Chapter 2 'Wait while I hurl'
By thetruemeaningoflove
I closed my eyes and hoped that I would have a great night sleep, as for the last couple of nights I was lucky if I got five hours shut eye.
________________________________________________________________________
It was 6:30am and I had been awake all night and I think that I came down with some think over night. I had tried to have a hot chocolate but as I was making that I started to feel like I was gonna hurl but by the time I had walked into the living room, and the hot chocolate was in the kitchen, I didn't feel as sick.
I pulled the spare quilt from the airing cupboard and snuggled into it and put on the TV. I was waiting I don't know what for, well it might have been for somebody to wake up and talk to me. As I waited I was thinking about what was so important that he had to stay over at his girlfriend's house, but my thoughts were interrupted when I had to make a quick dash for the toilet. The next thing I found myself leaning over the toilet and the contents of my guts spilling out of my mouth.
I felt so dirty, the Bolton's house was clean but after throwing up in the toilet I needed to have a shower.
I turned the shower on and let the hot water run over my body, I washed my hair to make sure I had no sick left in it and wash my body with the dove soap that was laid in the soap dish.
Once I was out and dried I crept back into Troy's room and looked for his old basket ball kit, I put on a wildcats hoddie and wildcats tracksuit bottoms and found and tank top I had left once.
I looked at Josh and to my surprise his eyes were slightly open and looking at me. 'Hey Cutie are you okay?' I said as I walked over to him and moved the hair out of his eyes.
'Gwabby I am fwine but yoo are not vwery well!' he looked at me then hoped out of bed and ran into Seth's room. All of a sudden I found a feeling at the bottom of my stomach and yet again I ran to the toilet and repeated what I did half an hour ago.
As I walked out of the toilet after I had wash my hands and face, and I found Seth, my dad, Alex, Sharpay and Josh. They all looked at me and I let a groan slip out of my mouth and yet again turn around and throw my self over the toilet.
I walked for the third time in half an hour, out of the bath room and the people that where still there before but, Jack and Lucille had joined them. They were just staring at me, they looked worried and sympathetic, I squeezed past them and walked down stairs then plonked myself back on the couch where I had laid for most of the night.
Soon everyone was fussing over me, even Josh who was trying to help by hugging me and getting things that I wanted, aww he is so sweet.
It was 9:30 and they were still fussing and Troy hadn't come home yet. But then Seth said 'Gabby what can I do?' and that was the final string. I had to put up with it for 3 hours. 'LOOK I KNOW YOU WANT TO HELP BUT CAN YOU JUST STOP!' Seth looked at me like I was gonna kill him and that's the way I felt.
After that everyone stopped worrying about me and only came in when I wanted a pain killer or they ran after me when I ran up the stairs but every time they where too late cuz I closed the door before they could even reach the top step.
I was flicking through the channels on TV and as you could imagine there was nothing good on, but I found Sharpay and Alex sitting next to me Sharpay opened her mouth 'how you feeling hun?' I just looked at her and then Alex spoke 'I take it that that was a not very good at all?' I snuggled down into the covers more and they each kissed me on the forehead then walked away.
I was thinking about how sad Sharpay must feel sometimes as she wasn't Troy's sister but his cousin, she lives with her Aunt an Uncle. Her parent died in when she was only a baby so she has lived with the Bolton's her whole life.
Just then I heard a 'Hello?' I got up and ran to the voice I heard and that person quickly picked me up and hugged me
'Brie what's wrong' Troy looked at me in the eyes and his voice sounded really serious
'Could you hold on a sec while I spill my guts?' before I had finished my sentence I started running up stairs to the bathroom. I heard foot steps coming after me and as I flung the door shut behind me, but Troy had stopped it from shutting and was holding my hair while threw up.
10 minutes later I had done and slid down the wall. Troy kneeled in front of me and held my hand, a few tears leaked from my eyes then I really started crying and Troy just hugged me.

After a couple of hours I had carmed down and I just had the hiccups. Troy had already carried me down stairs, it was just me and him sitting in the study. But then a smile appeared on his face. I gave him a confused look and then he started to chuckle.
'You know I really don't get you sometimes' I told him as kissed me on the cheek which he would usually do.
'Brie just to let you know you look really cute in my wildcats training kit' he let off a smile and so did I. 'Wait' my face turned serious 'this is your old training kit!' and yet again he just chuckled.
'Yes they are and I think you should wear them more often' he said with his winning smile and I started giggling.
'Right now on to the more serious issue are you ill or was that a one off or something just please tell me' after he said that I stopped giggling and looked down at the floor. But I soon found my head been lifted up and a pair of dark blue eyes looking at me, from that I could tell troy was worried.
'No I have been sick since about 6:30 this morning and I couldn't sleep then I was sick so I had a shower and changed into your kit then I was sick again and when I walked out my dad and Seth and Alex and Josh and Sharpay were all there then I was sick another time this time when I came out your parents had joined them and have been fussing over me since then until just before you came in' I said that so fast that it took a couple of minutes to register in Troy's brain.
I started crying again and troy was wiping away my tears 'Okay but when did you last sleep and for how long last night' I had to think if I even got any winks last night 'I don't think I did all night' I looked a Troy who by now had already started carrying me back to the lounge.
Troy sat me next to him and just hugged me and started whispering in my ear 'I'm here now and I'm gonna take care of you, so just try and sleep' I nodded and I felt my eyes slowly close and the quilt being wrapped around me more.

I opened my eyes, I saw Troy still holding me but was talking to everyone, everyone was now piled into the front room even Jamie his stupid girlfriend.
Nobody had noticed I was awake yet and so I snuggled into Troy even more, he looked down at me and pulled me in closer then placed a kiss on the top of my head so I kissed him on the cheek.
