You usually never miss school, since you’re such a perfect student. Except today was different. You woke up feeling super sick, so your mom made you stay home.

Neil was sitting in class when he noticed your seat was empty. It was strange so he decided to text you. Multiple times. Except you weren’t answering.

So after first period he left school, driving over to your place. Even if you both hated each other he didn’t like how you weren’t answering.

You were in your room, trying to get some work done even if you were too sick to even stand. You tried to focus but your head was pounding from a headache.

You stood up slowly before hearing something at your window. You turned to see Neil climbing through. This was the second floor. He closed your window and turned towards you like everything was normal.

“Do you ever check your phone?” He questioned, seeming somewhat annoyed with all this.

Though he took in your sick appearance, seeing how pale your face and lips were, like you were about to die right on the spot.

“You look like shit.” He took a couple steps towards you. Not caring if he got himself sick or not.
