diza // everything I didn't say

Chapter 7

Lizas pov

The next few days at school are a blur. I don't pay attention in class now Matter much how I try.

I'll try so hard, to listen to what the teachers saying. But the words are all mixed up and I drift off again.

I'm sitting at my desk, at home, Thursday afternoon. Staring at my blank laptop screen and my phone rings.

"Hello?" I ask trying to sound happy.

"Hey baby, can I come over?" Asks my favourite person in the world.

"Yes, please come," I say happily. It feels like a huge weight has left my body. Maybe David's fine! They haven't let me see him or call him. In fact they hadn't told me anything about David at all.

Fifteen minutes later my door opens and David comes in. I scream and wrap my arms around him.

"Hey baby," he says into my ear.

"How are you???!!!" I ask.

"I'm okay," he says.

"Have the doctors said anything??" I ask impatiently.

"Don't worry baby, we can talk about this later," he says in a voice so calmful I forget about my worries.

He pushes me on to the bed. He gripped me tight against the bed and made out with me like it was the last *night* we would ever have together. Little did I know that I would be...

[ side note : if you  know what I meant by *night* I just wanna let you know that I don't really like writing that stuff but I hope you know what i mean 😉

I wake up in the morning feeling gross and sweaty. I see David laying next to me, fast asleep.

I look down and see I don't have any clothes on.

I blush and go to the bathroom and take a shower.

When I get out David is already dressed and changed. And the room is spotless, leaving any traces of last night gone.

"Hey baby," I say.

He smiles but I can see his eyes are sad.

"Liza, I need to talk to you," he says.

I get anxious and sit down.

"What?"

"You know how the doctors told you I might have that cancer?" He says.

I nod.

"Well... I have it. And they have No cure or medication for it. There's nothing they can do to help, so they've sent me home. All I've got to do is wait until I die, and I guess I shouldn't waste a day because..." he pauses and his eyes tear up.

"David?" I ask in a whisper.

"Liza, there's only three more days until the cancer will spread through my whole body and have killed me," he says.

I shake my head.

"Liza?"

"no," I say shaking my head.

"I'm sorry Liza. I didn't want to tell you last night. I just wanted us to have one more *night* together. Until I go," he says.

I get up and leave, slamming the door. I know what I did was selfish, but I was so mad at the world I couldn't even control myself.
