I woke up to the sunlight streaming through my window and onto my face. I had slept all afternoon and night. I rolled over when suddenly I remembered. 'No no no' I thought. A tear slid down my cheek but I quickly stopped anymore from coming and got out of bed.

I turned my phone on then walked over to my cupboard. Looking at my reflection I pulled my long, wavy, light brown hair into a messy pony tail. Then I changed out of my clothes from yesterday and into a big comfy shirt and some denim shorts.

Walking back over to my bed I noticed I had a missed call and a new message.

1 Missed call: Louis

Louis: Morning! Do you want to do something todayyy?

I decided to ignore his text again and pulled out a book, snuggling back into my bed.

About an hour later my phone started vibrating from my bedside table.

Incoming call: Louis

Again I ignored him. I really didn't want to talk to anybody.

My stomach then rumbled and I realised I hadn't eaten anything since lunch yesterday. I walked to the kitchen and poured myself a bowl of cornflakes. Plopping down on the couch I turned the tv on, not paying attention to what was on.

""Morning sleepyhead" I turned around to see mum smiling at me.

I smiled back. "Morning mum"

"How did you sleep darl?"

"Great" I replied before shoveling a spoonful of cornflakes into my mouth.

After I finished my cornflakes I went back upstairs and watched a few movies.

"Charlie!" mum called. I went downstairs to see what she wanted.

"You need to eat something sweetheart. You are sick and your body needs food because it is so weak at the moment"

"No I don't, my body is perfectly fine" I told her rudely. I refused to accept the fact I was sick even though I knew what she said was true. Mum could tell what I was thinking. I saw her eyes water up and felt mine about to do the same.

Before I could stop myself or realise what I was doing I turned and ran out the front door. I heard mum call after me but I didn't look back. I just kept running. I ran and ran and ran. My body was running out of energy and eventually my run turned into a walk. It was getting dark. I hadn't had any water all day and my throat was so dry. I needed water. My body felt weak. I should have listened to mum. What was I thinking?

Eventually my legs gave in and I fell in a heap on the concrete ground. I started crying. I couldn't hold it in any longer and I let the tears pour down my face, loud sobs coming out of my mouth.

I lay there crying for a few minutes before I saw a familiar car rolling down the road. Mum got out and helped me into the back seat where I sat, the tears still pouring out.

"Sweetheart, it's alright. You will be ok. I promise." mum whispered before driving me home.

When we arrived home I had a shower before going to bed. Mum came in to kiss me goodnight and I fell straight asleep, trying to forget all my worries.
