The rest of class was a blur. The only thing racing through my mind was how was I supposed to break the news to Emily?

"Mackenzie!" I looked up. It was the teacher.

"Yes?"

"Do you know anyone with a diseas?" I nodded my head. "Who is it?"

"Me." I softly said.

"You probably have had a cold, but that isn't a disease."

"I know." I said coldly.

"Okay. Then what do you have?"

"I have cancer okay. Cancer." I almost shouted. That made him shut up. He looked down and didn't say anything for the rest of class.

At lunch, I still hadn't decided what to tell Emily. I walked up to the lunch counter and waited for her to plop hot lunch on my plate. It was spaghetti, my favorite. After she put it on my plate, I grabbed an apple, a soda, chips, and an icecream sundae.

I know, I get really hungry. I paid for my lunch and walked over to the lunch table I usually sat at. It was the jock table. I played soccer, basketball, and of course the girl's hockey league. I looked arond the table to see is any of my good friends were there yet.

Out of the soccer girls, there were Macy, Kelli, Annabeth, Clarisse, and Nkesi. Then, there was the the basketball girls, Jackie, Emily, Cate, Chika, Jessica, Nicole, and Sydnee. On the other half of the table was the hockey girls, Kaelyn, Haley, Kaylee, Mikaila, Katy, and Lizzie. Basically everyone was there.

To the table to the right was were the guy jocks sat. There was the usual, Ryan, Chaz, Matt, Jjohn, Christian, Chris, and...... a new kid. He had striking blue eyes, a perfect white smile, and pretty brown hair that was placed just the right way. In other words, he was hot.

I didn't know I was staring untill he looked over at me and mouthed You like what you see? I quickly looked away and ate my food in silence. What happened there was I now had a new thing on my mind. Who is that kid?

Every couple bites of food, I glanced over. Aftyer a few glances, I noticed that he wasn't looking over at me at all. So, I seized the moment and started to look at him more closely. He was wearing black skinny jeans, a white v neck shirt, and black supras.  Usually I would have thought that any guy who wore skinny jeans was gay, but there was something different about him. He just made it work.

Ryan whispered something to him and the kid started to turn around. I quickly looked away and continued to eat my lunch. The rest of the day was a blur.

"Tonights homework is..." Before Mr. Reymer could finish his sentence, the bell rang and I bolted out the door. So did most of the class. Only the teachers pet's stayed back to hear about homework.

"Finally, school's over!" Shouted Emily as she  caught up with my stride.

"Yeah!" We high fived and started to walk to our lockers.  We talked the whole way there, mostly about stupid subs and boys. I know, we talk about the weirdest things. Before I knew it, we were at our lockers.

Our school had this locker rule that your lockers were placed in alphabetical order by last name. It just so happened that my last name is Hayes and hers is Hazly.Weird right! We have always been right next to each other in class and in the halls.

"So," Emily said as she started to put her history book away in her locker."How weird was it for the new semester leasson in health was diseases? I mean, because of what you have and all."

"It was weird,, but I don't think he knew that I have you know what." Emily nodded her head as she finished putting away all of her stuff. "Speaking of that, I need to tell you something that I found out yesterday."

She shut her locker and looked at me. "Did you find out that everything is cleared?" She asked with hope in her eyes. That only made me sadder.

"No." I put my head down." Um, I found out that my tumor cam back."

"That's terrible! I can help you through it. We will do exactly what we did last time you found out you had a tumor."

"This time is going to be a little different." I said.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, they told me that I only have nine months left to live." I managed to say without bursting into tears. I lifted my head up and Emily was in complete shock.

"It's okay." She embraced me in a long hug. "We'll get through this. Do you know what this means?" My eyes stopped watering up, and a smile appeared.

"We're going to live life to the fullest."
