Jacob's POV

"How is she doing?" I ask over the phone. "Not so well. The hospital says she doesn't have that long," Her mom sobs. "I'm trying to get out of the tour earlier so I can see her but I can't. They're being really strict," I sigh rubbing my hand through my hair. "Is that Jacob?" I hear a voice. The phone gets handed to someone and a new voice talks. "Hey Jacob," They say before coughing. "Autumn, baby how are you feeling?" I ask. "I'm still alive," She sighs. "I love you," I tell her. "I love you too," She sighs before coughing again. "I don't want to let you go," I whisper as tears fall from my eyes. She sighs. "I don't want to go," She sighs and I could tell she was also crying.  "How long... Do you have?" I ask, choking on my tears. "A month or shorter," She whispers. I could feel my heart drop. "I'm going to get off of this tour. And then I am going to come and see you," I sigh. "Ok," She cries. "I love you," I tell her. "I love you too," She says. We hang up and I try for what feels like the millionth time to get off or tour. "Mark?" I ask, walking into the tour managers room. "Jacob you can't get off of tour," He sighs. "You want to know why I need to get off?" I ask. He sighs and looks at me. "My girlfriend is dying. With Cancer and she has less than a month!" I practically yell. His eyes widen as I speak. "Please," I whisper. "Yes, but go tomorrow morning, when you're calmed down," He sighs. I nod and ask him to book the plane ticket, which he does while I go back to my room. I try sleeping but keep thinking about what it would be like without Autumn. And all I can think about is not wanting to go a day without her.
