"Go Fish!" Farkle yelled, slamming his cards down.

"Farkle we are playing Shanghai Rummy not Go Fish," Maya explained, hitting the back of his head.

"You thought we were playing Go Fish this whole time?" I asked.

Farkle dropped his cards down on the table, "Well this is awkward."

"Hey does anyone else remember when he used to be smart?" Maya asked.

"Hello I still am smart," Farkle chimed.

Lucas scoffed, "You locked yourself out of our apartment in your underwear last week."

"Hey! You weren't supposed to tell anyone about that!" Farkle yelled.

"Ops," Lucas replied.

"I can't believe you locked yourself out of your apartment," I laughed.

Everyone laughed and put down their cards on the table.

"Does anyone want another slice of pizza?" Maya asked.

She walked over to the counter and pulled out another piece of pizza.

"Eating pizza makes me miss home," Maya mumbled.

"Hey we are doing home for the premiere in a couple days," I said.

Lucas stood up and gave Maya a kiss on her forehead, "And we get to visit everyone else at home."

After the boys went back over to their apartment I got into the shower. Maya was in her room watching some movie that Daisy started in, before falling asleep.

My phone began ringing across the room. I picked it up and saw my dads name pop up on the screen.

"Hey Dad."

"How are you doing Riley?"

"Good. How are you and mom."

"I'm good and so is your mother. How's Maya doing?"

I slide the balcony door open to our apartment so that Maya wouldn't hear anything that was about to come up.

"She's doing well. In fact just last week she auditioned for a movie that Daisy from Forever Young is going to be in."

"That's amazing. When does she know if she got the part?"

"They told her they would let her know by the end of the month."

"Yeah. She said that the girls running the audition really liked her so I'm pretty sure she will get the part in the movie."

The line went quiet and the only thing I could hear was my dad breathing in and out. His breathing sounded worried.

"Dad is something wrong?" I asked.

"Uhh yeah. I didn't call you so that I could ask how you were doing."

"Why did you call me then?"

"I revived a call from one of Shawn's doctors an hour ago."

This couldn't be good.

"I think it's best that you and everyone else get to New York as fast as possible."

"How much time does he have?"

"They told me about three weeks."

Some of you are probably thinking hasn't Shawn been almost dying for the last couple chapter? Yes because that's what happens.
