Don't miss me when I'm gone.

2- Party

Riley's POV

I sit by the cubbies waiting for James to arrive. We are having a party here, but Miss Kate said me and James could come early if we wanted. I twiddled my ring, my foot tapping rapidly off of the floor.

It had been about 10 minutes now, and I see my amazing boyfriend turn the corner. He sees me and just stands there, his adorable smirk reaching his ears. I giggle, and then run into his arms. We embrace each other's company for about 3 minutes before he finally says "hi."
"Heyy" I say back. We start walking into studio A as we talk.
"What have you been up to when I've been gone?" James asks, sounding extremely curious. I freeze on the spot. I had it all planned out, exactly what I was going to say. But now I was tongue-tied, nothing came out. I inhale a deep breath as I say, "I will tell you later." Being the understanding person he is, James just nods and takes my hand, pulling me into the studio. Time must have flew by because Thalia and Eldon have already arrived. I run and hug Thalia and give Eldon a nice side hug. Then the rest of the group come in. I give them all hugs in turn, getting asked the odd question of why I'd been distant. I didn't answer, of course. It may seem stupid not telling them about something as serious as this, but to be honest, I don't want to be treated any differently. You see, if any of them found out about this, I would get special-treatment, and I would absolutely hate that.

•••Later that night•••

Me and James are slow-dancing to We Go when I feel my phone vibrate against my bum. I quickly check it and see it's my Mum. "Hi sweetie, hope you're having fun. Just texting to remind you about your doctors appointment tomorrow. Love you xx" it reads. It then comes to mind that I have to tell James. It will just be awkward, me missing dance for unknown reasons. He will get curious and we'd probably fall out over secrets. "J-James" I say, looking up at him. I'm sure he can see the worry in my face as I say this.
"What babe?" He whispers.
"1.Don't call me babe. And 2..." I sigh and then carry on talking, "I have cancer."
