Under the Same Sky

**YOUR POV**

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

The minutes felt like hours, and hours felt like years. I felt like the only thing I could hear was the beat of my heart. The bustle around me had become quiet. Jake finally came back into the room with a grim look on his face. 

"Hey honey, how are you?" he asked, coming over to hold my hand. 

"I'm okay, just tired. When can we go home?" I asked. 

"There's a bit of a hold up on that love, but don't worry, we'll be out of here before you know it okay?" He smiled meekly

I could tell something was up, but what? I felt so weak, but I wanted to go home so badly. Just then the door opened. 

Josh, Sam, Joy, Mackenzi, Danny, and Jenny poured in. They had flowers, bears, and a whole bunch of other stuff in hand. They all hugged me and smothered me, asking if I was alright. I was happy to have some energy around me. Some that wasn't depressing. The only person not as excited was Jake. He sat there in the chair, looking like he was about to cry. I didn't want to pry, but I also didn't want him to be sad. My heart broke every time. He excused himself to the bathroom and left quietly. 

"Josh, can you please go see if he's alright? I'm worried." 

He nodded, and followed Jake down the hall. 

**JAKE'S POV**

I went down the hall, far from her room, so she wouldn't be able to see me. I let everything out. I sobbed violently, slipping down the wall. I placed my head in my hands. I couldn't control the tears once they were spilling, and I wasn't going to try to. 

I feel a hand on my shoulder. I pause and look up. 

Josh. 

"Hey, she sent me out here to check on you."

I almost laughed. There she was, slowly dying, and she was still worrying about me. Of course, the doctor hadn't told her yet because she just woke up. Once she knew, she better start taking care of herself. I was going to make sure she did. 

"Are you okay? I mean I know you're not, but a little?" He asked, unsure what to say. 

"My head is racing honestly. I can't think straight."

"What's on your mind? Just get it off your chest." 

"Well, it sounds selfish. I feel like the universe is against me. The second Y/N and I get a chance to actually be together, its taken away so quickly." 

"Well, sorry to say bro, but the universe doesn't owe you shit. The timing truly does suck, but now you have to be there for her. Help her. Prove to her how much you love her and how deeply that goes. Make up for missed time." 

I was upset at how blunt he was, but he was right, and I didn't want to start a fight. I was too drained from crying. I nodded. We walked back to the room. 

When we got back to the room, the doctor was there. My heart started pounding for some reason. It was as if he didn't tell her, she wouldn't have cancer. I watched her face drop as he told her, and along with it, my heart fell. 

"Doctor, how long do I have to live?" she asks

"Well its hard to say exactly, but you could live up to 5 years or even more. The likelihood of the that happening would increase if we started treatment immediately." He explained

She nodded. 

5.

I had to do it soon, before it was too late.
