Chapter Five.

•Alex's pov•

John had texted me to tell me what hospital he was at and I skipped school to go visit him. 

When I arrived at the hospital room he was in, he was asleep. He looked so peaceful...

I asked the doctor, who came in, what was wrong.

“John's just.. he's sick. But he'll be okay.”

“What is he sick with?” I asked.

They didn't answer, they just left.

John woke up after an hour or so, he smiled when he saw me. He opens his mouth to say something but I cut him off.

“..what are you sick with?”

“Some unknown illness that's slowly, slowly killing me. I.. I'm just trying to live my life to the fullest.. I've only got a few years left to live so.. yeah..”

I froze a bit. “..you're gonna die?" I frowned.

“yeah, but it's okay! Atleast I'll die happy, you know?" John smiled. He seemed to always be positive no matter what.

It's what I loved about him.. uh- platonically.

John slowly sat up, though, for once, he did need my help with that.

“thank you,” John smiled.

“Of course. Hey.. I heard there's a carnival here in town, they set up yesterday. Maybe i could take you? I could help you stand up!”

“that would be lovely! I gotta ask the doctor first though..”

Alexander nodded. “Alright. If they say yes, we'll go tonight. For now.. would you like some McDonald's?”

John grinned and nodded.

His smile was so cute..

//I feel like ending it here but only cause I want the carnival chapter to be extremely long-
