This Magic Moment
Ch. 4
The weather was perfect outside, not a cloud in sight. There was a gentle breeze that blew through the trees, crisp and refreshing. The day representing the opposite of everything that Chris Keller was feeling. The blonde musician walked along the sidewalk trying to get some perspective on life, quickly becoming unsuccessful. What was the point anymore? The one thing he lived for had a 50% chance of surviving and there was absolutely nothing that he could do about it. His feet shuffled along the concrete below, his head lowered and eyes glued to the ground.
"Chris?" a voice called out from across the street.
Chris lifted his head to look and see who was calling his name. "Oh hey, Brooke," the boy replied as she made her way across the busy road.
"Whoa, bad day I'm guessing." The cheery brunette grabbed his hand and led him to the bench outside the cafe. "Talk to me, hun. What's going on?"
"What's going on? My girlfriend has cancer. That's what's going on." Chris's head fell, his eyes watching as his fists clenched. "I'm supposed to be there for her and make everything better, but I can't. I can't fix this and it kills me."
Brooke placed her hand delicately on his back and ran her fingers up and down. "I'm sorry, Chris. I know how much you like her and want everything to be okay."
Blue eyes shot up and connected with bright green ones. "I don't just like her, Brooke. I love her. I'm in love with her. She's my everything. The reason I get up in the morning." His blonde hair swiped across his forehead as he shook his head.
"Wow, I didn't know that you lo-loved her. It hasn't been that long, Chris. Are you sure? I mean, maybe you just think you love her because of the situation she is facing. And what happens when all is said and done? You're going to be left heartbroken, Chris, and I don't want that for you."
Chris shook her arm off of his back. "What the fuck are you trying to say, Brooke? You think that I am going to lose her? That she won't come out of this? Thanks for your support." He stood to his feet, looking down on her. "I thought you were her friend. That you'd be there to help and support her through this but I guess I was wrong. You just stay away from us, Brooke. I mean it." The blue-eyed boy walked off down the sidewalk never once turning back.
