It's been a week.

A week since the party.  A week since I went to the burger place with Bryce. A week since he kissed me a few times. A week since Bryce told me he liked me. A week since my mom came home. A week since I snuck out. A week since I talked to Kayla. A week since I've seen Bryce.

And for a week I've been sick as a dog with the flu. I texted Bryce to make sure he didn't have any diseases that could have been spread to me by kissing, but he said he didn't.

Bryce has texted me constantly, asking me if I was alright. His worries annoy me but make me feel kinda loved. 

I stare at the list of text Bryce has texted me in the past 10 minutes since I've woken up.

Bryce- R u feeling any better today??

Bryce- Are u still throwing up a lot?

Bryce- What's ur temperature today?

Bryce- R u drinking enough water?

Bryce- R u sleeping alright? 

Bryce- Have u been eating well??

I scan over the text a few more time before deciding to reply.

Me- I'm fine 🤢🤮

Bryce- R u sure???

Me- Yeah... Should be able to come back to school on Monday

Bryce- It's Friday... Do I have to wait an entire weekend to c ur cute ass??

Me- Y r u calling my booty cute??

Bryce- No... Dude... Okay, so u know how people call each other dumbasses? They don't call each other ass r actually dumb... they were just saying they are dumb... connect the puzzle pieces
