A Sick Sidekick

Chapter 2

Hey guys! I'm back with another chapter so here it is! Enjoy! * I do not own Henry Danger or any of the characters *

Henry's POV

Yesterday was a little off. I was tired all day, and I couldn't stop coughing and sneezing, and a headache had begun to form. I assumed it was just my allergies so I did a deep cleaning of my room and Charlotte and Ray did the same with the man cave. I went to bed last night thinking I'd wake up back to normal. Let me tell you something. I was very wrong about that. When I woke up, not only was I still tired, and by that, I mean instead of sleeping it felt like I had just run a huge marathon. I was still coughing and sneezing like crazy, and I was very very congested, but no matter what I did, I just couldn't clear my nose. My throat was raw and it hurt like someone just rubbed a brick up against it. I woke up in the middle of the night freezing so I ended up adding three extra blankets. As much as I just wanted to stay in bed and sleep in, I had to go to work. Crime does not take sick days, so neither do I. Although I'm not entirely sure that I'm sick. It could just be allergies again. Not wanting to admit to being sick, I went with the allergy thing. It had to be allergies. I never ever get sick, I have an immune system of steel. I got out of bed but doubled over as my stomach rolled with nausea. Still refusing to admit to being sick, I got up and took another allergy pill. When I finished getting ready for the day, I left the house and started my trek to Junk n' Stuff. When I arrived, I ordered a glass of orange juice from the auto snacker. Just as I sat down to drink it, Charlotte entered the man cave.
"Hey Henry, I brought some- Woah what happened to you?!" Charlotte asked surprised.
"Nothing. I told you, it's just my allergies acting up." I replied.
Charlotte definitely did not look convinced.
"I don't think this is allergies, Henry. I think you're coming down with something." She said. Charlotte reached out to feel my forehead but I quickly swatted her hand away.
"Charlotte, I promise you, I'm fine. It's just the dust in the air that's aggravating my sinuses or something." I reassured.
Charlotte still didn't look convinced, but went along with it anyway, not wanting to push her luck.
"Where's Ray?" I asked.
"Right here." Ray said as he was walking out from behind the secret door.
Ray's eyes widened at the sight of me. Did I really look that bad?
"Um, Henry, do you feel okay? Not to be mean, but you look terrible." Ray said.
I rolled my eyes in frustration. I'm glad people are concerned, but I wish they could just leave me alone about all of this.
"I'm fine, Ray. It's just the dust in the air that's messing with me." I said.
After awhile of arguing with Ray the same exact way I did with Charlotte, Ray dropped it. Both of my friends were now concerned, and now I would have to hear their worries and concerns until whatever was going on with me went away. Again, I'm glad their concerned, but I can take care of myself. Another harsh wet cough escaped my body, earning more worried looks from my friends.
"I'm fine" I mumbled.
This was going to be a long day.

Ray's POV

Henry once again got up and ran to the bathroom in panic. That's the third time today. I'm getting really concerned about Henry and I know Charlotte and Jasper are to. While Henry was in the bathroom, I decided to take this time to talk to Charlotte and Jasper about Henry.
"Do you guys notice anything off about Henry?" I asked.
"Definitely." Charlotte replied.
"I thought it was just me." Jasper added.
"So just to clarify, we all know that he's sick." I asked them.
They both nodded their heads in agreement.
"So, how do we get him to admit it?" Jasper asked.
"I don't know. He never admits to being sick, so it's not like he would start today." I said.
"I think we just need to keep an eye on him. If he gets any worse, we make him admit to being sick whether he likes it or not." Charlotte said.
That sounded like the better plan to me. It's not like sickness has gotten out of control. Yet. We all agreed and kept an eye on Henry and made sure that he didn't overwork himself.
"Soon Henry came walking out from behind the secret door looking worse than ever. His skin was very pale, and he had huge grey bags under his eyes, he had beads of sweat running down his forehead, and overall, he definitely did not look like he felt well. I feel so bad for the kid. I wish he would just make things easier and admit that he was sick! I gave both Charlotte and Jasper a look as in to pay attention to him. They both nodded and from then to the end of the day, we watched him like a hawk.

Henry's POV

It was now the end of the day and I was very tired . I almost passed out about three times from exhaustion. I felt horrible. My headache increased, my throat hurt more than ever, I was severely congested, I'm coughing so much I might eventually cough up my lung. Let's not forget my horrible nausea that's been messing with me all day. I had to make up a bunch of excuses to run to the bathroom because I kept throwing up. I think it's official to say, I'm sick. But I am most definitely not going to admit that to the others. Maybe this is just a twenty-four hour thing. Maybe by the time I wake up this will all be over. I crawled into bed and turned off the light. I tossed and turned in bed just about all night. I couldn't sleep. If I wasn't coughing I was puking. My stomach hurt and my chest ached from coughing so hard. I tried to think back on what could have caused me to get so sick. And then, it all hit me. Last week when Ray and I were being interviewed for stopping Stainless Steve, the reporter who was interviewing us, had been acting weird through the whole interview, and eventually she apologized to us because she had been getting over an illness. Great. I caught whatever sickness she had. I thought about telling Ray I was sick, but I decided not to. Crime does not take sick days so neither do I. I can't let Ray down, I have no choice but to suck it up, and go on. I nearly collapsed in bed due to another dizzy spell. I snuggled up in my nice comfy bed and drifted off to sleep. I hoped that maybe this would be something that would pass in the next two days. Here's the thing, it didn't.
It's been almost a week, and the only thing that's happened, is it getting worse. By now, Ray and Charlotte were begging me to see a doctor, but I refused. I don't need a doctor, I'm strong enough to handle a little bug on my own. Right now I'm in the man cave trying my hardest not to pass out. My head throbbed, my uneasy stomach was swirling as if it was about to shoot out everything I've ever eaten in my life, I was so congested I could hardly breathe, I'm freezing cold, my throat burned, and I cannot stop coughing.
"Henry, please see a doctor, this is getting out of control." Ray pleaded.
"I'm fine, it's just a common cold." I said.
I'm glad my friends are concerned, but it's probably just a cold.
"Henry, I agree with Ray, This isn't normal." Charlotte added.
"Guys, I told you. It's just a cold. I'll be fine!" I reassured.
But Ray kept on.
"Henry please, just see a doctor. Just to make sure." Ray begged.
I decided to just leave before losing my temper.
"Guys, I'm just goi-Hetchoo! I'm just going to go if this is all you're going to say to me the whole time." I said whilst rubbing my nose. It has been irritated all day and it's gotten very annoying. Ray and Charlotte sighed in defeat.
I walked out while Ray and Charlotte watched me leave with concerned looks on their faces.
As I was walking home, severe nausea crept up on me. It felt as if it were twisting into knots. A sudden dizzy spell came upon me as well and soon I doubled over while hugging my stomach. Then I accidentally started vomiting all over the sidewalk which did not help my headache one bit. Maybe walking home was a bad idea. I tried getting up but then got more dizzy than ever. Black stars danced in my vision, and then, everything went black. I was passed out on the sidewalk, all alone in a dangerous part of Swellview, very sick, and no one knows where I am or what happened.
