Chapter One
October 7th, 2011. That's a day Beck Oliver and Jade West would never forget. Jade had been getting several bruises in unusual places over the past couple weeks. So Beck took her to the doctor's office, where she was sent to the hospital. One of the doctors there described her symptoms as very serious. So they did some tests on her.
Cancer. That's the only thing that was going through Beck's mind at that moment. "Cancer," said the doctor. "You have cancer."
"W-what kind of cancer?" Beck stammered.
"Leukemia," The doctor looked at them sympathetically. Jade looked at Beck then at the doctor. She tried to speak but could only repeat the word silently.
"No!" Beck yelled. "This can't be happening!"
"Mr. Oliver, calm down and-" The doctor tried.
"There's got to be some mistake!" Beck continued. "Are you sure it's not something else?"
"I… I'm sure," The man said softly. Beck leaned back in the chair and squeezed Jade's hand.
"Well… what now?" Jade bit back tears.
"We're going to have to give you chemotherapy." Jade nodded and looked down. She knew what chemotherapy was. She would lose her hair. She would lose so much more than that, though.
A/N: Super short beginning, I know. But it gets better! :)
