I woke up in the hospital. But I didn't know it was a hospital. It was a bright room, honestly I thought I was dead. But then I heard. "Well look who's up." My dad was standing at the end on my bed. "What happened?" "You haven't taking your medication. The same medication that stops you from passing out like you used to." The doctor walks in. "Ms. Maxwell. You could have seriously hurt yourself." "I know." "Your lucky that you just passed out, you could have done so many worse things." "I know." "Mr and Mrs. Maxwell, may I talk to you in the hall?" "Yes of course." My mom looks at me. "Peach just relax in here." They walk out to the hall and close the door.
"Your daughter didn't do any damage to her body by not taking her medication. But I'm afraid that, the cancer has spread to her spleen." "What? They said it would never spread." "Mr. Maxwell, your daughter's cancer is spreading, but only a little. Not enough to make her tired or worn out, I would suggest not telling her." "What?" "It will only make her worried and she will why stressed. That's not good for her condition. So come back a few weeks and if it has spread more, then we will tell her." "Willa, we can't keep this from her. She is already mad at you everyday, this could make never want to talk to us again." "Joe our daughter is finally happy, and she has everything she wants. We can not ruin it." "Fine." "Well your daughter has a lot of people waiting for her in the waiting room, who would she like to see first?" "I think I know."
The door opens, and Blake walks in. "What do you want?" "Your still mad?" "No I'm still pissed. You lied to me, for months." "I didn't lie. I just didn't tell you about the bet." "Did you ever like me?" "Yes. Maybe not at first but when I got to know you, I realized that, I'm in love with you." "I don't think I believe you." "How bout now?" He leaned in and kissed me. "I will give you another chance." "Good, cause it's almost Christmas, and no one likes me single on Christmas." "Oh are you gonna get me shoes?" "Very funny."
I don't know why I gave him another chance. But I do know that I love him too. And I want him. So he has my trust but, do I have his? Doctor said I can go back to school tomorrow, but I have to take my meds. I get ready for bed but then. "So after what I told you, you're just gonna give him another chance?" I turn around to once again see Seb. "I get it Seb, your in love with me but, the kiss was a mistake, we were a mistake. So you have a good life with Gigi, I will have a good life with Blake." "I actually do like Gigi, she's a great girlfriend." "So is Blake. But a good boyfriend, not girlfriend." "He might as well be a girlfriend." I laughed. "See that, that smile is one I never see you make around him, so I don't care what you say, I'm better." "Yeah I'm sure you are now get out before I push you out the window." "Of course." He climbs out the window.
I will say being able to just sleep all day was very nice. I got to school and I hear a bunch of yelling down the halls. I run there. "So what are you doing in my girlfriend's bedroom?" "What do you think?" "Wow wow. Blake don't think that, that is not what we were doing. Seb was just making sure I was okay." "Yeah making sure her lips were okay. Your girlfriends a great kisser." "Sebastian!" "Your an ass." He swings out and punches Seb right in the face. "Seb!"
