Rebecca:
"Elliot." I said quickly, making him laugh.

Parker:
"Glad that's settled."

Rebecca:
I laid on the bed, a tired and miserable Rebecca in my arms. Parker had given her medicine and put gel on her mouth to try and make it feel better, but I got the impression that it didn't do much.

Rebecc:
"Is it weird to say I missed the smell of your hoodies?" She laughed lightly, letting me take my arm from under her head. Her laugh quickly turned into a cough.

Elliot:
"I've heard weirder things from you, your alright?" She sighed and closed her eyes, putting her arm over me.
"Why don't you go to sleep? Tomorrow is a whole new day and we can do something fun." I suggested, kissing her head and pulling her closer to my chest. Within
minutes, she was out.

Parker:
"Her reaction earlier was one of the cutest, but heartbreaking things ever." Parker said, putting his phone down.

Robert:
"Bless her, I can't imagine being in her position." Robert said, frowning.

Rebecca:
She really was a fighter. After everything that had already happened, moving away to strangers in a different country wouldn't exactly appeal to me either.

Elliot:
"I wouldn't be able to do that. I wouldn't be able to lose the people who cared about me most, and just leave to somewhere that you could die without them." I said, kissing her head lightly when she stirred. Could anyone? Sure, she'd physically done it but mentally, it was like a war for her.

Parker:
"Can we take her to a theme park?" Parker blurted out, making me laugh lightly.

Elliot:
"I don't think her body is strong enough, she'll get tired."

Parker:
"But guys, we don't know when or if we are gonna see her again." He said honestly, "I promised I'd take her."

Elliot:
"I mean, if we get fast pass..." I mumbled, frowning as Rebecca started to wake up. She groaned and hit her head on my chest, grabbing onto my shirt. "I've got you, go back to sleep." I whispered, rubbing her back gently. She rubbed her eyes and whined again.

Rebecca:
"I'm tired."

Parker:
"That's why you need to go to sleep Rebecca." Parker laughed, digging through his bag. He pulled out an old bear and brought him over, balancing him on her head. "Is Mr.Fluffy's service required?"

Elliot:
She simply nodded and grabbed it, putting her head in my chest again.

Robert:
"Is that your bear or her bear?" Robert teased, taking a photo of her curled up. She did look adorable.

Parker:
"Her bear. She always used to bring him every time she had to see me."

Elliot:
"Then why do you have it?" I chuckled.

Parker:
"Her brother used to make fun of her so she asked me to keep him... don't say anything about it please."

Robert:
"We won't... when could we go to the theme park anyway?" Robert asked.

Parker:
"We should probably go next week. We don't want to tire her out for Friday so maybe next Monday or Tuesday?"

Elliot:
"Sounds like a plan." I yawned, climbing under the covers and hugging Rebecca again before she woke up. "Night guys." I mumbled. I woke up pretty early, the sun barely coming through the blinds and Luke snoring loudly. Rebecca wasn't in the bed. The bathroom door was slightly open and the light was on- I knocked quietly on the door. When I had no response, I opened the door and bumped into a teary-eyed Rebecca. "What's wrong?" I asked, placing my hand on her shoulder. She flinched and stepped back.
