*Rachel POV*

Sitting in a hospital room on the most uncomfortable bed ever is not what I want to do for the rest of my life.

But seriously, the bed is like a bed of nails. I'm probably exaggerating just a little bit, but, come lay on this bed for a month. It's really terrible.

I let my thoughts escape me when Ryan, my best friend, walked through the door of my room.

'Hey Rach! I got you something.'

He said fiddling with 'something' behind his back.

'Well, what is it?' I asked impatiently.

From behind his back in one hand was a goldfish bowl.

'A goldfish bowl?' I asked unsure.

'Yeah but,' The other hand that was behind his back came right in front of my face.

It was so close it was blurry at first. He moved it away from my confused face so I could see it better.

A fish.

'A fish Ryan?'

'Well, what's the point of the fish bowl without a fish!?'

I giggled at him.

That's why he was my best friend.

'It's company for you.' He said.

I smiled.

I needed company. But not fish company.

'He looks like Nemo.'

I love the movie 'Finding Nemo' and I can't wait to see 'Finding Dory'.

'Well, then that shall be his name!'

Ryan declared.

'So, why did you get Nemo for me?'

I asked, curiosity running through my body.

'Because you,' He said poking my nose. 'Need to just keep swimming! Just keep swimming! Just keep swimming, swimming!'

He even danced. Ryan never dances.

I giggled at his actions losing my train of thought.

'So, Mr.Ryan Cowell. What's new?'

'Well,' He said blushing. 'I found a girl, and we've been seeing each other for a few weeks now.'

I slapped him upside the head.

What? He deserved it.

'And you didn't tell me sooner because?' I said glaring at him.

'I don't know, I was scared you wouldn't 'approve' of her'

'Well who is it?'

'Julia Roberts'

'RYAN TOMATO COWELL'

'I'm sorry Rachel, but she has changed. She isn't mean anymore. And my middle name is not tomato'

'I bet she hasn't changed Ryan! I bet she is just using you to get to your dad'

Yes, Ryan Cowell. As in Simon Cowell's son. The reason Ryan lives in Ireland is because his parents divorced and his mum moved to Ireland. He lives with his mum and visits his 'money making I have no time for a kid I'm busy' dad.

'My middle name is Andrew, Rachel'

'Oh, I knew that.' I snapped at him.

'Leave me alone Ryan''

'Fine, Bye Rachel'

Goodbye Ryan' I said looking out the window waiting for that door to slam but it never came.

'Rachel I can't fight with you like this. I'm tired of fighting and I don't like it. I'm 99.9% sure you don't like it either. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner'

'I'm sorry too. I overreacted about the whole Julia thing, but, just so you know, I still hate her' I said laughing through my tears.

I gave him a hug and moments later my nurse walked in.

'Good afternoon Mrs. Jameson'

'Hi Nurse Lauren.'

'Mr. Cowell' She said nodding at him.

'You have a treatment at 10:30 tomorrow morning.'

I sighed. This is now my life.
