When Carolyn woke up that Monday morning, she really wasn't feeling good at all. She felt super nauseous and she knew she couldn't go to class if she was puking everywhere. She turned off her alarm and turned over in bed, attempting to go back to sleep.

"Carolyn, get up! We're going to be late for class!" Her roommate, Melanie, burst through the door.

"Melanie, please." Carolyn begged. "I'm really not feeling well today."

Melanie frowned. "Want me to take you to the doctor?"

Carolyn sat up in bed and felt a wave of nausea. "Actually, may--"

There was a knock on the door and Melanie's head shot in the direction of the sound. "I'll get it!" She perked up.

Carolyn heard the door open and a very familiar voice travel down the hallway. "Uh, hey, I'm looking for Carolyn?" Andy.

"Um, Carolyn? Why is there a really tall, skinny guy at our door asking for you?" Melanie actually sounded a little scared. Melanie was one of the only girls on campus who religiously obeyed the 'no dating' rule.

"Just send him in, Melanie. I'll explain later." Carolyn scooted under her blankets more and waited as she heard Andy's heavy footsteps coming down the hallway followed by Melanie's light ones.

When Andy appeared in the doorway, he gave her a half smile and walked in, sitting on the end of the bed. "You don't look too good." Andy observed. "Do you want me to get you something?"

Carolyn thought for a minute. It would be a good way to get Andy out of the dorm for a while. She had to explain Andy's presence to Melanie and it would just be really awkward if he was there for the whole thing. "Actually, yeah. Could you get me something for my stomach? It feels weird. I think I may have gotten food poisoning or something."

Andy nodded and stood up, walking down the hallway and out the door. As soon as Carolyn heard the door shut, she motioned to Melanie to sit down on the bed.

"Do you need me to take you to the doctor? You know you'll need a doctor's note for missing class today." Melanie offered.

Carolyn nodded. "I know but I don't feel up for it right now. Do you think you could get me something else though?"

"Anything." Melanie said eagerly.

Carolyn took a piece of paper from beside her bed and wrote down what she needed Melanie to get for her.

Melanie looked down at the paper with a puzzled look. "Are you sure?"

Carolyn just simply nodded.

"You know, I have noticed you were getting really thin lately..." Melanie confided.

"I just need you to do this for me, Melanie. Please." Carolyn begged.

Melanie looked hesitant for a moment and then agreed. She got up off the bed and headed down the hallway.

Carolyn turned over in her bed and closed her eyes in an attempt to get some more sleep. She really felt like complete shit. She hoped the nausea would pass soon because she didn't want it to affect her responsibilities for her Broadway show or her classes. Now that the dorm was quiet, she just needed Melanie to get back before Andy did.
