Only you (A ThatcherJoe/ Youtuber fanfic)

Chapter 27

Charlotte's POV:

"I have some news too, not even you know Jim, I only found out three days ago and only myself and Tash know, I have-" She was then interrupted by her phone ringing. She stood up and took it into her hand.

"I have to take this, hold on." She walked out and me and Jim sat in silence for a moment.

"Are you okay?" I asked him as he sat there shaking slightly.

"Ye, I think I know what's up, I could be wrong... but i'm so scared Charlotte, what do I do?"

"You stay strong, don't show her you're scared, it's okay to be scared but as you said, you could be wrong, try not to worry before you know for sure."
"Okay, I'll try but I really hope i'm not right."

"Can I ask what you think it is Jim?"

"Cancer. Breast cancer." I gasped in shock.

"Why do you think that?"

"Well... when we were, you know, I ran my hand up her side and I thought I felt a small lump to the side of her breast, but I didn't think much of it, now I wish I did."

"Oh Jim, I really hope she'll be okay, you'll both be okay. At least she's not alone."

"I'd never let her be alone, she's so important to me and i'd never forgive myself if something were to happen to her, or if she were left alone."

"You'll be fine, you both will, just focus on each other and everything you can do together, getting over this. You will get each other through this. I just wish I could still be close to you guys, help you."

"You could be, you could move back, be with us all, raise that beautiful baby, have the support of everyone, I love Brandon but if he truly loved you, he'd follow you to wherever you wanted to be."

"He's right." Tan sat down and joined our conversation.

"How much did you hear?" We giggled.

"I started listening when you said that you'd never let me be alone Jim, you're so sweet and he's right Charlotte, Brandon would want you to be happy and that's home, please try and talk to him, we have grown closer to you in 2 months than we have everyone else, we could do with you at home. Please Charlotte."

"I'll talk to him, are you okay Tan?" She looked pale and vulnerable. Jim placed an arm around her and looked into her eyes.

"I have cancer, breast cancer." She sighed and a tear ran down her cheek. I moved round and Jim and I held her tight. A tear ran down my cheek too, because they had to go through this, I knew they were strong but this would be so hard for both of them.

"We'll get through this, together." Jim said and I let go, he held her tight and it seemed like he would never let go.

We eventually finished up and headed back for their hotel room. They asked if I wanted to go in to talk more privately so I agreed and we sat down.

"How do I tell him?" I asked and they thought for a moment.

"Just say it, bring up the idea of London and see what happens. I know you love him but London is your home and if he doesn't like any of it, he clearly isn't the right guy for you and you can come back with us." Tan suggested and I nodded.

"Okay, I will. I'll do it now and let you know how it goes, I hope you're both okay, I'll speak to you later?" They odded and I headed back to Brandon's.

"Heya Charlotte, how was dinner."

"Good I guess." I smiled.

"Do they know?"
