Capter 5

I wake up and I’m lying on top of Louis back, I smile. Last night was fun “Good morning boyyyyy” I say, “Oh are you back to normal?” he asks smiling “I was never normal to start with!” I smile “True” he says and I get up so he can “my back hurts! Why did I let you jump from a tree onto my back? That hurt!” he whines in pain, weakling “You are a winger” I say folding my arms “Me? How dare you Mia Bridge, the girl who gets high” he says “Rubbish” I say and walking away “I have to go to see my Nan and grandad. I ran away last night” I say “Oh, will I see you again?” he asks hurt, “Maybe” I give him a wink and walk away.

I get to my house and walk in “Nan?” I say at loud and shut the door, “Hello?” I walk around the house but no one is home, weird. I go to the kitchen for food, I’m so hungry but there is a letter on the fridge “Mia, we went to the hospital Stiles is in a lot of pain” I read at loud. What kind of pain? I get my phone out and call Nan “Hello? Nan it’s me Mia. What’s wrong with Stiles?” I asked panicked “Mia… I think it’s best if you come down here” I hear her voice say “Okay, I’ll find a way to get there” I say and hang up. Louis can help me, I quickly run to the tree and he is sitting there “Louis!” I shout getting closer to him “Mia what are you doing here?” he ask “I need to get a ride to the hospital, Its Stiles” I say and he nods and we run to his car and we both jump in and we drive to the hospital.

Louis parks and we both run into the hospital “Excuse me, I’m here to see Stiles Bridge” I say and she checks on the computer “Are you both family?” she asks us “I’m his big sister, and he is…my cousin” I lie, I don’t know why “Yeah” Louis goes with the flow. She open the doors and we go to room 217 and I knock then go in “Stiles” I say and run to his side, he was sleeping “What’s wrong with him?” I ask Nan, “Well, we were at home and then he started to scream and said his chest hurt really badly so we rushed him here and they said…he had cancer… lung cancer. The pain was fluids around the lungs. He just came out of operation from getting most of the fluid out and now we have to wait and see…” she says in tears. No. Stiles can’t have cancer. He is too young. I start to cry, I can’t lose him. Not yet. I then get up from the chair and just look at the ground “Mia are you okay?” Louis asks “I’m fine” I say, I’m not fine, who the hell would be? “Who is this?” Pop asks to Louis “Oh sorry, I’m Louis Tomlinson and I’m 23 and I meet Mia last night and we hanged out all night doing pranks” he says “Then slept under a tree” he added, all eyes around the room go wide “No! No! Not that way! I’m a good boy! I don’t do that stuff” he says embarrassed, I chuckled and I see Nans eyes relieved “So do you want me to go or…” Louis asks “No no, it’s up to you. We don’t mind” Pop says, I think he already likes him. “I need some air, I’ll be right back” I say and walk out and get outside.

I find a quit place and sit down with my knees up to my chest and my head between my knees and burst out and cry, why Stiles? Why does everything bad happen to him? He is such a good kid! I look up at the stars “Really?” I ask to whoever is up there “Why him? Why not me” I ask “Because they thought he can win it” I hear Louis say “Go away” I say “I would if I could but I can’t so I won’t” he says, “Why can you go?” I ask “Because a beautiful girl is crying and needs a hug” He says while sitting down next to me and wraps his hands around me and I can’t help but cry “It’s going to be okay” he says “I know it’s hard but it’s going to be okay” he says “No, you don’t know how it feels” I say, “yes I do, my dad died from lung cancer” he says, oh… “I’m sorry” I say “Nah, he died when I was a kid, I was about 11” he says, “I grew up without a dad and look at me, I’m doing fine” he says happily and I smile.

After Louis and I cuddling and me having my crying session we decide to go back inside, the lady from before looked at us and we were holding hands “Are you sure you guys are cousins?” She asks, and we nod “Fine” she says in a monotone and let us through and we go back to see Stiles. We walk in and Nan and Pop were talking to him, I let go of Louis hand and walk to him “Hey Batman” I say smiling “Hi Cat women” he says struggling “How you feeling?”  I ask him “Great” I laugh “But really?” I ask him serious “A bit sore and what happened?” he asks me “oh…” I say and look at Nan and Pop “I think we are going to get coffee, care to join Louis?” Pop asks “Yep” he says and walks out with them, “Stiles… I have to tell you something. When your chest started to hurt at home, Nan and Pop took you to hospital. They said it was fluid around your lungs, which caused the pain. Then they said you have Lung Cancer, and they got the fluid out that’s why you have stitches on the side of you” I say crying “Oh…So I have lung Cancer?” He asks me “Yeah Stiles you do, and I’m so sorry” I say “It’s okay” he says and then we change subject “Were did you go?” he asks “Like when you left the house?” “Oh, I went to my place and meet someone. His name is Louis Tomlinson, we hanged out all night and went to places and meet his friends and then we slept under the tree” I say smiling from the memory “Do you like him?” Stiles asks “I don’t know yet, maybe” I say, “Cool” he says smiling at me, probably because I have found someone “Now I’m going to get the nurse to come check on you” I say and let go of his hand and walk out and call for a nurse.
