Not Herself (age 13)

Rainbow was sat in Miss Cheerilee's English lesson like she did every Tuesday afternoon, but today something felt off she didn't feel quite right. She'd put her head on the desk and was starting to doze off when she felt someone shake her.


Rainbow: *turns around and sees twilight staring at her* hmm what?


Twilight: *whispers* rainbow pay attention or you're going to end up in detention.


Rainbow rolled her eyes and looked back to the front. She tried to pay attention to the lesson but she just wasn't feeling right, and placed her head back on the desk and fell asleep.


Miss Cheerilee: *sees that rainbow had fallen asleep and sighs* twilight can you please wake rainbow dash up?


Twilight groaned and gently shook rainbow but when the athlete didn't wake up, she shook her more vigorously and called her name.


Twilight: rainbow? Rainbow wake up. She's not waking up miss cheerilee.


Miss cheerilee got a little worried sure rainbow often dozed off in class, but she was never this difficult to wake up. She noticed that rainbow looked a little peaky and wondered if she'd gone unconscious.


Miss cheerilee: *gently* rainbow can you hear me?


Rainbow: *lifts her head out her arms* y-yeah?


Miss cheerilee noticed that rainbow look rather Ill and raised her hand to her forehead.


Miss cheerilee: *concerned* you feel really hot rainbow are you feeling alright?


Rainbow: *groaning* not really.


Miss cheerilee: ok. Twilight can you take her to the nurses office please? Rainbow take your stuff because I think she'll be sending you home.


*in the nurses office*


Nurse red heart: do you feel sick sweetie?


Rainbow: no I just feel a little off.


Nurse red heart: ok well you do have a temperature so I'm going to call your mother to come and pick you up ok?


Rainbow: I could just walk home.


Nurse red heart: *shakes her head* I'm afraid I can't allow that rainbow dash, what if you end up fainting on the way home? Just sit here while I call your mum and have some water.


Rainbow sighed and drank the water and then laid down on the bed whilst she waited for windy to, come and pick her up.


*at home*


Rainbow was sat on the sofa playing on her phone as windy was stroking her hair, she'd had some medicine and now just needed to rest.


Windy whistles: *stroking rainbows hair* did you feel ill this morning baby?


Rainbow: I felt a little off but I thought it was just a headache, and would pass.


Windy whistles: ok and you definitely don't feel sick?


Rainbow: no mum I just don't feel like my self.


Windy whistles: *kisses rainbows cheek* ok well I'll let you get some sleep come and get me if you need anything.


She left rainbow to get some rest and the young girl fell asleep in minutes, hopefully when she wakes up she'll be back to her usual self.
