Hi Guys! I want to give a big thanks to all of my readers. Thank you guys so much for all of your support, I really do appreciate it J Thanks for reviewing, following and even favoriting I honestly didn't expect that at all and it really does mean a lot. I hope to continue writing b/c I have got a whole bunch of ideas the only thing I lack is time, but luckily for me this story had been completed for two weeks but I didn't have the time to type it cause… guess what I just landed my first job. I've never worked before especially not while in school and it is quite an experience and can be a bit overwhelming but hopefully I'll get a better balance of things.

But know I'm rambling so enough about that, lets get to the story,

We've seen chaos, destruction, flooding, vomit and a whole bunch of stuff, let see how it all concludes in the final chapter of "Nurse Jazmine"


Part 3

All I could see was darkness. I'm not sure what happened nor do I know where I am but I could hear some faint humming. Suddenly I felt something cold and wet on my forehead. Alerted, I quickly opened my eyes and immediately sat up. Just then I felt something wet on my knee, it was a wet towel. I looked around and saw that I was back in the living room and I was laying on the couch. I looked to my right and saw Jazmine who was on her knees staring at me with a somewhat surprised expression on her face.

"Jazmine?" I finally said

"Oh I'm sorry Huey, I didn't mean to wake you, I was just changing your compress" She grabbed the towel from my knee and started soaking it in a small bowl that was on the coffee table

"Oh" I said blankly as I laid back down "So, what happened?"

"You passed out from your fever, which was really high because you were really hot when I felt your forehead so I brought you in here and put you on the couch then I started putting the cold compress"

"Wait. You carried me in here?" I asked surprised

"Just barely, but I had to I couldn't just leave you on the floor" She replied sweetly as she put the soaked towel on my forehead "I saw this on TV, I thought it could help bring your fever down and don't worry I made sure that I didn't wet the couch or your afro" She said with a comforting smile

I nodded and started to reflect on what she just told me then I stared at her as she fixed the magazines on the coffee table. She definitely changed clothes because she was now wearing a pink t-shirt and white shorts. She must of went home and came back. But wait….. she actually came back even after all that I said to her. Despite everything that's happened today, Jazmine was still smiling and cheery as if nothing had happened and she's still here taking care of me. For some reason the curiosity in me wanted to why?

"Hey Jazmine" I said calmly. She turned to me

"Yeah?"

"Why are you doing this?"

"I told you I saw it on TV and…"

"Not that" I said as I took the towel off and sat up "I mean this, taking care of me. Why are you trying so hard? Why are you still here? I mean I insulted you, yelled at you and even made you cry"

"Yeah, but you do that all the time" She said calmly

"But I also vomited on you"

She tensed up and looked a little green at the reminder

"Jazmine, despite everything that's happened your still happy, your still cheery, your still…you, well for the most part anyway. You hardly whined and complained and you kept trying to do half of the chores that you knew you couldn't, I yelled and even threw up on you and yet you still came back and act as if none of it had happened and your still taking care of me and your still being so nice to me. I kinda wanna know…why?"

At first she looked as if I caught her off guard but then her expression switched to sadness.

"Well….you do hurt my feelings a lot" She finally said in a soft and low voice "But your still my best friend and that's what friends do" She said in an upbeat and louder but still softer voice "Besides, you do nice things for me all the time"

Huh? I was a bit confused "I do?"

"Uh-huh, a whole bunch of times" She said more sweetly "You always let me hold your hand when we watch a scary movie, you let me and my family stay here during the Fried Chicken Flu even though it didn't fit with your plan, you walked me home and kept me company until my parents came home during the thunderstorm last week, your always trying to teach me something new about the world, you're the only one that never tells me to straighten my hair and you're the only one who's willing to tell me the truth. I know mommy, daddy, and everybody sometimes lie to me just to protect me but not you, you always tell it like it is. Now of course sometimes you can be a bit mean but your still the only one willing to tell me the truth. That's why your my best friend, your always helping me and your always there for me. I thought that this could be my way of helping you"

I felt my face soften a bit. I was actually speechless, I really didn't know what to say

"But I guess I messed up at that, since I couldn't do anything right" She said sadly

My face turned back in to my signature scowl

"Yeah your right, you suck at this" I said a bit sternly

Jazmine looked even sadder

"You couldn't make anything, especially something as simple as orange juice, you couldn't do the simplest chores" Jazmine's eyes were becoming teary again

"You destroyed anything you could get your hands on and…" She appeared to brace herself for the worst

"And…yet you still chose to spend your day taking care of me" Her eyes shot up in surprise "And I really appreciate that"

At first she appeared to be a bit disappointed but then she quickly gave a small smile.

