I woke up and looked at my phone. It was 8:30. I got up and brushed my teeth and rinsed my face.

I then walked into the kitchen. I dug through the fridge looking for something good to eat. 

I decided upon grabbing some ice cream from the freezer. I pulled the tub of chocolate out and dug in.

After a while, I went and watched some Netflix until Kian came downstairs. 

"Hey Ray, can we talk?" He asked me. He sounded very serious.

"Sure," I said pausing the tv, "What's up?" I asked.

He sat down next to me on the giant couch. "Mom just called me. She said she got a call from the hospital. UNOS found you a pair of new lungs."

"No way." I said, "You're joking."

"I'm serious." He reassured me.

I can't believe it. I'll actually be able to breathe. I gave Kian the biggest hug I think is ever possible.

"When?" I questioned.

"I think later tonight or early tomorrow," Kian estimated, "She said you need to be there by 2 so they can re-evaluate you or whatever,"

"Thank you," I blurted before running upstairs. 

I went straight to Jc's room and slammed the door open,

"Guess what?" I announced.

Jc's sleepy eyes opened. "Huh?" he said quietly sitting up.

I plopped down next to him. "I'm getting new lungs today!" 

After he processed what just happened he gave hugged me. His smile was almost bigger than mine.

"We should go get some celebratory breakfast," He suggested.

"Definitely. Let me go change first," I replied,

He nodded. "Front door in 15,"

I went back to my room and changed into a big sweatshirt and some black athletic shorts. 

I then brushed out my hair and quickly braided it into two dutch braids before walking downstairs.

"Where are you guys going?" Kian asked us as we got to the front door.

"Celebratory new lungs breakfast," Jc replied putting on a pair of vans.

"Ray you know you can't eat now if your surgery is later today," Kian said as if I already knew that. I in fact did not know that.

"Why not? I ate ice cream 20 minutes ago?" I questioned.

"You are getting a major transplant. You can't eat before. you could die," He added.

"Well fuck," I sighed, "We can still go if you want. I just won't get anything,"

"You sure?" Jc asked.

"Yeah. You wanna come Kian?"

"Only if Jc is paying," Kian said hopping over the couch.

I put on a pair of Nike slides and we left.

We pulled up to a Chick Fil A and went in to eat. 

Kian got Chicken minis and Jc got a chicken breakfast sandwich on a biscuit. On top of that, they both got my favorite, hash browns.

I don't think I could ever feel hungrier than right now. I continued to sip my water mesmerized by their food.

"You sure you don't want some?" Kian joked.

"Fuck you man," I replied.

Soon they were done eating and we drove back home.

It was almost 10 by the time we got back to the house.

"You said we have to be there by 2?" I asked Kian.

"Yeah," He replied, "So we should probably by 12:15 with all the traffic,"

I nodded and went up to my room.

I have just about 2 hours before I have to leave for my new lungs. Waiting is unbearable.

Jc came into my room and sat down on my bed.

"Yes?"

"I don't know," He replied.

"You don't know?" I questioned.

He nodded. I couldn't help but laugh at the stupid look on his face.

"Do you wanna do something?" I asked.

"Sure, what?"

"You pick," I said.

"We could rob a bank," He suggested.

"I could use the money," I said half-jokingly. I mean, I can't afford to pay for my surgery let alone all of the bills from the first hospital and even the mental hospital. That's years of debt. I know Kian paid for most of it but I can't keep making him pay for me, as much as I want to. I could go back to selling drugs.

"Ray, No," He stated,

"Fine," I groaned pretending to be upset, "I'd say we could film a video but that's a lot of work. What if we went in the pool?" I proposed.

"Sure," He said leavng my room, I presume to change.

I pulled a bathing suit out of my drawer and changed. It was a simple black bikini.

I then went downstairs and walked out to the pool.

I connected my phone to the speakers and played a Spotify playlist Kian had created titled 'Big Booty Remix'

Not long after, Jc came out with two towels in hand.

We goofed off in the pool for almost 2 hours until the buzzkill Kian came out and told me I had to get ready to leave.

I jumped out of the pool and wrapped myself in a towel. As I made my way to the door, Jc lifted me up and threw me over his shoulder before throwing me back into the pool.

Now not only was I wet, but my towel was soaked.

"JAY-CEE!" I yelled at him.

"How'd you get back in the pool?" He asked jokingly.

"Hmm, not sure. I think a pack of wild boars came and pushed me in," I said sarcastically.

As I got back out I threw the sopping wet towel across a lawn chair to dry. 

"We can share," Jc said wrapping me in his towel with a hug.

I couldn't help but smile.

We then walked back inside and I went up to my room to shower. I put on the same pair of shorts and sweatshirt from earlier and then Kian drove me to the hospital.

A/N~ What?!? I'm writing more of this story?!! I wasn't planning on it but I realized it left off so abruptly mainly due to my lack of writing skills. Whatever. Expect more chapters!
