The Bucket List (a 1D fanfic)

Chapter 2

*DREAM*

I was running on the beach, carefree. My long, blonde hair was real, the sky blue and the waves gently crashing on the shore.

It was amazing.

Then suddenly, a force came, taking it all away. Suddenly I was eleven years old again, dying in my hospital bed. I was screaming from the pain, being held down by a doctor so that the nurse could sedate me. My mother sobbing in the background, yelling.

"Don't take her! NOT HER!" She screamed to no one in particular. Suddenly, I couldn't hear, I started hyperventilating, and everything slowly went black.

*END OF DREAM*

I woke up shuddering. I dream about this horrible point in my life alot.

When I was eleven, the cancer was very severe and I nearly died. It was so bad that I was having heart attacks, and the reason I am still here today is because I was revived, one of the only things that has ever worked during my cancer battle. But thank The Lord I am still here today.

I rubbed the spot on my face where the towel pressed against, and stood up, taking a breath of fresh air. I felt good, I usually never do, because cancer takes all of the happiness out of you, puts it in a blender and hits liquidize.

I start to walk home, then I walk in and grab a snack. I went online to Harry Style's instagram page.

I still can't believe I am meeting him tomorrow.

This band is one of the reasons I am still alive, I couldn't do it without them. I looked at the page and smiled at all of the shots with fans, happy that I was to be among them.

Over a supper of sushi and white rice my mother and I talked about the concert.

"I'm so psyched! Thanks so much!" I told her, probably for the fiftieth time today.

"Your welcome, you deserve it!" She replied, smiling. I was so proud of my mother. I thought she wouldn't be able to handle my cancer, because my father had died of the same illness, but she is doing so well.

"I don't know what I would do without you, Arabelle" she continues.

I smile. "Mom, I love you so much." I tell her, standing up and giving her a hug as I cleared my plate.

Later I climbed into my bed and turned on my Blu-Ray to the "This Is Us" movie of One Direction. I watch it until my eyelids slam shut.
