I woke up a little later, my stomach still feeling weird. It was hard to describe... it felt like there was a lot of pressure on my lower stomach. I really wish I knew what was up. All the throwing up, feeling more hungry than normal, and now my stomach hurting... It was starting to scare me. What if something was seriously wrong with me? Could it be from having sex? But I'd never heard of all that happening days after having sex...

I looked around the room and remembered that Benji had been here with me. I got up slowly, feeling a bit dizzy and nausious, but I managed to clear my head and make my way into the kitchen, where Benji was cooking something in the microwave.

"Hey," Benji smiled, walking over to me and sitting down at the table beside me, placing his hand on my knee, "How're you feeling?"

"Kinda crappy," I sighed, "I feel all achey and dizzy and ugh. I hate it."

"Want some medicine?" Benji asked softly, "And I'm making some soup for you. It'll help calm your stomach down."

"Thanks," I smiled, "I'll get some medicine after I eat. If I take it on an empty stomach, it just might make it worse."

"Good point," Benji smiled, "I'm gonna stay with you tonight. I wanna make sure you're okay."

"Thanks Benj," I smiled gratefully, "But you don't have to, y'know if you have other things you gotta do."

"Not at all," he smiled, "Anything else can wait."

"Man, I'm so glad Spiderman dropped that asshole MJ at the end," Joel girnned as we left the movie theater and headed into the mall, "She sucks."

"Totally," I agreed, "Superheros don't need chicks. Chick just ruin the superheo-ness of it."

"Exactly," Joel smiled, glancing at his watch, "It is... dinner time, and I'm starved."

"Same here," I nodded, "I need food. Wanna go to Applebee's? I'm not really in the mood for a fancy place."

"Sounds good to me," Joel smiled, "I just really want some food, and then sleep. I'm really tired from the show yesterday."

"Yeah, I know how you feel," I replied, "I'm really tired too. Mind if I stayed with you tonight?"

"Not at all," Joel smiled as we walked into Applebee's and were immedietely seated. Guess the must've reconized us, 'cause there were other people still waiting to be seated...

I took a seat across from Joel in the booth, picking up the menu and opening it, looking at the choices.

"It's nice to be able to know what you're ordering," Joel giggled mostly to himself.

I snickered at how much like a little boy he sounded and nodded. "Yeah. I think I'm just gonna get a burger or something small. I'm not really hungry."

"Me either," Joel agreed, "I think I'm more tired than hungry. I did feel starved, but now I'm not so sure it's hunger. More of tiredness."

Mike was asleep again. We had been watching Ripley's Believe It Or Not on TV, and he'd dosed off right when Kelly Packard was going to announce the Ripley's Challenge or whatever. The phone on the night table rang suddenly, and I jumped to pick it up before it woke Mike.

"Hello?" I asked, keeping my voice low so I wouldn't wake him.

"Hey Benj," Joel replied, "Why are you talking so low?"

"Mike's asleep," I told him, "I'm gonna stay with him tonight 'cause he wasn't feeling good."

"Oh, that sucks," Joel replied, "Tell him I hope he feels better. And also tell him that Chester's staying with me tonight."

"Will do," I smiled slightly, "And what exactly are you and Chester doing...?"

"Sleeping," Joel laughed, "We're both exhausted from the show last night."

"Alright," I smiled, "I'll see you tomarrow then. Later."

"Later Benj."

I hung up the phone and crawled back into bed with Mike, trying not to make the bed shift too much. I could tell he wasn't feeling good, and he'd need his sleep. I smiled slightly and he mumbled something in his sleep, and rolled over to face me, throwing his arm around my waist and hugging me close to him. I slipped my arm over him and hugged him close, playing with his hair lightly. He'd dyed the tips of it a bright red color. I think it looked cute on him.

Mike stirred slightly and his eyes fluttered open. "Benj?" Mike whispered, cringing and grabbing his stomach.

"Are you alright?" I asked softly, helping him to sit up, "Want me to get you some medicine?"

Mike nodded, his face scrunched up in pain. I scrambled off the bed and went into the bathroom, grabbing the pink stuff and a glass of water, before running back to Mike, handing him the medicine and the water. Mike drank the little cup of medicine quickly, before drinking the water, handing them to me and laying back down.

I placed them on the night table and crawled back into bed with him, hugging him slightly. "Are you alright?" I asked him again, rubbing his stomach gently.

He nodded slightly. "Yeah... my stomach just hurt like a bitch... as sson as it happened, it ended. It was weird," he said a bit shakily, "I wanna go to a doctor before we leave tomarrow. Just to see what's up."

I nodded. "Okay. I'll take you to one tomarrow morning then. C'mon, let's get to sleep. You can use some rest."
