Even though Noah said she didn't care Haylee still felt like she needed to apologize. Noah hang up from calling Abby. "She is on her way", Noah said with his perfect smile. Haylee loved everything about him his smile, laugh especially his hair. "I'm so thankful you are okay Haylee, I wouldn't be able to live without you, you are the reasons I get up in the mornings.", Noah locked eyes with Haylee. Haylee felt special she felt loved and cared for. "Aw thanks Noah I'm glad I made it too." Noah sat Haylee up and gave her the longest hug Haylee has ever had. Abby finally shows up, Noah lets go of Haylee. "Did you tell her yet?", Abby tried to whisper to Noah but whispering isn't her strong suit. Noah looked embarrassed and quickly shook his head "Tell me what?", Haylee asked. "Don't worry about it.", Noah replied glaring at Abby. "Haylee! I'm so sorry I didn't know you didn't want to tell your parents yet I'm sorry.", Abby said as she sat down next to Haylee's bed. "My family needed to know, I'm sorry that I ignored you it wasn't the adult thing to do I'm sorry.", Haylee said grabbing the TV remote to turn on a show. "Haylee should we tell her?", Noah said with the biggest grin. "About?", Haylee questioned trying to remember something that she needed to tell Abby. "The cure.", Noah whispers "The what!?", Abby jumped up from the chair. "Oh Yeah! So since Begonias is such a rare disease they want to do research on my lungs so for no price they are going to do a transplant, of course it might be too late for me to find a match, but I have a higher chance of surviving now.", Haylee explained to Abby. "Haylee what? This is great news you are going to live!", Abby was excited. "Maybe I still have to find a match and who knows how much longer I have to live", Haylee said trying to flip through channels. "Haylee you can't think like that! You have to have faith that you will live!", Noah said quickly looking up from his phone. Haylee couldn't think positive so she wouldn't turn out disappointed. There was a knock on the door there was a doctor that came in he was new. "Hello I am your surgeon Dr. Wool". He was tall and very attractive he had these dark brown eyes with dark curly hair. "I'm going to get some blood samples and run some tests so we can find your match.", Wool said as he grabbed Haylee's arm. Haylee looked at Abby, Abby had her mouth dropped to the floor, Dr. Wool was exactly her type, but he was old. Abby realized Haylee was and quickly closed her mouth and gave Haylee an eye roll.

Dr. Wool left after talking about how simple the surgery is and that there is a chance of Haylee dying on the table. Haylee felt pain in her chest, she was about to have a coughing fit. Noah left for dinner because he refused to have hospital food. "A-abby, I'm about to have a fit I'm just warning you, I also need your help walking to the bathroom.", Haylee said as quickly as possible. Abby jumped up from her chair and helped Haylee run to the bathroom. "Abby call the nurses!", Haylee got out her last sentence before she started hacking up blood. Abby ran to the Emergancy button to call one of the nurses. Haylee couldn't tell how Abby was handling the situation she was too focused on the situation. The nurses quickly came in and helped Haylee cough the rest up and get her cleaned up. Haylee walked out of the bathroom with one of the nurses to see Abby siting in the corner completely emotionless. Abby wasn't much of a crier, but Haylee knew she was upset. "Are you okay Abby?", Haylee asked as the nurses helped put Haylee back in her bed. "Is that what you have had to go through every single time?", Abby asked with tears building up in her eyes. "Some are not as bad and some are worse, but I have gotten used to it by now.", Haylee said trying to find the right thing to say. Abby was speechless and pulled out her phone. Haylee knew it would probably be best to stay quite. 

Noah came back with the fast food, "I got you ice-cream.", Noah said with his cute smile. "Thank you Noah.", Haylee said as she grabbed the ice-cream out of his hands. Abby was still silent in the corner. Noah looks at Haylee and gives her an expression of worriedness. Haylee signaled with her hand for Noah to come closer. Noah reached over Haylee so Haylee could whisper in his ear. "She witnessed a fit and she's upset about it." Haylee explained to Noah. Noah walked over to Abby and told her something that Haylee couldn't quite hear. Abby stood up and walked outside Haylee's room with Noah. When they left she thought back to when Abby first got here she said "Did you tell her?" Haylee couldn't get it out of her head what did he have to tell her? Noah and Abby walked into Haylee's room again after about 10 minutes. Abby's eyes were puffed, anyone could tell she was crying. "I'm sorry for reacting that way Hay, I should have helped you.", Abby said still sniffling. "Abby! You did help me you did great and you had every reason to react that way.", Haylee said as she stood up from her bed to give Abby a hug. "I think I'm going to go home I love you, keep me updated okay?", Abby said as she went into the hug. "Okay I will.", Haylee said as she held onto Abby. Abby grabbed her bags and left. "Did you tell her to apologize?", Haylee asked Noah as she sat down on the couch. "Yeah I did, I think she shouldn't treat you different because of something you cant control.", Noah said as he sat next to Haylee. "She had every right to be angry, she didn't ask for her best friend to be dying of a sickness.", Haylee said as she looked at Noah. "The way she acted was not okay and you deserve better.", Noah argued with Haylee. "Yes I do, I don't deserve to be sick or dying, I wanted to start a family grow old with my husband, but because I am sick and possibly can't make it out alive that is all thrown away, so yes I do deserve better, but Abby did nothing wrong she is worried about me and have every right to.", Haylee said raising her voice. "She shouldn't give you the silent treatment!", Noah argued. "She wasn't! She was giving the sickness the silent treatment, and for the record so did I, I hid this for ages!", Haylee said with a choke in her throat, she could tell she was about to have another fit. Noah looked at Haylee with shock. "I'm sorry, you're right she is just worried and she shouldn't have to apologize for that.", Noah said softening his voice and relaxing his face muscles. Haylee was about to have another coughing fit, she quickly stood up and ran to her bathroom. Noah ran after her. "Call the n-nurses.", Haylee said before she started hacking up the pedals that were destroying her body. Noah quickly got up and pushed the button and ran back to Haylee. "You've got this I believe in you", Noah said as he grabbed a hair tie off Haylee's wrist and put her hair up. The nurses quickly came in and excused Noah from the situation. Noah was stood in the doorway watching his friend slowly die.

The fit lasted about 25 minutes before Haylee could catch her breath and get back in bed. Haylee was extremely weak and could barley talk. Noah pulled a chair up to the side of Haylee's bed side and grabbed her hand. Haylee was unconscious by this time, she slowly fell to sleep. What only felt like a few minutes later Haylee opened her eyes and sat up to see Noah crying holding her hand. "Hey Noah, it's okay", Haylee said trying to comfort him. Noah didn't even look up at her as if he never heard her "Noah?", Haylee said feeling tired still. Haylee heard a flatline, and quickly looked over at her monitor. Haylee was flat lining, Noah suddenly looked up and called for the nurses. The nurses came in with a crash cart, Haylee saw Noah stand out of the way in a corner. "I can't die, not yet please.", Haylee cried the nurses got the crash cart charged and quickly shocked Haylee. Haylee then went back into sleep, she was stable, but no one knew how much longer she had.
