Snowie was the first to wake the next morning. She was surprised to find she and Jon were facing different directions. She heard a knock on the door. Hope peeked in.
"If you guys want to get up and get ready we'll go get breakfast."
Jon stirred at the word breakfast. Snowie laughed, of course that would wake him up. But she was a little shocked her mom hadn't said anything about them sleeping in the same bed. But she wasn't going to bring it up. Having Jon next to her made her feel safe, a safe she hadn't felt in a long time.
They went to a small place and Hope told them she had to work but that she would give them the money to do whatever they wanted for the day as long as they promised to be where she told them to be at seven when she went to pick them up. They chose the mall. After breakfast hope gave them enough money to eat lunch, go to the arcade, movies at least twice if they hit the cheap place and extra if they wanted to buy anything. The day passed to fast but by four Snowie was feeling sick.
"You okay?" Jon asked handing her a coke.
They were sitting outside in the cool breeze. Jon had called her mom and told her what had happened and she was on her way. He put an arm around her shoulders and pulled her to him. She rested her head on his shoulder and he could feel how hot she was through the fabric of his hoodie. He wished Hope would hurry. Finally after what seemed like an eternity she pulled up and upon seeing her daughter rushed out of the car and over to them.
"Hi, mom." Snowie raised up.
Hope felt of her forehead. "Oh honey. You're burning up. Thanks for calling Jon."
"Yeah sure thing. I'm just worried about her. She was fine then just got really pale and ran to the bathroom. Maybe it's the stomach flu going around." Jon said as he opened the door for Snowie.
She laid in the backseat and he set up front but kept looked back at her. Her eyes were closed but he could tell she wasn't asleep. When they reached her house Hope asked him to get the door he ran ahead of them opening the door. He waited outside her room while Hope helped her change. It seemed cruel to make her have to stand in her closet. When he walked in she was curled on her side, shivering. He wished there was something he could do but he settled for sitting next to her stroking her hair.
Hope came back in with medicine and smiled. "Jon I think maybe it'd be best if you stayed at your house for a while. Just so you don't catch what she has."
"Yeah probably." He weighed getting sick or going home. "I'll check on you later Snow White." He kissed her cheek and walked out.
Hope followed him to the door. "If you need to you can come back. I just don't want you to get sick too."
"Yeah okay." He said.
"You really are a good kid, Jon. Thanks for taking care of her."
He said he'd come by tomorrow and check on her. The next day came and went as did the next week. He tried doing his same routine but it was like a piece of him was missing and he only felt whole for short time Hope allowed them to have together. He did anything to keep busy, he even did double homework so she wouldn't have to do it herself. He knew she wasn't his only friend he had Hanna and Toby but Hanna still had the bug and Toby was still grounded. His life sucked without her he decided.
Short and sweet I know but it puts me in a good spot to go on. so don't hate to hard haha
