Against my arranged marriage.

Chapter twenty seven - "Perfect"

~Laura~

Today I was spending the day with Ash. I was unsure to what we were doing, he was keeping me in suspense about that as it was a surprise. I hated surprises they were annoying, I just wanted to know rather than being kept in the dark about it.

I was at his currently... In the last few days I had spent most of my time with Ash, I went back to Georgia's to stay though. I didn't want her to feel like I was ditching her and I was unsure to whether I wanted to spend the night with Ash, maybe I would today if he offered.

Ash was in the bathroom getting showered, he was taking ages... Like whats taking him so long? It takes like 5 minutes to get showered. I just shrugged and decided to look about through his room. I found a letter addressed to him from the hospital... I really shouldn't read it, I shouldn't... But my curiosity got the better of me.

The seal was already broken on the letter, so it wouldn't be too difficult to hide... I didn't need to worry about that.

I pulled out the letter, and began to read...

You treatment is due - chemotherapy. That is the best option for you, in this state. Your cancer is too advanced without it. If you decide to have this treatment it can extend your life for a few months....

I had read enough. I didn't need to read on.

Why hadn't Ash taken the treatment? He could have more time here with me... But i do understand in a way... If it was me I would think that I'm going to die anyway and there's no point having poison go through my veins. I can see it from both sides really.

Its just the doctors and hospitals are meant to help, yet most of the time their so useless... They can't even help Ash. I then heard footsteps, i quickly put the letter back into the envelope and put it back to where i found it. After that I scurried over to Ash's bed and sat down.

A few moments later he came in, finally ready.

"Umm are you ready to go?" Ash asked me.

"Yeah." I smiled.

"Come on then." He returned the smile, we then left his house and got into his car.

"Are you still not going to tell me where we're going?" I asked him.

"No, do you not understand the definition of surprise?" He replied.

"Yeah I do but I just don't like surprises." I explained.

"Well is that big a deal? You'll know soon and I won't be around for much longer then you won't have to complain." Ash murmured.

"Ash I didn't mean it like that. Please..." I began.

"Just leave it, lets just go." Ash mumbled before starting the car. He then started to drive... I sighed, I loved him, i really did. It's just things were so complicated at the moment and I felt like he was pushing me away whenever i tried to support and help him.

But I just wanted to leave this, and nothing negative to happen today especially if Ash was taking me somewhere and if we're spending the day together.

***

After two hours of driving Ash pulled up outside a big amusement park filled with rides... Oh, I wasn't really a big fan of rides as I didn't like heights but perhaps I could conquer my fear?

"We're here." Ash announced.

"Oh." I murmured.

"Is that all I get? oh? I just spent two hours driving here for you, you could at least show some appreciation. If you don't wanna be here then fine, just say the words and we can go." He snapped. He was so snappy, I didn't like it. He needed to chill. This is exactly what I mean, things are so difficult sometimes, I can't even respond back to that otherwise we will argue and I don't wanna be arguing with him when I don't know how much time we have left together.

As the day went on we found ourselves squabbling even more about petty things. But deep down I felt as if it made our relationship stronger.

I went on several rides with Ash today... Rides I never myself pictured going on at the start of the day. So there were positive aspects of the day aswell as the negative. The negative just kinda overruled, i mean we started arguing because Ash wanted KFC and I wanted Mcdondalds... It really is stupid, I needed to talk to him about it and so I did.

"Ash, can we stop arguing over petty silly things? You know how much I love you. We don't know how much time we have left and I don't want to spend it arguing with you," I softly told him.

"Then don't i'll take you home." He shrugged. Why is he taking out on context? I didn't mean it like that!

"No Ash, That's not what I want... I think you misunderstood what I said. Think about what I said and interpret it differently." I told him... It sounded a bit bossy but i felt as if he needed to do exactly that.

He narrowed his eyes at me, he looked a little stunned by what I had just said...

"I don't need to do any of that Laura. I know exactly what you meant. I interpreted it correctly the first time. Come on we're going." He told me. He then headed out of the amusement park, I followed him to the car.

Today was meant to be a good day... This was meant to be a surprise, so today was meant to go well. But it hadn't gone well... If anything it had gone the complete opposite.

It hadn't been the perfect day I had expected... I may sound ungrateful but I'm not... Ash is a great guy, he tried he really did and I'm grateful for that... I think he's just stressed because his meds are wearing off or it has something to do with his illness. Because he's been fine other days.

And I now had a long two hour journey back home... I also felt nauseous. Ugh can it get any worse?

omg yikes this is so hard to write. It's the only book that I'm currently updating regularly which isn't a fan fiction :) but it should be finished soon. Only three more chapters to go. I will miss this book but i won't miss the writers block for it aha.

unedited probably loads of mistakes so i'm sorry for that.

Sorry this update is dreadful. I know it is. The chapter took a turn for the worst, like it was actually meant to be a perfect day but i couldn't write it so i just done the complete opposite.

Thanks for reading :)

chapter twenty eight will be up next weekend ~ I think. No promises aha.

thanks for reading.
