--2 weeks later at the hospital--
(Demi's POV)
I woke up at around 7am, the hospital was busling already with old people in wheel chairs, pregnant women screaming to their husbands and children with casts. Every once in a while I'd see someone my age, usually coming in with the flu, or having gotten into a car accident. Rarely ever with anything like me. I turned my head to my left and there was Joseph, sound asleep in a chair. He was always here when he wasn't at school. It was a saturday so he didn't have to be anywhere. I hated that they wouldn't bring in a cot for him and that he wouldn't
just sleep at home. But he insisted. I got up weakily and went into the bathroom. The meds they had me on really wore me out. I stared at the stranger looking back at me in the mirror. My hair was in a huge messy bun and I had not once gram of makeup on my skin. My lips were pale and almost blending into my white skin. I haven't been in the sun so long, I looked like a Cullen [A/N: haha]. My brown eyes were so light, almost hazel. It was like my lack of joy drained the color right out of them. I haven't laughed in 2 weeks. I've had tiny smiles and although Joseph always makes me laugh, nothing came out. It's not like I'm not happy with him, I am and I love him more than anything but I can't help to think that every day we spend together is one less. I pinched my cheeks, trying to make them turn rosy...nothing. I sighed and my shoulders dropped. I quietly walked over to Joseph, dragging around my pole on the wheels with my IV of course. I leaned down and kissed his forehead before walking outside my room. I know he hates it when I go anywhere but I haven't left my bed in a week. I was beginning to go crazy. I walked over to a vending machine and put in a doller but nothing happened.
Voice: You have to really kick it.
I turned around to see a boy about my age in a similar hospital gown. He kicked the vending machine hard and my skittles came out.
Demi: Thanks, i'm Demi...
Boy: Zac. What're you in for Demi?
Demi: Heart transplant, you?
Zac: Cancer.
Demi: That sucks. [A/N: they can talk casually like this because they can relate; she isn't being rude]
Zac: *smiles*I've learnt how to deal. Any doners yet? *they begin walking*
Demi: Nah, still waiting.
Zac: How long has it been?
Demi: Well i've known since I was 12 but I got admitted two weeks ago.
Zac: Yeah, i've been here for about 2 months.
Demi: I can tell.
Zac: Do I look that bad?
Demi: *slightly smiles* No, no. I was talking about the vending machine.
Zac: Oh, right.
Demi: *puts her hand through his hair* You're not bald, are you not doing chemo yet?
Zac: I start tomorrow, so today's like my last day with a lot of energy.
Demi: Oh. I'm completely drained.
Zac: I can tell.
Demi: *fake laughs* Ha-ha.
Zac: I meant the sour skittles, they're full of sugar. *winks*
Demi: Touche. Well...I should be getting back to my room.
Zac: Right. Would you like to go for lunch this afternoon...I know this great place and it's super close you just take a left at the elevators and a right at the storage room. It's a huge cafeteria that smells like vomit, you can't miss it.
Demi: *laughs* I don't know...I'll have to ask Joseph.
Zac: Your...?
Demi: Boyfriend.
Zac: Oh he must have you on a tight leesh.
Demi: No, he's just protective, but okay. 1 o'clock, don't keep me waiting.
Zac: Persistent? I like that.
Demi: *laughs*See ya then. *walks away*
Zac: *looking at her back, checking her out*See ya Demi.
I walked back into my room realizing that I finally laughed. Boy did it feel good. Joseph wasn't there though.
Demi: Joe?
Joe: *walks out of the bathroom with a huge smile on his face*There you are! I looked everywhere for you!
Demi: Really?
Joe: Yeah..well the bathroom and under the bed.
Demi: *laughs*Cause I hide under there so often.
Joe: *smiles more*
Demi: What are you so giddy about?
Joe: Well for one, you laughed...I missed that. And two...
Demi: *laughs more*Spit it out, Joseph!
Joe: Dr. Stevens just came in, you got a heart. Demi, you got a heart!
Demi: *drops her skittles each one falling and bouncing on the floor, her hand flys up to her mouth*Oh my God.
Joe: *pulls her into a bear hug and spins her around*
Demi: Ouch!
Joe: What? Aren't you happy?
Demi: Of course I am but sweetie your tangling my IV and it really hurts!
Joe: Oh, shit. Sorry! *puts her down on the bed and adjusts her IV*
Demi: *smiling big*I love you more than the world, you know that right?
Joe: Now I do. *kisses her hard but passionatly on the lips*
Demi: *crying*
Joe: What's wrong?
Demi: It's finally ending...I just...I can't believe it...I'm so happy Joseph, you have made me the happiest girl on earth.
Joe: *lays beside her and leans in to kiss her again* By the way babe, I love you too.
