Its was 8 pm, way far after christmas celebration. Lily was sleeping with her hands holding Andrew's. Who was laying on the hospital bed, unconscious but his heart is still beating.
------- Lily's POV ------
"ANDREW, WAKE UP, NO,NO,NO,ANDREW!"
I was dreaming a nightmare. I held a hard grip to Andrew's head and praying. Praying for a miracle. All i hear in my head is,
'Wake up Andrew, Wake up' Over and over again.
I moved my hand to his jean's pockets and noticed there was a box under his pocket
The box was coloured in Blue, The exact blue i had worn on my prom.
I opened up the box and shattered to pieces. It was the picture of us.
Me and Andrew. His hands was in my hair and sprinkle dust was above us. I cried when all the memories come back. It had a note folded. I opened it and my heart stopped.
"Dearest Lily Rose Lavendile,
This goes to the person who has a name as beautiful as the person herself. Lily, I am sorry for not telling you this sooner. The day we had on prom, my head wanted to tell you to every bits that I'm not well. I love you, and i promise i would stay. This cancer thing, Lily Rose Lavendile, i know, i know i am strong enough to fight against this for you. I promise myself to stay for you, to grow with you and to cry watching our children grow old together. Lily, If i don't make it and you are reading this, thank you. For everything. The first time we met each other, the first conversation we had. The day we became classmates. The day we kissed. All memorable memories, i am nothing without you. A simple piece of trash. With you i am more than that, a louis-vuitton version of trash.
Lily, The day we met, the day we kissed, the day you cared. I knew, I found an angel, broken-hearted but optimistic to heal each other. I would never tell you about my sickness because i would never want to put you through a rough time. Lily Rose Lavendile, I love you with all my heart. And if my heart stops beating, know that my soul is beating in the heart of yours.
your love,
Andrew James
I was crying a river, and when i finished reading his last note. His heart stopped beating. It was too late,too late to save him.
I guess, not all good things stay. Not all miracles are permanent.

Months had passed after the tragic death of Andrew James. Lily tortured herself by saying it is all her fault and refused to eat. Maya came and talked to her how she should stop treating herself unhealthily.
"Its hard. I.I don't have him anymore. I don't have anyone to love me as much as he did" Sobbed Lily.
"It's hard, i know. But Lily, no one can replace him. He, himself said in the note that if he doesn't make it, know that his soul is still beating in your heart. You should make yourself happy and for him to see you happy from the above makes him the happiest man alive" Maya said.
Lily slowly regained her old-self months after months. It was a slow progress but it is working.

Short Story"So, how are you?" "About to actually slap you if you wont stop talking to me" That went quite well for an introduction. Lily is quite the not average girl in high school unless, you think shouting to people when they try to talk to you is normal...
