Disclaimer: Nope.... Santa didn't bring it to me. NO FAIR!!! Uh....... maybe my birthday:) That way no more crazy Izzie, Meredith and Derek actually having a relationship, George have a good plot so T.R won't leave, and Mark can teach Lexie all he wants. Of course if I did own it I wouldn't have a disclaimer ;)
Lyss gets to see Chase again. Of course now she is much weaker because of the induction but the thing is.... Chase understands. He went through it and knows what is feels like. Mere talks with his mother as they see each other again and realizes that there is something hidden. The way Lyss really feels about Chase. He is like no other boy she met, what happens when he says the right thing? What if mere sees it? THANK YOU 7LuckyStars for the idea!!!!!!!!!!!!! without her, I don't know where this story would have gone :) Also for the Hayley part. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Four days later............. Six days, one more day to go, and Lyss didn't think she could stand it. It was only a low dose, and only her first. It hurt, it hurt so badly. Even inch of her body throbbed. All she did was sit in bed all day and close her eyes only opening for visitors. The only one she actually talked to was Chase. He visited her every one of the past four days. he held her hand through all the pain. Her father had found out about the kiss, because there were many more. Lyss laughed weakly when she remembered what he had done. It was only a day after the first. "You don't think I am too disgusting with all the chemo do you?" she asked Chase as he sat next to her bed. "That depends, do you think I am too disgusting?" he asked smiling. "That would be a no," Lyss giggled. He leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips. She heard coughing outside. Lyss turned to look out the window where Derek was choking on his coffee he recently spit out. "I think it's time for me to go," he said and got a nurse to wheel him back to his room before Derek recovered from the burning coffee. He stepped into the room. He had a large stain down the front of his scrubs and there was still some coffee dripping down his chin. Lyss had to bite her lip, and hard to stop herself from laughing. "Alyssa Shepherd, did I just see you kissing that boy," he said sternly. "I am surprised Mommy didn't tell you," she said. "What?" he said surprised. "It was one time," Lyss told him trying to calm him down. "One time well....." "He makes me happy Daddy, he understands me. Do you understand?" "I don't like it, but yeah I do. Be careful." he kissed her on the forehead. "Dad, I am in a hospital, how much more can I get away with." "I won't answer that." Mere walks in. "What happened to you?" she asked Derek seeing the large stain. She started to fuss with his scrub top and kiss him on the lips. Lyss acted like she was gagging. "Long story," he said. She shook her head knowing it involved Lyss in some way. "It ends with him seeing me kiss Chase," Lyss laughed and Mere stared at her as if saying... again. That was the last time Lyss had fully been conscious. After that, she had another allergic reaction to the chemo and started vomiting constantly and had to be sedated most of the time. Sometimes she could go with just the morphine and that's when she would be able to talk to Chase. It still hurt to talk though. They said it would wipe you out but no wonder you need a month to recover from it. Lyss opened her eyes to see Derek by her side. He smiled and talked to her, but Lyss didn't respond, it hurt to much. He just nodded and understood. He stroked her face, held her hand, and other things until she started retching. It was another allergic reaction and she could tell. She was able to know these things, what was vomit from the effects of the chemo, the morphine, or the allergic reaction she would get maybe once or twice a day. Lyss started vomiting her whole body shaking. Derek held the bin in front of her, and held her. She wouldn't stop. It took too much effort to try to stop. Lyss was still shaking when she was finished. Her head swirled as nurses came into her room and started pushing the sedative. "Rest baby, rest, it's almost over," she heard Derek say as he held her hand before the sedative took effect. When she woke up he next time it was Chase. "Hey," she managed to choke out. "Hey Lyss, feeling any better," he said. "A little, that morphine is good stuff until I throw up." He laughed slightly. "Did you get allergic reaction like this?" "I don't remember." "Yeah I probably won't it's like I am in a fog." "It will get better, it's almost over." "It is?" "Yeah, tomorrow is your last full day, they take you off of it the next day." "Good." She sighed with relief. "Yeah I miss actually talking to without one or to, or sometimes five word answers," he joked. She pushed him. "Chase," she said. "You do know I still can't face your dad." "He scares you doesn't he." "Yes," he admitted. "Aw." "Oh be quiet." Lyss tried to smile but it was too hard. She had just remembered that she had radiation throughout this entire time which was why she was feeling even worse then Chase had. "It think it's sweet. And my Dad is just protecting me. He is not that scary. He is really very soft, especially with ferry boats." "Ferry boats?" "He has a thing for ferry boats." "Gotcha." "And if my mom, any of my sisters, me, and sometimes even Noah or Jake pouts, he is incapable of saying no. It's pretty funny actually." "Nice." That was the last thing she remembered before the morphine and sedative combined kicked in again. