Ch 19
Waking up, Raven felt there was something wrong as she looked over to Gar's side of the bed. He looked like he was sleeping peacefully, and she could hear him breathing but it was heavier then it should be. She decided to wake him up.
"Gar," she said as she shook him. There was no response, so she shook him harder. "Garfield!" she yelled as he opened his eyes.
"I—I don't feel so good Rae," he said weakly.
"You're warm," said Raven as she felt his head. "You have a fever."
"H—how did that happen?"
"It was your first time traveling through dimensions for a long period of time. If you're not use to it, it's possible to get sick. Do you feel dizzy, weak, and nauseous?"
"Come to think of it, yeah," he said as he closed his eyes. "I'm kind of exhausted to."
"This is all natural Garfield, but I'm sorry I should have warned you. You'll be all right but just to make sure I'll stay and take care of you."
"What about—?"
"They're not going anywhere Gar. When you're healthy, we'll talk to them."
"Well now I'm sorry."
Raven smiled. "You couldn't have known," she said as she got up from the bed. "I'll get dressed, order room service, and we'll go from there. Get some sleep Gar."
"You're the best Rae. I love you."
"Love you to Gar."
After Raven fed her boyfriend the best she could with room service, she helped him drink plenty of fluids and then lied him back down on the bed. She had gotten him medication to bring the fever down and then let him sleep.
Raven meditated by the window of their hotel room when she heard Gar struggling. Dropping from her position, she towards the bed to see Gar trying to get up from bed. "What are doing?"
"Uh um," he blushed. "I have to go to the bathroom."
Raven blushed. "Oh," she said. "Well I guess I can levitate you to the bathroom.
"I'll take care of the rest Rae."
Once he was resting comfortably back in bed, she kissed him on the forehead and got back to her meditation. While she was deep into it, she felt someone trying to get through. 'Who's there?'
'Raven, it's me Linda,' said the doctor's wife. 'Tomorrow lets me, just you and me."
