You know you can only have up to 200 books on a reading list? Wattpad, if you're reading this, I would appreciate if you could make the limit higher or preferably unlimited lol. Anyways, on with the chapter.

Breathe in. Breathe out. Repeat.

That's all I did for a while, staring at the beige wall across the room. I flicked my eyes over to where Zayn had fallen asleep quite awhile ago. It was probably three or four and I had yet to get sleep just thinking about tomorrow. Or actually, today.

I had dreaded lots of things in my short span of life, running a mile in gym, taking exams I hadn't even studied for, lots of things actually. But I was really not wanting to do this chemo treatment, because I knew the chemo would just make me sick and just postpone the cancer from killing me.

I knew I was as good as dead, and that didn't bother me as much as leaving someone behind that actually gave a shit if you were gone.

Suddenly, Zayn stirs opening his eyes groaning when he sets up because his neck makes a disgusting crackling noise.

"What time is it?" He slurs.

"Three thirteen." I say after checking the clock on the wall.

"Oh shit, I didn't mean to fall asleep. Why didn't you wake me up?" He asks sitting up lazily.

"I was enjoying the blissful silence that I haven't had since you barged into my life." I joke.

"Haha very funny. I'll be right back." He says getting up.

"Wait, where are you goin'?" I question.

"To conquer the universe! Nah, I'm just taking a leak." He smirks.

I shoot him an unamused glance while he walks out of the room laughing.

I smile and cut on the tv now since I don't have to worry about waking anyone up.

When I finally get into the movie on the hallmark channel, Zayn busts in the room, smiling like an idiot.

"Was taking a piss really that exhilarating for you?" I smirk.

He just scoffs but that doesn't stop his smile. "We should do another bucket list item."

"What did you want to do? I have chemo later." I ask getting off my warm bed and slipping on some fluffy pink socks because the halls in this hospital were about as cold as my heart.

"Maybe we could finger paint. I know the children's ward has tons of paint. I'm the one who is always cleaning it up." He says.

"Let's do it. Even though it's only three in the morning." I laugh.

"Ok I'll be back in a few minutes." He walks out the door as I walk to the bathroom.
