Megan's POV

~~(Four months later)~~

"Meg you should really start wearing gloves”Keith as we walked out of the college, it was very late already, the atmosphere was really cold and it looked as if it was going to rain anytime soon. As usual my finger tips were freezing, I wonder why this always happens to me. My neck, face and ears are exposed too why won't they freeze.

"No It’s nothing I can manage”I said, then my nose and throat felt scratchy. Oh ho, *first sneeze, second sneeze, third sneeze *

"See__ you are already coming down with something”Keith said with a worried edge in his voice.

"Meeee___”I asked exaggeratedly, "No ofcourse not, I hardly fall ill”cue to four sneezes.

"You've been exposing yourself in the snow and now in the rain, you aren't Superman you know__ everybody needs rest, and everybody falls sick”he said placing his overcoat on me and tucking my hands into the pocket.

I don't feel right at all, my body was aching a little and my nose was really hot, "thanks Keith, I'll take good care of my self from now”*coughs*

He ruffled my hair with his fingers smiling, he likes doing that a lot. Then it started drizzling, and then it increased and the rain came pouring down.

"Yay Rain!”I said excited, lifting my hands up as the rain droplets hit me.

"No no no”Keith said dragging me away from the rain and into a shade.

I pouted, "won't work, no rain for you Missy”he said shaking his finger at me.

"You are not the boss of me”I said to me.

"No am not but am the lecturer who could give you and F and make sure you don't graduate ever”he said proudly.

I pouted and whined like a child, "I hate you"

"You don't mean that”he said.

"I do to”I insisted.

"No you don't”he said.

"OK watch me walk away from YOU, who I totally hate”I said as I jumped out of the shade and into the pouring rain.

"Meg!”He shouted coming after me.

"It’s hopeless Keith, see you tomorrow at lecture, if am still alive__ bye”I said running away from Keith.

"Meg I'll give you an F for this!!”He shouted.

"I would like to see you try Mr Schneider!”I shouted back not knowing if he will hear me or not.

I ran home but not before making small stops to play in the rain. As soon as I reach home, I took a hot shower and drank a smoking hot mug of coffee.

I woke up in the morning feeling like I was run over by a train, whoosed into a tornado filled with ice and snow then dumped in the middle of an earthquake in Russia. Interpretation; I felt horrible.

I could barely get out from bed, my limbs felt weak and shaky, all of me was weak and shaky, my throat felt dry and scratchy, my nose felt as if it was carrying a bag of hot boiling cement.

"Bye bye Meg”Darlene and Dylan shouted to the door before running off.

The door was opened I heard the creak, "bye Meg, have an early project to submit this morning, got to go”Rita said then closed the door. Opens it again "Remember to eat something, even if It’s just a fruit”closes door runs off. Opens door again "and carry an umbrella”then she left and didn't come back.

I dragged myself out of bed and came to the kitchen, made another mug of coffee, coffee solves everything, while sipping the hot coffee. I heard a knock.

"Come in”I grunted out.

"Miss Hart Am ready if you are”Louis said stepping in.

"Sorry Louis I can't make it to work today am home sick”I replied sorely.

"Oh my you look terrible Miss Hart, let me take you to the hospital”he said concerned.

"No, no hospital, I'm fine all I need is a cup of Noodles, can you get me that?”I asked, I was damn hungry.

"Are you sure that's all you need Miss?"

"Yes, now please go"

In less that five minutes, he arrived with the cup noodles and chop sticks.

"Are you sure you don't need a hospital Miss?”Louis asked again, did I look so horrible?

"No It’s just a light fever, now please go away and tell my boss I'm a little sick”I said shooing him away as he finally left.

I sat down on the cold wooden floor and used my comforter(bed sheet) which I've been dragging around, to cover myself. I switch on the TV and settled to eat, In no time I'll be better.

I was emptying my stomach filled with coffee and noodles into the toilet bowl, I couldn't stop throwing up, I vomited everything down to the Tuna sandwich I had for lunch yesterday, everything. When I was finally through I felt much worse I didn't even have the energy to stand up. I'm gonna die, finally It’s happening, I have no mum to take care of me, Susan has proven stubborn and is now working a day care, Rita and the twins have gone to school, Elvis is at work, Sam is with bimbo, I'm all alone. I don't want to die pretty boy, I really don't want to.

