23) Sick
Morgan came twenty minuets later too. "I can't sleep", she said in Peter's door standing. "Come here...", mumbled Peter. She smiled, came to his bed and lay down next to him. Peter took her in his arms, and they slept.
In the morning came Tony and woke them up.
At breakfast Tony meant: "I'll drop you off at school." "You don't need to...-" "I'm going in the city, so I can drop you two off." "Thanks, dad", said Morgan and ate her toast. Peter didn't eat. "Why aren't you eating?", asked Tony. "I can't. I've stomach ache." "Oh. You okay? Do you want to stay here?", Tony meant worried. "No, it's okay..."
In school the stomachache wasn't getting better. Worse, it was getting worse. During lunch break he went to the toilet and vomited. Ned called Tony and he came to get Peter.
"Pete... Are you alright?", asked Tony in the car. "No..." "I'll bring you home and make some tea, alright?" Peter nodded.
At home Peter went straight to bed. Tony brought him tea and heard the phone ringing. He took the call and said: "Hello?" Someone talked indistinctly. "Oh... Yeah, I'm coming..." He hung up and said to Peter: "Morgan is sick, too. I'll go and get her. Okay? You'll be okay here?" "Sure", meant Peter.
Tony smiled and went out of the room.
Later he heard Tony comeback, with Morgan. "Peter is sick, too. You can't go to him", explained Tony to her in the floor before Peter's door. Tony came in and looked after his son. "You alright?" "I'm okay..."
In the evening came Pepper back. Nobody knew completely, where she's been.
"Where are the kids?", they heard her say. "In their beds. Sick." "Shit!", Pepper said aggressively. "Shit...", repeated Morgan in her room.
The adults talked indistinctly downstairs.
Peter thought: "Maybe Dr. Bryat misses me now. I didn't call or wrote an email, to say that I'm sick..."
Directly in this moment he got a call. "Mr. Parker?", asked a woman. Probably the one from the reception. "Yes, hello." "Aren't you coming today? Dr. Bryat asked, where you are." "I'm sick", explained Peter, "I forgot to call. Sorry." "No Problem. I will inform Dr. Bryat." "Thank you!" They she hung up.
"How are you?", asked Pepper in the door. "I'm okay." "Do you want to eat something? I can make you toast if you want." "That would be nice. Thanks, Mom!" Pepper blushed and she went downstairs.
A little bit later, she came with two plates with toast and some salty snacks in Peter's room. "Here! Take it slow... Your stomach has to get used to eating." Peter smiled and bite in the food. He ate slow, but he ate something. Pepper gave him a kiss through the air and went to Morgan.
