Tara POV:

When i finally found parking (why did i drive?!) i walked into the starbucks. I ordered my drink, a venti iced peach green tea, I sat at a table and waited for Luke. And waited, and waited, and waited. I checked my clock it was 3:45, my drink was gone, and i look like a total fool. I have a doctors visit at 415 and i have no more time nor do i have the patients to wait. I got up, fixed my outfit, and left. I had just been stood up. I knew this was too good to be true.

I walk to my car and it 3:55, and i see Luke strolling down the block with a big grin on his face. I look at him and roll my eyes and get in and started the car. I see his confusion and his grin wiped off his face and he runs to my window.

"Hey, where you going?" he asked

"I have a doctors appointment and you blew me off so i kinda have no time for this so can u move please."

"Wait i can explain pl-"

"LUKE, MOVE. I don't have time to listen to you create an excuse to why your almost an hour late to when u made yourself sound so excited to be here. I thought that kiss meant something. Maybe that we have something but i cant handle being made a fool of and i can't deal with someone who makes me think one thing and then does soothing else, so can you please move I'm gonna be late."

"Can i at least get in to explain?"

"I said no Luke. Im sorry But i have to go." I closed the window and its weird he looks kind of upset and let down by the situation. Like he actually wanted this and had an excuse. I didn't even notice the tears filling my eyes as i drove away leaving him behind. I may have made a mistake by not hearing him out...

What do i do now?

I got to the doctor cleaned myself up and was seen right away.

"Hello, Tara. How are u?" Dr Cooper asked.

"Im okay."

"Well your tests came back and I'm afraid that time is running out."

Great. "How much now?"

"Id say about 4 months without chemo, and about 9 months to a year with chemo maybe more. The cancer is spreading so i need an answer as soon as possible."

Now I'm stuck i need to fix all this. With the list, my friends and family, and Luke.

*****

I left the doctors office and instantly called Nanette. Told her everything and at this point I'm hysterical crying in my car. All of a sudden a knock on my window scared me. I thought it was a cop or something but it wasn't.

It was Luke. He had about a dozen roses in his hand.

"Nanette im gonna have to call u back..." I rolled down the window, "Hi." I say flashing a smile behind the tears and makeup.

"I didn't know what flowers say 'im sorry for being a total tool for standing u up' so i just went with roses. Michael said i was to eager and to earn a little cool credit i should show up late. So after i realized how stupid it was that i listened to him, I felt so bad, I waited here till u were done. Im so sorry--" He stopped he must of realized i was crying, "Whats wrong gorgeous?" he said wiping my face.

"So much shit... (sniffle) i don't know what to do Luke and I'm scared (sobs!)"

He opens the door and just hugs me. "Im so sorry i didn't let u explain. Im sorry Im a bitch!"

"Please, babe, never apologize its my fault! Now, what happened at the doctor?"

I told him everything. "So I'm basically dying and i don't know what to do."

"Ur not dying, u are gonna beat it. Take the chemo, kick cancers ass and well finish the list together."

And before i can reply his lips collide into mine. The way he held my face, and the way we moved in sync. I hoped over on to his lap, straddling him. I was grinding on his lap and i feel is hands move to my butt. I went a little harder and I heard a moan "Fuckk"

I smiled in the kiss. I was surprised and couldn't help it. Im usually the prude, also i was a prude up till last night so I'm surprised i have this affect on boys. He went to my neck giving us breathing time and kissed up till right below my ear and i let out a gasp. Nanette tells me its some girls 'sweet spot'. I guess Luke figured it out and nipped and sucked on it. I let out a small whimper causing him to smile. When he pulled away we continued kissing until we pulled apart and out foreheads were touching.

"Your not going anywhere if i have anything to say about it" He whispers then kissing my head.
