Now, let's get on with the third chapter you've all been waiting for, shall we?
"Jake! Wake up, wake up, wake up!" Haley yelled, jumping on her big brother's bed.
"Haley…" Jake groaned, not really in the mood.
"But, Jake, there's school today!" Haley said, still jumping on Jake's bed.
Jake didn't answer, but pulled up his covers with all his might and Haley jumped off the bed.
"Okay, I guess you don't mind if I tell mom then." Haley grinned, prancing out of her brother's room.
Jake didn't care, so he fixed his bed and went back to sleep.
"Jake, wake up, school's today." His mom said, a few minutes later, coming inside Jake's room.
"Mo-om, can't I just go to bed all day today?" Jake asked.
"But honey, you can just go to bed after school, right?" His mom asked.
Jake didn't answer again…
"Jake, are you okay?" His mom asked.
"Nooooooo…" Jake finally replied, solemnly.
His mom felt his forehead. It was hot…
"I think you have a fever, Jake." She said. "I'll be right back." She said, running to the bathroom for a thermometer.
"Don't bother…" Jake groaned, trying to go back to sleep.
When his mom came back, she took his temperature.
"Oooh, it's a fever alright." She said. "Honey, I guess you shouldn't go to school today." She suggested.
"Great…" Jake said, going back to sleep again.
"Haley, I'll get you to school now." His mom said.
"Okay." Haley replied, getting her stuff for school. She didn't really pay attention to Jake since she assumed that he was just pretending when he really wasn't.
"And you, Jake, I'll be back in a few minutes. Just stay in bed, okay?" His mom instructed.
"Alright, alright." Jake said, feeling a little upset with the interruption from his sleep.
For the rest of the afternoon, Jake was pretty much in bed, sleeping for the most. Of course, he could normally go to school even if he had a fever, but this time, he couldn't.
It was really strange because he had a high fever in just one day when it would normally take a while to form.
As Jake lied in bed, he felt that maybe there was a reason why he was sick… He thought about the battle with the Huntsclan days before.
'Maybe that's why…' Jake pondered, looking up at the ceiling of his room.
Author's Note: Well, ha! There's the third chapter for all of ya! Another little cliffhanger, should I say? XD So, I'll be typing up the fourth chapter now, later, or soon. For now, adios!
