I pop two tablets into my mouth and wash them down with water as I grab the vegemite toast Lyon made for himself before swiftly shutting the door behind me.

"Bastard!" I hear from inside the house and I let out a loud laugh before walking to the bus stop.

As prescibed by Dr. Sparks I took two iron tablets this morning instead of one, Sparky thought my usual dosage may not be high enough for a man of my height and build, especially since I excersise regularly. I don't even know why I'm listening to him, I know he's feeling joy over telling me what to do.

Raven

I am not leaving my bed, nope. I refuse to show my face to Lee ever again, what the fuck was last night?! I don't understand why I acted so lovingly towards him, looking back it was like I was his housewife or something. Ugh, the though makes me shiver.

It must have just been my urge to help a patient. I want to be a doctor, so clearly I saw my chance to be one and took it. It's still awfully embarrasing and I wish he had fallen and hit his head or something to forget the whole thing.

Robyn

I get home feeling exhausted, the whole day my body felt heavy and completely zapped of energy. I can't have the team, or worse Coach believing something's wrong and benching me for the next game! If I work harder maybe I won't feel so tired from a simple night of training.

Yeah, that makes sense, I'll do a home workout or something. Suddenly motivated, I head upstairs and change into workout clothes and search on YouTube for an at home workout tutorial to follow.
After a few minutes of scrolling I find one that will do the trick and begin the circuit with twenty pushups, this will be easy!

I'm only on the second round of the circuit when my arms begin to shake and I can feel my body begin to fall. No! No, no, no this is not happening! Why can't I even do a simple YouTube workout!

I refuse to stop, even as my legs quiver and my heart pounds, my vision swims and I feel my head trying to fall foward and I fight against it. My whole body is on fire and my joints clench, I see black and then a bright light and my head hits the ground.

"Robyn!"

Ack, my head.

"ROBYN!"

My body is being shook back and forth but I can't open my eyes.

"ROBYN LEE!"

I'm flipped on my back and my eyes slowly blink open, "Wha-"

"Oh thank fuck, Robyn!" Lyon's arms wrap me tightly and I let my head fall to his shoulder. Lyon grips my shoulders and pushes me back to look into my face, "What happened? Are you alright?"

I can tell he's worried because his eyes are wide and red around the rim, but I hate people coddling me or feeling concern for me. So I push him away and stand up, I sway a little and Lyon reaches his arms out to catch me but I hold my hand up to stop him.

"I'm fine, I just didn't drink enough water," He looks stunned as I turn and walk to the kitchen. I fill up a glass with tap water and take another iron tablet.

"Are you sure?" Lyon doesn't look convinced.

"Yes I'm fine, I just pushed it too hard with excess training ok? You don't have to worry," I sigh.

"Of course I'm going to worry when I find my little brother unconsious on the ground!" He shouts back.

"OK I get it, I'm sorry." I do feel bad, I can't even imagine how I would react if the roles were refused. "But I promise, I'm fine."
