AN: Hey guys sorry for the long wait I have been going through somethings and have started to go to counselling. Anyway here is the next part of the story hope you all enjoy.
It was a few days after Adam and Nicole turned up to Erin and Jay's apartment. I was startled awake by my stomach churning and I quickly got out of the bed that I was sharing with Erin of course trying not to wake her up and I ran into the bathroom. As soon as I reached the toilet, I ended up empty my stomach. When I felt that I had thrown up enough I sat back on shaky legs resting myself up against the bath. I went to stand up but felt myself feel more sick and then I was over the toilet once again.
I heard someone behind me but I couldn't quite turn around I know it was Erin though since we were in her en-suite and she was rubbing my back in circles. Once again I empty my stomach. We were in the bathroom for half an hour when I felt myself feeling a bit better.
As soon as I finished Erin helped me back to my feet I nearly fell to the floor but she caught me and picked me up in a bridal style and carried me back into the bedroom and laid me on the bed. As soon as she got me tucked back into the bed, she left the room that was when I noticed it was still dark outside. Erin came back in five minutes later carrying a waste bin.
"How are you feeling?" Erin asked me. All I could do was let out a groan. "Try to get some more sleep," she told me and I felt my eyes shut.
The next time I woke up, I saw that it was light outside. Erin wasn't in the bedroom, but I had to quickly sit up and once again empty my stomach. I hate being ill. Erin must have heard me because in under a second she was in the room once again rubbing circles on my back. When I dry heaved, I laid back down onto the bed.
"Thanks," I mumbled. "You hungry? It's nearly lunchtime," she told me.
"Aren't you supposed to be at work?" I asked her.
"I called Hank and told him you weren't well he said I could have the day off to look after you and he was letting Trudy know," Erin replied.
"Oh, ok," I replied.
"So what do you want for lunch? I can make you some soup," she said. At that, I nodded my head. "Ok, I'll be back in a bit," she said and then left the room after kissing me on my head. When she left, I felt myself drift back of to sleep.
I was woken up by Erin once again. "Come on, Kim, you need to eat," she told me.
"Headache," I mumbled.
"I can give you some ibuprofen as soon as you've eaten something and then later if you keep all of it down I can draw you a bath," she told me. I went to sit up but my muscles were killing me so Erin had to help me sit up. I felt like a little kid as she fed me. I have always been like this when I'm ill. Normally when I'm sick, however, I'm on my own and refuse to eat and drink anything and all I do is just sleep. As soon as she fed me the last of the soup she once again kissed me on the forehead. "Do you want some tea?" she asked me and I nodded my head and then she went back out of the bedroom, coming back with two mugs. She placed mine on the bedside table at the side of me and then placed hers on the side table on her side. She then climbed into the bed with me and switched on the TV. She chose to put on Netflix and we watched Orange is the New Black. As we were watching it I laid my head onto her chest and her hands started to thread through my hair. I felt myself falling asleep once again.
The third time I woke up was when Jay and Hailey came back home. The two came into the room to see how I was and as soon as they left the room Erin looked at me. She smiled at me. "How are you feeling?" she asked me.
"Better," I replied.
"Good. Now you have a choice you can either stay in here with me and we can keep watching Netflix or we can go and give Jay and Hailey some company," she told me.
"I want to go and give Jay and Hailey company," I replied.
"Ok then," she replied. Erin then got up off the bed and then helped me up and helped me walk into the living room.
When we walked in Erin walked back into the bedroom after helping me sit on the sofa and brought in the waste bin. She placed it onto the floor at the side of me and I brought my legs up onto the sofa and Erin sat at the side of me, wrapping her arm around me on the back of the sofa. We all watched a movie. Through the movie I ended up laying on the sofa and Erin ended up laying behind me wrapping her hand around my waist. I was about to drift off once again when I heard my phone go off. Telling me I had a new text. I picked it up from the floor where I had put it last night when we got in from work. I opened the text and saw it was from Adam.
From: Ruzek
Hey Kim I heard you were unwell. I was hoping you'd come and meet me tonight we need to talk.
I felt myself groan. If the guy knows I'm unwell, then why does he want me to go and meet him. "Everything ok?" Erin asked me as her hand rubbed against my stomach.
"Yeah, Adam's just being complicated," I replied.
"What's he said now?" she asked me, so I showed her the text he sent. "Is he an idiot?" she asked me.
"I don't know," I replied.
"You hungry?" Erin asked me and I shook my head. I don't want her getting up when I'm comfy laid like this. "You don't want me to move, do you?" she asked me and I shook my head once again. I then diverted my attention back to the TV and continued watching the movie once more.
As we were watching this time I ended up falling asleep in Erin's arms.
