Chapter 17

I changed my shirt and grabbed my phone. I walked down the stairs and out the door. When I exited the house I looked over to Carson's house and both of his cars were in the driveway. I made my way across the lawn and knocked on the front door. Jackson answered and didn't hesitate to call Carson as soon as he saw me. Carson came down the stairs and smiled at me. "Hey" he greeted me. "Hey.. I have something to tell you" when I said that his face dropped and went from happy to worried. "It's nothing about our relationship I swear" I said and his face softened "ok wanna go for a walk?" He offered I nodded and we left.
"So what did you want to tell me?" Carson asked me "well I have cancer-" I got cut off by Carson breaking down into tears and squeezing my torso with all he had. "Nonononononono" he kept repeating and this moment felt like forever until I ended it "hey hey! I'm not gonna let it kill me" I reassured him and he took a deep breath and sat down.
