"No, Harry. I'm not leaving her." I told him for what felt like the fiftieth time. They're keeping my mom overnight to see how bad her condition is and what they could do for her. "I don't need to sleep, I need to be with her."

He sighed, "alright, but I'm staying here with you."

"You sure? Cause' I'm not leaving until she does."

"I'm sure." he pulled me into a hug. We've been just outside my moms private room even when they would take her other places for tests and whatever else they need to do.

"Are you hungry?" he asked.

"No."

"Yes you are, I'll be right back." he let me go and I sat down in the cushy blue chairs.

My foot bounced up and down do to the amount of coffee I had. I actually am starving now that I think about it. The last thing I ate was Halloween candy and that was hours ago. Though hospital food doesn't sound that appetizing I'd be glad to eat anything.

I'm glad Harry's here to comfort me. I seem to be arguing a lot with him but he's staying calm which is great. I'm just moody about everything that's happening in my life. I hate crying all the time so I've been biting my tongue and staying strong.

Before Harry could come back my moms doctor passed by and entered her room. I sure hope he has more information for her, the good kind. All they told me was that she has lung cancer. They haven't said if it's terminal or treatable.

I sat patiently waiting for the doctor to come back out to give me any news. It's hard being in the room with my mom, they normally kick me out to talk to her anyway. But seeing her acting so strong motivates me to be strong too. As I stood there I made a mental promise that I would not break down in front of her.

Finally the door kicked open.

"Can you tell me anything?" I asked doctor Johnson.

He lightly sighed and waited a few seconds to speak. "Why don't you go and talk to her yourself." he spoke softly making me suspect the worst.

I slowly entered her room. She was laying still in bed staring out the window with a blank face. Her eyes lit up when they moved to me.

"Hey pumpkin." she gave a smile that I returned but fell into a fit of coughs that made my face fall.

I closed the door behind me and approached her bed.

Harry's POV

I skipped the line that led to the repulsive dinner foods the hospital had set out and went straight to the vending machines. Remembering Eliana's taste for orange pop I got two of those and a few different kinds of chips and crackers. It was quite the load and made my walk back difficult.

As I entered the main hallway I was almost run over by a small group of nurses and a doctor pushing a gurney with a bloodied guy on it. He looked strangely familiar, but how could I tell with them zooming by so quickly.

"Harry!" it was Jase. Meaning a probably know the poor bastard on the gurney.

"Why are you.. was that?" I began to ask.

"David? Yeah it was." he said sounding worried.

"What happened?"

"It was them Harry, they're looking for you." he locked eyes with me. It's strange seeing Jase so serious, but when he is you know that something bad is happening.

"You mean Finn?" I asked, the name tasted bad on my now dry tongue.

"Yeah," he sighed, "I don't know what this means. We came out of a bar it was dark and we were gonna walk home when a car drove by and shouted David's name, then I heard gun shots an dove to the ground. They shot him and drove away." he rubbed his hands over his face.
