Save Me Not! (Book 1)

8- Not So Safe And Sound!

(Kylee POV)
After all the arguing at the house and Drew finding out I had cancer, I just couldn't take being in the house anymore I just had to go somewhere, anywhere. I sneak down the hall and see Carter's keys laying in the counter so I grab them and quickly make my way out the door, closing it quickly behind me not wanting to alert anyone that I'm leaving. I crank the car and begin to drive I really didn't know where I was going I just knew I had to go somewhere and clear my head. I pull into the hospital where my brother was and it was then I realized I just didn't need to get away for awhile but I also needed to see Tyler since has been awhile since I have been able to come up here.

I walk into Tyler's room and see him still laying in his bed with wires and tubes all over him. I pull a chair up next to me I his bed so that I could be close to him. "Hey man how have you been doing, I hope they have been taking care of you," I say to him knowing I wouldn't get a response but I just needed to talk to him anyway. "So I went to the doctor and he told me I'm sick Tyler, and I just don't know if I should fight it or not since mom and dad are gone and if you don't wake up then maybe I should just let the cancer kill me at least then I would be able to be with my family again," I tell him as tears spill down my face as I lay my head next to his hand that I was holding. I started thinking back to how my life was before the accident changed it, and what I wouldn't give to have it back to the way it was.

I don't know how long I had been sleeping in Tyler's room, but I was woken up by voices it the room. I raise my head up to see Aunt Sarah talking to Tyler doctor just outside the room. I could really make out what they were saying because they were talking so low, but as I make my way to the door were they wore they stopped talking. "What's going on and Aunt Sarah how did you know I was here," I ask her curiously. "Sweet heart everything's ok, but we need to be getting you back home," she says to me trying to be overly kind. "They told you didn't they," I ask her referring to the cancer. "Yes, Carter told me," she says as she looks at the floor. "Kylee I just don't understand why you hid it from me, so you realize how serious cancer is," she says looking hurt. "I'm sorry I just don't want anyone to force me to do anything I don't want to do," I say honestly. "What do you mean Kylee, no one has forced you to do anything." She says as she pulls me into her arms. "I just don't know if I want to fight this," I say fighting back the tears in my eyes. "Kylee you have to fight because you have a brother that is going to need you when he wakes up," she says to me trying to convince me that I need treatment. "Can I just have a little more time to process all this?" I beg her. "Sure sweetie just don't take to long because the sooner we start treatments, better the chance of you going into remission," she says as she looks me in my eyes. I didn't say anything back instead I just shook my head yes. "I also want to tell you you will not longer have to drive here to see your brother," she says causing me to look at her in confusion. "I'm having him transferred to the hospital closer to us," she tells me happily. "That's awesome, thank you," I tell her giving her a big hug.

After making it home I decided to go to my room still not ready to face Drew or Carter after what went down earlier. I pick up the phone to call Olivia hoping she would come stay the night so that I could feel her in on all that wheat down at the party. I dial her number and after two rings she picked up. "Kylee I'm so glad you called," she says excitedly into the phone. "Hey can you come stay with me tonight?" I asked her hoping she would say yes. "I would love to let me go ask my mom and I call you right back," she says before hanging up the phone. I throw myself on my bed as I wait for her to call back. I pull up the missed text on my phone to see that I had five text all from Mark.
Mark: Kylee I'm sorry she doesn't mean anything I made a mistake.
Mark: Kylee come on give my another chance.
Mark: Kylee don't be this way.
Mark: Can I please come over so we can talk.
Mark: You can't avoid me forever.
Me: Mark it's over so stop texting me, I never want to see you again.
After texting him back I block his number so that her could bother me anymore. After a few minutes my phone began to ring. "Hey, so can you stay or not?" I ask as I answer the phone knowing it was Olivia. "She said yes so I'm on my way now is it cool if I just borrow some of your clothes because I don't want to take the time to pack," she ask. "Yeah sure just hurry up and get your but here," I say giggling at her asking me to borrow my stuff boing she would have done it anyway of I had said no. After hanging up the phone I run to go tell Aunt Sarah that Olivia was coming to stay, even though I knew she wouldn't care.
