"Beep. Beep. Beep." The steady sound of the heart monitor was the first sound Ashley heard as she woke up. The sunlight hit her eyes and she tried to block it with her hand but noticed she had so many wires and medical equipment around her she couldn't hardly move!
"Mum?" Ashley called; no one answered. "TILLY? MUM?!" She called, shouting even. She heard footsteps coming towards her 'room' and before she knew it her mums arms were flung around her.
"Oh Ashley we didn't think you were going to wake up!!" Her mum said to her.
"Wait what?" Ashley asked as Tilly took her hand. A couple of doctors walked in sitting next to Ashley. Even her mum and Tilly looked as if they didn't know what was going on.
"Mrs. Chads is it?" The doctors asked Tillys mum. She nodded.
"Right. We have ran some scans on your daughter and she is free to go home, and only home, this afternoon." The doctor half smiled.
"Thats great!" Ashleys mum beamed.
"But that isn't all we found." The other doctor sighed as Ashley, her mum and Tillys faces dropped. "According to our tests, Ashley , you have an estimated 3-4months left to live , I'm so sorry."
"W-what?" Ashley asked with tears building in her eyes. "You mean I'm most likely going to die?" Ashley asked as her mum broke down in front of her.
"No no no no " Tilly said as she paced around the room.
"You must've got something wrong! I mean I feel fine!" Ashley shouted.
"Our tests are around 89% accurate and are right 90% of the time. Again I'm so sorry." One of the doctors said. "Mrs. Chads and Miss. Armot will have to come with us. Ashley you need to rest" The doctor said as the other led Tilly and Sara (Ashleys mum) out of the room leaving Ashley in her room which felt more like a cell.
Ashleys pov
This can't be happening. No it can't it just can't. I can't die at 20. It doesn't make sense.
There are nurses saying how sorry they are every five minutes, some of them even ask me what I want to do before I die. Do they mean like a bucket list? It will have to be pretty short if I want to do it within 3-4months!
I can do it though, make a bucket list I mean. It can't be that hard, I'll just put 5 things I've always wanted to do. But right now I think I should rest. I can do it later.
Tillys pov
After about 2 hours of filling out forms, looking after Sara and getting food, I still haven't wrapped my head around what's going on . Ashley. Is. Going. To. Die. I need to talk to her now. Make sure she is okay.
I walked into to Ashleys room only to find her sleeping. It was such a peaceful sight. It bought a tear to my eye knowing in a few months this sight might be gone. I didn't just notice her sleeping but a piece of paper next to her. It read:
---------
Ashleys Bucket List!!
1. Meet someone famous!
2. Make a youtube video about my life!
3. Fly to Australia!
4. Learn how to dance!
5. Find Jay Worther and tell him I've always loved him.
---------
I loved them all, but one in particular caught my eye.
"5. Find Jay Worther and tell him I've always loved him."
I remember Jay from high school, he was about two years older than us and he was proper cute. I never loved him but I guess Ashley did!
I loved my best friend and if this is what it takes to make her happy then I will find this boy!
