"Teddy, looky looky." Skylar said holding up her left hand which had a ring on her ring finger.

I grabbed her hand and stared at it. "What is this?!"

"I'm getting married!" She shouted excitedly. "We're going to be sisters!"

"Sky, you know I love you and all but don't you think you guys are kinda young. I mean you just turned twenty and PJ is turning twenty-one."

"Teddy why are you being such a hypocrite? Why can't you be happy for us?"

"Sky, I just think you and PJ are too young."

"Says the girl who got eloped at eighteen."

"Yes, Spencer and I did get married at eighteen but we ended in a divorce, just like how most young marriages end up. I just don't want it to happen to you guys."

"Teddy, PJ and I are different. It's my life and we are in love and are made for each other. Why can't you just be happy for us? I know I would if you were in my shoes."

"Fine, I'm happy for you. So when and where did this happen?"

"Over the weekend at his apartment. Yeah, he made me a romantic dinner and just popped the question."

"Aw, so when do you think you guys will get married?"

"I don't know… maybe in a year or maybe in the summer."

"You better start planning if you want a summer wedding unless you're going to get eloped."

"Oh, maybe Brendan will be walking and can be the ring bearer."

"Well he is crawling so walking should be the next thing. He's just growing up too fast."

"Yeah he is… So do you wanna be a bridesmaid?"

"I don't know…"

"Please, please, please! You won't have to do anything but buy a dress and show up at the wedding which I know you will."

"Okay, just stop. People are staring." I took my phone out and saw I needed to get to my next class. "Hey, I need to head over to class. I'll talk to you later."

"Okay."

I decided to call Spencer as I walked over to my class since I've been ignoring his texts and calls. I heard the phone ring a couple of times before he answered.

"Hey." Spencer said.

"Hey, sorry I haven't been answering my phone. I've just been real busy and tired."

"I understand. It must be hard for you to do college while taking care of the baby."

"It is and I don't even get to bed until one if I'm lucky and then wake up at six. I'm just so exhausted; I'm literally living on coffee." I entered the class and took my seat. "I don't even know if I can continue to do this."

"Don't give up, I know you can. So how's Brendan?"

"He's crawling now."

"Aw, he is. That's great."

"Yeah, but now I have to keep a better eye on him."

"So I was wondering since my parents are coming to Boston for my spring break if they could bring Brendan with them so I can see him."

"I don't know. I rather have him stay with me."

"Just think about it, I miss him and missing every big mile stone he's hitting."

"Okay, I'll think about it. I have to go, I'm in class."

"Okay, love you."

"Love you too."

"Tell Brendan I love him."

"Yeah, I will. Bye." I hung up and turned my phone to silent.

Half way through class I notice I got a text; it was from mom.

M: I know you are in class but I thought you would like to know your father… he had another seizure and is in the hospital.

My heart stopped when I read that and I wanted to cry. Ever since he was diagnosed with cancer, he would have random seizures and would have to be rushed to the hospital. I know I should stay positive for my dad, but I just don't know if he will be able to beat this… beat cancer.

WELL, I APOLOZIE FOR SUCH A SHORT CHAPTER… ANYWAYS, THANKS FOR READING, AND REMEMBER TO REVIEW, FAVORITE, FOLLOW IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY. BYE!
