16 Things To Do Before I Die

Chapter 21

I groaned in agony as I felt the sudden ache spread inside my body in an endless form.

Sitting up I suddenly felt nauseas and dizzy. Not wanting to be sick next to my boyfriend I lied back down, brining my knees close to my chest praying for all the pain to go away.

Unable to move due to my sudden Illness attack I started crying in surrender.

«Jason» I managed to say throughout the pain.

I watched him slowly open his eyes, his smile soon disappearing as he saw the condition in which I was laying.

« Please take me to the hospital » I begged before he could ask anything.

 Not losing any minute he rapidly yet gently picked me up, placing me as fast as possible in his car and drove away.

« I’m so sorry » I whispered while closing my eyes, the pain becoming too much.

I suddenly felt the car pull to a complete stop, as I was suddenly taken in his strong embrace and carried inside in bridal style, my eyes still shut, concentrating on keeping my heart beating.

« It’s Jason McCann» I heard people whisper to each other.

« Call the police! » another once screamed.

« Wait! Please just wait…just please save her, I’m begging you» he begged the doctors.

« She’s all I have left » he whispered.

I was then taken away from Jason’s warmth and transported uncomfortably into a gurney.

« Just please save her » I heard Jason beg again until I felt the unwanted darkness take over my body making everything shut down.

I got woken up by the sound of my own heartbeat, slowly opening my eyes I took a look at the room I was situated in; a hospital room.

I sighted deeply and looked at my right, noticing a worried Jason texting on his phone.

« Jason? » I asked in a form of whisper, my face immediately turning into a frown at the sound of my broken voice.

He started walking towards my bed, this broken smile plastered on his face; the same smile my mother gave me for the last 4 years.

« I’m so sorry » I admitted breaking down into tears.

Pulling me as close to him as possible he rubbed my back, kissing my head multiple times telling me everything was going to be okay.

« Its okay April, you’ll be back up in a couple of days then we can go back home and finish your wish list » he reassured me smiling.

I looked down ashamed.

« The doctors didn’t tell you? » I asked quietly.

His smile soon disappearing.

« Tell me what? » he asked confused.

I took a deep breath, preparing myself to tell him what I’ve desperately been trying to ignore for the last years.

« I’m dying Jason » I said, hurt filling my voice.
