Brave path 15

Rebecca:
Thomas and I sat next to each other while the others set the table. Matt brought the food over and got everyone a drink before sitting down himself. I knocked my arm by accident, pain soaring through it. The amount of pain put me down a little, because if any of these guys did it, they'd barely notice. "Thank you," I said, slowly eating my food. It was pretty good.

Matt:
"Don't thank me! You're the one who made it."

Rebecca:
I grinned and ate more, making my plate the quickest to be empty. However, I grimaced as I felt the stomach ache coming on. "I shouldn't have eaten that fast."

Noah:
"I don't blame you though, are you sure you've never cooked before?" Noah asked, raising his eyebrows.

James:
"This is too good for someone who's never cooked before." James laughed.

Rebecca:
"I'm just that amazing." I sighed, followed by a burp. "Oops." I giggled, covering my mouth.

Thomas
"That's what you get for hoovering up your food, want anymore?" Thomas asked.Vigorously, I shook my head and stood up, going to take everyone's empty plates.

James:
"I'll do that love." James said, taking them before I could protest.

Rebecca:
Thomas stood up and took me to the living room, prompting me to sit down.

Thomas:
"How are you feeling?"

Rebecca:
"Ok I guess, fed up." I felt sick. I felt tired. I felt useless. I felt so... so, disgusting. My body was losing as much hope as I was. He sat down and frowned, holding his arms out. I let him hold me. We didn't speak. He rocked us side to side and I felt myself become drowsier. That was how I tended to feel, though. Comforting me, a blanket was draped across me and I was laid down.

Thomas:
"Goodnight."

Rebecca:
I hummed in response before I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was alone in my room. It was the middle of the night and I wasn't a bit tired. Since the boys would be awake, I turned my lamp on and called them. Being without them caused an empty pit in my stomach that no amount of love from the guys here seemed to fill.

Robert:
"Rebecca? Why are you awake." Robert asked softly, setting the phone down to reveal him and Elliot. I shrugged and stood the phone on the lamp.

Elliot:
"We heard it's hard to adjust, do you wanna talk about it?" Elliot said, leaning forward. I shook my head and looked down- there was nothing to say. "I just wanted to see you guys, I love you."

James:
"Rebecca, why are you awake?" James said, startling me. He came and laid next to me, taking the phone. "You probably tried to tell her, but this one needs a lot of sleep, talk to you guys later?"

Rebecca:
They nodded and waved bye to me before James ended it and turned to face me.

James:
"I know you're awake and feeling alone, but I promise you're not. Please come to one of us because your sleep is so important now."

Rebecca:
I turned the lamp off and cuddled into his chest, closing my eyes. There was no tiredness left in my body, yet I still managed to drift to sleep. That was the wonder of my medicine. It either gave you nightmares, or made you so tired that you could hardly stay awake. It sucked. Forgetting where I was, waking up in someone's arms made me panic. He groaned as I tried to get out of his grip, both of us realising what happened.

James:
"Hey, hey, it's only James baby." He said, holding his hand out. I took it and pressed my head into my bed.

Rebecca:
"I forgot where I was, it won't happen again, I swear."
