Mark said "okay." He was in the tub but his temperature kept the same. Mark began to feel even worse and he began to fight back tears. Mark's temperature went higher as he began to feel even worse. Mark ask "what's happening? Why am I burning up?" Mark was not sure what was happening at all. Mark look at her as he was in fear. (Sorry it's short.)

"It's alright, baby. I'm not sure what's happening but we'll figure it out. It'll be okay," Andrea said as she got out and dried off and put clothes on before getting him out and draining the tub as she helped him get dressed. "I'm going to take you to the hospital. I'll call Lawrence when we get there. You'll be okay, I promise to not let anything happen to you," Andrea said as she signed to Bruce that she was taking his father to the hospital and Lawrence will be here in a little while and to not answer the door for anyone as only Lawrence has the key. He nodded and Andrea picked Mark up and got him into the car and drove to the hospital and once they got there she explained the situation and they took him back to get his temperature down and figure out the problem. Meanwhile, Andrea waited in his recovery room and called Lawrence to see if he could stay with Bruce until they got home.

Lawrence had answered his phone and he agreed to stay with Bruce until they could come back home. Lawrence told Sadie what had happened and he went to Mark's house to stay with Bruce. Mark was fighting back tears as it was hurting and everything was spinning. Mark was scared and he was afraid that something bad was going to happen. Mark had a fear that something was going to happen next and he did not want it to be anything bad. Mark felt tried but he stayed awake as he was scared of what was going to happen next. Mark was just wishing that it was nothing serious.

After Andrea had ended her phone call the doctor came in and explained the situation. Mark had what was called a Intracranial Hemorrhage, most like from an accident or trauma to the brain. They stopped the bleeding though and he's okay and they're just bringing down his temperature now. Andrea was relieved that he was okay but explained to the doctor that he injured his head the other day when he hit his nightstand and fell and has been having trouble standing and is a little weak. The doctor noted that and said that that would explain the bleeding and how the bleeding brought up his temperature from putting pressure against his body temperature regulator in his brain. The doctor said that he'll be in in a little bit and that he'll be okay and she can take him home once he's ready to. Andrea thanked him and sat back down as she waited for Mark.

Mark's temperature began to go down and he was thankful if that. Mark began to feel like his normal self but he was worried that he did something wrong and he wanted Andrea. Mark was wanting to make sure that she was okay. One of nurses went to Andrea and said that Mark was wanting her. The nurse took Andrea where Mark was and he was happy to see Andrea. Mark said "hey beautiful." He was happy and he seem like his normal self. Mark was wanting to go home already. Mark reached his arms up for a hug since he had been feeling guilty for making Andrea worry.

Andrea heard the nurse come in and explain that Mark wanted to see her. She went with the nurse to where Mark was and smiled when she saw him. "Hi, love," Andrea said as she looked at him. The nurse said that he was okay to hug and do all of that, but that he should be on bed rest for the next day just to make sure his temperature doesn't go up again. Andrea nodded and gave Mark a hug when she saw him reach up for her. She nuzzled her head against his chest as she missed him and was glad he was okay. "Let's get you home," Andrea said as she made the call to Lawrence that they were on their way home so he was free to leave. Andrea picked Mark up and thanked the nurses and doctors before leaving and bringing Mark to the car. She was quiet as they drove home since she was tired and wanted to get home before she passed out again. She got them home and picked Mark up again and brought him inside and locked the door and closed it behind her and then brought him right upstairs, changed him into his pyjamas and got him under the covers. Andrea put her pyjamas too and brushed her short hair back with her hand from worry and stress about Mark, but it was okay because she just wanted to make sure he was okay. Andrea got under the covers and had his head on her chest and his arms wrapped around her so he could sleep. By the time she got him comfortable she fell right asleep into a deep sleep.

Lawrence heard them and he left so that they could sleep without worrying. Mark felt super guilty for making Andrea worry about him and he wanted to do something nice for her. Mark began to fall asleep as he was tried and his body needed to help get rid of the overheated temperature. Mark knew he was safe since he knew that Andrea had him. Mark slept until the morning but he was waking up and he decided just to spend the day sleeping to help fight the temperature since he wanted to be healthy and do things with Andrea. Mark look at Andrea and he felt lucky to have her in his life.

Andrea slept peacefully through the rest of the night and continued to sleep through the morning. She woke up when she heard Bruce throwing up and stretched awake. "I'll be back with some breakfast for you," Andrea said and got up from the bed and went to Bruce first to stay with him until he stopped throwing up, which he did after a half an hour. She got him comfortable in bed and brought his trash can to the side of his bed. Then she went downstairs and made Mark breakfast and brought it up to him on a tray. "I'm back with your breakfast," Andrea said as she sat down on the bed so she could feed him.

Mark heard Andrea and he said "thank you." He was thankful but he was still a little weak. Mark was feeling guilty that she had to help him eat and he was just hoping that everything would be okay. Mark said "thank you for helping me with eating." He was glad that she was there with him but he was slowly feeling better. Mark look at the wall as he was feeling a little tired but he was staying awake for Andrea. Mark ask "how long do I have to stay in bed?" He had heard the doctor saying that he had to be on bed rest. Mark was not sure how long he would have to be on bed rest for.

"Of course. And you can go right back to sleep afterwards. The doctor said you have to be on bed rest for at least today but I'm going to have you on bed rest tomorrow too just to make sure you're fully back to your normal self. I want to make sure you're okay," Andrea explained as she fed him and then when she was done she brought the dishes downstairs and put them where they had to go. She went upstairs to their room and got back in bed and laid down again and him cuddled up on her with his head on her chest and his arms wrapped around her. She had her arms wrapped around him too to make sure he feels safe. She would stay awake for him just in case he needed her. "You can sleep, love. I'm right here and I won't leave your side," Andrea whispered softly to him.
