As I get up out of bed I stand at my chest of drawers and look at myself in the mirror that sits right above it, I look at my hair wondering what the hell to do. It quite frankly looks like a birds nest, I just decide to brush it and put some water through it to make it look semi nice. I quickly put the clothes on I had on the floor, a dark red top, black ripped jeans, a grey hoody and some white shoes well there more like a very light brown now.

"Hurry up Ivy your going to be late" Dad yells from the other side of the house "The one day I say yes to going to school please don't rush me" I yell back "Fine don't be so slow is that better" Dad yells back "Hahaha very funny but I'm coming now" I yell back grabbing my bag and phone from the end of my bed and walking to the front of the house.

"Ok are you ready munchkin? Wait you aren't having anything to eat?" Dad asks "As ready as I will ever be dad and no I'm not really that hungry" I reply "Ok well I hope you have some food in your bag, now go get in the car I will be there in a second" Dad asks "Ok" I say as I head out to the car.

After about a minute dad comes out of the house and we headed of to school "Ok bye munchkin I love you" Dad says to me as we pull up to school "Ok bye dad I love you too" I say back giving him a big hug and a big kiss on the cheek before getting out of the car, really not wanting to.

Like normal I walk in with my hoody on and earphones in as if there was no one else at school but me. I walk to my first class with Miss Deana, which is Math's, which is not to bad, I wait by the door. While I was waiting my only friend at this whole school well whole world besides my dad was there, we always sit together in all classes we have together.

I watch as Troian walks over to me and stands there staring at me with her blue eyes... like can you stop?

"Hello" Troain says pulling an earphone out of one of my ear "Look who decided to show up today" Troain adds on "First of all ouch and yes I did show up today I think we have a test in math's and I cant miss that" I reply "Really like that makes you come to school any other time" Troian says

"Haha you got me there your right well dad asked me to come to school and I wanted to make him happy so..." I say putting my earphone back in.

Not long after the teacher opens the door and Troian and I go straight to the back of the class and get my book and a pencil out. I take out my earphones and put them in my bag and turn my phone off well on silent and just wait for the class to start.

The teacher explains everything and then hands out the test sheets and tells us all to start. It was really easy I was going threw it really fast until I hear my name called "Ivy can you come here please" the teacher asks "Coming" I say looking up ''Yes" I ask the teacher as I got to were she was "Can you please go to the front office" "What for?" I ask very confused "I'm not to sure they just said you have to go to the front office" Miss Deana says "What about my test?" I ask "You can finish it when you get back" she says "Ok let me get my stuff and I will go" I say heading back to my desk and getting my stuff "I have to go to the front office I will be back soon" I tell Troian and then I head on up to the front office.

I finally got to the front office and as I walk in I see Anna, Troain's mum was there and I was very confused "hi Ivy come with me please I need to tell you something" Anna says a little chocked up walking to the door gesturing me to follow her "What is it?" I ask as we got outside "Well your dad fainted and is in hospital" Anna says and my heart just drops "Take me to him now" I say a little to loud because I see the people in the office looking at me. I just knew it wasn't going to be a good day but not because something like this was going to happen,

We start to walk to Anna's car.

I feel my eyes start to fill up with water and then I blink and a tear falls down my face and then a couple more and before I knew it I was crying. I take a deep breath to try and speak and I finally got it out "how bad it is?" I ask trying to stay calm "I'm not to sure hunny but your dad is going to be ok" she tells me then gives me a hug "how about we get in the car and go to the hospital now how about that?" she asks pulling away "ok" I say getting into the car.

I pull my phone out and text Troian about what is happening and that I will not be coming back to school,

Troain: Oh my god is he ok? And its fine you have to be with him I really hope he feels better and I Love you.

Ivy: Don't really know much your mum came and I Love you to.

After about a 15-minute drive we arrive at the hospital and I pretty much run to the front door. I stop dead in my tracks just standing there not being able to move scared to go in and see the state my dad is in. I don't know anything I don't know what it is and I don't know what he looks like. "Anna I'm scared" I say looking down "Don't be scared love it will be ok" Anna says making me look back up at her.

So I take a deep breath than walk through the doors. I look around waiting for Anna to find out were his room is what was 5-minutes felt like an hour, she finds his room and we make are way up there and I was still scared even though I've been telling myself he is going to be ok, we get to the his room and I look in.

I stand there just looking at him Pail as a ghost, struggling to drink, I feel an anger rush over me. What has he not been telling me? Why is he this sick just from passing out? . Why?

"Dad" I finally get out and that's all I could get out I just couldn't say anymore "Hey munchkin I'm ok I'm going to be ok" he tells me but the thing is I just don't believe it just look at him, he sees the way I'm looking at him and asks everyone to leave except the doctor "dad I'm scared what's going on?" I ask moving and sitting on the end of the bed.

"Well hunny I'm sorry I kept this from you I didn't want to make you worry about me and with the stuff that's happening with you I didn't want to put this on you as well" Dad was saying before I cut him off "please get to the point dad" I see him take a deep breath and he takes my hands and looks me in the eyes "hunny I have I have bone cancer" and my heart drops even lower I just I can't. I loose it I just start crying.

"Hey hunny please stop crying you don't see me crying please look at me" he tells me squeezing my hands, I try to stop crying and look up at him "h-how did it get s-so bad?" I ask, "I'm not to sure it just progressed really quickly" "h-how long have y-you known?" "For about 6 months now."

"But I just want you to know I love you very much you're an amazing girl well woman and you're going to do amazing things" "dad no stop your going to be ok" "I don't think so hunny" "yes dad please you cant leave me I love you and I need you" I say moving closer then leaning in for a hug "I'm proud of you and I love you" I hear him whisper and then I hear something that didn't sound right I look up and I see it.

"NURSE DOCTORS PLEASE SOMEONE HURRY MY DAD NEEDS HELP!!" I yell and than everything just went off I could see everything but couldn't hear anything or feel anything I was numb.

I few moments later everything comes back to me I can hear everything and feel things now but I can't say anything I'm way to chocked up. I just look around and people are still in my dad's room, surrounding him than I feel a body pull me into a hug "its going to be ok its going to be ok" this voice keeps telling me but I just stood there I couldn't even cry.

I get taken into a room and sat down with both Anna and a doctor. The doctor sat down and looked at me "I'm so sorry we did everything we could" I knew what was coming after that I just wanted her to say but he could still survive but that's not what she said "but we couldn't save him" and by this time my heart is out of my body.

"NO THAT'S NOT RIGHT I WAS JUST TALKING TO HIM HE HAS TO STILL BE HERE HE CAN'T BE GONE!!" I yell at the doctor not wanting to but that's just what happened. It's been about half an hour now and a man with a suit walks into the room "hi Ivy I'm James your dads Attorney I have been taking care of your dads will and as you may know everything your dad owns goes to you and is now in your name but your dad has organized to sell the house and everything is sorted so just say the word and it starts... I know it's a lot at the moment but just give me a call later when you understand" he says giving me his card " there is one thing your dad left me to give to you" he says and then hands me a letter and I take it still not comprehending anything that's going on "please don't forget to call, if you don't understand just call please" then he got up and left the room

I look down and on the front it says to my munchkin I open it up hesitant to read it "I will give you some privacy" Anna says getting up an also walking out leaving me alone. Before I open it I just hear someone come running in and giving me a hug I look up and its Troain "I'm so sorry" she says hugging me even harder "Ok hunny give Ivy some privacy you can hug her later" Anna said so softly. I wait a minute before I open it.

To my munchkin
