Erza POV
I went downstairs and fixed Jellal some toast and milk while I got myself a huge slice of strawberry cake. I went back up to see Jellal pacing back and forth in the hallway. Of course I was baffled.
"Jellal you're up and running! I few minutes ago I saw you slumped over the toilet trying puke stuff out!" I said, startled.
"Ah. Erza you're finally here! I took some medicine that Porlyusica left over for you." he said holding out the container. Jeez that guy is stupid. That was the container of medicine that only worked for like fifteen minutes because Porlyusica had put too many herbs! But at least I could get some stuff in is stomach so he wouldn't have to suffer by gagging on spit.
"Where's breakfast? I'm starvin'," he said.
"It's downstairs." I said, "Let's go!"
We went downstairs and he started munching on the toast and taking huge sips of milk. Within five minutes he was asking for more toast and eggs. I cooked him a big breakfast and he managed to finish in a good ten minutes. But there was one problem... What is 10 minutes plus 5 minutes? 15 minutes. And when does the medicine wear off? After 15 minutes. Within seconds Jellal was breathing harshly, trying to prevent the inevitable.
"Um Erza?" he said swallowing, "I think I have to-"
He didn't finish before I grabbed the trash can and he heaved heavily into it. With the eggs giving a yellowish color and the milk giving off a terrible stench, I saw poor Jellal choking and retching and coughing up whatever was still in his stomach. Bad idea for a big breakfast this morning, huh. The puking went on for about five minutes straight as I patted his back and emptied out the now filled-of-vomit trash can. I got him a plastic bag just in case he wasn't finished.
"E-Erza," he panted heavily, "Help me... I'm dying,"
"You aren't dying Jellal. It's just the pain that's making you feel like crap." I comforted him. Then he suddenly started sobbing and choking on his puke.
"Whyy?" he sputtered, this time coughing up thin strips of blood like I did,"Why me?"
I was so startled by the blood I didn't have time to care about his crying. I took the nearest "small plastic cup", filled it up with drinking water , and tried to force it into his throat so that he wouldn't cough up blood. Of course it didn't go in, but at least he was throwing up something.
I quickly rushed him over to the couch that was nearby and he curled up into a ball shaking hard and sweating like he had just ran the 5K.
"R-R-R-Rub," he managed to cough out.
I rubbed his bloated stomach in small circles, hence, getting him to fall into a deep sleep. I had to calm myself down before doing anything else. The blood was scary.
Jellal POV
My stomach was hurting, and I was having nightmares. Well, day-mares if you like correcting me. I was fighting with a hooded person and he kept jabbing his elbow into my stomach. I retched and gagged while they laughed a creepy laugh. They were advancing on me until Natsu came in and punched them in the back. Smoke filled the air as his fire burned into the hooded person. Then I started coughing and gagging on the smoke entering my lungs. As the hooded man advanced on Natsu, I saw a phoenix soar through the air, and then it gave a distress call. More and more smoke clouded my thoughts as the hooded man slowly took of his hood to reveal himself. His hair was a dark shade of blue and he had his back turned on me. I couldn't see one of his eyes, but the other one had Zeref's symbol on it signifying evil and darkness. Then I managed to crouch under a stone just as the vomiting begun. I vomited so hard trying to rid my stomach of the acids I'd sucked in. Then fireballs scorched my stomach as I screamed hoarsely and choked on my vomit.
Suddenly, I bolted awake and made a mad dash for the bathroom scaring the daylights out of Erza. I sat down on the toilet feeling my stomach rumble as I put my head on my legs trying to get rid of the pain without hurting my poor throat.
"Jellal!" Erza screamed, "Jellal, are you okay?"
"Y-Yeah," I mumbled.
"I'm coming in." she said as she tried opening the locked door, "Jellal let me in."
"Please just let me be," I said.
"Jellal, I can handle your vomiting," she said.
"I'm not vomiting," I said.
Erza POV
Great. Just what we needed. I cringed as I heard a splatter and Jellal moaning.
Diarrhea, I thought to myself, It's not gonna make him feel any better.
After about thirty minutes of anxious waiting, I saw a pained Jellal standing outside of the bathroom door. Then, the doorbell rang.
I went to the door and found Wendy, as a huge wave of relief settled over me.
"Erza-san! Are you feeling better?" Wendy asked.
"Yup, I'm fresh as new. But here's the problem," I didn't have to describe it. Poor Wendy had to hear Jellal's retching sounds echo down the hallway.
"Uh oh. Is Jellal-san sick?" she asked.
"Worse than ever," I said.
"Let me take a look," Wendy said.
She rushed over to the bathroom as I heard Jellal give a sigh of relief.
"Thank you so much Wendy. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!" Jellal panted.
"Um this only acts as sort of a pain killer, so it will come back in about twelve hours I believe. But I can tr-" Wendy didn't finish before Jellal cut in.
"Twelve hours is too great to be true, Wendy." he said.
"No please, let me try. Porlyusica-san taught me this new spell to heal the stomach virus. I hope it works, so can I please try it?" Wendy asked.
"Oh yeah, go ahead," I said to her. She focused hard on Jellal's body and I saw a blue glow come from her hands. After a long wait she panted hard and the glow diminished.
"I hope... it... works," she panted.
"Wendy, are you alright?" I asked her, not wanting to let her be in pain.
"I'm fine. Just used up a bit too much magic. I've put Jellal-san to sleep so by the time he wakes up he should be fresh as new, just like you!" she said cheerfully.
"Oh my goodness Wendy how much can I thank you?" I said giving her a hug. The young mage was a bit startled, but then she said, "Glad to be of service!" and left.
After a long time, Jellal woke up and it was almost eight o'clock at night.
"Goodnight, Jellal!" I said cheerfully, "How are you feeling?"
"So much better! What did Wendy do?" He asked.
"She cast a healing spell. Now you'll be fresh as new." I told him.
"Wow, give her my thanks." he said.
Then I threw my arms around him and planted a big kiss on his cheek.
"Jellal, you had me so worried," I told him.
"Oh Erza," he said, "Sorry, it was terrible. The pain and everything..." he suddenly broke into a coughing fit.
"I know. Is your throat okay?" I asked.
"Still coughing but everything is pretty good now," he said.
Then I cooked him a big dinner and we went to sleep, with nobody vomiting at four in the morning.
THE END
