KH - Fast Food Madness! V2

Roxas' smile disappeared. "Well, as far as I know, it's only a cold," he answered truthfully. If it got any worse, he wasn't aware of it.

 

Sora nod and continued staring at the ceiling. He bit his lip in disgust. Not at Kairi...at himself. His first thought had been that he didn't want to be alone, and he didn't even think about how she would be feeling. How could he have been so selfish?

 

Roxas turned his head and looked at the wall.

Kairi laid down on her bed, fully dressed with wet hair. The shower hadn't helped like she thought it would. She still had her headache, and she was still weak from illness.

 

Sora would definitly miss her though. He already was. Nobody would be there to hold his hand when he woke up, or kiss him on his forehead when he was actually concious. No more snuggling for a little while too. Those thoughts saddened him.

 

Kairi coughed, and it hurt her throat. She brought a hand to her forehead, her eyes widening slightly at how hot her head was. Now she had a fever? Fantastic. Kairi sat up, her feet touching her floor. She was exhausted, had chills, was weak, her muscles ached, she had a headache, she just coughed, and now she had a fever too?! She groaned. The only other symptom was nausea, which she didn't have...yet. She closed her eyes in frustration and sickness when she realized something. She was one symptom away from the flu.

 

Sora stayed silent in his bed and gazed at the ceiling sadly, hoping that Kairi would get better soon. Not just so that she could be with him...but because he wanted her to not be sick.

 

Kairi felt tears form behind her closed eyelids. She didn't want to be sick, she wanted to be with Sora. And it seemed like this happened so she purposely couldn't be. One tear escaped her closed eye and trickled down her cheek. She wasn't only crying for that reason, but because of everything bad that had happened, and because she was feeling terrible.

 

Sora shut his eyes and let his head sink deeper into the pillow, feeling very upset and sad at the new turn of events. Couldn't they all just get a break from all the drama?

 

Kairi felt her damp hair press against her face when she curled up into a ball on her bed, tears leaving her eyes. She didn't want any of this, any of it. If they could just get a break...

 

Sora's head hurt from thinking so much. He frowned and shut his eyes again.

 

As Roxas stared blankly at the wall, he began to wonder where Namine was. If she was in the hospital or somewhere else, he was hoping she was all right, in any case.

 

Sora let out a breath as he lay in his bed, still feeling worried despite Roxas' reassurance that it wasn't serious. Being sick was never fun, and Sora was worried about Kairi.

Namine smiled to herself as she walked through the hospital hall right by the boys' room. She had actually been in the hospital for about five minutes, and she had conveniently run into Roxas' doctor. And he had shared some good news with her, which made her want to jump for joy. But she had to tell Roxas first.

 

Kairi knew that crying was only going to tighten her stomach and make her feel worse, but she couldn't help it. She was too upset to stop. But she should have. Kairi's heart seemed to skip a beat as she got a familiar feeling in her stomach that was never welcoming. She pushed herself from her bed quickly and darted for the bathroom, reaching the toilet just as she began to vomit.

Roxas bit his lip. Things had gotten worse, and he didn't like it. Not one bit. First the Boston Market incident, and then this hospital room. Now Kairi was sick, Sora was upset, and Namine was gone. He didn't know what could add on to the load of unfortunate events.

 

Namine tried to surpress her smile as she came up to the door and softly pulled it open, unsure if either of the boys were asleep or not. Her blonde hair swung over her shoulder and stood out against her navy blue sweater as she entered the room, her winter boots landing softly on the tile floor.

 

Roxas flitted his eyes to the doorway, his teeth leaving his lip as a small smile formed on his face.

Kairi gasped for breath once she was done, and she flushed it. She started sobbing, out of sickness and disgust, and sadness as well. She had the flu, and that took a few days to get rid of, which meant a few more days away from Sora. Kairi sobbed more, a horrible taste in her mouth.

 

Namine silently turned around and shut the door softly behind her before she looked around the room, and she noticed both boys looking at her. She gave them a wide smile as she stood by the door. "Hey." She greet her friends.

Sora nod and gave her a weak smile. "Hey," he said back, surprised that he had actually spoken.

Namine smiled softly at Sora. She could tell that Roxas had told him the news. But after a moment, she looked away, not wanting him to feel awkward. She started toward Roxas' bed.

 

Roxas' smile widened at hers. "Hi," he greeted as she walked toward his bed. She seemed like she was in a great mood.

Kairi got up weakly, using the bathroom counter for support. She immediately reached for her toothbrush and squeezed toothpaste on it, starting to brush her teeth as she felt the tears leave her eyes and trickle down her cheeks.

 

Namine's smile stayed planted on her face as she sat herself down in a chair by his bed. "How're you feeling?" She asked, looking into Roxas' piercing blue eyes.

 

"Better," Roxas said. Especially now that you're here, he thought. Whenever she was with him, Roxas really did feel better. But he wasn't lying either. He wasn't feeling any pain while sitting still; it was just when he moved his leg the wrong way that it hurt.

Kairi spit out the toothpaste along with the horrid tang in her mouth. She finished brushing her teeth and ran her fingers over her face, wiping away the tears. She caught her reflection in the mirror and paused. She was a mess; she was even paler than she was normally, her hair was gross from not drying it, she looked fragile. Kairi looked ill.

 

Namine's gentle smile widened. "That's good." She said, making her feel even more happy.