"Thanks Huey" She said sweetly. I nodded then laid back down

"Well I better go back and check on the rice, the last thing we need is another fire" She got up then started to make her way to the kitchen

"You made rice?" I asked sounding a bit surprised. She stopped walking and turned to me.

"Uh-huh, white rice to be exact. I wanted to make something that we could both eat. I figured you might still be feeling queasy so I thought white rice was the best thing because I remember researching that it was"

"You actually researched it?"

"Yup" She said cheerfully "It should be done by now, I just wanna turn the stove off so it wont burn" She turns to leave

"Jazmine" She turns back around

"Yes?"

"I'm kinda hungry, could I have some of the rice you made?" She then smiled

"Sure, let me get you a plate"

"No need" I said blankly "I'll just eat it in the dining room" I said as I was getting up from the couch

"Wait…no, your supposed to be getting some rest" She said in a worried tone

"Jazmine, relax I'm fine" I said as I approached her "I'm feeling a lot better" Which was partially true as my dizziness was gone and I didn't feel nauseous at all "I think I can walk 3ft from here" I said sarcastically as I passed her and headed towards the dining room.

I didn't turn around but I had a feeling that Jazmine was smiling and was going to follow me to the dining room just to make sure that I was okay

And I was right

Moments Later…

Jazmine and I were in the dining room eating the rice that she made. As I was eating, I could see through the corner of my eye that Jazmine was nervously staring at me. Each time it seemed that she was about to say something, she would chicken out and would quickly just fill her mouth with rice. It was getting annoying but I let it go. At this point, I was just too tired to do much of anything, even scolding her. I was half way done with the rice when…

"Umm…Huey?" I looked up at her but didn't say anything "Well…what do think?" She asked nervously

"You didn't leave it to boil very long, it's a little hard" I said blankly. She frowned sadly "But its really not bad" She then perked up. I then went back to eating

"Umm…Huey?" She said softly

"Yes Jazmine" I said blankly as I looked up at her

"I really am sorry about everything" She said looking guilty

[Sighs] "Jazmine" I said calmly "Don't worry about it okay, I'm sure we can clean all of this up before Granddad gets home"

"Really?"

"Yes Jazmine, really" I then went back to eating but before I could even put the spoonful of rice in my mouth, Jazmine had run over and nearly tackled to me to the ground with a hug that was cutting off my air supply. I was about to push her off and scold her, but then I decided to let her be. Instead of saying something, I stayed quiet and just started to pat her back.

This seriously was a long day

One week and 3 days later….

Jazmine's POV

After we finished eating, Huey and I managed to fix everything from the laundry room to the kitchen, we even managed to fix the lawn mower. We fixed everything. Well…everything except the toaster. We ended up just throwing it out. Huey said that knowing his grandfather he'll probably just think he lost it or something. But other than that, we fixed everything and brought it to the way it was before just in the nick of time and it's a good thing too because Mr. Freeman was definitely not in the mood when he came back later that night. Apparently, he and Riley had waited for over several hours to get the new dinner box. Once he got it, he ended up getting in to a fight then getting robbed by one of the other customers. Riley also got robbed but unlike Mr. Freeman he managed to eat some of his so he wasn't as hungry as his grandfather was. But that didn't stop him from being mad and angrily mumbling under his breath about not being able to finish his dinner box. I guess they were so wrapped up in what happened, neither one of them suspected or really even cared to know all that's happened in the house which wasn't a bad thing because it saved us from having to deal with another problem. After that day I still went back to the Freeman's to take care of Huey and things definitely got better. Huey was a lot more cooperative this time and he hadn't yelled at me once and….oh alright, I admit Huey was still being his usual self but he seemed to be a lot more patient with me. As for the chores, I still did them but I was a lot better than I was before especially since Huey was helping me every step of the way. He taught me how to make tea, he taught me how to use the lawn mower (which is something I will never do again because it's just too heavy and well….I don't want to get attacked and eaten alive again). After a week, Huey got better and was back to his old self. Well actually I don't think that saying makes much sense here because Huey wasn't really that different from when he was sick to how is usually but still, everything was the way it was supposed to be and everyone was happy.

[AH-CHOO!]

…Well almost everyone

I sneezed again in to a tissue then laid back down feeling more exhausted and drained.

