Michaels POV

This sucks. This really sucks. Those words kept running trough my mind as I thought of Claire.

I had lost her for good. Hitting her was the last thing I ever wanted to do. I never meant to hurt her. I just wish she knew that.

Driving back from losing her was the worst drive of my life. Going over the bridge she once tried to kill herself on. But who was there to save her? That's tight ME! Not Luke. Not her parents. ME!

Claire should be with me not Luke. He's not good enough for her.

As I got back to my mums place she seemed sad.

"What wrong?" I asked sitting down next to her.

"I'm dying." she said with a sorrowful face.

"What?" Was all I could say as tears filled my eyes.

"I have cancer. Stage 3 Thyroid. I have about two months to live. Im sorry." She started to cry and so did I.

After my father left us it's just been me and my mum and our bond has grown stronger than the Hover Dam. She was the best thing in my life and now I'm about to lose the best thing in my life. Could this day get.

"Why?" I asked tears running down my face. "Why do bad things happen to good people?" I cried.

There was a moment of silence before my mom continued, "Michael, I don't know, but I think God gives us what we can handle. Nothing more and nothing less. I think this makes us strong. A way for God to see if we are loyal to him and to continue asking for forgiveness even though the hard times."

It's been weeks and I still haven't heard from Claire. Should I call her? No. But I need to apologize. I can't. I can. Ugh! Mind, you're here to help me make decisions not make them harder.

Mums lost most of her hair not due to the Chemo. It makes me sad to see her have to go through this. But I remember one verse my mum use to tell me everyday when my strength is not visible.

"Every weakness is a opportunity for God to show his strength in your life" 2 Corinthians 12:9

Claire's POV

"Luke!" I screamed as he chased me around outside the mall.

"Stop!" I laughed.

"Neverrrrr!!" He said laughing.

Finally I felt him wrap his arms around my waist as he picked me up. I squealed and people were staring at us but I didn't care.

He threw me over his shoulder and started walking.

"Luke where are we going!" I yelled at him.

"A store." He said. I could practically hear the smirk on his voice.

"Can you at least put me down. I have legs you know." I said.

"Nope." He said popping the 'p'.

We walked and walked and walked, people stared and then we finally got to wherever he was going. He puts me down and I turn to see the worlds largest video game store. ALL THIS TIME IVE LIVED HERE, THE STORE WAS HERE?!!

"Lukeyyyy" I said drawing out the 'y' also because he hates being called Lukey. Then I ran in like a little kid in a toy store.
