Thank God For Starbucks:

Hey Guys! I am not dead! Yes my exams just got over yesterday, that is, on 17 October. It has been sooooo long since I posted something and i an so sorry for that. But the exams were really stressful and there would have been no way that i would have fit writing into my stressful schedule. So anyway, it has been so long since i had updated this chapter and i had no idea on how to continue the story. But somehow i got an idea and i finished writing the chapter! Yay! It is a bit short because i just wrote in one day! Crazy, right? Anyway, today we are having a vote on celebrity couples! Yes. We have a war between Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift; and Austin Mahone and Becky G! So vote away in the review section. #Talvin VS. #Becstin! Review! And sorry once again. I hope you like this chapter!

Chapter 8:

Previously:

"Oh. Movie night!" She jumping up and down the sofa once but only with ten times more force that before.

"Christina, sit down for god's sake!" I scolded her.

"I have to call Uriah and Four! They are so going to enjoy watching a chick-flick!"

I laughed at her, although I hate watching chick-flicks myself it would be absolutely priceless to watch squirm as the hero said something extremely romantic to the heroine.

Oh tonight is going to be so much fun.

The night ended like this.

Tobias and Uriah were playing on my XBOX.

End of story.

Yes, our plan backfired. They blackmailed us into telling bad stuff about me to Mr. Turner, my new house's owner, and that they were not going to help me paint the whole place.

At first I just laughed and said, 'Yeah, whatever.'

That's when things got worse. They literally tied us to chair with tape and stuffed biscuits in our mouths so that we would stop screaming.

Yes. It was a terrible idea.

But eventually, we gave in, they pitied us and so we sat on the couch watched them as they played.

I woke up on the floor with popcorn sprawled all around me. Well, moreover, we were all on the floor.

I dusted the popcorn off my arms. Gosh, the floor was really cold.

"What the hell?" I said confused. Suddenly, Tobias yawned, making me jump slightly. That's when last night's events came into my mind.

We watched a horror movie.

Well that explains things.

I heard someone curse, as I was trying my best to remember last night's events.

"Why the hell am I on the floor?" He said as he sat up dusted himself off popcorn.

"Did we watch a horror movie last night?"

"Huh?" he said looking at me.

"Nothing. Forget it." I said as I got up.

"Wait. Uriah and I were playing…." He said slowly, "on your XBOX. And then….we watched a movie. Oh! Yeah, we watched a creepy movie. Remember we searched on the internet for those old horror movies. And-and yeah! But why are we all on the floor?" he said thinking deeply.

"I have no idea."

It was a Saturday. That's all I knew and that's all I care about.

I take a shower and dress up. As I walk into the living room, I see Christina stretching herself on the sofa.

"Good morning!" I said cheerily.

"Good morning.", she said sleepily, "What's for breakfast?"

"I don't know. What do you guys want?" I said looking at them.

"Mac and cheese!" They all said together, which made us burst into laughter.

"Okay, then. Mac and cheese it is then!" I said as I walked towards the kitchen.

Then suddenly my phone rang from the other room.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey Tris, um, it's me Rachel. Susan's friend." She said hesitantly. Rachel was Susan's best friend. I had met her a few times but I didn't know her that well.

"Oh, hey, Rachel. How are you?"

"I'm fine. It's-it's, um, Susan, she…."

"What is it? What happened? Is she alright?" I asked concerned.

"She-she fainted in the morning. She had been complaining that she had been feeling really tired the past few days. So I took her to hospital and-and I don't know what's happening. Please, can you come here, I'm really scared." She said sobbing uncontrollably.

My hands were shaking. I thought I was going drop my phone any moment. But I mustered up all my courage and said softly,

"Rachel, it's going to be alright. I'm leaving right now. Don't worry, okay? Where are you right now?"

"The City Hospital." She said barely in a whisper as if she was trying to control herself from breaking down again.

"Okay. I'll be there in 5 minutes, okay? I'll call you when I reach there."

"Thank you."

I sat down on my bed and tried to get my hands to stop shaking.

"Tris?" someone said.

"Are you alright?" said Tobias, his eyebrows drawn together in concern.

"It's Susan. Something is happening to her. I have to go to the hospital." I couldn't stop my hands from shaking now. I felt cold. My eyes stung with the tears that were forcing to come out.

"Hey," he said softly as he kneeled down in front of me, "she's going to be alright, okay?", and held my hands in between his palms. They stopped shaking comparatively.

"Where is she right now?"

"She's in the City Hospital." I managed to croak out, "Her friend Rachel just called me."

'Okay. I'll take you there. I don't think you can drive by yourself right now." He said looking at me.

"Come on."

Our ride to the hospital seemed to pass by as a blur of events.

I asked the receptionist. She seemed like a nice person. She had I kind smile, short dark brown hair and tiny spectacles sitting on the bridge of her nose.

"Hey. How can I help you?"

"I'm looking for my friend, um, Susan Black. She was admitted here this morning." I said.

"Yes, just a second." She said looking at her computer, "She has just been shifted into the Oncology department. It's on the second floor, second room."

The world spun in circles. Tobias held my arm to keep me steady. I leaned into him for support.

Oncology. That only meant one thing. Cancer.

No, no, no. This cannot be happening. This must be a dream.

"Thank you." I heard someone say faintly behind me.

I was being dragged towards the elevator.

"Tris," Someone said shaking me, "Tris look at me. Let's not assume things, okay? Just please listen to me."

I looked at him.

"It's going to be alright." He said softly but sternly.

I felt myself nod.

The elevator stopped on the second floor with a loud ding.

We stepped out and I saw Rachel sitting in a corner, her cheeks wet with tears.

"Rachel." I said.

"Oh god, Tris." She said hugging me briefly.

"Can you please tell me what is happening?" I asked her.

She sighed loudly, causing more tears to flow down her cheeks.

"I really have no idea. The doctors just refuse to talk to me." She said, her voice cracking.

'Come on. Sit down. I'll get you some water."

We waited for a good five minutes. I felt like throwing up and I held on to Tobias' arm for support the whole time.

Finally, a doctor stepped out of the room.

"I'm sorry for the wait. My name is Dr. Micheal and I am an Oncology specialist. If you could please step in, I will tell you further details on your friend's condition."

Again the world was spinning around and I heard someone sob.

Someone grabs my arm and says,

"I'll be sitting right here, okay? If you need anything call me. Everything will be fine."

"Thank you." I said with a small smile.

I stepped into the room and it smelled like old bed sheets and medicines.

"Your friend, Susan, has leukemia." He said.

My mind was blank. I couldn't think of anything else. My hands were shaking uncontrollably. And finally I was crying.

Rachel was sitting on the chair with her head in her hands and sobbing.

I didn't know what to do. I didn't know how comfort her. I was scared of saying something to her. Because I knew I would end up crying like her.

I still couldn't hear anything.

The doctor's words were ringing in my head continuously.

Leukemia.

So that's it my lovelies! Hope you liked it! Don't forget to vote for Talvin or Becstin!

Hope you liked it!
