Chapter 10

When I woke up the next morning Greg was just starring at me. "Do you have a starring problem?" I asked him.
"Yes when I'm starring at you I do."
"Really? I feel so special!" I said getting closer to him.
"I know you do." He said putting his arm around me.
"What's wrong?" I asked looking up at him from under his arm.
"Nothing." He said smiling at me.
"Greg. What's wrong?"
He took my hand and sat me up. "I got a call from your mom earlier." Then he stopped.
"Yeah what'd she say?"
"Well hunny, she told me to tell you..." he stopped and looked me in the eye. "You're uncle has cancer."
"OMG!" I said.
"Come here, come here." He said pulling me into a hug. "It's ok. You'll be ok."
"Which one?" I asked crying.
"Bob." He said holding me.
"OMG." I cried again.
"Kendra. Talk to me." He said after a few minutes of me crying.
"What is there to say?" I asked crying into his shoulder.
"I don't know. What are you thinking?" he asked.
"That I want you to stop asking me questions and just hold me." I said looking up at him.
"Ok." he said holding me and rocking me back and forth. "If you want to talk just say so." He added.
"Ok." I said quietly sobbing into his shoulder still. Just then there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Greg hollered from the bedroom. All he heard was mumbling.
"I'm coming hold on." He said putting my head on the pillow. "I'll be right back."
"Greg are you there?"
"Yes I'm coming who is it?"
"It's Lauren!"
"WHAT?" he asked.
"It's Lauren silly. Open up." She said as he opened the door.
"I heard who you said it was."
"Hey." She said when he opened the door. "I heard about Kendra. Where is she? I brought her some presents." She said walking in.
"What? How'd you hear about her?"
"You're manager. Now where is she?"
"In our bedroom."
"Go get her while I let her other present in here." She said.
"Um... ok but if she doesn't want to come out I'm not going to make her." He said walking into the room. "Kendra." He said sitting down next to me. "Lauren's here! She brought you some presents. She wants you to come out into the livingroom for a minute. Then we'll come back in here."
"Ok." I said giving him my hand.
"Are you coming?"
"Yes!" Greg said.
As soon as I walked out of the room and saw a blond head sitting on the couch I screamed, "AARON CARTER!" and ran back into the bedroom before he could turn around.
"Dude where'd she go?" he asked.
"Back in there!" Greg said looking shocked.
"Oh, mind if I go in there?"
"No, go ahead!" Greg said as Aaron walked in.
"Hey, Kendra... right?" he asked me.
"Y-Yeah." I said looking at him.
"Yeah that's what Lauren told me. She said you were having family problems, and you would kill to see me. So I said a friend of yours is a friend of mine and the next thing I knew here I was!" He said laughing.
"Really? She didn't even ask you if you wanted to come up here?"
"Nope she just dragged me up here. Well first I had to stop at Greg's house so we could get all the information of where you guys were and all. But that's about it!" He said laughing again.
"Wow. Lauren did this for me?" I asked him.
"Yeah." Aaron answered.
"I'll be right back." I said running out the bedroom door.
"Lauren, I love you!" I said giving her a huge hug.
"Really?" She asked, looking at me funny.
"You know what I mean."
"Yea I know but we can't stay long because we have to go back down to Florida."
"Yeah Lauren so wanted you to get to see me she took us off track of where we were going!" Aaron said laughing.
"Wow." I said sitting on the couch.
About 2 hours later
"Oh Kendra before we leave I forgot I have another present for you." Lauren said pulling an envelope out of her purse.
"Oh you don't have to." I said. "Getting to meet Aaron was enough."
"No, no, here." She said handing me the envelope. "You get to meet Andy Roddick!"
"Really?" I asked with bulging eyes.
"Yeah, you and 3 friends. The day after the race!" She said. "And I think Mandy is going to be there too."
"Omg no way. I love her!" I said.
"I know Greg told me." She said. "Well I'd love to stay and talk more, but we have to go back down south. And it's going to be a long trip. So we'll talk later on the phone." She said walking to the door with Aaron.
"Ok well it was nice talking to you and getting to know you Aaron. And Lauren we'll talk soon." I said as they walked out the door.
"Ok see ya soon." Lauren said.
"Yeah bye." Aaron said kissing my cheek.
"Bye." Greg and I said.

A/N: Sry this chapter is so short. I kinda got writers block. If you have any ideas throw them at me and I'll think about them. Thanx. Kengy
