Chapter 29
Aia's Fever
A/N: yawn I'm too sleepy to write anything for the author's note so just read the story.
As the sun rose the next morning Aia awoke. She looked around the room. Max was lying on her, keeping her warm. She smiled and then her stomach grumbled. Shifting slightly, she was able to go and get something to eat. Aia slowly got up and left Max to sleep.
"Mmm," came a low moan from him. She gently kissed his cheek then left to go and get some breakfast. Kai and Kiara were making their way to their room. Kai glared at Kiara for following him everywhere then turned just in time to catch Aia.
"What the?" Kai asked holding up Aia who still happened to be dizzy. Kiara all but grabbed her and brought her to the kitchen.
"You shouldn't be up," sighed Kiara as she put some bread in the toaster.
"I know but I didn't want to wake up M…" but Aia couldn't finish because just then there was a loud yell coming from her room. Max dashed out the door and rammed head first into Kai. They both toppled to the ground with Max on top of Kai.
"Have you seen Aia?!" he yelled holding Kai by his shirt and sitting on top of him in an awkward position. His face wasn't even a foot away from Kai's.
"Um…Max…over here?" said Aia waving from the kitchen.
"Oh," he said.
"Do you mind?" said Kai quite irratated.
"Oops, sorry. I'm going back to bed," yawned Max going into his room.
"He's…a little over protective," sighed Aia.
"I see," said Kai getting up and brushing himself off. Kiara gave Aia her toast. When she was finished, Aia got up a little too quickly. Dizziness overcame and she collapsed on Kai, who had just made his way back from getting changed. He let out a low growl of annoyance and (being the kind-hearted person that he is…) carried Aia to her room and put her on the bed beside Max.
"Thanks Kai," replied Aia, holding her head. Kai merely grunted and walked off. Aia then flopped onto the bed, exhausted. Max woke up feeling something on his back and smiled at the figure beside him. Careful not to wake up Aia, he got up and started to change. (Mind you in the room.) Aia slowly opened her eyes at the rustle of movement and saw Max putting on his shirt. (don't worry, his pants are on too.)
"So how are you feeling?" he asked, noticing her glance.
"Better," said Aia, taking a deep breath. Max put a hand on her forehead, then gently kissed it.
"Your fever's almost gone," he replied. They heard some noise at the end of the hall indicating Rei and Krys had woken up. Then, there was knock on the door.
"Come in," Aia said. The opened, it was Krys.
"How are you feeling?" she asked.
"Fever's down but a little dizzy," said Aia.
"Here," said Krys handing Aia a pill case and a glass of water, "take one, it'll help." With that, Krys left for breakfast. Aia took a pill and soon found put that it was sugar coated (Advil, in case you were wondering).
In the kitchen Tyson was begging Krys to make him some breakfast. He looked like a starving puppy, not a cute puppy though.
"Please! Please! Please!" he whined.
"Leave me alone already!" yelled Krys taking out a frying pan. Tyson got on his hands and knees. "Go eat some cereal!" yelled Krys again.
"I want to have whatever you're having!" whined Tyson some more.
"I'm having fish eyes and frog legs," she said sarcastically.
"Please!" begged Tyson. Krys sighed, mummered something along the lines of 'your problem not mine' and threw him a piece of french toast. Tyson, being the idiot that he is caught the toast with his mouth and not his hands. Therefore, he collided head firstv into the wall.
"Owww," came a muffled voice. And as usual, Hilary came into the room.
"Okay. Who did that?!" she yelled, helping Tyson onto a chair and getting him some kleenex. Yes, Krys managed to make Tyson's nose bleed of his own free will (Krys: And proud of it! -). Answering Hilary's question, he pointed at Krys who showed no signs of guilt.
"What? He had it coming," she replied in a very convincing and innocent tone.
"Bitch!" yelled Hilary to Krys. Krys's eyes narrowed, she walked toward Hilary and well, basically slapped her. (A/N&Kiara: Justice is served!).
"I'm not one to enjoy name-calling. Call me anything of the sort again and I garauntee you'll regret it," replied Krys in a low voice, the tone icy cold. Hilary glared at Krys with contempt but decided it would be better to head back to her room.
"What's for breakfast?" max asked walking into the room.
"French toast," Krys stated, making the rest of breakfast. Aia and Max sat down. Aia noticed Kiara was smiling from ear to ear and looked at her oddly. Kiara whispered to Aia in a would-be hushed voice.
"It was so cool! She slapped her!" Kiara said, trying to keep her voice down.
"Come again?" Max and Aia asked together.
"Krys slapped Hilary! Aia, we've got a new recruit!" whispred Kiara. Krys obviously hadn't heard or was making a point not to hear. Once breakfast was finishe, evryone headed to their rooms to change.
A/N: Yeah, I think I kinda annoyed Kai back there by falling on him.
Kiara: Ya think?
Krys: I hate Hilary some much!
Kiara: We know!
A/N: Anywho, see ya guys next chapter and please review! And no go stick your head in a toilet! We are not going to make Mariah suicidal!
Krys: Now that's a thought…hehe.
A/N: No! Krys, don't even think about it!