I lay down there on the cold bathroom floor, a little sleep won't hurt, right?. I gently closed my eyes and everything went blank.

Javier's POV

She's sick?, how can she be sick? Or I hope it isn't serious. Why didn't she go to the hospital? I knew it, she's been stressing herself so much, now she is sick. She needs a vacation, we need a vacation, maybe we could go to Hawaii, or Paris, or England even Italy or the Caribbean. That's for later, for now the most important thing is MEGAN IS SICK.

I reached her home in less than 10 minutes, It’s good that I was with my latest Ferrari model car, so fast and reliable. I rushed into the house.

"Megan, Megan!!”I shouted barging into the house and searching around when I didn't get an answer.

She is not here, why is she not here? I was getting really worried until I opened the last small door which I thought was a cupboard. Then I saw her lying on the floor.

Fear crept into my heart as I ran to her.

"Megan Megan, wake up, Megan”I said kneeling near her as I touched her head, thankfully she was boiling hot (still alive) not freezing cold (dead).

She groaned, "Megan are you hurt, did you fall down”I asked afraid to touch her in case of any broken bones.

"No I'm asleep, go away”she said.

I let out a joyous breath as I lifted her up bridal style. I found my way to the only room which was smaller than my bathroom. Many People hated hospitals, I didn't know if Megan liked or hated hospitals, I didn't want her to freak out if she suddenly found herself waking up in a hospital.

I was forced to go to boys scoot by my dad, so I knew how to take care of an injured or sick person. Thanks Dad.

I went to the kitchen to search for an ice pack in the fridge but I found none, the fridge was practically empty only cans, frozen meat and water. I grabbed a pack of frozen meat, a bowl, cold water and a towel.

"Ah It’s cold”Megan complained eyes closed as the meat came in contact to her head.

"I know but I need to bring down your temperature before warming you up”I said, she nodded and relaxed.

When the meat unfroze I kept it aside, removed my suit jacket, rolled up my sleeves and dipped the towel into a bowl of cold water as I used it on her head. Then I went to unbutton and remove her long sleeve shirt.

"What are you doing”she asked me, holding my hand on her button.

"I need to remove it, trust me”I said, she opened her eyes and looked at me, then she let go.

"I trust you, bluey”she said, closing back her eyes.

I froze, it confirmed, she's my Nicki Minaj. I smiled, then on impulse I kissed her, just a small peek on her lips, I smiled, she's never gonna trust me again. I removed the top, closed my eyes, reached her wardrobe, opened my eyes back, found a light top, went back to her, couldn't help but take a peek__oh Megan please don't trust anyone else but me, I beg you, then I managed to wear her the top.

After using the towel on her body I went to get other things to make My Megan feel well again. OK My feels really good. My Megan, My Girl, My Woman, My PA, OK that's enough, my smile is getting creepy.

I removed my expensive shoe, then I wore the big slipper I saw outside, next door hers as I ran to the nearest pharmacy and super market, getting a drug for fever and supplies for chicken soup. I made the best chicken soup using my mum's recipe.

"Megan, get up you need to take this”I said sitting on the bed and waking her up, her body wasn't boiling hot anymore, it reduced and was almost normal.

I pulled her up making her relax on my shoulder as I fed the soup to her, at first she was reluctant, babbling about how she is going to throw up, but later she loved it and was eating really willingly, complimenting my cooking. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face, she called me bluey.

After taking the medication, and finishing the soup, I lay her back down and covered her with the comforter.

"It’s cold”she grumbled, I got on the bed to adjust the comforter, then she pulled me down and cuddled me up.

"It’s so cold”she said snuggling closer and tighter, while I lay there, stiff like a log of wood, surprised at the sudden intimacy and It’s effect on me and afraid to touch her else she disappears or I wake up from a dream.

"Javier?”She called slowly.

"Uh?”I managed to say my voice coming out croaked.

"Thank you”she said as I felt moisture on my shirt, was she crying?.

I finally kept my hand on her back softly caressing her until her breath evened out, to soft relaxed breathing.

I'm always going to be here Megan and I'm never letting you out of my sight again, Nicki Minaj.
