Maya

No words could describe how awful I felt.

The room spun as I opened my eyes, and my stomach hurt so much. My head pounded, my heart pounded, and I wobbled around as I tried to get to the bathroom.

Then I puked. Everywhere.

Calum came rushing through and held my hair back, pushing my head over the toilet as I threw up again.

"Fucking hell Maya,"

"I feel like death,"

"Uh huh. I'll look after you,"

"Oh my god I feel like shit,"

"I'm gonna look after you," he said again, "Are you done for now?"

Instead of responding, I threw up again, and he gently rubbed my back until I was done. He wiped my face, then sent me back to bed while he got a mop out, passing me a bucket to keep by my bed.

As I waited for him, I felt my body get colder, and pulled the duvet over me, but then got too hot.

"Calum!"

"I'm coming, I'm just mopping,"

"I feel like crap,"

"I know,"

A couple of minutes later, he came through with a wet flannel, gently dabbing it on my head as I bundled under the covers more.

"How much did you drink, My' ?"

"I don't know but Finn called me a lightweight,"

"Okay, probably not too much then... if you can go back to sleep it will do you good, but drink a bit of water first,"

He helped me drink water, then propped up my pillows and helped me get comfy, gently running his fingers through my hair which helped me a lot.

I woke up and threw up a few times after that, going to sleep almost instantly after, always waking up to an empty bucket. Each time I felt a little bit better, and Calum got me some toast, ripping small bits off for me to eat.

"We've all been there," he said, "bless ya,"

"I feel crap,"

"Keep sipping water,"

"Mike is gonna kill me,"

"Not if we can get you in decent shape by the time he comes, and he can't be mad anyway. Do you know how many times I had to bring him toast and cuddle him to sleep?"

"I feel awful,"

"I know, sweetheart,"

"I didn't say you could call me that,"

"Sorry,"

"You can,"

"Okay. Eat some toast,"

I did as he said, but it wasn't long until I puked it back up again.

"Okay, you're not ready for food just yet. Let's just cuddle and nap,"

I started to cry, so he climbed over me and laid behind me, gently rubbing my back. Maybe I had gone a bit overboard, but I didn't think I'd feel like this. It ruined the fun night I'd had.

Eventually, I did fall asleep again, and when I woke up I was super hungry. I ate some toast, them we watched tv and waited it out, but I didn't throw up so Calum seemed happy. He brought me some crackers, and I had more water, then he sent me to shower since the room wasn't spinning anymore.

It made me feel a lot better, then he dried my hair for me and tied it out my face, finding me one of Mike's hoodies to wear.

"We need to get a bit more food in you, how about some pasta?"
