"Why-why are we going there?" My mum said with a shaky voice.
"We don't know anything yet although we do have some suspicions"
Then the doctor turned to me,
"Have you had any nosebleeds lately?"
"Yes but those were because of the time zone change"
"What about bruises? Do you have any of those?"
"Yes a few and I don't really know where they came from" I answered
"What does that mean?" My dad asked worryingly

"We think it might be  leukemia but we don't know for sure so that's why we have to run some tests"

Finn POV
I was laying down on the hospital bed with my leg in a cast and bandages only my arms and face. Then a doctor came in and took off my face bandages and replaced them with bandaids. He tightened my arm bandage a little bit and said,
"Well son, I think you're ready to go"
I sat up straight and it hurt like hell
"You're also gonna need one of those"
He pointed at a wheelchair
"But before you go, someone wants to see you" I looked up at him "Millie Brown she's in room 11"
"What about Sadie Sink?"
"She's in room 13 but you can't visit her yet since we're performing open abdomen surgery at the moment but she'll be allowed visitors in two days"

I sat in the wheelchair and went to Millie's room I knocked on the door
"Come in!" That must've been her mom's voice

I rolled in and saw Millie on the bed, her arm was bandaged and there were a lot of different cables stuck to her.
"Hi...um...I-I'm-m-my namesfinnwolfhardnicetomeetyou"
Omfg what was that they're gonna think you're a freak or some shit

"Hi Finn nice to meet you, we heard some great things about you" her mum greeted me. Wait. Millie talks about me with her parents? "Well were gonna leave you two to talk" and they walked out of the room.

"Hey mills how are you?"
"Not so good" she patted her bead so that I would sit next to her, when I did she sat up, put her arms around my neck and kissed me. It wasn't a short peck or a long make out session, it was a five second kiss and it was amazing, as always.

"The doctor just took my some of my blood, they suspect I'm sick Finn"
"Well you know they will cure you i mean this is the hospital and how hard can curing a cold be?" I chuckled but Millie wasn't giggling or laughing I couldn't even find a smile upon her face.

"You don't understand Finn, I'm sick not it's-just-a-cold-sick but sick-sick. Leukemia Finn"

The smile quickly faded, at first the words didn't make any sense; leukemia? What is that? And then I remembered, what we learned in biology last year. 

Leukemia.

Blood Cancer.

Cancer.

Millie might have cancer.

The first thing that comes to your mind when you hear cancer is death. Dying. That's what people do when they're sick. They don't laugh, they don't smile, they shave their heads, and then, they die. 

That's how grown ups explain it to little kids: cancer is a sickness, usually people die, but then they go to heaven and they can run around and play.

Now that I'm older I know more. I don't believe in Jesus or Allah or a magic unicorn that takes people to their dream wonderland after they die.

I believe that when you die, you stop being, all you can feel is emptiness and then everything goes black. That's it. That's was your existence in this world. You're done.

"Finn are you ok?" Millie asked waking me up from my 'trans' "they aren't sure I have cancer yet, you know? It's just a suspicion. Even if they do confirm it nothing will change? Will it? The doctor said that 8 our of 10 kids who suffer from leukemia live"

I didn't know what to say,
"I need some milk, I have to drink 6 cups a day because of my leg, do you want something?"
"Could you bring me some green tea?"
"Yeah sure, I'll be right back"

I'm such a douche she might have cancer and I'm the one who can't handle it? This is wrong. And I left her.

I went to the cafeteria to get the drinks and heard two voices, one of them was very familiar. It was my doctor and then I recognized the other one he was Millie's doctor. I hid behind a table behind them so they wouldn't see me and listened,
"The boy is ok just a broken bone, nothing too serious. What about the girl?"
"I thought she had leukemia, you know all the symptoms: unknown bruises, weird nosebleeds, throwing up, being tired all the time, but then I took her blood to the testing room"
The doctor sipped a little bit of tea and continued,
"You know how you can have either Rh+ or Rh- blood types and the A,B or O?"
"Yeah" both the other doctor and I were intrigued by now
"She has a different type of blood, it's nothing I've ever heard of before it's not Rh+ or Rh- it like both and then a little of everything else"
"We have to conduct some experiments"
"She's underaged and She's still alive That's  illegal"
"Imagine how rich we will be when we find out the truth about her"

"Fine, but we have to move her to Hawkins Labs"

Didn't proof read!

Peace out ✌🏻
