I sighed as I leaned against my wall. It was the second day of summer and I was already bored. I walked to my closet and pulled out a box that was in the way back. I sat on the floor with it. I began to go through it. I smiled as I pulled out my old dance clothes from when I was like seven. I'm pretty sure every girl when they were young at least did dance for a little bit. I pulled out my 1st place soccer trophy from when I was 10. I noticed that dust had collected on it. I tried to wipe it off but it all went to my nose. "Ahhhh chooooo!" I wiped my nose and sighed. At the bottom of the box was an old photo album. It had been a while since I had looked at it. I opened it and smiled at all the pictures. I lightly touched them taking them all in. The good memories from when I was younger. There was a picture of my mother and father when he was alive. My father died when I was eight years old. I guess you could say I was a strong kid then. I still am, I thought to myself. I flipped a couple of pages and saw some pictures of kids. I read the writing at the bottom of the page. 'Autumn and Ezra age 5' I smiled. Me and Ezra were like two peas in a pod when we were younger and we still are. Then I felt my phone vibrate. It was a text from Ezra. ~Where are you at?~ My eyes grew big as I looked at the time. I was suppose to meet Ezra at the river front down town at 9. I quickly placed everything back in the box and put it back in my closet for when the next time I get bored. I looked in the mirror and ran my fingers through my blond hair. I slid my flip flops on and grabbed my car keys. I placed my phone on my back pocket. Then I was headed down the stairs. "Honey make sure you are back by 12!" My mom yelled out the door. By the time I heard her I was already in my car. The car was hot and steamy because it had been sitting in the sun all day. I jumped in and turned up the radio. T swift had been on the radio for the past two days! Here songs were getting pretty popular. I pulled out of my driveway and headed towards the river front. Really should have walked but I am really lazy. Literally the river front is like five minutes away. I pulled in the parking lot and parked. Ezra was sitting on the bench looking out onto the water. All I could do was sit there and smile. I began to walk in the wooden dock that had to be at least 100 years old. "Hey... Sorry I almost forgot!" I laughed and took a seat beside him looking where he was looking before. His face was very red. He was usually the playful and joke type when he saw me. He was very serious right now. Me and Ezra have know each other since we were two. We literally did everything as a kid and including now. There was nobody else that I would rather spend time with. A couple years ago Ezra was struck hard. He found out that he had cancer. Osteosarcoma was what the doctors said it was. Ezra looked at me and smiled slightly. Then I felt his arm around me. I smiled. "What is it?" He looked at me and then to the water. "Just thank you for always being there for me these past couple of years. It really means a lot June." He smiled and stood up holding onto the railing and turning to face me. His smiled disappeared and he looked at me with a worried face. "I went to the hospital today, you know for my monthly checkup.... And they found more tumors...." He could barley look at me. I watched as he tried to keep his tears back. "Ezra....." That was all that came out of my mouth. Why in the world would you just say that! Autumn stand up do something! MOVE! I stood up and wrapped my arms around him giving him a hug and began to speak. "I promise you this... It will go away... You will be better in no time. The doctors will get rid of it." I slowly let go of him. He smiled down at me. He laid his hand lightly on my cheek. He leaned down and kissed my lips gently. (Did I forget to mention that me and Ezra were dating? Oooopppss) I kissed him back, I wanted to let him know that everything was going to be okay. That he had nothing to worry about.