I starting sneezing a couple days ago, then the next morning I woke up feeling awful. Today was day three of feeling awful and I haven't gotten any better. Every part of my body hurt, even my teeth, I couldn't breathe through my nose, I felt hot and cold at the same time and to top it all off the room was spinning. I honestly was half dead. As I was lying on bed, I couldn't help but think about this past week and all that I went through with Huey. I'm really glad that I took care of him but after all that we went through, Huey never once said "thank you". I mean sure he said he appreciated it but it just not the same. I know Huey's not the type to show his feelings and I know that I wasnt the best nurse at first, but I did get better in the end and it's the thought that counts right? I don't regret taking care of Huey, really I don't but I wish he could of just said "thank you" at least once. I just wanted to hear those words once just once, was that too much to ask? Maybe it really didn't matter to Huey that I was there or not, maybe he didn't really didn't care about me or what I did for him or this friendship, maybe I care more about this friendship then he does.

I started to get more and more sad as I started to lose myself in my thoughts.

[Sighs sadly] Maybe Huey really didn't care.

While I was lost in my thoughts my mm then walked in and came over to my bed.

"Hi honey, how are you feeling?" She asked sweetly

"Terrible" I whined in reply. She then felt my forehead

"Well your fever went down a bit so its somewhat of a good sign" I nodded then sniffled as I cuddled Miss Wellington

"Well daddy says hi and that he'll call to check up on you after his meeting" She said as she gently rubbed my head

"Mommy, when's daddy coming home?" I asked sounding very tired as I looked up at her

"Honey I told you, daddy went on an important business trip he'll be back in a few days" I then sighed in disappointed tone. She then sat on the side of my bed and gave me a side hug "Now honey, you know that if your father could be here he would but this is an important business trip so he has to go, you understand?" I nod

"Good and remember he will keep calling you just to make sure your okay, okay?"

I nodded again "Okay" I croaked in response. She then got up but looked a little nervous for some reason

"Speaking of work" She started off sounding a little nervous "Honey my job just called me and said there's some kind of error with some important documents and that its very urgent that I come down to the office immediately"

"Wait, so your just gonna leave me here all by myself?" I whined before coughing

"Of course not sweetie, I would never leave you here by yourself, especially since your sick" She then smiled "Which brings me to my next question, are you up for any visitors?"

"Visitors? Who'd be here to see me?" I asked before sneezing in to my sleeve

"Gesundheit"

That voice, I recognize that voice. I then looked up and was shocked

"Huey?" I said in a surprised tone

"Thanks again Huey for keeping Jazmine company. I really do appreciate it" My mom said happily as Huey approached her

"It's no problem Mrs. Dubois" He answered in his usual blank tone

I just looked down at my hands and was just too embarrassed to look up. My mom then leaned in and hugged me.

"Bye sweetie, I'll be back as soon as I can okay" I nodded without saying a word or looking up. She then smiled then kissed my forehead then made her way to the door "Bye kids, call if you need anything, I'll be back soon" She said cheerfully then she left the room and shut the door behind her. Huey watched my mom as she left and once she did he looked back at me. I still didn't look up, I just couldn't I am so embarrassed, I cant believe Huey is seeing me like this. Not only did I feel terrible I looked terrible, I was a pale and sweaty mess. I could feel my cheeks flush and since they were already red I probably looked like a tomato now, how embarrassing. He then walked up closer to me, panicked I quickly pulled the covers over my head. He just cant see me like this

"Jazmine" He said sounding serious "You can take the covers off your head, I already saw you. Besides its not that big of a deal, nobody looks perfect when their sick" I slowly put down the covers but still kept my eyes down and avoided eye contact

"So….what are you doing here?" I asked nervously as I kept my head down

"Your mom already told you what I'm doing here. I'm here to keep you company while she's at work" he said in a blank but slightly annoyed tone

"But why" I asked as I finally looked up at him. He gave his usual scowl expression but I could tell in his eyes that I might of caught him off guard

"Well your mom told my Granddad that you were sick and then he told me. So I figured I'd come by and see how you were"

"Oh…"I simply said feeling and probably sounding a bit off guard about his answer

"Plus it's the least I can do since its partially my fault that you got sick in the first place"

"Partially?"

"Yes partially. No one told you to coddle me without taking precaution to your health. You could of worn a face mask or at least washed your hands or put disinfectant after you came in contact with me, you know damn well how contagious this virus is" He said in a serious tone

[Sighs] Sure Huey it's all my fault that this happened. I simply just rolled my eyes

"So is there anything you want me to do?" He said calmly. I snapped out of my thoughts

"Huh?" I replied sounding a little confused

"I said is there anything you want me to do?" he said again in the same calm tone

"Umm…" I thought about it for a minute

"Oh I almost forgot" He said calmly. He then turns around and headed for the door. He left for a second then immediately came back to my room holding a big basket with a teddy bear covered in a clear multi-colored polka dot plastic bag tied together with a really pretty purple rime stoned ribbon. I was surprised but a little confused.

