    I calmed myself down after a while. Brian took notice and stopped rubbing my back to keep his hands on the steering wheel. "You wanna talk about it?" He asked softly, still paying attention to the road. I took a deep breath in and dig through my shirt to get out my beanie, which I placed on my head afterwards. "I'll talk over Taco Bell. I'm hungry." I said, now hooking my phone up to the aux cord to play her music. "Okay, food first it is then." He said. I started up my playlist modified with anything she's ever sung. Music, albums, covers, everything. Brian didn't complain though I'm sure he wished I would play more of Finneas' work.

    We drove for what seemed like a short while. We only got through about 10 songs. Anyway, it was food time. And I wasn't paying. Though I also wasn't about to leave him with a huge bill either. I ordered what I normally do. We sat down at a table and waited for our food. I took a sip of my drink. "You gonna talk now or-.." I cut him off. "During food." He nodded in agreement.

    A few moments later the cashier called out Brian's name and he got our food. He handed me mine before sitting back down. "Now, talk." He said softly. "During my doctors visit, after the results were done I was a match for a transplant." I started unwrapping my food. "The transplant is a kidney one," I said slowly hopping I he would catch on. "I'm Billie's match for her transplant." I said. Brian's eyes widened. "And you're gonna do it?" He asked. "My choice is final. I'm doing it. I kinda wanted you to help me with finding their number." I said, now taking a bite of my taco. He paused in thought. "Okay, I'll help you." He replied, starting to consume his own food. We sat there for a moment eating before we started to talk again.

    "What was the name of the hospital you were in when they said you're her match?" He asked. "We could call them and ask for your doctor to give you the number or confirm you'd like to do the transplant. I'll pose as your guardian if it's needed." He said. "I believe it was ****** ***** Hospital." I said. He took out his phone and typed in the name. "Got its number. Do you remember your doctors name?" He asked taking a sip of his drink. "I believe it was Dr. Jackson.... No wait... Dr. Jason." I said finishing off my food. Brian started to call the number. "Hello yes, may I speak to Dr. Jason?" He asked over the phone. "Alright, I'll hold." He took a sip of his drink and looked at me. "I get to listen to elevator music for you. Be glad I'm helping this is boring as hell." He said. I laughed a bit. "Hello, is this Dr. Jason?" He asked. "I'm here with (YNH), the match for Billie Eilish'a transplant. I'm her dad, and she would love to do the transplant. Could you give me the hospital's address and number so I can book her an appointment to do so?" He asked, seeping his voice slightly so he didn't sound like a drunk teenager. He motioned for me to hand him his phone. I did so and he started typing in my note app. "******, ******* DR Correct? And the number is ***-**********?" He asked. "Alright, got it. Thank you very much." He said. He then hung up his phone and saved the note he made. "Well, we got the phone number and address and hopefully we can get you in today. Though you may have to wait until that food is gone before they can start surgery." He said, drinking more out of his drink. "You'll have to fill out a lot of paperwork. I'll help you with some of it though, the rest you should know." I said back, challenging his weak drink with my giant slurp out of my cup. Long story short we had a small competition on who could finish or drink the biggest sip of their drink. Note to self, if it feels like it's threatening to come back out don't drink anymore like that. TL;DR I threw up in a Taco Bell because I drank to fast and to much. 10/10 still gonna go to that Taco Bell.

   After I got in the car and Brian was done apologizing profusely to the staff for me throwing up, we made our way to the hospital. Brian started a phone call to them to set up the appointment. We got it to be around 7 PM today. At least we got it today. We arrived and he walked up to the receptionist with me following behind him clueless of what to do. He said he wanted to get the paperwork started before hand so that we could hopefully get in to the appointment faster. The receptionist handed him a workbook sized stack of paper and we went to sit down. He started filling the paperwork out with those crappy pens they give you.
    30 minutes and he's still working on it. It's now 5:13 PM. A little less than two hours left. I had to help him with a few questions and even had to steal him another pen because of how crappy these ones were.
    He finally finished it, after a bit over an hour. I started to play on my phone when he walked back up to the receptionist to turn in his paperwork. I started to read but then changed my mind as most of my favorites hadn't had an update yet. I started listening to music and eventually fell asleep on Brian.

    When I woke up Brian was softly shaking me. "We got 15 minutes, better get yourself awake so you can process what's happening." I bolted awake. I guess this is how it feels to be suddenly sober. I played on my phone for the remaining time and soon was called to enter my room. A friendly nurse led us down a hallway. "It'll take some time before we are able to start a small check up before hand, our equipment needs to be cleaned first. We normally do it before hand but since this is a transplant I thought it would be better for you to meet the person you are giving your kidney to before you start." She said, leading us to a room. She knocked. "Miss Eilish? Your match has come to see you before her and your transplant. Would you like to see her?" She asked softly, but enough to be heard through the door. "Yes, let that cutie in, I wanna see the person who is willing to risk their life for me." I heard Billie say, In the godly voice of hers. No way am I backing out now.
