Jade groaned as she rolled herself over on her bed. She had been feeling unusually hot, so she opened the windows and took off her shirt, but now she was shivering and there were disgustingly thick green mucus dripping down her nose.

She grabbed her phone, typing out an illegible text to her girlfriend to make sure she won't freak out when she doesn't show up at school, and wrapped herself into a cocoon before dozing off again.

Jade was awoken by a rasping at her door. She threw a pillow in the direction of the sound, but Tori's voice from the other end stopped her for reaching for her scissors. "Jade? Can I come in?"

"Just open the door, I'm sick."

"I know. That's probably what 'im sovk im syauong in ved' means. I brought you chicken soup, Gatorade and your favorite rainbow goldfish crackers", Tori smiled as she made herself comfortable next to Jade on her bed, stroking her girlfriend's hair. "Now be a good girl and let me feed you."
