Storie's POV
"Dad I'm burning up open the window"I complain for the hundredth time as i put my hair up.
"Storie you already have the air on"he says as he cleans his gun for work.
"It's so hot in here"I say fanning myself I mean I'm already in shorts an a tank top with my hair up.
"Are you feeling okay"he asks looking at me.
"Yeah it's just hot"I say as I sit down in front of him. I watch as he cleans his gun an I get a bit dizzy I close my eyes an shake my head a bit. Maybe a drink will help I stand up an the room starts spinning like crazy before I know it I'm on the floor. I can hear someone talking but it's all fuzzy.
"Storie can you hear me"I hear an I nod closing my eyes an opening them.
"Yeah everything was spinning an I got really dizzy an I feel like I could throw up right now"I groan an he nods helping me up.
"We're going to the hospital"he says an I shake my head.
"No dad I'm fine really"I say trying to step away but stumble an grab his arm.
"No we're going"he says an grabs his keys an my jacket. We go to the car an he helps me in the car an I slip my hoodie on. He pulls out an I roll my window down an lay my head back with my eye close. After a couple minutes we pull up an he gets out an helps me out an into the hospital. He signs my name in an I sit down with my head in my hands. He sits down next to me an rubs my back.
"How you feeling"he asks gently.
"Not to good"I answer with a shake of my head.
We've been here for about an hour an nothing's getting better an i haven't been seen.
"I'm going to see what's going on"dad says an I nod as he gets up an walks down the hall.

"Hey baby"I hear an look up an see Toby I give him a small smile.
"Hi"I say softly as he sits beside me an puts his arm around me.
"You okay"he asks an I shrug my shoulders with tears in my eyes.
"Hey you'll be okay"he says pulling me to him.
"Would if something is wrong with me"I ask softly tears rolling down my face.
"Nothing's wrong with you babe"he says rubbing my back as he kisses my head. I lay my head on his shoulder as I see dad come over with a doctor an dad helps me up an we follow him to a room.
"Okay now your dad has told me what happened so we're gonna do some test"he says an I nod laying my head in Toby's shoulder. A nurse comes in an takes my temperature an heart rate an all that. She gets a needle ready an puts the band around my arm. I don't even do anything I feel so weak. She takes my blood an say they'll be back with the results in a bit. Dad thanks them an sits down on the chair an Toby helps me lay down on the bed an raises it so I'm propped up.
"Lay with me"I say almost inaudible an he lays down beside me an I roll over an bury my face in his chest an lay there. A couple minutes later the nurse comes in an talks to dad then gives me this medicine I take it an lay back down on Toby. He rubs my back soothing me I lay my arm with the cast over his side as he wraps his arms around me. I start to drift off when the doctor comes in an Toby sits up. I groan an sit up an sit beside him holding his hand.
"Okay results are back an your feeling that way because you have high blood sugar which could lead to diabetes"he says an I look at him shocked.
"What!"I cry out.
"It's not terrible you have to watch it though so it doesn't get worse you'll have to check your blood sugar when you wake up before meals an through the night"he says an I nod with tears in my eyes.
He goes through everything an explains it all showing us what to do an how to do it an set up a follow up appointment with my doctor. We thank the doctor an go to the car.
"I'll be over later babe"Toby says an kisses me an goes to his car as I get in dads. We pull out an drive home.
"How you feeling"dad asks an I shrug looking out the window.
"Sweetheart it's okay your fine"he says patting my leg in comfort.
"I know it just scares me a bit"I say quietly.
"I know but I'm here an so is Toby"he says an I smile.
"Thank you"I say as we pull into the driveway.
An he smiles an we go in an he goes to the kitchen an starts dinner. I lay down on the couch watching some show that was already on. Half way through there's a knock on the door an dad yelled come in. The door opens an I hear some talking then feel a hand on my back an look up an see Toby I give him a small smile. I sit up an he sits next to me.
"How you feeling"he asks an I shrug.
"Okay I guess"I say an lay my head on his shoulder.
"Stop thinking babe your fine I promise"he says an kiss my head.
I smile an turn my head an kiss him.
"Alright lovebirds dinner is done"dad chuckles I stand up an Toby follows me into the kitchen. I sit down as dad dishes out the plates.
"Storie get that little black carrier thing an check your sugar"dad says setting a plate down. I grab the little black bag an open it an just look at it not knowing what to do. Toby takes it an takes this little clicker thing puts a pink thing in it an takes a strip an puts it in the little machine.
"Give me your finger"he says holding the little clicker thing.
"No that's got a needle in it"I say holding my hands together.
"I know it does it'll be quick Storie just a quick poke"he says holding his hand out. I hesitate then hold my hand out an lay it on his an he takes my finger an lays a thing on the side of it an I jump when I hear a click. He squeezes my finger then lays the strip on it an it takes my blood. After a couple of seconds it beeps an he looks at the machine.
"It's a little bit low but you haven't ate yet"he says an kisses my head as he puts it all away an I look at dad.
"It's not bad you haven't ate yet we will check it again after you eat"he says.
"What I have to prick my finger again"I say sadly looking at them.
They nod an I groan an pick my fork up an start eating.

I checked it after I ate well Toby did an it was a bit high dad said if have to check it through the night........
