Jameson's POV:

I quickly drove to Drake and Layla's house. Once I got there, I quickly got her out of the car and brought her inside.

"Oh hey Ames, where's Lay- WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY COUSIN?!" He exclaimed once he saw Layla passed out in my arms soaking wet as am I.

"Why are you two soaking wet? What the hell happened?" He asked as I set Layla on the couch.

"I might of probably forgot to pick her up and left her in the pouring rain." I said not even caring if he's gonna get mad at me. All that matters right now is Layla.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" Drake exclaimed, I saw Layla shift a little and I glared at Drake. He immediately shut up and raised his hands in surrender.

"Okay, explain later. I'm gonna get blankets and a towel and an extra pair of clothes for her. But, Ames we can't change her. We're guys!" He said, I rolled my eyes and tossed my phone at him.

"Call Brooklyn and tell her it's an emergency." I said, he nodded his head and scurried away. I looked back at Layla and laid her head on my lap as I ran my fingers through her wet hair. I sighed and brushed the hair out of her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Angel. You're gonna get sick because of me. You should've just went home with Drake, I'm so sorry." I said and kissed her hand. I brought her hand to my cheek and just stared at her.

"Ames, you're a complete and utter idiot." Brooklyn said after she changed Layla out of her wet clothes. We are now in her room where Layla was fast asleep on her bed and wrapped up in blankets. I changed out of my wet clothes and borrowed a hoodie and sweatpants from Drake. 

"I know, I know I am. It completely slipped my mind, that's not even an acceptable excuse. I'll be here with her, I'll take care of her. I won't leave her side and I'll skip school to stay here with her." I said, she smiled and nodded her head.

"Good, because you should. Look at the poor girl, Ames. She's freezing, she's been here for about an hour already and she's still freezing cold. You need some major making up to to do." She said, I sighed and nodded my head.

"Yeah,  I know." I said and bowed my head. She patted my shoulder and then grabbed her stuff.

"I'm gonna get going now, when Layla wakes up please tell her that I was here." She said, I nodded my head and she gave mea smile. She gave one last look at Layla and walked out of the room. I walked over to Layla and sat beside her, she shifted a bit and then opened her eyes. She shot me a tired smile and reached out her arms for me. I smiled and gently pulled her up wrapping my arms around her.

"I'm sorry, Angel. I'm really really sorry, now you're sick because of me. This is all my fault." I said and buried my face in her hair. She sniffled a little bit and then pulled away from me. She cupped my cheeks with her hands and made me look at her.

"I'm gonna be fine, Jamie. In a few day, I'll be all better." She said trying to assure me.

"But-"

"No buts, Jamie. All that matters now is that we're both here and safe, I was getting worried. I didn't know where you were or what happened to you." She said and kissed my nose. I smiled and let out a little chuckle.

"You were worried about me? Angel, look at yourself. You're sick, because of me." I said and bowed my head in shame. I felt her little fingers lift my head and she looked me in the eye.

"Baby, I'm gonna be fine. I'm just gonna be sick *cough* for a *cough* little while. You don't need to worry." She said in between coughs, my poor little Angel.

"Let me get you some warm water, Angel." I said standing up, she whined and pulled me back down.

"No, stay here with me. The water can wait till later, I wanna cuddle with you. You're warm." She said holding onto my arm. I smiled and just let her be.

"Okay, Angel." I said and kissed her forehead. She smiled and I laid her down as she still held onto my arm. When we laid down she wrapped her arms around my waist and tucked her head in my side and closed her eyes.

"Sleep tight, Angel. I'll be right here when you wake up." I said, she hummed in response and within a few minutes, I felt her breathing even out meaning she was asleep. I smiled down at her as I wrapped my arm around her. I grabbed my phone from her desk and texted my Mom.

Jameson: I'm sorry, Mom. I'm not going home tonight either, I might not for a couple of days. I need to take care of Layla, she's sick because of me. I might come home tomorrow to get some clothes though. 

A few minutes later, I got a reply. 

Mom: Okay, honey. Take care of yourselves. I love you <3 <3 <3 

Jameson: Yes, Mom. I love you too, take care of yourself okay?

Mom: Yes honey, now go take care of your girl. 

Jameson: Thanks Mom :)

I closed my phone and placed it back on the desk and looked down at Layla to see that she has a faint smile on her lips. I placed a kiss on her forehead and then I heard the door open. I saw Drake walk in with Dylan, Warren, and Blake.

"Hey, what are you guys doing here?" I asked them in a quiet tone careful not to wake Layla up.

"Drake called us up saying that Layla was sick and we got worried and wanted to check up on her." Blake said in the same tone as me, I nodded my head and gestured to Layla who was beside me.

"How is she feeling?" Warren asked 

"She's still a bit cold and she's starting to have coughs and a cold." I said, they nodded their heads and Drake just looked at me.

"I'm guessing you're staying the night again?" He said, I smiled and nodded my head.

"Yeah, there's not a chance that I'm leaving Layla alone now. This is all my fault after all." I said and I felt Layla snuggle closer to me.

"I'm gonna go get her some medicine and then call her doctor to see if it's safe for her to drink them with her current medicines." He said and brought out his phone and then walked out leaving me with the other guys.

"So what exactly happened?" Dylan asked, I sighed and ran a hand down my face.

"Lucas wanted to have a meeting because I refused to fight for him next week." I said

"Typical of him" Warren chucked 

"Why don't you just quit?" Blake asked

"I wish I could, but I can't. He'll kill me if I do." I said 

"That's messed up, man." Dylan said, I chuckled and nodded my head.

"It sure is, man. It sure is. How about you guys? When's your next fight?" I asked them

Yes, you heard me right. We're part of a fight club, all of us, my friends and ever Drake himself. At first, it was just a hobby, but then it became something more than that. It became our source of income. I honestly didn't know that Drake and the other guys were part of the fight club until recently. My mom knows about it, she tried to talk me out of it, but I refused to stop. I didn't want her to be the only one paying all the bills and my tuition for school. 

"Hey, what you guys talking about?" Drake asked as he walked in the room.

"Lucas tried talking Ames into fighting for him next week." Blake said, Drake turned to me and gave me a confused look.

"Then why don't you?" He asked, I shrugged and he just raised an eyebrow.

"It isn't that easy, Drake." I said, he just rolled his eyes and nodded his head.

"I don't get it though, what's the worst that could happen? You aways win anyway, you are the best fighter Lucas has." He said

"Like I said, Drake. It isn't that easy." I said, he shrugged his shoulders and just sat down on Layla's desk chair.

"Whatever you say, man." He said, I rolled my eyes and looked down at my little Angel and placed a kiss on her forehead once again.

"I won't let them get to you, Angel. I won't."
