{bella}
i wake up with my forehead pounding against my eardrums and groan.

i feel the arms that are around my waist, wrap stronger around me.

i smile into my pillow.

as i start to move around, my stomach grumbles in pain and i double over, tears filling up my eyes.

i breathe in and out but my headache and cramps are making it worse.

joey still wrapped around me, i tap him on the shoulder and he groggily opens his eyes.

"good morning." he chuckles, knowing it's the afternoon, but quickly frowns as he notices my water filled eyes.

he sits up. "what's wrong?"

a tear slips down my cheek.

"c-can you get me t-t-the heating pad-d?" i say, shivering, and he nods and quickly runs out of the room.

in a flash, he's back, concern written all over his face.

"i found it." he says proudly as he plugs it in the wall and gives it to me.

"thank you." i mumble, cuddling up to my blankets.

he feels my forehead.

"bella you're burning up!!" he says, and i just shrug, too tired to open my eyes.

"bellaaaaa." charles yawns walking in the room.

"you okay??" he asks, but i feel too weak to answer.

"bro, what's up with her?" i hear charles mumble to joey.

i feel so so so weak.

"baby, you okay?" joey whispers beside me, and i shake my head no weakly.

baby????

"bellaaaaaa i wuvvvvvv youuuuu." charles says annoyingly and a smile tugs at my lips.

"there she is." charles says, and i smile wider as joey cuddles up to me again.

"alright lov- i mean bye guys." charles laughs and i weakly mumble a bye.

"bells, what's wrong?" joey mumbles against my hair, and i sigh.

"really weak." i manage, and he cuddles closer to me.

"i'll be your teddy bear." he giggles stupidly, and i chuckle.

"joey shut up."

and suddenly i'm drifting off to sleep again.

{}

i wake up and everything is dark, and i feel a whole lot better.

i notice joey must've left so i sit up.

i check my phone.

6:37 pm.

okay so i only slept 2 hours not bad.

i sit up and brush my hair out and put on a sweatshirt and head downstairs.

"hey sleeping beauty." charles looks at me and i just roll my eyes.

"you feeling better??" mady comes up to me.

"yeah, definitely." i smile and so does she.

"by the way I TOTALLY ship you and joey." she whispers in my ear and my cheeks flash scarlet.

"madyyyy." i whine and she wiggles her eyebrows at me.

"i don't like him." i hiss at her as she mouths 'whatever' to me when joey walks in the room.

"you're up!!" he says to me, a smile warming up his face.

"hey bella." sophia smiles and i smile back.

"sooooo." joey starts.

"we have a surprise for you." charles smirks.

"why?" i question and they smile.

"because you are feeling bad." joey proudly smiles and i feel my cheeks warm up.

"you didn't have to do that.." i look away, embarrassed of being embarrassed.

"but we WUVVVVVV YOUUUUUU!!" charles yells, and i just grin.

"sooooo, go look in the kitchen."
