Make A Wish [Narry au] (slow updates)

[7] Niall

They've done it.

The doctors said that they found the perfect person to complete my wish, they just have to talk to him about it first. Later, after the doctor had taken my wish (hopefully not for granted. Get it like- no? Okay.)

I guess I'm a little nervous to meet the mysterious boy. Like what if he's mean? Or homophobic? Or what if he's gay too and I end up liking him but he doesn't like me back? Why couldn't they have found a girl to be my friend? Life is too complicated.

I think I'm more excited than nervous, but I can't be sure because the last time I was really excited for something was before I had been diagnosed with cancer. Greg and I were able to convince my dad to take us across town to the ice cream cart. It was the best ice cream I've ever had.

My thoughts were interrupted by another doctor talking.

"Now Niall, I know you're excited to meet your new friend," I nodded enthusiastically, surprised my face hadn't split open because of the wide grin it held. "But, there's some stuff we have to take care of first." I felt the grin on my face shortly fade away, until you wouldn't tell that I had been smiling in the first place. He cleared his throat.

"I don't know if you're aware of this yet, but we have found traces of cancer in your liver, and now your thyroids. It's reoccurring liver cancer and secondary thyroid. We have talked to your mum about this already, and this time we're going to go with radioactive therapy. There are multiple ways we can treat you with this type of therapy, and we've picked the one we think will be better for your condition. We are going to transplant radioactive metal rods directly into your tumors. It's the most effective way of ridding the body of a tumor. We will be transplanting the rods inside of you tomorrow, so you have the rest of the day to say goodbye to family. I'll leave you now." He stood up from the special spinning chairs the doctor get to sit in.

"Wait! Why do I have to say good bye to my family?" I started panicking. Bye? To my family? I only just got out of chemo a few weeks ago. Chemo was a very traumatic time for me. I had been undergoing chemo on and off for the past couple of years now. I'd take it for a few weeks, three to four most of the time, and then they'd take me off of it for about a week or two. I don't remember much of the past two years because of it. I was always sleeping, or drowsy, or even in between sleeping an being awake. I missed out on Greg getting his first girlfriend, (which shouldn't be a big deal but they're still together and I still haven gotten the chance to meet her. I can hardly even remember her name. (Delilah? Diana? Denise? I don't know, something like that.)

He sighed. "Because of the amount of radioactive substance that these metal rods contain, nobody can come in contact with you. We'll put you in a special room, where me and a couple other doctors will be able to come in to feed you, and do the regular routine of taking your vitals and such."

"What about my wish? Don't you already have a person picked out?"

"Yes. That will have to wait until the two weeks is up, and your able to come in contact with others."

"Can I know who this person is? Or at least if it's a girl or a boy?"

"Hmm, I'm not supposed to say anything about this, but he's a boy. He comes to the hospital often, so we thought he'd be great for this. I need to go, we'll send your family in, okay?"

"Okay. Thanks." I smiled lightly.

A boy. I was going to be friends with a boy. I wonder what he's like.
