Since youve been gone

Chapter 6

Alexis P.O.V

July 2nd. I was sitting on my bed looking through the pictures on my phone waiting for my mom to tell me it was time to go. As I came to the last few I noticed the picture Tristan took of me an the little girl in the library. I smiled at the memory but my smile turned into a frown seconds later. The only reason he sent me that was because I'm not able to have kids since I have type 1 diabetes. The doctors say my body isn't strong enough. It's always been my dream to have a family, I live children but I've accepted it. Even though I've known pretty much my whole life I still get upset from time to time.

My thoughts then switched over to Tristan. I've been worried about him. His parents are also noticing that he doesn't seem as happy as he used to be. I was going to try and see him today because I got home from Arizona this morning but I have to go to the doctors to make sure everything is alright.

I decided to text him asking what he's doing tomorrow, he didn't answer right away but I saw that he checked it. I was about to text him again when my mom called me down so we could leave.

I walked out of the doctors office two hours later with a new meal plan, a prescription for some new medication and a big smile. Try said if I'm really careful and I watch my health I might be able to have kids when I'm older. They said its probably going to be very hard and I shouldn't really get too excited because the possibilities are very slim but all I needed was that little bit of hope.

I checked my phone when I got to the car and saw I had two texts from Tristan. The first one said that he wasn't doing anything tomorrow and the second one said I could come over tonight if I wanted to.

I replied and said I have to tell him something's so I would be over in a little while.
