Hey guys sorry for the wait. It wasn't as long as some of my other ones though. Hope you enjoy this chapter!

Cory finally got to Chris' trailer with Chris in his arms safely. He laid Chris down on his bed and called Darren on his cell phone to ask if he could come and watch Chris.
"Hey Darren, it's me Cory. Listen; can you please do me a favor if you're not busy?"
"Oh hey Cory, yeah I'm not busy. What's up?"
"Ok well Chris is really sick. We think it's a stomach virus or something, and we need someone to look after him while we're filming our scenes. I'm in his trailer right now and he's here resting. I have a scene to film in about forty five minutes though. Do you think you could come over, let's say in about ten minutes?"
"Oh yeah, sure. You said you were in Chris' trailer right?"
"Yeah, you know where our trailers are right?"
"Yeah, of course. Ok so I just have to change really quickly and I'll be over there as soon as I can."
"Ok I'll be here waiting. Thanks so much Darren!"
"Yeah, no problem!"
With that, Cory hung up his cell phone and went to go check on Chris. His eyes were open with both of his hands on top of his tummy, and he looked tired.
"Hey you feeling a little bit better? How come you're not sleeping?"
"I've been sleeping all day. And I can't say I'm entirely better. My head hurts and I still have this nauseous feeling in the pit of my stomach. God I hate being sick. It's the worst feeling ever! I just want it to all go away," Chris said as he shivered.
"Yeah I know what you mean," Cory said as he quickly brought Chris a blanket to cover him up. They both sat in silence while Cory rubbed Chris' shoulder as he tried to get him to sleep. Five minutes later Cory spoke up.
"Darren's coming. I called him earlier so he should be here soon,"
"Does that mean you're gonna have to leave?"
"Yeah. I have some scenes to shoot with the rest of the cast. Darren didn't get called in today though. I'm surprised his not busy. I'm sorry though. I promise I'll come and visit when I have breaks."
"Thanks," Chris smiled. "And thank you so much for taking care of me. I really appreciate it."
"No problem Chris. That's what friends are for," Cory smiled back and petted Chris' head.
At that moment there was a knock on the door. Cory sat up from Chris' bed and rushed off to get it.
He opened the door and there was Darren, standing right outside Chris' trailer with a simple tee and a pair of jeans.
"Hey!" Cory said. "Come in and thanks so much for coming."
"Hey it's no big deal. I was just really worried about Chris. How is he by the way?"
"Eh, he's hanging in there. He's been sleeping most of the day. I think the highest his fever has ever reached was like 102 point something and he's been puking a lot too; about three or four times today. But mostly he's just really weak and tired.
"Ahh ,poor guy. Sounds like a bad case of the flu," Darren said glumly.
"Yeah, that's what we think it is."
"Any idea how he got it?"
"I'm not sure. I don't think anyone on set is sick….. He probably got it from all the stress he's been dealing with and then maybe it got worse and turned into a bug?"
Darren shrugged. "Possibly…."
"Oh yeah, before I go I just wanted to let you know that he's been recently complaining of a headache and he still feels kind of nauseous. He hasn't eaten anything since this morning so I would try to give him something to eat. Maybe that's the cause of his headache and dizziness. Even if he tells you that he's not hungry or that he doesn't want to eat you have to try, even if it means force feeding him just a little. Also make sure to give him fluids but by any means don't let him chug them. I learned that the hard way….."
"Ok…." Darren looked at him weird.
"Um, it's a long story. I'll tell you later. I gotta run though. Bye and thanks! Call me or text me if you need anything," Cory said as he ran outside of the trailer.
"Bye," Darren waved back as he then shut the door and prepared to look after his really good friend Chris Colfer.
Sorry this was kind of short. I promise to make the next chapter longer!