"Huey?" I said as he approached my bed

"Here" He said blankly as he put the basket on my lap. I was so hypnotized, it was just so pretty I loved the way it looked and I loved the pretty looking bear that was inside of it. I even noticed that there was a lot more stuff in it.

"Huey…"

"It's a care package" He said cutting me off "I figured you could use something to distract yourself while you were sick in bed" He said in a blank tone

"Huey that's really sweet" I said happily, then I grabbed and hugged the basket "I love it, thank you" He nodded and just seemed like he really didn't care as usual but I didn't care. I was so happy about the care package, I actually didn't notice that he was being his spoil sport self

"So do you feel nauseous?"

"Huh?" I said snapping out of my thoughts

"I said are you feeling nauseous?" I then shook my head

"Well since your not feeling nauseous do you want me to make you anything?"

"Hmm….could you make me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich please?"

"Sure" He then started to make his way to the door. When he made it, he then turned to me "Just call me if you need anything okay?"

"Okay" He then turned to leave "Oh and Huey" He turned back around "Thanks again for the basket" I said smiling

"No problem" He said blankly. He then turned and left the room leaving me alone with the care package.

I just could stop staring at it, it was so pretty. I then started to untie the ribbon and then I took off the plastic that revealed the basket and all of its goodies. As I got a closer look at the bear, I realized that it wasn't just some bear, it was Bubba my sick bear. I knew it was him because I could see my initials that was sown on to his feet when my grandmother gave it to me when I was six and had the chicken pox. It was definitely him but he looked so different. His fur was now this bright and shiny caramel color, his head and his leg were sowed back together, he had two big beautiful brown button eyes and the one big difference is that he now had a beautiful red bow tied around his neck, he look so brand new. I picked him up and hugged him. I then put him next to me the started to look in the basket and saw that it had a lot of stuff. It had two of my favorite movies, it had a bag of chocolates and a bag of jelly beans, it had 5 tubes of glitter, a box of sweet scented markers and it even had a medium size note pad with plenty of blank pages for me to draw in. Huey really does know me well and must of put in a lot of work in to all of this. I looked over at Bubba and started rub his back. As I rubbed him I felt something, so I picked him up and turned him around and found an envelope tied to his back with the red ribbon. I pulled the envelope from behind him and then put him back next to me and then I started to look at the envelope. I opened it and saw that it was a card. It had a beautiful big dark purple flower on it and it had a bit of glitter on it too. I opened the card and it read in big and bold letters

"Thanks Nurse Jazmine -Huey"

I then had a big smile on my face, then I looked over at Bubba who was still shining in the light then I looked back at the card and gave a small happy chuckle

He really does care

[Que the Boondocks ending theme]


Classic caretaker reversal, the perfect ending to a sweet story :) . Well I hope you all enjoyed my little Juey (moment) fanfic. It was really fun to write and I hope to continue to write and upload more stories. Once again, thank you guys for reading I really do appreciate it but I definitely have to give a shout out to the person who was actually the inspiration for this story and that is my little sister Chris (yes its short for something). In real life, she's my nurse Jazmine. In fact some of the stuff Jazmine did were actually exaggerated versions of what my sister had done. A while back, I had a really bad cold and she wanted to take care of me just like Jazmine did with Huey. She didn't know how to make tea either and just opened the tea packet completely and just added water (cold water), she tried to make me soup which was really just a bowel of water but…she got the water from the toilet lol (good thing I asked her where she got the water before drinking it cause I would of been really made to have drank toilet water) and if your wondering, yes she also almost burned down our house but it wasn't from a toaster. I told her that tea needed to be hot so she went to use the stove but left one of the kitchen rags on top of the stove and it caught on fire. Luckily I caught her before she burned herself or even the house. I can laugh about it now but it definitely wasn't funny at the time. I was so pissed at her and yelled at her and made her cry. After 5 min, I cooled off and talked to her normally and we were good again but I told her not to tell my mom or we would both be in trouble. I mean the girl is only 8 so what are you gonna do?

Big shout out to Chrissy, and I didn't tell her that I wrote a story inspired by her yet. Now that its done, maybe I'll tell now. I guarantee she'll either be ecstatic or embarrassed :P lol.

So what about you guys, do you have a Nurse Jazmine in your lives or are you Nurse Jazmine yourselves?

"New in the Boondocks" will be updated but I don't exactly know when but I will do my best to do it soon and as for my other stories, I figure I'll try to write 2 chapters and then upload them so there wouldn't be such a long waiting period like for my other two stories.

So until then, See you guys later

Thanks for Reading J xoxo
