Chapter 20?

(Lauren's POV)

It was supposed to be a happy day, but my brain was slipping. It was supposed to be happy because it was Steven and i's anniversary. I
Knew I was getting weaker and I could only think about my birthday. My not so close, but one of my favorite aunts died. She died 5 days before my birthday. Happy fuckin birthday to me... How did I find out? By family? Nope. By phone call? Nope. By my parents telling me? Nope! I found out by Facebook. It was a Facebook post. Sure, maybe the person didn't think I would see it! This information I really didn't want to find out by Facebook... I really didn't, but I did! Screw it... I'm tired of fighting these tears. I broke down crying alone in my bedroom... I never got to say goodbye. I never got my closure, but was I sure that I even wanted closure? I know I don't believe in goodbyes...

I knew it would pain Steven to say goodbye to me. I knew it would. I knew that today would be my last day with my beloved Steven... God I
Hope he pulls through this. He kissed me today, ever so softly. I haven't even moved from my bed in a day. As my body deteriorated I felt a slight tinge of sadness. I was leaving the family I built and created.

The cancer has taken over me worse and worse. By the time the doctors caught it, it was too late... Stage IV breast cancer and brain cancer. They said I wouldn't make it to Christmas. Maybe they were right... I could barely move now... It's March 22nd and I know I'm nearing the end...

-Chapter 12-

(Emily POV)

It was the big day! The day of the bridal shower, baby shower, bachelor, and bachelorette parties! It was going to be so fun! I already got Lauren tons of presents and I was in charge of setting up the girl parties, whilst Norman was in charge of setting up the guy parties. Now, I have been off the show for a while. My character Beth sadly got killed off, but I still talk to Lauren very regularly. She's my best friend, were practically sisters!

(Lauren's POV)

I walked down the stairs in my sparkly blue dress that clung to my bulging belly. I am now 6 months pregnant, yes we had the parties 2 months after I found out what the gender was. That's plenty of time for my guests to buy presents right? Some of my family was supposed to be flying down but had to cancel due to bad weather. I was disappointed, yes, but at least I have my walking dead family!

Chandler, Emily, Norman, Melissa, Steven of course, Andrew, and even Robert Kirkman, our producer, came as well! Norman brought his son Mingus along so chandler wouldn't be alone.

Chandler didn't have to come, but he really wanted to have fun with the rest of us. I was genuinely quite happy that he did decide to come. I kissed Steven deeply to thank him for everything. Just as I kissed him, I felt the same sparks that I have always felt with him.

And you stood there in front of me just
Close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly, whenever you smile

I see sparks fly every time he smiles, every time we kiss, every time he just stares at me. I know for a fact I will forever and always love him...

(Stevens POV)

I kept thinking about the ways I love Lauren. I love her so much... Now to just thing them out loud... I'm not good at singing so I'll just play it for her.

"Lauren" I said suddenly as she looked at me

"Yea babe?" She asked me sweetly making the butterflies go back to my stomach. I've had the same butterflies since we first met.
