Chapter fifteen: Silly Goose
The nurse came out from the small, closed off portion that she kept open for any critical happenings. She wiped her hands the small of her nurse uniform and grumbled about children not being more like her when she was young. But how long ago was that?
Beatrice, whom been pacing back and forth, nearly attack the nurse.
"How is she?" attacking the nurse with question after question, "what was wrong? Was it stress?" The nurse asked calmly that Beatrice settle down. Slowly, Beatrice listened to the nurse.
She took a deep breath before explaining to Beatrice what had happened to Juliet.
"She fainted from fatigue. Have you noticed anything, like if she was eating normally or abnormally?" the nurse sighed, she hated this job.
"I don't usually eat with her… uh she either eats with her boyfriend Trent Northwick or her friends Peter Kowalski and Jimmy Hopkins." The nurse stared at the girl that stood before her.
"Jimmy Hopkins?" Beatrice nodded her head, "that young lady is friends with Jimmy Hopkins?" Beatrice, again, nodded.
"Yes, how is that of importance?" Beatrice asked, looking at the nurse skeptically.
"Just wondering." Beatrice glared at the older nurse. Like it was any of her business who Juliet was friends with.
"Can you tell how long she hasn't been eating?" Beatrice asked as kindly as she could. The nurse grumbled something under her breath and took Juliet's charts from the counter next to her, She flipped the sheets of paper over each other and came along a note she made.
"Possibly a week or two. She even has some symptoms of anorexia; not eating and all. You even said yourself she has been more distance and keeps a lot to herself?" Beatrice nodded silently; could it be possible her friend had an eating disorder? The nursed smiled to her.
"Well, what are you still doing here?" Beatrice looked at the nurse's nametag; her name was Katherine Hatchet.
"Thanks Ms. Hatchet." Beatrice mumbled and went off to the 'closed off' part of the infirmary.

Jimmy sat on the edge of his bed, Christy Martin in his hands. God she was so good!—at kissing. Jimmy pushed her down on the bed, but growled in frustration. He couldn't get Juliet out of his head! No matter how hard he tried she always seemed to come into his mind. Suddenly, Petey busted in panting. Jimmy looked at him oddly.
"Just finished masturbating?" Jimmy asked cruelly. Petey shook it off and held his knees.
"Juliet—faint—infirmary—now." Jimmy could only make out selected words, but got up to go to his friend—Petey running, slowly, behind.
Jimmy got there in a matter of seconds. Of course, his breath was sort of ragged, but not more than Petey, who was at the bridge of an asthma attack. Jimmy saw Beatrice, she was pacing like she did when she was nervous.
"How is she?" Beatrice looked up from the floor she took comfort in. Before he knew it, Beatrice was in his arms; sobbing. Jimmy comforted by the only way he knew; patting her back.
"I was taking her—to the infirmary—and she fainted—in my arms." Jimmy nodded and patted her back all the same. It probably frightened her.
"The nurse thinks Juliet has anorexia…" Jimmy looked at her strangely.
"That's odd whenever she was 'round she made up an excuse to go eat." Beatrice only shook her head.
"The results show she hasn't been eating for a whole week or more!" Beatrice said rather loudly; Juliet startled in her deep sleep. Jimmy thought for a minute; she'd been seeing Trent for almost two weeks (tomorrow) could this do with him?
"It's okay Beatrice, everything will be okay." He said soothingly as he rubbed her back while he wasn't sure anymore.
Juliet woke only a couple hours later, complaining of a head ache and stomach pains. Soon, the nurse was in there stuffing crackers and making her swallow water. The stomach pains eventually went away, but the head ache still remand.
"Ms. Hatchet?" Juliet called out, her voice slightly hoarse.
"Yes?" the brunette beauty pranced in the room.
"Are my friends here?"
"Yes should I send them in?" Juliet smiled widely.
"Yes please." She said, patting her blanket that Katherine laid over her shivering body.
"Right away." In only a mere minute, Beatrice landed on top of her sobbing.
"Oh god! I was so worried! I was afraid something bad happened!" she yelled, wrapping her arms around Juliet's neck.
"It's okay Beatrice, I'm alright now." Soon Jimmy followed in, hugged her after Beatrice stopped balling. Juliet smiled lightly and hugged back. And she whispered to him:
"I missed you, silly."
