I throw on my coverse and my polo hoodie and walk out the door and down the street to the local donut shop. I walk and see my order all ready in a brown paper bag and my lemonade next to it.

I walk over grabbing it and handing a $20 to the cashier telling him to keep the change. I walk over to my normal seat but I see a brown haired boy sitting there. I lower my eyebrows and let out a sigh.

I always sit in that seat! It's known as my seat and surly everyone knew that!

I decide maybe I can may friends with stranger as I don't have any real ones. Most of my "friends" hang out with me cause if my mom and dad's money but Otto, jawn and grace are my ownly real friends.  They stick with me through thick and thin. If I died tomorrow no one would care besides them and my parents.

How I know that? Well a couple weeks ago I was admitted into the hospital for stage 4 brain cancer and you know what? No one showed up besides Otto, jawn and grace to make sure I was okay. That's how I know.

I walk over the brown haired boy and look at him. He was drawing something but I couldn't tell what as it was just the beginning.

"Excuse me can I sit with you?" I question softly and he looks up.

He looks at me then my hand that's holding my donut bag, then smiles.

"Only if you share your donut with me" he smirks and I let out a laugh setting down my bag and grabbing the knife and napkins out of the bag.

"I hope you like the ones with the gummy worms cause that's my favorite" I say cutting it in half and giving him the worm.

"My favorite" he takes a bit if the donut. He whips his hands off and then goes back to drawing.

I play with my hands for a bit and watch him as he draws.

"What are you drawing?" I ask taking a bite of my half of the donut.

"A ring of flowers with a rose dead in the middle" he explains.

"Why a dead rose? Roses are beautiful"

"It's not about the rose. It's how even if something beautiful it can be dying but everything around it is alive so it must be too" he says snatching my lemonade and taking a sip.

"Hey! Now I have to get another straw!" I grumble.

He shrugs his shoulder and smiles. Then frowns.

"You're awten knight!" He crys.

"Uh yes, yes I am"

"You're dad works with my dad....well use to. He got fired" I lower my head at his words.

"I'm sorry"

"Not your fault it's your dads. And no offense but your dad's a real bastered! He thinks cause hes rich he can do whatever he likes. You're not like him at all. I thought you'd be bratty" he says not holding back his words.

"I uhm." — I feel a horrible headache coming on and my stomach starts to churn — "I'm still sorry. I should probably go" I say standing up and running to the bathroom. The door slams behind me and I bend over the toilet throwing up my donut and lemonade.

I heard the door open and I sit up to see the brown haired boy walking towards me with a worried look.

"Awsten are you okay?" He question and I slowly shake my head no.

"What's wrong?" He adds.

"I have a horrible migraine and I feel dizzy. Like the whole is spinning" I say honestly. "Can you call my mom here's my phone. The password is 2112" he nods taking my phone and calling my mom.

"Hello misses knight? Hi this is Geoff uhm awsten joined me for breakfast and he's not feeling good and saying he feel dizzy and told me to call you......uh yeah we're at the donut shop next to the Payless shoes on Miller Rd....okay I'll see you in a minute.....bye" be hangs up handing me my phone.

I go to speak my I turn my head and start throwing up again. I hear the door slams shut and know Geoff left me.

"Fuck" I sigh. All of a sudden he's next to me with a glass of water and a little smile.

"Here this helps" he says. I take a sip and lean against his shoulder as the dizziness wears off. He rubs his hand threw my hair making me feel tired.

"If you keep doing that I'm gonna fall asleep which isn't good" I mumble.

"Why isn't good?" He questions

"I can't fall asleep while dizzy it can put me into a coma"

"W-what?"

"I have stage 4 brain cancer so I can fall asleep while feeling dizzy and having a headache"

"How bad is it? Are you on chemo?" He ask.

"It's bad there is no reason for chemo the doctor said it's already gone to far and there is no saving me" as soon as I finish a knock is heard and my mom enters with a ER person next to her.

They help me up and out to the truck Geoff following the whole way.

I just met him and he's acting like I knew him my whole life. He would of made an amazing friend. An amazing person be around.

Before everything goes black I softly here Geoff say a soft "be safe"

"I just met him...he asked to sit down next to me by the window and said but he had to split his donut with me. He really didn't have to...I would of let him sit there anywas it was more in a joke but he did and gave me the gummy worms that was on it also. He smiled and talked to me like I wasn't a complete stranger and that we'd known each other for years. I always assumed richer kids where bratty but I was so wrong. Not all of them are.
He asked me about my drawings and generally cared. He looked so Happy. My drawing was of a beautiful rose that was dying with a ring of growing beautiful flowers around it and I think it perfectly projects awsten. He was suffering but beautiful and slowly dying but he surrounded everyone with happiness and bright colors. I hope to one day meet you again awsten knight" Geoff softly days laying a rose and his drawing softly on awstens grave and walking over to awstens crying mom and hugging her tightly.

"He's better now" he softly says and his mom brakes down on his back as it starts to rain.
