<<ooc- I miss everyone, but hopefully this will make up for lost time>>
Raven woke up once again to a horrible bout of coughing, nearly gaging. Her upper chest hurt and it felt like it was attempting to close off her air, making it harder and harder to breath. Every time she tried to move to a position that relieved some of the discomfort, she coughed even harder and longer that she had before.
Raven just couldn't put her finger on the reason why she felt so horrible. The day before, she felt fine and was her normal self up until a few hours right before dinner. She started to feel slightly dizzy, but she thought was because she was hungry, but when dinner finally came around, she couldn't bring herself to eat anything. The only thing Raven did at dinner was drink cup after cup of lemon tea and honey to keep her stomach from turning, and keep her coughing at bay.
She eventually rolled out of bed and attempted to get ready for the day. She knew that Dueling was an elective class, and knew that she wasn't going to take it, but the study period was something she could have used to catch up on her herbology assignment. Semplen is too nice of a guy to not do his homework; I should at least do his work.
Raven was able to button up her yellow blouse before another round of coughing came; this time, it brought her to the ground. She couldn't breath and the coughing didn't seem to want to stop. After a moment of gasping for air, Raven finished getting ready as quickly as she could and ran to the bathroom to get a drink of water. While that did help tremendously, she knew that she couldn't go through the day like that.
Debating whether to go to the library or not, Raven stood in the middle of the stairway in a slight daze. Should I even bother goin down stairs? she thought, I know I'm goin to feel crappy all day whether I go about the day or not. Is it better to stay here or pretend every thing's hunky dorey?
The debate was short lived as Raven turned around and went back to her room. This seems like the lesser of two evils. She walked into her room and changed out of her uniform of the day right back into her PJs. She pulled her hair back into a low pony tail and walked back into the bathroom to get a final drink of water before she attempted to fall asleep again.
Once back in the lonely room, Raven crawled back into her bed, trying to get warm again. She did like the quietness of the room, but she didn't like that there was no one to talk to in here. The loneliness finally got to her that she got out of bed to dig through her trunk. Inside, tuck away in a secret area, was an old, somewhat ratty, stuffed dog toy. The toy itself was a dirty, grayish color that had discolored patches in a number of places. Despite the look of if, Raven smiled and held the toy closer to her. After a few seconds, she crawled back into bed with the dog toy, and attempted to sleep. It's going to be alright, she thought as she allowed her eyes to shut once again, holding the toy even closer, cause I know it will be. With that thought, she was able to fall asleep...until she woke up to coughing about an hour later.