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX This was the first time they were allowed to see her sister for about three days. Meredith had warned them all but Sophia didn't really believe it. Lyss was stronger then what Mere was saying. She was not expecting the sickly person who was lying in the bed. Sophia let out a gasp as they walked over to her bedside. Lyss stirred slightly and let out a groan. Her eyes slowly flickered open. Part of her wanted to run away, but she had to stay strong, she was her older sister. "hey Lyss," Mere said. Lyss only blinked. Sophia got choked up seeing her like this. She heard Hayley's breath hitch. She turned around to see her running out. "Hayley," Mere called but didn't go after her. Sophia stepped forward and grabbed her hand. she had to do something to make her feel better. That's when Lyss started retching. Noah screamed as Paige grabbed him and held him. Sophia just stared at her scared as Mere pulled out a bin and held it in front of her. She was frozen and took a step back. How had it gotten this bad? Her parents explained it but she thought they were just exaggerating. They weren't. Her eyes widened as she kept vomiting, and if seemed like it wouldn't stop. Her little sisters entire body was shaking and she was whimpering the whole time. Afterwards, when Lyss stopped Mere helped her lay back down. Sophia smiled at her sweetly. Lyss attempted to, but it was too hard. The next thing Sophia knows is that she is asleep. When they left the room that's when the tears came out of everyone mostly Sophia. "Mom," she said. Meredith came over and hugged her tightly. "I didn't think it would be that bad." "I know, the only one who she even makes an attempt to talk to is Chase," she said. "Chase?" Paige asked. "I'll explain later," Mere told them. "Where's Hayley?" Kelsey said looking around. Mere looked around too. "Where is she?" Mere repeated. "You know Hayl, she just needs to take it all in. She is probably somewhere or took the bus home," Paige said. Sophia wiped her eyes. But then they lit up. "I have an idea," she said. "What?" Mere said. "To cheer up Lyss," Sophia said. "When does the treatment stop?" "Tomorrow," Mere told her. "Then on Thursday, that's two days after." "You have yet to tell us the plan Soph," Jake informed her. She started talking and they all agreed. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Hayley was running. Form her sister, from her parents, from her own pain. She is scared. She doesn't want to lose her. She loves her. But it doesn't even seem like Lyss in that hospital bed. She can't take it anymore. The loneliness she feels because everyone's thought are about Lyss. The lack of time she spends with her parents. The fact that she could lose Lyss. She could actually stop living, dead. It was too hard. She was running through the halls of the hospital. Hayley knew them way too well. She had spent half her childhood here. she didn't even notice running past Izzie. "Hayley, what's wrong!" she called after her but she kept running. She did the same with Christina, Owen, Alex, George, and Lexie. She didn't care, she had to get out of here. By now the tears were running down her face. That's when she collided with a familiar face. He let out a groan. "Watch it!" he said until he realized who it was. "Sorry Uncle Mark," she said. "Hayley, what's wrong?" "Nothing." She stood up but Mark grabbed her arm. "Your crying, something's wrong." "It's nothing, I just have to get out of here." She got away from his grip and ran out in the parking lot. She didn't want to wait for a bus, so she started running. Throughout the time she was running she couldn't stop thinking about Lyss in the bed. So frail, so ghost-like, so not her sister. Not the sister she played with, or teased, or had a lot of fun with. She remembered one time at home, they were playing hide and seek in the dark in the basement. "Come on Lyss, I give up," a 5 year old Hayley screamed down in the basement. "Lyss!" She heard giggling. "Lyss I hear you, come out, please!" She kept wondering around. All of a sudden a figure loomed in front of her. She let out a loud scream as something tackled her. When she came face to face with a giggling Lyss she let out another scream. "Lyss, not fair," she whined. "I don't have to be fair." "Yeah you do." "No I don't." "Yeah you do." "No I don't." Lyss crossed her arms still in the dark and stuck out her tongue. The girls collapsed in a fit of laughter. "I love you Hayley." "Me too Lyss." she said hugging her sister tightly. "Alyssa, Hayley, what is going on down there?" Mere screamed from the top of the steps and turned on the light. "I heard screaming. Are you two fighting?" They started giggling loudly again and laid down on the floor. She didn't even realize that she started crying again, or that she was back home. She needed something to drown out her pain. Hayley knew exactly what to do. She knew where her mother hid the tequila. She went in the basement and grabbed two bottles. Hayley put them in her bag and ran to the park not forgetting to write a note saying she was at a friends, cell phone died, and would be back after dark. All of which wouldn't be true. She ran towards the lake, hid in the reeds and opened the first bottle. She lifted it to her lips and took a drink. Her face screwed up as it burned down her throat but she continued anyway. "I can't take it anymore," she muttered still drinking and rocking herself back and forth. "I can't take it anymore," her voice dropped to a whisper. "I can't take it anymore." XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Lyss is off induction but she is still depressed and only talks to Chase. What happens when Chase has big news that isn't so good? What about the 'surprise' that Sophia is coming up with, what is it? What happens when it goes terribly wrong? And what about Hayley? Will anyone find out about the drinking? Will they care? Do any of Lyss's other sibling feel the same? Especially Hayley's twin Paige....... Let's go for 9!!!!!!! PLEASE :'( PLEASE R&R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
