Her Mate, The School's Player novel Chapter 28

"No she's at work, why?"

"I was just wondering if there was anyone at home".

"Well there's Damian's parents, all the older pack members who've left school and the other parents. Do you want to go home?"

"Yeah a bit, I feel very sick mentally and physically". I massage my head as there was a massive headache coming along.

"I'll take you home".

"Maybe I should just go to the nurse".

"I'll take you, come on". He takes my hand and helps me to the nurse's office. I knock on the door and go inside.

"Hello Amber and Devon, can I help you?" she asks. She knew us because she's friends with our father.

"Um...yeah Amber's feeling sick and she wants to lie down", he says.

"Aw well come on in Amber and let's get you better", she says, pointing to the bed. I sit down on the bed and tap my fingers against it. "If you want you can lie back?"

"Okay", I say. I lie down and put my head on the pillow.

"She might need a basin, she's had this puking bug for the past three days", Devon says. The nurse opens a cupboard and takes out a basin before setting it on the table beside me. "Amber if you want to go home, I'll drop you there".

"I'll ring you if I need you", I say. He nods and kisses my cheek. I grab the basin quickly and puke into it. Devon bites his lip as he cringes. Devon pats me on the shoulder and runs a hand down my back.

"I'll take her home", he says. After I've finished puking I put the basin back on the table.

"I'm sorry", I say.

"No need to apologise", she says with a sympathetic smile. "You get better soon, Amber". I thank her and say goodbye as I get off the bed. Devon puts his arm around my side and walks me to Dad's car. He had a spare key for it. We get inside the front and he drives me home.

"Maybe you should see a doctor", he suggests, while squeezing my knee.

"Hi Amber, what are you doing here?" one of them asks.

"She's sick", Marie says, coming back in the room with the hot chocolate. She passes me it and I take a lovely warm sip. She had marshmallows and cream on top. Most of the pack member's had kids because most werewolves have children young. I don't know why, they just do. I guess it just sort of happens.

"Aw poor Amber, you've been sick a while now", another one says. I sigh as I nod. One of the pack member's child comes up to me with their teddy. They looked like four or five, he was very cute and had his mother's eyes and father's hair and face. I think his name was Logan if I remember correctly.

"Amber, do you want to play with me and teddy?" Logan asks. Aw he's so cute, I love kids.

"Logan, Amber wants to rest. Don't be bugging her", his father, Joe says. Joe was around 24 and his mate Cassandra was like 23. They would have been teenagers when they had him.

"I'm sorry Amber", Logan says.

"It's fine Logan, I would play but I don't want to get you sick too", I say.

"Maybe it's better if you all leave and let Amber sleep", Marie says. The pack members nod and go to the front door.
