NEXT DAY

"Hey, my baby." Scarlett whispered, relieved to see Y/N opening her eyes.

Y/N smiles weakly, "H-Hey, my love."

Scarlett didn't sleep because she was scared that her girlfriend would die in her sleep and she wouldn't be awake to hold her hand. So, she stayed up and held her girlfriend's hand. And seeing Y/N's eyes now makes her happy and relieved.

But she knows Y/N doesn't have more time. She can see it. The life is slowly leaving Y/N's eyes. She's really pale and her voice is weak. This scares her because she thinks that she will spend the night without Y/N in her arms.

"I-I think," Y/N coughed. "I think I'll be gone... at any time now." She said.

"Sh," Scarlett shushed, shaking her head. "Don't say that, baby. I'm gonna see you tomorrow, we will spend more time, okay? We still have a few weeks, baby."

Y/N just smiled weakly and nodded her head. "But in case," She held Scarlett's hand, and she kissed the back of it. "Can you call Lizzie? And call Y/S/N too, tell them my condition right now, and tell them that I love them very much." She said "Oh, and if Y/S/N insisted on coming here, tell her not to because she needs to stay there. Same goes with Lizzie, I know she's still out of town. Just... tell them that it's fine and I'm happy here with you."

"Baby..." Scarlett frowned.

"Please, I don't want to talk much, my throat hurts." Y/N said, smiling. "Just do that for me, and cook me breakfast while doing so, please. I'm hungry."

Scarlett sighed and nodded her head, "Okay. I'll be back as soon as possible. I love you, stay here." She said and kissed Y/N's head.

"Not going anywhere, baby." Y/N said and chuckled. "I love you."

Scarlett just smiled, she grabbed her phone and walked out of the room. She immediately called the rehabilitation center and asked for Y/S/N.

"Scarlett? Is everything okay? Where's my baby sister? Is she okay?" Y/S/N asked questions after questions.

"It's not looking good." Scarlett said, sighing. She walked towards the kitchen and started preparing to cook breakfast for her and Y/N.

"What's happening? Can I talk to her?" Y/S/N asked.

"She told me to call you, she doesn't wanna talk because her throat hurts." Scarlett said. "I hate to say this but I think it's time. Her health is not getting any better, it's getting worse."

"I'm coming there, where are you?" Y/S/N asked.

"No," Scarlett said and sighed. "I'm so sorry, but Y/N said that you need to stay there. And she'll be fine and she's happy here."

"Fuck," Y/S/N mumbled, already crying. "I can't even see my sister?"

"I'm so sorry, Y/S/N." Scarlett whispered.

"It's okay," Y/S/N said, sniffling. "Just take care of her and make her the happiest."

"Of course." Scarlett said. "I gotta go and call her best friend, I'll talk to you soon."

"Okay, tell Y/N that I love her so much." Y/S/N said with a shaky breath.

"I will. She loves you too, Y/S/N. She loves you very much." Scarlett said.

"Bye, Scarlett." Y/S/N said.

"Bye." Scarlett whispered and ended the call.

As soon as she ended the call, she broke down. But she covered her mouth to muffle her cries, she doesn't want Y/N to hear her crying. She licked her lips and wiped her tears, then she dialed Elizabeth's number.

"Scar?" Elizabeth spoke. "Everything okay? How's Y/N?"

"Not good," Scarlett said, her voice breaking. "It's not looking good, Lizzie." She added and sobbed.

"W-What? She still has a few weeks, Scar. What are you talking about?" Elizabeth said and Scarlett can hear her crying.

"I thought so too," Scarlett said. "But she's really weak right now and so pale. And her eyes doesn't shine anymore. I'm so scared, Lizzie."

"No, this can't be happening." Elizabeth said. "Where are you? I'm coming."

"She doesn't want you to, she said the same thing about her sister." Scarlett said. "She just wanted me to call you to tell you that she'll be fine and she's happy here. And she also said that she loves you very much. And I'm sorry that I can't put her on the phone, she said her throat hurts and she doesn't want to speak."

"This is not happening." Elizabeth said, her voice shaky.

"I'm so sorry." Scarlett said, crying. "But I think today might be her last day."

Elizabeth sobbed.

"I-I gotta go and make her some food, Lizzie. I'll talk to you later." Scarlett said.

"Tell her that I love her, I love her so much." Elizabeth said, "Please hug her for me."

"I-I will," Scarlett said. "Bye, Lizzie."

"Bye, Scar." Elizabeth whispered before the call ended.

— after making her calls and cooking breakfast for her girlfriend, Scarlett went back to the room with the food.

As soon as she stepped inside the room, her heart stopped upon seeing Y/N's eyes closed. She put the tray on the bedside table and sat down on the bed, and she sighs in relief when she saw Y/N's chest rising up and down.

Y/N's just sleeping.

Oh god, I don't want her to leave. Scarlett thought, watching her girlfriend sleeping. She knows this will break her into pieces.

"Y/N?" Scarlett whispered, caressing Y/N's cheek. "Wake up, baby. Let's eat breakfast."

Y/N hummed and slowly opened her eyes. She smiles weakly and nodded her head, "Can we go outside later? We can't Bungee Jump, but I think we can watch the sunset."

Scarlett smiles and nodded her head. "Of course, my love. We'll watch the sunset later." She said.

Y/N just smiled and nodded her head.
