I went to see Harry Potter again today. I saw it at midnight on Thursday, but me and my mom always make a habit of going to see the HP films more than once in theaters. My favorite line of the whole movie was:

"Well of course it's all happening inside your head Harry. ...But that doesn't mean it isn't real." Dumbledore. Ahh, great man Dumbledore~

"The number one princess in the world. Realize that, hey, hey. Keeping me waiting is out of the question. Who do you think I am? Somehow I would already like to eat something sweet! Go get it immediately!"

I stared at the wall feelings very strange. I knew I had a cold but I couldn't think or see straight. It was like I was on the outside looking in. I was still thinking like I usually did, but my actions...not so much.

"Luka-chan, I brought you some soup." I heard Niisan say, entering my bedroom with a little white mask on, as to make sure he didn't get sick as well.

"Niiiiiisan!~" I yelled, jumping up to hug him. He quickly dodged me and set the soup down on the nightstand as so it wouldn't spill. My landing hurt. "Ow..." I groaned.

Why did I just do that? It's like I couldn't control my actions... It was strange, and I definitely didn't like the feeling.

"Sorry Luka-chan, but I didn't want the soup to spill." He helped me up and back into bed. He put his hand to my forehead. "You still have a fever...maybe that is whats making you act so strange." His voice was slightly muffled by his mask. I just looked up at him with sparkling eyes. He smiled down at me. "Well I'm going to make a phone call so I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere okay?" I nodded.

Once he left I stood up and ran as fast as I could in a sickened state to the bathroom. I felt my stomach contract and I vomited. Besides the weirdly cheerful way I was acting, I felt seriously sick. It was as if my brain put my body on cruise control and let me ride out and ignore the pain by acting happy, which was something I didn't usually do. I walked at a much slower pace back to my bed and sat down, groaning. I bet to Niisan, I looked bipolar, with me being happy one minuets, sick, then moody the next.

I'm just glad no one was here to see me like this.

I laid back down and pulled the covers over me, suddenly feeling cold when I heard the front door open. "Ahh, welcome." I heard Luki greet them. There was the sound of running feet until they got to my door and paused. Then the door slammed open.

"Luka-chan!" It was Miku. She had that stupid white mask on and a worried expression on her face. "Why didn't you tell me you were sick?"

"Mikuuu-channnn!" I heard myself say. Then, as I did with Niisan earlier, I jumped up reaching for a hug. But unlike Luki she caught me and hugged me tight.

"Wow, I guess that fever is making you even more loving than usual huh?" She asked smiling. I felt relieved. Miku and everyone else was use to seeing my sweet side, so hopefully as long as I didn't get sick again, I wouldn't show any of my real self to them. I was afraid if I did, I would scare her off.

"Miku-chan, did you put your mask on?" I looked up and saw Kaito enter the room followed by my brother.

"Kaitooo-sannn!" I yelled once again, and this time jumped up to him for a hug.

What the hell was I doing? Damn it! I didn't even know Kaito-san that well! But in mid-jump my stomach lurched again. I quickly changed my course of direction from Kaito to the bathroom. I heaved and I could hear Miku grimacing from all the way in there. I didn't want her to see me like this! I didn't want any of them to see me like this. I looked week and vulnerable, and that's something I didn't want to be seen as.

I heard the front door open once more and someone else walk into my room, but I was to busy throwing up my insides to look, or to care. A few moments later I felt someone enter the bathroom, and bend down next to me.

'Go away!' I thought, but I still didn't look up. Just down into the contents of the toilet. The sight of vomit made me throw up again, and I felt whoever it was beside me lift up my hair and hold it out of the way of my spewing. I was so grateful. It was probably Miku-chan. No matter how much I say she is annoying or stupid she really is a sweet friend.

...Listen at me! That damn fever is even getting into my sane mind! Finally the vomiting ceased and once my breathing had returned to normal I had a chance to look up and see who was helping me.

Once more, it wasn't who I was expecting it to be.

"Gakupo...?" I asked, more a question than a statement. He didn't make a silly face, or poke fun at me like usual. His expression was serious, and I felt a little intimidated. He reached up with a cloth and wiped my mouth clean like a mother would do their child after it had just finished eating. I tried to smack his hand away but all of my strength was totally drained.

