Chapter 4

........n

We walk through the security line in YVR (Vancouver Airport), and according to our boarding passes, Lucas and I are seated together. I don't know if that was just a coincidence or Lucy planned it, either way I'm not complaining.

I'm second in line when Lucy grabs my boarding pass and switches it with Patrick's who was originally seated next to Lucas. She skips through the metal detector, smirking at me as she grabs her carry on and walks towards our gate hand in hand with Patrick she he sends me an apologetic look

.......

I can't tell what she's thinking. She looks like she's hiding something but there is no possible way of telling what it is because she refuses to open up. Every time I bring up the time I found her on that trail she gets uncomfortable and squirmy, insisting it was nothing and changing the subject

I'm pulled out of my intense thoughts when the flight attendant asks for my drink order and I look over to see Danny with her hoodie pulled over her face with one headphone jammed in her ear and the other dangling aimlessly on her chest, with a little bit of drool coming from the left corner of her sweet luscious lips

"I'll take a coke and can you just bring her some water" I whisper quietly as not to wake Danny

"You too make a lovely couple" she whispers back

"Oh were n-" I stop mid sentence and look at the sleeping beauty one more time.

"I mean thank you" I smile as she walks away to obtain our drinks

I glance over to my left and across the aisle I see Lucy smiling at me, she obviously knows what I said to her

"She right you know?" Lucy says as looks back down at her magazine

"I know" I smirk continue reading my un interesting book

We step off the large air-plane into beautiful France, I still can't believe I'm here, yesterday I planned to stay at home and clean the floors, but instead I'm in a different continent, with culture and history all around me, but more importantly, a beautiful girl at my side, taking in the city of Paris.

I hail a cab and give him the name of the hotel Danny booked. I wonder how she is affording all of this, because so far, I haven't paid a dime this entire trip.

"hôtel Fairmont s'il vu plait" The cab driver looks back and smiles, obviously knowing were not from here

"Oui Monsieur" she pulls the van/cab thing from the curb, while we all look around us into the city

I sit with Danny in the back of the red van, admiring her beauty, while she admires the beauty of the City. She probably senses me starring at her because she looks at me and smiles that gorgeous pearly white smile of hers

"Why did you invite me here?" I ask, looking at her blue eyes, then glancing down to her inviting pink lips

"I like you" she simply says

And I thought I was going to have to make then first move, I'm not sure if she likes me as a friend, or more than that, but either way I like her answer.

.......

Obviously I like him. I invited him half way across the world. I think we're just going to have a little romantic thing and then when we get back to Canada, I'll break it off. Can't be that hard, we've only been friends for a month. He's just so nice and caring, he deserves forever and I can only give him a year, maybe less. I don't know how fast or slow this disease will kill me. It could kill me tomorrow, it could kill me in 4 years. I don't know but I intend to find out. I will not be wasting my precious time in a stuffy old hospital sitting around waiting to die
