

"My stomach is better, but my head hurts and I feel gross and tired." I changed into a giant t-shirt and pajama pants. She felt my forehead. And shook her head before leading me downstairs to lie on the couch. She gave me a cup of tea and some saltines.

"I'm going to call Carlisle and tell him to check you out. It's a shame. We were going to go over there later today. That will have to wait. And I'm telling Jake to come home from work early." I groaned in response and reached for the remote. The only thing that was on was Nick Jr. At least it wouldn't make me feel worse when I watched it.

"Hey Eliza. How are you feeling?" I rubbed my eyes and groaned. Carlisle stuck a thermometer in my mouth. I immediately read 102.1. Great. He checked other stuff but I didn't pay much attention. Then he made me drink some nasty bubblegum flavored medicine.

"Make sure to drink a lot. You should also try to take a nap. I hope you feel better." He kissed my burning forehead gently and walked out the door just as Jake walked in. Then, I slept.

Someone hot was holding my hand. I was only half awake, but I could hear what was going on around me.

"Feel better, Eliza." He said. Seth. My eyes fluttered open and I smiled at him. He smiled back and squeezed my hand.

"How are you feeling?"

"Okay I guess."

"Well I have something that will make you feel better." He went into the kitchen and came back with a bag in his hand. It said Tiffany & Co. I gasped. Why did he buy me expensive jewelry? I just had the stomach flu and I wasn't going to die. He handed me the bag and I reached in and pull out a little box.

"What is it?"

"Open it!" Inside was a silver necklace with a key on the end. The top was heart shaped. I was overwhelmed over how beautiful it was.

"It's the key to my heart." He said quietly. That was so thoughtful!

"I love it so much! It's perfect! Thank you!" We embraced and he helped me put it on.

"I'll wear it all the time! What made you go to Tiffany's?"

"Leah said girls like their stuff. I actually picked this out myself." I hugged him again. Jake walked in.

"Great pick, Seth. Eliza do you want anything?"

"A baked potato."

"Ok I'll go make it. Here are some get well soon cards that Carlisle brought." He handed them to me. I opened the first envelope. The front said, "Get well wishes" and on the inside it said, "We hope you feel better! We send all our love, Edward and Bella"

"That was sweet."

"Hmmm." Seth reached for the card as I started reading the next one. It said, "You're too nice to be sick! Love, Alice and Jasper" It was cute I handed it to Seth and opened the next envelope. Most of them were boring until I got to Emmet's. It said "Nothing fancy, nothing witty, sorry you've been feeling… a little under the weather." I was laughing even harder when I got to the next part, "P.S. I'm glad you have finally seen Seth's face!" I was dying!

"Let me see that!" Seth was laughing until he got to the last part. "I'll get him for that." That's just when Jake brought in my baked potato and Nessie followed him. I dug in savoring how buttery it was.

"We are going to reschedule going over to Carlisle's for Saturday, Ok?" I nodded in response, my mouth still full of potato.

"I really should be going. I will see you on Friday at Sam and Emily's for lunch." Oh yeah. We were going to Emily's on Friday. Seth hugged me and I thanked him again for the necklace. He walked out the door.

"Are you already thinking about what to wear? Because it's going to be chilly."

"Can I wear that purple sweater? You know the one with the short sleeves and the cool buttons that are like off center? I could wear it with black skinny jeans and my gray Minnetonkas."

"I am not listening to this." I laughed as Jake walked out of the room. He only cares what Nessie wears. I guess you can't like clothes and cars. I could be wrong though. But Nessie seemed to like the idea of the outfit so that was good.

It was almost 8 o'clock at night. Had I really slept that long? I went up to my room and spent a while on facebook. I was feeling daring so I changed my relationship status to "In a Relationship". I wondered what people would say as I drifted off into a deep sleep.

Eliza's Dream

I was in the middle of a desert wearing a heavy winter coat and fuzzy sweat pants. The heat was unbearable! I started pulling off my jacket and pants, but underneath were more layers. There were endless layers and I continued to feel hot. Then Seth came riding on a camel. He picked me up and held me close. I expected to feel hotter, but instead the extra layers fell away and I was wearing a tank top and shorts. I felt cool again and I felt rejuvenated.
