Me and Max were exiting the hospital. I have had 2 treatments and both have not worked, so that was all a waist of money. It has been a really long 2 weeks in this hell hole people call a hospital.
Max helped me into the car and he helping me put my mobile oxygen tank in with me.
Max hopped in the drivers seat.
"Max..." I said shying.
"Yes sweet heart?" I love it when Max calls me that.
"I wanna make the most of this year that I have left with you. I don't want it to be waisted by just sitting on the couch watching TV day in and day out. You know what I mean Max?" I said looking over to him to see if he was listening.
"Yeah I know what you mean." Max said. We both had a moment of silence, we were both thinking of ideas. Then all of a sudden.
"I have an idea!" Max said with such excitement.
"What is it?" I asked. Max sped up the car to get home quicker.
"Just wait up till we get home!" Max said with a smug look on his face.
"Ok, if you say so." I said as I just glared at max all the way home.
I was feeling pretty depressed before all of this but Max knows how to get my mind off things and put a smile on my face in any type of situation.We arrived home and Max came around and helped me with the oxygen tank and we walked into the house.
"Oh it's so nice to be back home!" I said with a smile on my face as I look around the house to make sure everything was ok.
"Ok so you Gabby Smith will sit right here." Max said as he pulled a seat out from under the dinning table.
"Ok" I said as I watched Max run up stairs.
It was only a few minutes and then Max came running back down the stairs and in is hand was a piece of paper and some colour pens.
"Ok what your going to do is write all the things you ever want to do! Like go to Disney Land or something like that ok?" Max said as he handed me the paper and pens.
"Ok!" I said as I sat there thinking what I was going to write.
"I'll leave you with that and that piece of paper is just between you! I will just tag along to what ever you want to do! ok!" Max said as he walked over into the living room and watched TV.
I was thinking to myself, what on earth am I going to write on this little piece of paper.
"Ah I know!" I said to myself. I looked to make sure Max didn't hear me. I didn't see him turn around so I'm pretty sure he didn't.
I was writing things down for the rest of the night I ended up falling asleep on table.
Max's P.O.V
I finished my movie and I checked to see what Gabby was up to. She has been pretty quite since I left her to write down her list of thing to do.
I walked into the dinning room and saw her asleep on the table. I walked up stairs and got a small pillow and a blanket from the bedroom and walked back down.
I ever so slowly put the pillow under her head and she didn't even twitch so she must be really tired. Then I wrapped the blanket over her and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"I love you." I whispered to her. Then I went into the cupboard under the staircase and got another blanket and pillow and sat the pillow on the floor.
Then I sat down on the floor and put the blanket over me and fell asleep right by her side.
