Alexandra's POV
A brain tumour.
I have a god damn fucking brain tumour, 6 months left to live and I haven't even seen the world, I haven't finished school, I haven't had a proper relationship, I haven't got accidentally pregnant, I haven't had a job, I haven't done so many things and now? I never will?
These thoughts were hard to process, once Ric explained everything I cried my eyes out and went out for a fag, I'm pretty sure Ric went to bed while I don't think ill ever be able to sleep again.
Hey Alex, I've to go to the Lockwoods to pick up a cheque from the historical society for my mother's foundation, will you come with me? It might take your mind off a few things - Elena.
Sure, so I'm guessing you know? - Alex
Yeah I'm so sorry about that, Stefan and I will pick you up at noon? - Elena
Sounds good ill see you then - Alex
I went for a shower and got changed before waiting outside for Stefan to pull up with Elena which they did at the perfect time, just when I finished a fag. I mean if I'm dying anyway, we could see whatll finish me off first right? Brain or Lung Cancer.
When we came in Caroline approached us she couldn't find Matt and they sounded quiet urgent to find him. Caroline left to continue looking for him. While Elena, Stefan and I mingled around.
We all sat down to wait for Elena to get the cheque. "And here to Accept the donation to the Miranda Sommers Gilbert Scholarship Fund is Elena Gilbert" Carol announced.
We all started clapping as Elena went up to the front. "the historical society was my moms baby. She considered all of you her family and would be honoured and touched by this gift" Elena began her speech.
There was noises from upstairs and suddenly Johns body rolled down the stairs, Stefan rushed over to him,
"what's going on"
"is he alright" people started gasping.
We all rushed out to the hall, Stefan and I went back into the room once the sherif handled the situation, we left shortly later as Elena called Damon. They dropped me back off at the apartment, Alaric wasn't home. I started watching TV, not able to do nothing since it would make me think more, I must've falling asleep on the couch at some point.
When I woke up Alaric was home and so was Elena for some reason, "Elena? When did you get here?" I mumbled, rolling off the couch.
"well your uncle" she gave Ric a meaningful gaze "asked me to come over because of you know, take your mind of your brain tumour?" she sounded uncertain.
"I'm not dying yet Elena, and I don't been babysitters Ric" I frowned at both of them. "make me a cup of coffee yeah Ric? I'm going for a shower"
When I came back Alaric was standing in front of me with an odd expression "look Alex, I think you should move out for a while, it would be better for you to spend time with your friends, these are your last months after all"
"ehhh, you've never called me Alex before..." I trailed off frowning.
"Sorry, Alexandra" he corrected himself.
"is this a Joke Ric? You sound like Elijah saying my full name" I rolled my eyes at him.
I saw Elena whisper some thing to Ric "Al, you should move in with Elena for a while don't you think?"
"I'd love to have you over" Elena smiled as she came to hug me.
"okay... You know Ric if you didn't want me to stay you shouldn't have taken me here from Boston" I snapped before going to my room to pack a bag. I went to leave but Elena didn't move "Aren't you coming Elena?" I asked confused.
