Ponyboy rarely ever got sick. Usually it was Soda, or even Darry. Or another member of the gang. Never him. Until today.

As soon as he woke up, his head was pounding and his legs were shaky. He could barely get out of bed. Walking was a struggle too, he stumbled. His vision was blurry and he was dizzy, but he tried brushing it off. However, he couldn't brush off the fact he might be sick when he threw up. 5 times. In the span of an hour. Yeah, he was definitely sick.

So here he is, laying in bed, shaking with an upset stomach, a very high fever, a sore throat, headache, a stuffy nose, and insane dizziness. God help him, did he hate this. He was never sick, so how did this Happen so suddenly?

He coughed suddenly and it turned into a whole coughing fit. So much so he almost threw up from coughing so much. He groaned when he stopped and laid on his back, clutching his stomach. He was in so much damn pain, he almost wanted to cry. In fact, he nearly did from how much pain he was in. He wiped the tears from his eyes and tried to breathe through his nose, only for it to not go through his stuffed nose

"This is not fair. . ." He muttered as he turned to lay on his side. He didn't find being this sick very fair
