I can't believe my cancer might actually be back. Just when I thought I would have a normal life my fricken lungs decide "oh maybe we should just stop working." I hate it, I HATE it, I HATE IT! Now I might loose Jake because who wants to date a girl who might die? Well Gus.... But he was different.

I got up and grabbed a tub of double chocolate ice cream and sat on my couch with a giant spoon.

Yes Hazel, because eating your feelings away will totally help you.

I set down the tub and went to the door. I thought I should at least talk to Jake. When I opened it I was surprised to see Jake standing there.

"Hi Hazel... I-uh wanted to talk to you." He said starting to walk in.

"Yeah I thought so." I said hiding the tub of ice cream. "Look I understand if you don't want to date me anymore." I frowned.

"No! Hazel, why would you think that? Just because your cancer is possibly back doesn't mean I'm going to dump you like a used tissue!" He said hugging me.

"I know but.....I might die." I said as I let tears roll down my face.

"Don't say that Hazel. Your gonna be fine, and your gonna live your life! Your going to die at the age of 90 in a bed sleeping." He said smiling.

"Okay that just sounded kinda creepy." I laughed.

"You know what I mean." He chuckled.

"I know....anyway, was that what you came to talk to me about?" I Asked.

"Yes, and no." He frowned.

"Oh, then what do you want to say?" I said noticing him fiddling with his fingers. This must be serious.

"Hazel, my family is moving to Canada." He said frowning.

"Okay, but you don't live with them..." I said trying not to show him how nervous I was.

"Yes, but they want me to move there for a year because my grandfather just died... They want to figure things out, and they need my help." He said gulping.

No. I can't loose him.

"Jake. Please don't go." I cried.

"Hazel, I don't think I have a choice." He reached out and wrapped his arms around me. It has never felt so good being in his arms.
