Only Time Will Tell • Why Don't We

Chapter 17- What's going on?

(Since I haven't updated in awhile, we are going to do little bit of a time jump. So, we left off with Zach and Mekayla making up from their huge argument, and that was around Christmas time. They all spent Christmas together as well as New Year's. Everything at the moment is going smooth in the Why Don't We household.........or is it.....and Connor, Peyton's brother is finally getting to meet Daniel for the first time!!!)

Peyton's Pov

Today is the day that my brother is finally coming to L.A., and I am kind've terrified. I haven't seen him in a really long time, and he doesn't really know that Daniel and I are together. I never told him because I knew what his reaction would be, but I'm gonna tell him as soon as he gets here. The reason he didn't come for Christmas is because he got called back into training, but he's finally coming today!

I just woke up at 10 AM and looked over to find the bed empty. I got up and brushed my teeth and hair and then headed downstairs. To my surprise, EVERYONE was up this morning even Zach and Corbyn 😂. I was greeted by Daniel wrapping his hands around my waist and hugging me from behind. I slightly jumped at his actions which caused him to kiss my right temple.

"Morning beautiful, " he said in a raspy, soothing voice which I love. "Morning, " I said almost at a whisper while turning around to hug him back. Daniel wrapped his arms tightly around me, one on my lower back and the other on my head. Be kissed my head while telling me how much he loved me(#cute❤️). 'Could this boy get any better' I thought. "Can we all please agree to keep the kitchen, the place where I eat my pizza a PDA free zone, " Jack asked while sitting on the counter eating pizza(😂). Everyone laughed at Jack's comment.

I wasn't really hungry, so I went to the living room and plopped onto the couch. I don't know why but I just felt really tired all of a sudden. After 20 minutes of me laying on the couch, I felt like something was wrong. I waited a few more minutes and suddenly I had to throw up. I ran to the downstairs bathroom and threw up for a solid 30 minutes. Luckily Daniel was watching me while I was on the couch and ran behind me. He held my hair back and rubbed my back while I threw up(🤮🤢). When I finished and brushed my teeth, Daniel carried me back upstairs to bed and cuddled with me.

I ended up falling asleep in Daniels' arms, but I woke up lonely and had to throw up again(😭). Due to me not eating that morning there was nothing for me to throw up. So, I had the worse stomach pains which led to me crying sitting with my back to the shower.

I think I was crying really loud because Daniel came back upstairs and immediately came into the bathroom. He came and sat next to me pulling me into his chest to hold me. "What's wrong doll, " he asked will rubbing my back and head trying to calm me down. "It hurts so bad, " I cried. "What does?" He asked. I put my hand on my stomach very slowly. "Awww come on doll, " he said softly while carrying me once again to bed.

Daniel's POV

Since this morning, Peyton's been throwing up. When she was sleeping I left to go downstairs to find something that might help her feel better. While looking I realized that we really need to get a better medicine cabinet (Daniel that's not the problem right now 😂).

I fixed her a glass of water and headed back upstairs. When I walked into our room❤️, the bad was empty and I heard loud crying from the bathroom. I went in the bathroom to find Peyton crying saying that her stomach was hurting really bad. I carried her back to bed and laid with her rubbing her stomach. After about 20 minutes she said the pain was still there. I decided to take her to the emergency room.

She wasn't up to it at first, but she decided to go. On our way to the doctor, she started breaking out in hives and she looked really green. She also kept heaving which I knew hurt because there was nothing to throw up. It broke my heart to see her in so much pain. I rubbed her back and started singing to her because I knew it would calm her down.

She started to relax a little more and the hives went away. After a few minutes, we made it to the hospital and Peyton was in tears due to the stomach pains. I carried her into the lobby (bc it hurt her so much that she couldn't stand), and asked the lady at the front desk if she could get us a doctor. She took one look at Peyton and immediately paged a doctor. The doctor had some nurses help me put Peyton in a wheelchair and they rolled her into a room.

"Excuse me, sir, you'll have to wait for the doctor, you can't proceed past this point, " said a nurse who escorted me to a waiting room. I waited for 2 hours before a doctor came into the waiting room. He called Peyton's name and I immediately hopped up. "Hi, I'm Peyton's boyfriend, " I stated. "Ok, Ms.Walker was suffering from a severe case of food poisoning, " said the doctor. "Is she gonna be ok, " I asked worriedly. I ask this question 1 because I care and 2 because I recently found out that you can possibly die from food poisoning.

"Yes, Ms.Walker will be okay, we prescribed her with antibiotics and some other medications, and she should be much better in the next few days to a week, " said the doctor. "Thank you so much, " I said while shaking his hand. "My pleasure, " he said as he walked towards a nurse.

I went into Peyton's hospital room to see her hooked up to IV's and an oxygen mask. She looked over at me and gave me a weak smile. "Hey doll, how you feeling, " I asked. "Better now, " she said weakly. I climbed into the surprisingly large hospital bed next to her and pulled her into my chest. She ended up falling asleep which she needed since she hasn't had any good quality sleep in a really long time.

Connor's POV

I rushed into the hospital and ran straight to the front desk. "Excuse me I'm looking for Peyton Walker, I'm her brother, " I asked the nurse. "Uhh let's see......okay room 391," she responded. I responded with a quick thank you and speed walked to room 391. I slowly opened the door to my sister and a guy laying in the hospital bed cuddling. I was confused about who he was and then I realized that she's probably in a new relationship. I sighed at the sight.

I walked out into the waiting room and put my head in my hands. After Peyton's last relationship I told her she should take a long LONG LONG break from dating. I see she didn't take my advice.

*THE NEXT MORNING*

Connor's POV

I woke up still in the hospital waiting room. I got up and went back into Peyton's room to see her awake, and that guy laying on her stomach while she ran her fingers through his hair. "Peyton..., " I whispered softly. She looked at me and her eyes light up with excitement. "Connor, you're here, " she said with excitement. "Yeah it's me, but uh who's that, " I asked pointing to the random guy laying on her.
She froze for a minute and as she was about to respond he woke up.

Peyton's POV

I woke up to Daniel laying on my stomach and with his hands wrapped around my waist. I started running my fingers through his hair as he snuggled closer to me even though we were as close as we possibly could be. When all of a sudden I heard someone quietly say my name. "Peyton..., " he whispered. I quickly turned my head to see my brother standing right in front of me. "Connor, you're here, " I said softly. "Yeah it's me, but uh who's that, " he asked pointing to Daniel. I didn't know what to say at first, but before I could say anything Daniel started to wake up.

"Uhh...what's going on, " Daniel asked groggily.
