Seth's POV

Watching my friend collapse like that out of no where was no doubt the scariest thing that has ever happened and i witnessed it first hand. I really didnt know what to do next so i called 911 then called his mom. The ambulance people put Terry on the gurtle and i rode to the hospital with him in the ambelance. They rushed him to the doctors to get him checked and they wouldnt let me in to stay with him so i just waited at the waiting area pacing back and forth and i tried coming up with reasonable explanations for all this. Before i knew it Terry's parents demanded to see his sun and insisted i come with them to see Terry.

Terry's POV

i felt my heart ache and i heard a familiar voice talk with another familiar voice.

"What happened Seth," said the familiar voice

" we were talking and suddenly he blacked out," a voice replied

i open my eyes, suddenly i felt Seth's and my parents' graze on me. Before any one said a word, the door creeked and the doctor came in.

"Hey Doc so whats up with my son," asked my dad curiously

" Well we found out that your son had Chronic Myeloid Leukemia which is a cancer when the forming blood cells of the blood marrow invades the blood."

i froze, shocked at all the information he was giving me i never in a million year would have thought that i had cancer

"honey its gonna be ok," said mom but i could already see tears going down her eyes

"can everyone just leave i think i need some time alone," i asked pleadingly

"sure," replied my dad still overwhelmed

"but....we could help," Seth tried reasoning

" lets just give him some time alone to process things," said dad guiding everyone out of the room

I sat in the hospital bed thinking thinking why it has to be me. Why do i have to die?

~hours later~

Seths POV

i watch my best friend sit there hes face emotionless hes been like that for hours i want to cheer up but dont know how without him shutting me out

i decide to leave it alone and go home and hope he is better tomorrow.

Terry's POV

i start to see Seth watch me but i just stare at nothing i stare into the walls of the hospital thinking what to do with the rest of my life. MY parents left an hour ago to talk about stuff telling me that they were leaving before while i was sitting there keeping my thoughts to myself. Seth starts to leave the hospital and i know hes going to be here tomorrrow and i just cry i let everything i was holding back when my parents and seth were watching i finally let go. I cry beacuse i know im going to die. I cry because i know i cant just cry infront of my parents or seth or infront of anyone i know at school because they will have the same look on their face...pity. Everyone will pity me and try to comfort me. But i dont want any of that i just want to be alone. Away from everyone. A nurse comes in and injects this shot in my arm that suppose to make me go to sleep and the more i think the faster i can feel myself slowly going to sleep. i tried fighting the medicine but i finally gave in and let go hoping tomorrow will get better
