Survive Tomorrow

Nothing lasts forever

       
Callie's POV

'WHAT? NO NO THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIE' My whole life starts to flash before my eyes but I shake the feeling off and laugh "You're kidding me right? Where's the camera?" I keep on laughing but I stop as my mum shakes her head and the doctor give me a sad stare. "It's not a joke then...but I'm too young to die" I say as my eye fill with tears, I quickly wipe them off though I can't let them see I'm weak.
       "I'm sorry" is all the doctor seems to have to say. I fill with anger but I try to calm it down "So how long do I have left....?" My mum and the doc exchange glances "About 2 years" they both say though my mum says in through her sobs and the doctor has a serious tone of voice which makes me even more furious. Then it hits me. 2 years? I'll be only 18.. I start to play with my hair, after chemotherapy I won't have even a bit of it left. And what about my band?
        "But I had plans! I am too young, I can't die, I wanted to fall in love, do stupid things, live my life to the fullest! You can't just take that away from me-" My mum cuts me off "Callie stop it" My eyes fill with tears once again but this time I just let them be. Even she doesn't have empathy for me?
      Where is Kyle? I need him more now than ever before. "Get out" I order them both trying to sound not too rude as they look at me, then at each other they go. However, my mum stops and looks at me wanting to say something. "I said, get out!" She looks down and I can see a tear rolling down her cheek but I don't care, she closes the door behind her and I completely break down. What now? I take my phone and see 10 messages from Kyle. Shit. I call him. "Kyle.." I start to say through sobs "What's wrong babe? Where are you? Are you okay?" he seems so concerned. "Just come to the hospital" I tell him the address and wait there for him trying to take my mind off it, listening to music.
      After half an hour the doors opens. "Kyle!" I almost scream when I see him, I want to run and hug him but I'm tied to this bed. Ugh. Fortunately, he can read my mind. He sits beside me and wraps his arms around me and I let him hug me, fighting my tears back. "I-I have-e cancer" I finally get it out as he pulls me out the hug and looks at me. "Callie that's not funny, you don't joke like that" As he says that a tear drops from my eye, well now I won't be able to stop them. "Kyle... I am not joking. I have fucking cancer. I am going to die" He looks at me once again as his eyes fill with watery liquid. He doesn't say anything just hugs me. "I'm sorry" I say. 'What the fuck Callie? Why are you apologising?' "Shhh" he says to me stroking my hair. I cry harder and let myself fall asleep in his arms.
