The Sixth Ravenclaw Girl (Jelsa)

12: I need to.

Elsa's POV

So here I am. Sitting beside the sleeping Jackson.

I looked at him and studied him for a while.

He looks calm. He looks so good. He looks soft. And yet he declared that he'll die in 2 weeks. I need to know what's going on. Maybe Eugene and Kristoff knows what's happening to Jack.

I stand up from the bed, ready to leave but a cold bare hands hold my hands, and I looked back.

Eyes still closed, breathing is normal, he speaks, "Stay. Where are you going?" He said with a soft caring voice.

I sat back down at the bed and I moved closer to him.

"I... I just need to know what's going on. What are you talking about, Jack? You have 2 weeks to live? What?"

His eyes opened slowly and his Ocean blue eyes looked at me. He sighed and he put his left arm over his head, covering his eyes.

"I.... I had an illness that I am carrying for a long time." I looked at him, focused, ready to pick up and listen to whatever he's going to say.  "Doctors and nurses told me that... Its already too late. The cancer cells already reproduced at my normal cells. Now, it's every where. In 2 weeks, I'll die."

I can't believe I'm listening to this. I can't believe this is happening.

"Please..." He holds my hand and I looked at it. Then, I looked at Jackson. "Cancer is not a communicable disease. I have no one to tell. Eugene and Kristoff didn't know about this. No one, except you."

"Jack..."

"It pains for me to ask you this but, Will you stay beside me for 2 weeks, and take care of me before I leave?"

Two weeks. That's all the time that I ever had. After that two weeks, he's gone. No one's gonna look for me, no one's gonna piss me off, no one's gonna tell me that he misses me, that he love me, no one.

But... I... This is so unrealistic.
I can't believe this.

"Babe..." He said alarmed and he quickly sat down beside me and he put his hands on my cheeks.

"W-What?"

"You're... You're crying."

I am?

Am I crying?

No but... Yes... I felt the hot liquid flowing down my cheeks.

I just can't take this anymore.
Dying is different. When you die, you can't take your live once again. If you die, you can't do anything.

"Look, if you don't want to do this, It's fine with me, Els--"

"I have only 2 weeks to spend with you. Do you think I would miss one day, just one day on your last 2 weeks? No. So lay down and I'll sleep with you right now. You need rest, mister. No buts, lay down. Now."

I lay down first, and I wiped my tears. Jack just stared at me and I glared at him.

"I said, lay down!"

"Fine, fine, fine, I'll lay down, your highness." He said and he lay down beside me. He took my hand and he pulled me closer to his chest.

He grabbed his blanket and he covered us with it. I hugged him.

I know. I know that I've said that i hate him, that I despise him that I wish he just die. But, this is serious now. He'll really die in just 2 weeks. I can't stop it, I can't tell the cancer cells to stop reproducing and stuffs.

But.... We're in Hogwarts.

Nothing's impossible in magic.

I'll tell the nurses if they had a cure for cancer. If they don't, I'll check out the muggles hospital.
