Alex's POV
I looked at my doctor. "I'm sorry Alex. You're not getting better. You only have about three months left. The cancer has become too strong."
My husband of two years, Jack, started crying. "Can we still do chemo?"
"Yeah. It's only a 1% chance that it'll work. You'll have to be hospitalised also."
"Okay." The doctor left.
"Alex, are you sure?" Jack asked me. I looked at him.
"I'm not giving up. I'm staying for you. And if I don't make it, I'm still gonna love you and watch over you. I'm gonna do whatever it takes."
"You're my fighter, Alex."
"Do we still have enough money?" I asked.
"Yes, Lex. Your parents have paid for the medical bills and I have saved up money."
"I forgot my parents were really rich." I whispered.
"We got you a room. Room 477 on the fourth floor. You can only have one visitor and you need to fill this out. I will show you to your room."
Jack stood and helped me up. He picked me up and smiled. He carried me to my room and I leaned my head on his shoulder. He laid me down on the hospital bed and took the paper from the doctor.
"I'll be back in a couple minutes." the doctor left.
"Come cuddle, Jacky." He laid down beside me and I cuddled into him.
"How long have you had cancer?"
"A year." I whispered.

I was one month in and I hate it. They kill me with chemo. See, they can constantly do chemo because it's not like it was in 2015 and such. It's 2045 and I'm 20 so don't think I'm old. But they had these pills that don't make my hair fall out so that's good.
Jack hasn't left since I got here. He sleeps here, eats here, showers here. With me of course. He's currently asleep, but I'm reading. I've been doing that a lot.
Jack tried to have sex with me also. Yeah. I wasn't feeling good so it didn't happen. He's becoming sex deprived. I try, but it's hard. I'm always tired or sick.
"Lexi." He groaned.
"Yeah Jack?" I replied.
"I'm horny."
"Babe, come here." I scooted over and he laid beside me. I wrapped my arms around him and he accepted my cuddles. "As soon as I am out of this damn place, we'll do something."
"But, the doctor-"
"The doctor is wrong. I can make it through. I'm not giving up. We've only been married two years. It's not going to kill me."
He smiled and laid his head on my chest. He cried into my chest and I ran my hand through his hair. I kissed his head and I felt tears run down my cheeks. The nurse came in and looked at me sadly. She checked my stats and then left.
"Jack." I whispered. He lifted his head and I kissed him. My lips were dry and cracked, but his were soft. He kissed back and ran his hand through my hair. "Baby, I love you."
"I love you, too."
~~third month
I sat on my bed, feeling better than ever. My doctor walked in. "Alex. This is really hard to say." My face dropped and Jack tightened his grip on my hand. "You're cancer free."
"Oh my gosh." Jack pulled me into a hug and I hugged back.
"I told you I would make it."
"Just take it easy for the next week. Your body is still a little weak. Try to limit your walking. Eat regularly and no sex for the week." The doctor replied. "Sorry Jack."
"I don't care. My Alex is cancer free."
I got up and he grabbed my hand. I smiled. "I just need you to sign these release forms and you can be on your way." Jack signed them and then the doctor left.
Jack picked me up bridal style and carried me to the car.

"Ah, fu.ck." Jack moaned as he pounded into me. I pulled his hair and screamed in pleasure. "Fu.ck, Lexi, you're so tight."
"Jack, harder." I moaned. He complied and I moaned. I wrapped my legs around his waist. "You're so big, Jack." He smirked and kissed my neck. I arched my back as he hit that one spot that made me see stars. "Jacky." I moaned.
I came onto our stomachs and he kept pounding into my sensitive body. "Sh.it Alex. I'm gonna-" He moaned and came inside me. He pulled out and laid beside me. I caught my breath and then cuddled into him.
We laid in silence and he started playing with my hair. "I love you."
"I love you, too, Alex. I'm so happy you aren't sick anymore."
