The Last Wish

chapter two

I fixed my hat a little and nervously said

"co...come in."

The door swung open and reveled my

dad holding a a tray of food. I let out a sigh and I must of looked pretty disappointed because my dad said

"you thought I was 5 Es oh Es didn't you? sorry I just thought you guys might be hungry."

I didn't even bother to correct the way he said 5 sos.

Just then the door flew open and hit my dad in the back spilling the tray everywhere. "Smooth" a voice said sarcastically it sounded like Michael.

I looked up from the spilled food and saw a giraffe with blonde hair stuttering and trying to say

"I uh... I didn't um.. I... are you...I'm so sorry"

It was non other than Mr. Lucas Robert Hemmings in the flesh along with his rowdy band mates Calum, Michael, and Ashton who at this point were trying to stop laughing at luke. My dad got up and said

"that was quite the entrance."

and he pat Luke on the back. Just then everyone burst into laughter and bent down to help my dad clean up the lucky charms and coffee.

Luke looked up at me, his cheeks still bright red and he said

"Hey are these lucky charms? These are my favorite."

putting emphasis on favorite.

After the mess was cleaned up and we each had our own bowls of lucky charms we were able to get back to our plan for the day. Even though I'm technically not supposed to leave the hospital, the doctors were making a special exception for me.

Today I was going to be allowed to go to an arcade with the boys. They had rented out the entire place just for us. So the schedule for the day was like this:

11:00 meet the boys and take some pictures with them.

12:00 go to the arcade

2:00 have a jam session with the boys

3:00 q and a session

4:00 say goodbyes

I couldn't decide what I was most excited for.

Almost as soon as we were done going over the schedule the photographer took out his camera and told us to group together so we could take some pictures. he said

"make them good, this might be a cover story."

with that a tensed up. I didn't want to have millions of people see my ugly bald head and my tired face. Calum leaned over and whispered in my ear

"don't be nervous they'll only use the best shots."

Luke must've heard him to because he looked at me then whisper screamed

" your beautiful anyways."

I had to laugh at that although it seemed genuine.

I figured out pretty quickly that the boys are terrible at sitting still for pictures. Ashton and Mickey kept nudging each other and screaming things like

"hey get out of my spotlight." and "your arse is crushing my leg"

I couldn't help but giggle at that last comment. But what started out as then nudging each other turned into a full fledged friendly wrestling match.

They were rolling around on the floor in an entanglement of kicking and pushing until eventually Calum got up, walked over to them, and laid down on top of them. Luke followed and then they were all laying on the floor one on top of each other silently when Mickey broke the silence.

"I like that we can cuddle like this."

That's when I lost it. I fell to to the floor laughing and then Ashton said

"guys I think Melony wants to cuddle to."

That made me really surprised. almost as surprised as what happened next.

Luke got up off the pile and grabbed me and started hugging me really tightly. I'm a lot shorter than him so my face was right up against his chest.

he smelled so good.

I wrapped my hands around him and gripped the back of his shirt tightly. If I remember correctly it was a blink-182 shirt.

We were just standing like that for awhile then the rest of the guys got up and joined in the hug.

I think that was the best moment of my life. especially since my life is going to be shortened. And then just like that the moment is over and we all let go of each other.
