After the amazing night that I had with Skylar last light I felt like nothing could stop me. Then again I am dying in a matter of weeks, but that isn't important right now. The only problem that Skylar and I have run into is money. She kept texting me all night. I could tell just how excited she is to do this but she kept asking all of these questions like: Is air sickness common? Do you think we'll get food poisoning at one of these places? ,and the oh so popular, Where are we going to get the money for this? I told her that I didn't know just yet but that I could pull some strings to get us everything we need... which was a lie. I do know exactly where we can get most of the money. The truth is that I've known that I have cancer for a long time. About hmmm... 4 years. You see the medicine used to work. It had been holding off my cancer for a long time until now. I guess I have built up a tolerance to it . Anyway before I even got diagnosed I could tell something was up so I started saving money, lots of it. I would work and work, even If the doctor said it wasn't good for me. When money got sent for my birthday or any holiday I saved it. Not to mention that I usually saved money anyway before all of this happened so you can add that on. I'm not entirely sure how much I have but I think it's a lot.
I'm planning on meeting Skylar at the donut shop with the cool music. I just love going there to chill out. I got there at about 1:30 and she was sitting right there waiting for me at the table.
"I knew you would get here first."
"Why is that?" She asked tilting her head to one side like a puppy.
"Because I knew you would be way too excited to get here a second after 1:30"
"We know each other way too well because I knew that you would be after me because you always get really nervous." She said with a sly look on her face.
"What is that supposed to mean!"
"It means that you hesitate to do a lot of things, speaking of which we need to talk about this trip. So you said you want to go to each continent. Well we could pick one place in each one that we like that best and go there. That should save on cost too right?"
"Oh yeah about cost I've got most of it covered." I said with the biggest grin knowing that she would love hearing this.
"What? But how? You aren't a drug dealer are you? Because I can not be associated with a drug dealer I am sorry but I just..." She stopped when I started laughing hysterically at the way she reacted.
"No I am not a drug dealer okay! I've just been saving up for something like this for a long time and if there is anyone I would want to spend it on it would be you."I could see she started to blush.
"Look you don't have to do this."
"But I want to so what ever is in that account we can use and then try and make more to make up for the rest."
"Wait that isn't fair." She said looking like she felt bad.
"It is to me." She looked confused again"If I have all of this money it would be selfish of me not to spend it on the one girl I have spontaneously fallen in love with, now wouldn't it?" She blushed an even brighter shade of red.
"Fine I guess if you feel the need to do this then lets plan this trip out she said as she pulled her laptop out of the laptop bag I didn't even realize she had. When she turned it on I smiled so hard my face started to hurt. Skylar immediately got embarrassed and covered the screen. It was her screen saver. It was a picture of us at the roller rink making goofy faces. Just then I realized just how much I love this girl.
