Back in her room, her throat hurt. She also felt dizzy and queasy. She lay down to rest but ended up falling asleep right away.
In her dream, she felt a huge fire burning in her chest. It was unbearable. She tried to put out the fire by looking for water, but none was found.

Don't risk getting sick..." But Blake was determined to stay. "What does it matter if I look after you? I'm not worried about catching anything. What are you worried about?" Rosalie got upset and pushed him away. "Do you think this is a joke, getting infected?"
