When Indigo woke up she noticed that she was sweating, despite the fact that it was only 9 degrees. She also had a really sore throat and didn't know what it was, so she went downstairs to her parents.

"So you got work this morning dear?" Lightning asked her husband.

"Yeah just got until lunch time." her husband Thunder replied. "By the way have you seen Indigo? She's going to be late for school. Again."

Just then Indigo came downstairs sweating and coughing like mad.

"Sweetheart are you ok?" her mother asked.

"No I'm sweating, but I feel cold and my throat really hurts"

Lightning put her hand up to Indigos forehead and cheek. She looked at her daughter with concern in her eyes.

"Hmm it seems you have a fever. Back to bed for you and i will bring you some juice and a hot water bottle." "Could you call the school and tell them she won't be in today?" she asked Thunder.
"Yeah sure. You gonna be ok with her?"
"Of course I will. You go to work."

When Lighting went into Indigos room she was back under her blankets shivering despite her temperature being sky high.
"Oh honey I know. Hears some nice cold juice and a hot water bottle just like I promised."
"Thanks mum." The sick teen croaked out.
"No problem love now get some sleep,I'll be downstairs if you need anything." And with that she left the room and turned the lights back off.

Indigo slept for the rest of the day and the whole night. She didn't even wake up for food and this worried her parents.
The next morning when Indigo woke up her throat hurt even more than it did the day before. She went downstairs to find her parents who were sat having the morning coffee.
"Hey honey. You feeling any better this morning?" Her father asked.
"No" she croaked and it sounded really painful.
Lighting just looked really worried. "Oh dear you sound worse than yesterday." She then put her hand back to Indigos forehead. "Your burning up I'm taking you to the doctors."

The doctor confirmed that Indigo had tonsillitis and she needed plenty of rest and fluids and she should be fine in a few days.
"So how is she?" Thunder asked his wife on the phone. Lightning explained everything and then drove back home.
By the time they'd gotten home Indigo had fallen asleep in the car. Lightning didn't want to wake her up so she asks thunder to come and help her get Indigo inside. Once they'd got inside Thunder put Indigo in her bed and covered her with the blankets and left her to get the rest she desperately needed.

Author's Note

I know its not good. I had tonsillitis over the weekend so I thought it would be a good idea.
