i didn't move. i didn't even cry. i just stared at all of my hair in the sink. it was all gone. chemotherapy is supposed to help. one of the chemicals removes hair. i can't let joey see me like this.

i quickly put on a beanie and an oversized hoodie. it smelt like joey, maybe because it's his. oops? i made my way to the group session room and walked inside, seeing no one around. maybe it's because i'm three hours early. whatever i need a good distraction. i take off my beanie to adjust it and hear a familiar voice startling me.

"quinney?"

gasping, i quickly put the beanie on and look at him in shock, "j-joey.. what are you doing in here?!" nothing. he says nothing. instead he pulls my lips to his soft ones, immediately kissing him back.

he pulls away, taking my beanie. i bit my lip and looked down, only for his hands to cup my face forcing him to look at me.

he speaks softly and quietly, "quinn. you are one of the most strongest people i have ever met. your toughness is what made me fall in love with you. you are literally my inspiration. you have made such an impact on my life, and this.." he motions to my almost bald head, "is not a reason to not be the person i fell in love with. cancer is not going to make you who you are. you are not going to let it control your life okay?" 

speechless, i nod and hug him. "thank you joey." he smiles at me and mumbles a 'you're welcome' while caressing my cheek and kissing my forehead.  he stops and looks at me, smiling then nervously stuttering. "quinn.. will you be my girlfriend?" 

smiling widely, i opened my mouth to answer but was cut off by a sobbing girl who looked at joey. "babe! i was so worried." 

JOEY'S POV

...shit. lexi.

i looked behind me for quinn but sighed when she wasn't there and walked to lexi.
