"You know, being in this hospital makes me think of my mom," Taylor said suddenly and quite randomly. "She's fighting cancer right now."

Cassie frowned "Aww... honey, I'm so sorry." she said, feeling tears come to her eyes. She remembered her mom, and how she felt when she'd died. Taylor must feel the same. But, at least there was still some hope.

"It's been around two years since we found out, and things were getting better, but right now she's in the hospital," Taylor said quietly, looking at the door. "She's been in there for almost two months."

Cassie looked at Tay. "I'm really sorry, Tay." she said, quietly. Suddenly, the door banged open. In walked Josh, followed by a stressed out nurse. The nurse was saying "You can't come in here, this is a very sick girl..." Josh replied "That's my sister and my girl-" he stopped himself in time "Um, friend!" He brushed the nurse off and walked towards the two girls. "What. Happened." he said to his sister. Then, he looked at Taylor. "Oh. Are you okay?" he said, burshing a hand over her hair.

Taylor sighed and nodded. "Yeah, I'm okay now," she said quietly, glancing at Cass with raised eyebrows. "You don't need to worry about me."
The doctor walked back into the room with two needles and a thermometer. He ignored the girl and boy sitting next to Taylor, and walked up to her. "I have a tonic, which will help the swelling in your throat go down, and a painkiller for you," he said, rolling her sleeve up. He injected the tonic and painkiller into her arm, then stuck the thermometer in her mouth.
Taylor cringed and winced as the doctor poked her with the needles, looking away from Josh and Cassie out of embarrassment. She waited for him to take the thermometer out of her mouth, staring at the ceiling.
He took it out of her mouth and looked at the temp. "Your temperature's around 102 degrees. It's gone down a a bit, and should get better with the tonic I've given you."

Cassie cringed away from the needles. She hated hosiptals enough with out the needles and blood. She felt bile in her throut and her head began to spin as she saw the doctor pull the needle from Tay's arm out of the corner of her eye. Ugh, she was gonna be sick. She bolted up and walked briskly from the room, saying faintly "I'm...uh, going out a sec." She raced to teh toilets as soon as they couldn't see her and threw up. Ew, she seriously couldn't deal with needles.
In the meantime, Josh grabbed hold of Tay's free hand as the doctor inspected her. He looked up as Cassie left. She looked a little pale. He'd go find her in a minute - she always got sick when there were needles.

The doctor dabbed the places where he had injected the needles into Taylor with iodine to keep it clean. "Well, just call if you need anything." He walked out of the room.
Out of an impulse, Taylor pressed on the place where he'd given her shots, and realized that her arm was really sore from them. She tried bending her arm, and it hurt then too. "Why did Cassie leave?" she asked Josh, looking at the door.

Josh srugged. "She gets sick around needles and blood and stuff." he grinned. If she didn't come soon, he'd have to go find her. And he really didn't want to go walking into the ladies room.
Cassie sat down on the floor, and groaned. Ew, ew, ew. She sighed and stood up, still feeling a little weak. Digging around in her pocket, she found some change and a packet of chewing gum. Thank god. She slipped some gum into her mouth and walked outside. She brought herself a small bottle of water and sipped it as she walked towards Tay's room. Walking through the doors, she smiled sheepishly and sat on the bed next to Josh.

"I don't blame her," Taylor said quietly, frowning. She smiled when Cassie walked back into the room. She looked a little pale and was chewing gum (she understood why, ew), but she seemed okay now. "You alright?"

Cassie nodded. "Yeah. I'm hopeless with all the needles and that." she grimaced a little. Josh rolled his eyes, and ruffled her hair. Cassie moved away digging him in the ribs. She looked at tay. "What did doc say?"

"The tonic would help the swelling in my throat go down," Taylor said, rubbing her swollen throat.

"Hey, hey, it doesn't hurt or anything, I'm fine, Cass," Taylor said quickly, raising her arms in surrender. "Really."

Cassie grinned at her friend. Josh rolled his eyes at her sister. "You guys want anything?I'm gonna get a drink." he said. Cassie shook her head.

Taylor watched him go, then smiled at Cass. "Sure you're okay? You still look a little pale," Taylor said, winking at her.

"Hey, I don't like needles either, those hurt!" Taylor said indignantly, she smiled at her though.

"Nothing, Josh," Taylor said, opening her water and draining half of it.

Cassie grinned at Tay. This was gonna annoy Josh. He was nosy, always wanted to know what was going on. "Aw, come on tell me!" he said.

Cassie stage-winked back. "Yeah, that's it." Josh plonked himself down on the bed. "Bullies." he said, fake sulking.

Cassie sat up and tried to fix her messsy curls. "Bad. Hair. Day.£" she stated.
