Chapter 1

Avery's POV

"No, it won't make anything better. I am against it. She went through too much pain, Doc." Cora stated, crossing her arms over her chest.

Doctor Brown nodded. "I know, I know. But if we don't help her soon, she'll get worse. You need to understand that we can't let her wait. The cancer is getting bigger."

Yes, I have cancer. And apparently since a long time. We only noticed last year. Last year was a pretty eventful year for me. I got away from my parents, I moved in with my best friend, and I found out that I have leukemia.

The doctors look for ways to heal me, but for some reason it won't help. While I am hopeless, they have a lot of hope in me. They say that I'll get better soon, and that they try their best. So does Cora.

Cora has become a motherly figure to me. I don't want her to get stressed out about me and to waste her money on me, but she says that I'm like a daughter to her. And that she knows me since I was four. She says that she won't give up on me since I am a part of the family. I personally think that she should let me deal with my fate. I can't do anything about it, can I?

"Yeah, but the chemo's didn't help, did they? She is not going through that again."

"Mrs. Woods, its the best for her!" Doctor Brown stood up from her seat. "Either way she dies, or we'll help her."

We all stayed silent. After a while Cora spoke up, "Fine," she glared at Mrs. Brown. "Take your stuff Avery, we are going." she didn't look happy. I did what she wanted me to since I don't want to get on her bad side.

I waved goodbye to Doctor Brown, then exited the room. Cora looked pissed off, she probably is going to kill someone. Maybe she should just kill me. Then she wouldn't have that problem anymore. "I'm sorry." I apologized, hopping into the passenger seat.

Cora looked at me for a second before shaking her head. She started the engine. "I only want the best for you, Avery. If Charlotte or Ryan would be in the same situation, I would do the same for them. Don't think that it is your fault."

"Well, it kind off is." I looked out the window while we passed the buildings.

"Avery, stop saying it!" Cora yelled, making me jump. "I'm sorry." she apologized for her sudden outburst.

"No, I am." I sent her a smile. Of course it was faked. I am sorry, yes, but I don't understand why she still keeps up with me. I wouldn't keep up with myself to be honest. I understand my parents for treating me like shit.

When we arrived home, I took my bag and made my way to my room. It was 3pm, the guys must be home in a few minutes. I laid on my bed since I was done. I've been in the hospital for three hours now. We did different tests and talked about the next steps. I need to do another chemotherapy. Apparently it will help me. I lost my hair one time the last time I had one. I have a few wigs since my hair looks awful. I have shoulder length hair, brown.

"Are you hungry, honey?" Cora didn't bother to knock on the door.

I shook my head. "No."

Cora sighed, sitting on my bed. "I am sorry for my outburst. I just, I got frustrated. You are my daughter, Avery, and I love you. I just want the best for you and can't stand seeing you hurt."

I wrapped my arms around her. "Thank you for everything, Cora. You guys are amazing people. And thank you for going through this with me." I exhaled her smell in. I always liked the way she smells. Flowers. It always reminds me of the day when I first met Charlotte, my best friend. It was in kindergarten, and she gave me a flower because she accidentally stepped on my finger.
