This Crazy Life

Chapter 27

So I'm considering writing a Hayes Grier fanfic after this is finished. Should I do it? Oh and to those of you that are invested in this story please leave some feedback in the comments. It would really mean a lot. Thanks!

Gracie's POV:

As soon as they left my room I grabbed my purse and bolted out of the hotel. I'm going to be late, the hospital is like forty minutes away. Sarah is probably already on her way. I hop in the car that the boys rented, they said I could use it any time. 

I send a quick text to Bart, letting him know I have it, and I get on my way.

***************************************************************************************************************

"So far your body has accepted everything we've given you. All of the antibiotics and shots, everything is running fairly smoothly. We should be able to start the chemo at the end of the month as planned."

The doctor finsihes his speel and looks up at me. That should have been good news, but I get the feeling that a but is coming. 

"The cancer in your lungs seems to be growing. The cells are multiplying more quickly than we had originally thought. The chemo should slow down the growth enough that we can get a medicine in you that will hopefully start killing the cancer cells.."

He talks on and on about my treatment, using huge words that don't mean anything to me. I have one question, and he better not bullshit me on this one. 

"Doc?" I cut him off.

"Mmm?"

"If the chemo doesn't work, and neither does the medicine, how much longer do I have left? Please just give me an honest answer."

Sarah looks at me with concern, the heartbreak is clear in her eyes. The doctor looks uncomfortable, he clears his throat.

"It's hard to tell at this stage in the game, Gracie. Like I said you're still in the middle stages, you have a chance at overcoming this."

"Doc, I don't come to this hospital every day for bullshit. Don't lie to me."

He sighs and for once looks me directly in the eye. "If nothing works, you'll have around 6-8 months left."

Shawn's POV:

I feel horrible. I knew I shouldn't have said what I did to Taylor as soon as it came out of my mouth. He's my brother, and I just ruined our relationship. 

I'm sitting in Aaron's room, icing my jaw. That kid can really throw a punch. Aaron, Hayes, the Jacks, and Mahogany are all sitting in front of me, not saying a word. Everyone in the group knows what happened, they all know that Gracie kissed me and that I told Taylor about it. I guess we were shouting a little louder than we thought. The only person who doesn't know is Gracie.

I saw her walk into the elevator right before everything went down. When she gets back she's going to be so devastated, especially now that everyone knows...

I hear footsteps through the cracked door. Looks like she's back. Someone kill me please.
