T- well....I went into the doctor a few weeks ago..
S- yeah??
T- sky, I have brain cancer..
S- god no, you're joking Please tell me your joking..
T- no I'm not joking, I kept it from you the part few days....but I had to tell you..
S- tyler..
I started to cry. Taylor looked at me concerned and grabbed my hand.
S- this can't be happening..
T- I start chemo in two days.
S- oh my god okay I'll get a plane down tomorrow?
T- you don't need to come sky..I'll be fine.
S- but tyler
T- sky if I feel that you need to. Come down I'll let you know okay?
S- okay...I love you tyler.
T- I love you too skyler..
He hangs up.
"What is going on?" Taylor asks and we jump off the tree. I just land into his arms crying. "C'mon let's go home" he says and we get in the car and drive.
We walk in the door and everyone is instantly concerned why I'm crying. They all sit in silence as Taylor tries to calm me down. "Okay now what's going on?" Taylor asks. "Tyler went to a doctor a few weeks ago, he has brain cancer and is going into chemo in two days" I start to cry again. taylor hugs me and I cry into his chest. Tyler is my big brother. If chemo doesn't work out I don't know how I'll live without him.....just the thought of it made me depressed.
"I'm so sorry sky..." Nash says giving me a hug.
The guys tried to take my mind off it. But nothing worked. All I could think about was what if I lost tyler...
~~~~two days later~~~~
"I gotta call my mom" I say and take out my phone.
M- hey, sweetie.
S- hey mom, how's tyler??
M- tyler is going into chemo in just a few minuets.. were in the hospital right now..
S-oh...can I talk to him real quick?
M- sure hold on.
T- hey sky
S- hey Ty, you got this okay? I'll be thinking about you all day. And I'll call later tonight to see how it went. I love you.
T- thanks sky I love you too, trust me I'm not going no where.
S- I know you're not.
T- I gotta go bye
S- bye..
He hangs up.
"Everything going to be okay skyler don't think about it he's going to call you and he's going to be fine" taylor tells me but it doesn't help.
"I just feel bad that I'm not there supporting my mom and dad and especially Ashton, the poor thing" I say.
"Ashton's a strong kid, skyler" Nash says and I smile.
"Yeah. He is" I respond.
"And so are you so it's going to be okay" Taylor says kissing my cheek.
I was texting with Ashton. He was terrified.
S- it's going to be okay ash, be strong for mama and dad okay?
A- okay sky. I will.
He was a little fighter for everyone.
"I'm going to take Zoe on a walk, I need some fresh air" I say getting Zoe's leash.
I hook Zoe's leash to her collar and we leave the house. We walked down the road and I'll I could think about was tyler...
I stopped at the park where me and Taylor first met and sat on the bench. Great memories here, it made me feel some kind of happiness. It reminded me no matter what Happens to my brother, Taylor will always be there for me. I sat there for what felt like hours until I got a text.
Mom: hey sky, Tyler's chemo is done for today. Just thought I'd let you know.
S- thanks for letting me know, love you mom.
I get up and me and Zoe walk back home.
I walk in the door and no suprise, the guys were sitting there playing cod.
"Hey babe" taylor says not looking away from the screen.
"Hey" I respond and sit next to him on my phone.
I go on twitter and see pics maddy posted of her and dillon from yesterday. She was getting a ton of hate. And so was I, but I was used to it. "So what's going on, on twitter?" Taylor asks. "Oh the usual" I say. "I'm sorry babe I don't know why their so rude" he says and I smile. "Yeah" I say.
I got a call from my dad.
D- hey sky
S- hey dad what's up?
D- so Ashton isn't handling all of this too well..
S- I can't blame him dad he's only 7
D- exactly he's only 7, we got our hands full with tyler and were having a hard time keeping track of ash. We were wondering if you could possibly take care of him, just until tyler is back on his feet?
S- yes dad of course I will, are you sending him Alone on a plane??
D- yes, but one of the plane managers will be with him the whole time.
S- okay, when?
D- the soonest I can get a ticket for him.
S- okay just let me know, love you
D- love you too, bye.
"Boys I need your attention" I say and they pause the game
"So I talked to my dad, he needs me to take care of Ashton for a little bit, is that okay?" I ask
"That's totally fine sky" tay says and I smile.
"Well see how good of parents you two can make" Nash says and I roll my eyes.
"Sky will be fine taylor will suck" dillon says and I can't help but laugh.
"Hey I'd be a great father!" Taylor defends himself.
"Yes you would baby" I say and kiss him.
"Don't do that in front if your brother step one" Cameron says.
"Her brother will get a girlfriend one day it's not a big deal" Aaron says.
"When will he be here" matt asks.
"I'm not sure yet" I respond.
we all decide to watch netflix. But of course me and Taylor had a hard time decoding what to watch. "can we pleasssseeeee watch dance moms??" I beg. "Fine" he says and it plays. The guys only watched dance moms with me so they could hear all the fighting. But the dancing was gorgeous, that's why i loved it.
This episode was a dance for cancer...the dance was so beautiful it made me cry of happiness yet also sadness. "That was beautiful" I say wiping the few tears off my face. "It was" Taylor says and I was suprised. "I always wanted to be a dancer, but I ended up going to singing classes instead" I say. "And now you're a gorgeous singer so it all worked out" he says and I smile. i look down at my phone.
Mom- sky we booked Ashton a flight for 9 am tomorrow and he will arrive at 3 is that good with you?
S- yeah that's perfect!
"We need to pick up Ashton tomorrow at 3" I say.
"Okay" tay says.
"We should probably get to sleep" I say looking at the time.
"Yeah lets go" he says and we go upstairs and lay in bed.
"Sing for me" he says and I groan.
"Whyyy" I say.
"Because I love it" he says and I sing a little bit.
"For a moment, I'm a poet
Without words
Speachless cause you loved me at my worst
I don't deserve this
I'll let it surface and
All I know is
Today I woke up
Falling in love again"
"I think I'm falling in love again" tay says and kisses me softly.
