Testing waters

Ch.49 just drive me to the hospital

"Are you sure your okay?" He asks sadly. "Yes I'm fine ok? I just need to get to the hospital to see Mel" I say. "Really Sav, I think you should just stay here you can barely stand up!" He says worriedly furrowing his eyebrows.

"Ryan I shouldn't even be here right now! You know what they did when I was telling you to stop talking to me what would they do if they found out you took care if me in your bedroom and was kissing me? Huh bad stuff Ryan!" I say frantically realizing what could happen by me even being here.

"I can protect you Sav!" He says stepping closer to me. "Well you were a bit late today Ryan! What happens next time when it's worse? You can't always protect me I'm too much of a burden to just keep lugging around!" I say a tear dripping down my swollen face. "What ever happened to us? Savannah when I first met you, you were a sarcastic why little bundle of happiness that I couldn't get out of my head and now? Now your sad all the time and I feel useless! I want to be with you and make you giggle and joke around with me but I can't do that if you don't let me!" Ryan said.

"People change Ryan, I guess I can't be that happy girl anymore. I don't know how or why I changed! But I know I can't go back" I say sighing. "I'll drive you too the hospital" he says sighing while grabbing his coat and keys. I nod and grab my clothes and the rest of my belongings and shoving them in my backpack and soon we are on our way to the hospital.

"Thank you Ryan" I say sighing before grabbing my bag and stepping out of the car. I walk into the familiar hospital and the lady reminds me of her room number before I walk down the corridors looking for her room.

Once I enter she lays there watching TV her mother no where to be seen. "Savannah! My mom said you would be coming" she says smiling. Her smile soon fades the seconds she looks up at my face. "Holy cow what happened!" She says worriedly. "Don't worry about it okay? Lest just fp as on you" I say sitting down on the bed smiling.

"Savannah not you too, enough of this how are you doing living with a brain tumor Crap I'm done with it okay? Just give me the scoop" she says. I chuckle before telling her of how I talked to Ryan and then got beaten outside of the school before Ryan "heroically saved me" and then took care of me until I was well enough to be where I was now.

"I swear to god if this darn hospital would just let me out of here I would have brutally slaughtered all of them" she said with clenched teeth. "Yeah well it's only Tuesday I have three more days of misery and who knows how many time this will happen before then" I say motioning to my face.

"Who knows what they will do if they found out I was at his house" I say sighing. "Don't worry okay? Sleep here for the night and then wake up have my mom drive you and then text me if anything and I mean anything happens, I would be there in person but..." She says motioning to all the equipment she's hooked up too.

"Let's stop with my petty drama and seriously for real talk about you" I say worriedly. "Alright well, I decided I wanted the bad news and so I have found out I have a irreversible brain tumor that will give me one more year or less" she says. "Wait irreversible what? I thought maybe surgery could be an option" I say sighing.

"Nope, nada no longer an option I just half to live with the time I got left" she says. I admire how calm she is about dying. Is dying that easy? Could all this be over just like that calm and no worries?
