Miracles Can Happen: Chapter #1
This story starts up from when Jamie first tells Landon that she's sick…Also, things are not going to go the way they did in the movie or the book, remember this is what I want to happen.
I had to tell Landon now. He had to know sooner or later, and sooner was better than later. Eventually I just came out with it.
"Landon, I'm sick."
"Well I'll take you home…."
"No, no, Landon! I'm sick. I have leukemia."
"No, you're eighteen, you're…you're perfect."
All I could do was shake my head and say, "I've known for two years, and I've stopped responding to treatments."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
He looked so furious, yet upset and worried all at the same time.
"The doctor said I should keep living a normal life the best that I could. I didn't want anyone to be weird around me."
"Even me?"
"Especially you! I was getting along with everything just fine and then you happened! I do not need a reason to be angry with God."
After that had been said, I turned around and ran the other way. I couldn't face him. He wouldn't want to be with me after this. Apparently I was wrong.
"Jamie, wait!" he yelled after me. I kept running, but I suddenly got very tired and had to slow down. This gave him time to catch up with me.
"Jamie, look at me!" he said. I looked, tears in my eyes. "Jamie, I love you. I will never leave you if that's what you're thinking. I don't care what the circumstance, I will never ever leave." After hearing that I totally broke down in tears. I leaned against Landon for support, and he held me close, though not tightly for fear that he might hurt me. 'He'll never leave' I thought to myself. 'He'll never leave.'

After Jamie told me, I was a wreck. But I knew that I had to be strong. This was not only for myself, just especially for Jamie. I would stay true to my word, and I would never leave her. No, I was going to find a cure for her. I didn't care if it took me night and day for the next two weeks, I would find a cure before it was too late. I was going to be a doctor when I graduated anyway, so this would just be one step closer. I did drive Jamie home after she had stopped crying so hard, but half way there I stopped the care on the side of the road and begun to cry too. We held each other for so long and just wept and wept and wept. When we did finally reach her house, I walked her to the door. But as soon as Hegbert opened the door we started crying again. By then Hegbert must have realized that the secret was out. When I left Jamie and her father alone and went home to tell my mother, she cried too. But when I finally went to bed that night, I had stopped crying. I knew that I had to help save the one and only love in my life, even if it meant dying myself.
