Joan Cesborn
I'm sick
I might be a model but I'm a human too. I had a really bad fever and I couldn't get out of my bed because I didn't even have the strength to get up. I got this since yesterday and still until now..
"Why is my princess sick?" My dad walked into my room without knocking
"I'm just tired dad" He sat beside me and touched my forehead
"Doctor will come in 30 minutes , want anything?" He asked
"No.. I'm fine. Stop worrying dad" I said and he ruffled my hair
"Sleep a lot pumpkin. I'll buy you something later" He kissed my forehead and I smiled. He walked out and I closed my eyes trying to sleep.
"Joan!!" I jumped in shock when my twin just burst my door
"Get out fucker" I hissed
"Oh right you're sick.." He said in a disgust tone and I glared at him
"Get well soon twin!" He said and walked out. After that a doctor came and checked on me. He said I needed a lot of rest. He gave me medicine and after that I closed my eyes and went to dreamland..
I slowly opened my eyes because my phone kept ringing. I got up slowly and reached my phone on the table beside my bed. I answered it without looking at the caller ID
"Hello"
"Joan! Why aren't you answering my calls?" Nate asked in a mad tone
"What do you need?"
"You- wait! What happened to you? Are you sick?" He asked
"What do you want Nate?"
"Are you sick?"
"Nate.. What do you wan-"
"Are you sick?" He asked repeating
"Yeah"
"Come out from your house" He stated and I can't believe this guy. I'm sick and he wanted me to get out of the house. I turned my head to see it's 4 o'clock
"You're an asshole" I ended the call , I got up from my bed and damn.. I'm so damn weak. I walked out from my room only in my hoodie , training pants and no makeup to see Nate. Wait.. Why do I care about my appearance for him?
I walked out of the house and thank God no ones here. I saw Nate's car and it's 4 o'clock. He's supposed to be in his house. I got into his car and he looked at me blankly
"What do you want?" I asked and he put his hand on my forehead
"You're burning"
"Thanks for reminding" I said sarcastically
"No one's here right? I'll take you to my house" He stated and I stopped him
"Are you crazy? Why would I go there with you?" I asked
"I'll look for you , everyone went out right? You're alone so I'll take care of you" He said and I looked at him disbelief
"No.. I'll just res-" I stopped when I heard my stomach growl
"I'll take care of you" He said and I glared at him. He asked his driver to take him back to his house. Nate kept looking at me and I sighed
"Stop looking at me"
"You're pale"
"I know , like a zombie. Lucky you to see me like this" I said sarcastically
"I like the healthy Joan more," He said, ruffling my hair and glared at him. He chuckled
"Come here you.. let me warm you up" He pulled me and put his hand around my shoulder and pulled me closer
"Get off , I'm fine"
"You're burning.. My mom used to say that if you hugged a person who has a fever. The healthy person will absorbs your fever" He smiled at me and I just learned to his shoulder cause I'm damn not good right now
"You'll get a fever later on" I said as I closed my eyes
"I don't mind" He caressed my hair and I fell asleep in his arms
I opened my eyes slowly and saw the ceiling. I turned my head to see Nate sleeping beside me holding my hand. I looked at his face and couldn't help but felt so weird. I slowly got up from the bed. I took my phone and walked out from the bedroom.
"Hey.. Cover me up will you?" I called my Joel
"Where are you?"
"Autumn's , I was bored. I'll get home by 11" I said
"Can't believe you went out when you're sick" He hissed and I ended the call. I took an empty glass and filled it up with warm water. I drank it and felt my stomach was so empty.
My eyes turned to the table to see a memo with my name on it. I smiled to see a chicken soup because I needed it.
"Joan whe-" Nate stopped when he saw me sitting on the dining table. I just copped my first spoon of chicken spoon
"Eat up.. You were hungry right?" He sat beside me looking at me
"Yeah" I started eating without caring about anything else. This is so damn good. I turned my head to him and he's already leaning so close
"Nate!" I leaned back in horror
"You look awful without makeup" He stated and I sighed. I took my water and drank it
"Thanks Nate , you're very honest"
"You have a bad personality and annoying" Wow.. so honest
"Thanks but I don't care about your opinion about me" I said ignoring him
"That's what I'm trying to say a thousand times inside my mind but it didn't work" He said and that made me turn to him
"What?" I looked at him ridiculously. I got up from the dining table and put the bowl into the sink. I turned on the water and started to watch it
"I hate you Joan" What? I stopped and turned to him
"You hate me?" I asked
"Yeah"
"Great.. I guess" I said in a weird tone. I put the bowl away and walked to the dining table looking at him disbelief
"I want to stop everything here" I looked at him disbelief and my head hurted since I'm not any better
"Stop what?"
"Force you to help me with everything"
"Why?"
"It's dangerous and I don't want to involve you in this Joan" He looked at me seriously
"Why suddenly? I need to kill that guy too!"
"I'll kill him for you"
"No no.. I still want to work this" I said because how can I make sure my dad okay?
"Nate.. I still want to continue. My dad-"
"It's finale Joan , trust me in this" He said seriously and I looked at him disbelief
"No , I don't want to stop"
