" I'm not you think I am. I was living here my whole life , I knew you. You were jacks sister. Remember me. I was the kid who dressed up like a zombie on valentines. I was the bad boy. I had all the girls falling for me. I never noticed the little things that made the biggest difference. I was living life on the edge of the cliff doing the craziest things. I was rich. I had everything. Till my father told me he lost his acting job. And everything went to ashes tafter that. Though after a month he said I could still keep my sports cars and everything went back to normal. I didn't notice the drugs that were thrown around in random places. I didn't. That's my worst mistake. One day one da-y " he choked on his tears." one day I walked into the mansion and saw my father standing still as if he was frozen. And I screamed like I was dying when I saw my 15 year old sisters head lying on the kitchen table with a note " I told you to take care of that girl , you didn't and this is the price for that mistake " my whole world was ripped from me because I was never here with my sister I was always partying I was never there for Lilly. She's a lot like you. And the thing is that my father just blinks as he tells me to burn the head. Like it was nothing to him. My world was ripped from me and smashed to bits. I lost myself. I was never the same. And it all seemed my fault "
" my sister died because of you my father said as he told about the night you saw a murder scene and told your parents who told the police and then some guys from my father gang got caught so in the end my sister lost her life and my father destroyed yours. But I only felt empty. I didn't believe my father. I made myself a new profile at school. The Bad boy Jace was gone and no one noticed that the boy in the hoodie was a popular bad boy. They all didn't care when they realized that Jace Stone was gone , my girlfriend didn't call my friends forget me and at that moment I didn't know who I was "
" till I met you. You made me feel like the world was gray you made me want to make difference. And I feel in love with you. I loved every about you especially those green adorable eyes. But I shouldn't of fell in love with you. I shouldn't, because. because I have cancer "
Daisy stared at him with horror and pain, knotting her eyebrows together as tears broke loose. She hugged him with all her weight and strength. As if he might disappear any moment. As if he'll turn to dust in her arms.
" No no no no this isn't fair. This all isn't fair. Stop lying, I'm begging you to tell me it's a lie p-p-p-please n-n-nooo "
He pulled away from her, as his tears dried up and he cleared his voice whispering " I'm going to end my life tomorrow morning , I set it all up and the doctors agreed since it's all causing me too much pain. I rather die now. "
Daisy fell of the hospital bed , a lump in her throat. Covering her mouth as a ocean poured out her eyes. She shirked as she shook her head. There was a tightening pull in her chest, a pull that broke the bits of her heart that were half way healed.
" No please stay " she shook her head her red sunshine hair falling to her face.
He looked at her with pleading eyes as he whispered " stay the night with me , princess "
She nodded pushing her hair back.she got off the ground even though her legs felt like cooked noodles. She climbed to the bed as he wrapped his arms around her making her feel like it was all going to be fine. It was all going to be okay.
She turned to look at him staring to his blue eyes that were ice and to his blonde hair that looked like snowflakes. As she smiled a sad smile knowing this was the last time they were going to be together.
He took the strand of her hair that fell to her eyes and placed gently it behind her ear. Smiling at his Princess. Knowing all this wasn't going to be fine but for her he would do anything.
" I'm ugly I know , now stop staring at my face " she looked down to the pillow as he chuckled as he pulled her body closer to his whispering " ugly Meaning drop dead gorgeous "
He raced at finger across her soft cheek " I love your fire like hair that's the light to my darkness, I love your green forest eyes that bring life to my cold eye. I love your smile that makes me believe that I'm a good person "
She hide her head as she blushed, he grabbed her chin and whispered " how about me princess, I know I'm gorgeous but i want you to tell me "
She raised her eyebrow thinking of a wicked plan. She smiled sweetly as she touched his cheek " you are gorgeously hideous as a rat that's covered in shit "
His mouth fell open as he grabbed her and tickled her. She yelled and screamed through her laughs.
" Say I'm sorry , Prince Jace you sexy gorgeous beast. I'll always be yours. "
" N-no " she choked on her laughter. And he only tickled her harder then she jumped on top of him. And he couldn't do a thing because of his wound. She brought her head closer to his as he smirked.
" I'm sorry , you sexy beast " she whispered as she kissed him. He pulled her closer as he held her head and she ran her fingers through his hair. The world seemed to fade and they were suddenly not broken. They were healed. And happy for the first time in years.
Daisy cut the kiss panting as she laid her head on his chest whispering " I'm yours "
