Zayn's POV

Lakshmi didn't come out of her room until the next morning and when she did it was like nothing had ever happened. Harry ended up crashing on the sofa and I slept in my bed. though I heard him get up several time during the night so I guess like me he didn't sleep.

"In sorry", Lakshmi admits. Standing there she looks like a little girl. All the sureness is gone and she is open to attack from anyone.

"It's ok", I reply. She shakes her head hard.

"No. I was a bitch. Will you come with me to the hospital today?" I walk up to her and hold her shoulders.

"You know I will", I tell her and she nods. Lakshmi makes her way into her room as Harry comes out of mine.

"Was that Lakshmi?" he asks groggily, rubbing the crusties out of his eyes. I nod. "Is she ok?" he asks.

"Yeh I'm taking her to the hospital ", I tell him and he nods. He's working today with Niall but the rest of us aren't.

At the hospital we were waiting in the waiting room for about half an hour before the lady called out Lakshmi's name. The hospital was full of cancer patients and people who came to get tested.

"Are you Lakshmi?", the doctor asks. Lakshmi nods, "I'm doctor Who, please don't make fun of my name", he says and we both laugh.

"Can I see the bruises on your back please?", he asks and Lakshmi nods. she takes of her shirt and shows him the bruises. He frowns and motions for her to put her shirt back on.

"Ok Lakshmi I'm going to ask you a few questions and I just want you to say yes or no", he says and Lakshmi nods.

"Have you been experiencing any anemia?"

"Yes"

"Tummy aches?"

"Yes"

"Bruises and bleeding?"

"Yes"

"Ok I think this is a form of AML I am almost certain. Do you know what that is?" he asks her.

"Acute myelogenous leukemia, and your going to send me for a bone marrow aspiration and a biopsy", she says and the doctor looks surprised.

"You're correct are you happy for the procedure to continue?" he asks and Lakshmi nods and signs the consent form.

The nurses take Lakshmi away and prep her for the procedure. apparently I can watch from outside if I wanted to.

It took half an hour for the procedure to start. Lakshmi laid on the bed stomach down and they inserted a thing that looked like a screwdriver into her lower spine and took out some bone marrow. It took all of an hour to finish.

Soon we were back in the doctors office and he had the results.

"Lakshmi you have acute promyelocytic leukemia, I'm sorry", he says and looks down at his hands. Lakshmi keeps her straight face.

"What treatments are you going to do?" I ask him and he takes of his glasses and rubs them.

"I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do. It's too far along. I say you have a few months. A nurse with help you in the last few days but until then you should feel normal. I'm sorry".

A few months? that meant I had hardly anytime with her. In a few months my love would be gone.

A/N and there you go. Shock horror. yeh I'm not very sympathetic. sorry.