I felt him pick me up and start to carry me back to my bed. I noticed that he didn't wear a mask like the others. "You...'ll get ...sick..." I moaned out.

"I don't care." Came his stubborn reply. I wanted to slap him but I couldn't and I just let him carry me, soon drifting off into sleep.

I felt my eyes slowly flutter open. My surroundings were blurry and I felt like I was outside watching myself again. It was a strange feeling.

Soon everything came into focus, and no one was in my room, except one...Gakupo.

"Gakupo-kunn~" I heard myself squeal, but unlike so many times before I didn't jump up to hug him. I didn't need to because he was sitting right beside my bed on the floor. I looked up at him until our faces were only inches apart then smiled. He smiled back at me gently.

"How are you feeling?" He asked, looking concerned and a little sad.

"I feel all woozy!" I said moving my head in a circular motion to put on emphasis.

I felt my inner self face palm. This is very embarrassing! Gakupo knows how I really act... stupid eggplant.

He looked at me with a confused look for a moment, then suddenly smiled. "Ahh, that fevers got you talking huh?" He asked, his smile turning into a smirk.

Uh-oh.

"Whatcha mean?" I asked, looking at him innocently.

He shook his head but continued to smirk. "I've got a present for you Luka-chan, but I can't give it to you if you're sick. So get better soon." he mumbled.

I laid back down on my bed and put my hands up in the air. Then I waved them around crazily. "Look Gakupo-kun! They look so funny!" I looked over to see him smiling at me.

He was being really quiet for some reason and it was rather strange, because that wasn't normal for him. It was beginning to make me worry. Suddenly he rose.

"Luka-chan, I think I'll leave you to rest he said starting to rise." I felt something in me stop. I reached out and latched onto his hand before he completely walked away.

For some reason my eyes starting tearing up. "No! No! You can't leave me! You can't!"

What's going on? Why was I acting so emotional? He was looking down at me, eyes widened in shock. I felt a few tears fall over. What? Why in the hell was I crying over this stupid eggplant?

"Gakupo-kun! I...I li-" My stomach heaved and I turned my head towards the nearby blue trashcan, almost not making it. I heard him bend down and pat gently at my back. It made me feel a little bit better knowing he was here to take care and watch over me.

What? Damn it! Talking out of my head again.

Once I was finished I laid back on my bed and stared at the ceiling. Then I looked over at Gakupo. "Okay..." He said softly. I'll stay with you until you get better."

After a while, I started to feel better. I did throw up a few more times, but Gakupo was there to help me through it. I asked him to talk and he did while I just mostly listened. He told me that Miku and Kaito had to leave to meet Neru and Leon, but they hoped I got well soon. He also told me how we had a new school nurse that everybody was fawning over.

"I...bet you flirted with her...like you do...all those other...girls." I said, sleepily, smiling to myself.

He shook his head. "I couldn't. I was to busy worrying about why you weren't at school." With as red as my face was from my fever, I bet it went even redder.

Gakupo explained to me that once school was over, Niisan called Miku to let her know why I wasn't there and Miku called him. He said that he would have been over sooner, but his parents were hounding him on a family issue.

"I've never seen your parents before...what...are they like?" I asked, genuinely curious.

His expression turned hard but his voice did not. "They're horrible."

After that I didn't say anything more, and faked being asleep.

Around 21:00 I started to feel loads better. I told Gakupo he could go home now, but he seemed a bit unsure.

"Do you promise you're okay?" He asked.

"Yes you stupid eggplant! Now go home so I can take a shower!" I said, wanting to throw something at him.

He gave out a loud chuckle. "Now I know your feeling better. That's good, you had me worried." He patted me on the head as if I was a little kid. Instead of wanting to hit him, I just stood there, fists bawled, and my face totally red. "See you tomorrow~" He said leaving.

And when he left, it was hard to admit, but I felt a little...lonely.

Okay, I finally got around to editing it, but I still feel that maybe they're might be a few things that I missed. Please let me know if you find anything. Man, this is what you get when you don't plan you chapters. This one sounds just weird with a little fluff thrown in to divert your attention. Plus it's short. I promise that the next chapter will be planned and a lot longer. Plus I need to start the actual plot. Mostly these chapters have all been beginning filler and I need the real story to come into place. So look forward to it!
