The Alpha Chose Me by Missy Elliottxo

"I couldn't even if I wanted to". I said. "I feel like death".

"You need me to bring you anything?". I could hear voices in the background.

"No I'm all good and it's best you stay away until I feel better. Both of us don't need to be sick". I laughed. As I heard my gran coming up the stairs I took my phone off loudspeaker. "I'll be fine in a few days. I have to go I'll speak soon". Hanging up I sat myself up just as my gran walked in.

"Chicken noodle soup". She smiled. This was what she used to give me when I was younger. "I didn't put butter on the bread in case it makes you queasy now eat up". As she placed the tray on my legs I held it steady with my good hand. It did smell delicious. "Have you still been taking your antibiotics?".

"Yes of course". I had missed a few when I had been drinking but my hand wasn't as sore anymore.

"Make sure you finish them. I'm going to nip to the store for a few things but I won't be long. Do you need anything?".

"No I'm good".

"Okay honey I won't be long. Once I come back I want to have a chat with you".

"Okay". I waited until she left before I turned my tv on. Flicking through Netflix I grinned when I noticed the vampire diaries had been brought back. Hitting play I dug into my soup.

I hadn't managed to finish my soup but I did eat most of it and I was feeling much better. As I was scrolling through Facebook I received a text from Jake.
