Emily's p.o.v:

"Um, hey Emily, it's Jordan."

What? Why is he calling me now? I should just hang up now. But I can't. His voice makes me feel happy.
"Oh hey. What's up?" I say, trying to sound calm.
"Not good. But I'm holding on. You?"
"Good. And I'm glad that you haven't given up." I say.

I sigh, "Look, I'm so sorry that I couldn't say bye the day I left. I was rushed out the door and I was gonna be late for the plane if I didn-" he cuts me off.
"No it's fine. You were really busy, and you wouldn't have been able to say bye anyway."
"oh thank god," I say, "Lilly doesn't forgive me. She hates me, but I want to talk to her really bad. When you didn't pick up after all those calls, I thought that you started to hate me too."

He laughs and god that laugh.
"Never. I could never be made at you." His laugh disappears. "I need to tell you something."

"Me too. But you first."
"no you first."
"Same time."

We both count to three.

Jordan: I have cancer.
Emily: I love you.
(thats them saying it at the same time.)
What? He has... No.

"Wait. What?" He says, "what did you say?"
"You have... Cancer?"

   "What did you say Emily?" I breathed in.
"It's stupid." I say, ready to hang up, jordan says four quick words. Then I hang up.
"Hey Emmie, I'm thinking of making spaggettie. Do you want any?" Dan knocks on my door.
"No thanks...." I say in a very low voice.
"Hey, are you okay?" He enters my room.
He comes over to me. "Why are you crying?"
"I'm not crying. I'm just very very tired, and wish to go to sleep." I stand up. Before heading to my bathroom, Dan grabs my wrists and pulls up my sleeves.
"Dan, stop." I yell.
Phil runs into the room. "What's going on?"
"Look!" He pulls me over to my Dad, but nor hard. "Why are you cutting?"
The tears run to my cheeks, "I'm sorry..."

"Don't be. Life's not easy, especially when your almost 19." Phil pulls me close.
"I'm so stupid. Everyone hates me. My friends hate me."
"No you're not. You're a beautiful young women, and no one can see it, then fuck them. Not literally." Dan's says.
I laugh quiet.
"And you're laugh is amazing. I couldn't ask for more. You may not be perfect, but you are amazing." Phil says, pretty much agreeging with Dan.
"Thanks guys." I breathe in, "What do I do if my crush tells me that they love me back?"
They both freeze, and laugh.
"You're the dad Phil. Give her advice about love." Dan says backing away.
"No I'm asking both of you." I say.
They both pat me on the head. "Ignore them. They don't mean it." Dan says.
"What? No, you tell them the truth. How do you feel about this person?"

Well I love Jordan, but it will never happen. I want it too, but it won't.
I mean, who would love a daisy when you can pick a rose? Jordan's way better than me. Even if he does love me, I don't wish to ruin our friendship.
But his beautiful eyes, and that smile. I would do anything to see that smile everyday. I don't know.
While I was thinking about Jordan, Dan and Phil talked about love. I swear there so complicated at times.
"I don't know." They suddenly turn to me.
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, I'm not his type. He's probably just saying that to make me hurt. He's that type of person."
"He sounds like a dick." Dan says.
"Dan!" Phil yells, "that's her crush."
"No I mean, who wants to say 'I love you too' just to hurt someone?"
"He's been through a lot. But I know he does care for me... Just not like I do him."
"Em, you have to promise something?" Phil says, "Don't cut anymore."
"I'll try."
"Well, tomorrow's Vidcon. Start packing and get some good rest."

"Okay. night," I say, then stop real quick, "Oh and Dan. May I have some speggettie please?"

"Sure."

******

Shit shit shit shit shit shit! We were all suppose to be finished packing, but guess who forgot to finish? Yep that's right...

"Dan!" Phil yells, "hurry up or we're gonna be late. Em you got everything? Laptop? Suitcase packed?"
"Yes dad." I head into Dan's room, "Here let me help."

Dan's p.o.v:

We finally made it in time.               
   When we get on the plane, Phil's seat was moved behind us, even though he was to be next to Emily.
Last night, Emily was weird. It was like all her happiness went away. Like to a whole other planet.
"So where's the Vidcon gonna be held?" She asks.
"I think New York. I can't wait to introduce you to Felix, Tyler, Louise, oh, I can't wait to show you Conner's videos." I say. I think I'm talking to much.
"Oh yeah. I already watch their videos, well I'm new to Louise and Tyler's channel. But I still love them both. I can't wait to meet Felix. Literally, my fave gaming channel... Besides you and Dad." She laughs.
Her little laugh is so cute. I just wanna pinch her cheeks. Oh god I'm weird.
"Hey guys, I'm bored." Phil's head pops up over Em.

  I'm kinda jealouse of Phil. I wanna be a parent. But I'm also not ready for a child so yeah.
"So, here's a color book. I'm always prepared. Well, not always." She hands Phil an animal book, "have fun. Oh and here are some crayons."
Phil shrugs, and Emily grabs some paper and a pencil.
"Whatcha doin'?" I ask her, while she draws a circle.
"You'll see." She teases.

I try to guess what she's drawing, but fail. She draws a body and some hands, until she has a full charecter.
She curses under her breath and erases each mistake. I look behind me to see Phil coloring like as toddler.
  I grab my laptop, and earphones.   
   I nugg Em and give her an earbud.
"Thanks."

6 hours later*

I get bored and go to Google fued. (I know, they just made a video of it not long ago, but come on. It's pretty fun.)
I notice Emily asleep on my shoulder. I grab my phone as a mirror to look at Phil. He's also asleep.
I close my laptop and rest my head as well. I quickly kiss Emily's forehead. Then finally fall into a deep sleep.
