JACOB POV

The next morning, I woke up early because I had plan out everything with Emily. I was nervous, because I know she doesn't like me as much as I like her. Plus, with everything going on, I don't want to add more stress to her. I kept thinking about how I was going to ask her, when I was going to ask her, what she would say,etc.etc... I'm just really nervous. She's an amazing girl, and I always want to be there for her. I watched Netflix for the rest of the morning, and before I knew it, Emily rang my doorbell. I got up, grabbed the roses that were on my table, hid them behind my back, and answered the door. She was smiling, and she looked really happy, which made me happy. 

"Hey Em" I said. I hope I didn't sound stupid

"Hey Jacob" she said. Then she kissed me on the cheek. I thought that was my cue. I gave her the roses from behind my back and said:   

"Emily, I know we just met and all, but I really, really, really, like you. You're so amazing, and I know you are going through a lot, but I want to be there for you. Will you be my girlfriend?" 

"Of course I will" Then she kissed me, and I kissed her back. I never wanted it to end. I felt sparks going all over my body. I was the happiest boy on the planet. Then she pulled apart. She was kinda breathing heavy, probably due to the long kiss and her asthma.

"You ok?" I asked her. I could tell she was really embarrassed. She blinked back some tears, and I could tell she didn't want me to notice, so I pretended I didn't.

"I'm great" she said. Then she smiled. We walked into my house, and sat down on the couch. We started talking about people, school, tv, and all that stuff. After that she said to me:

"Jacob, I have to tell you something"

"What is it princess." I said back

"I just want you to know that, there's a 50% chance of me living, and I think that since we are dating, you should know that, I'm probably not always going to be there for you. I know it sucks, but one day I'm just going to die. I don't want you to love me, because then its going to hurt you even more."

"Em, don't say that. I'm not thinking about what's going to happen, I'm thinking about right now. I'm thinking about how I'm the luckiest boy in the world because I'm dating the most beautiful, smartest, funniest, and most amazing girl out there. You don't have to always be there for me, but you should know that I'm always going to be there for you. Okay?" She started tearing up. My heart is breaking. I feel so bad for her, it's unreal. She doesn't deserve this.

"Okay" she said. Then she put her head on my shoulder. I kissed the top of her head, and then put my arm around her.

"Everything's going to be okay. Trust me" I said to her

Or is it...?
