Hey! I'm back! I know it's been a long time, but thanks for not bashing me about it. I was helping my friend out, as you know if you read the first chapter stuff. I would've updated sooner, but another storm hit, there wasn't any tornados, but there was a lot of wind damage. And it went right in the same path as the tornadoes did before. It hit the place where my friend and his family are staying, it's like it's following their family. There place wasn't destroyed or anything though, they're fine, but my friend is staying with me for awhile while they do some stuff to their house. So thanks for being patient and not mean. It's a tough time and I don't need anybody saying things about me or my friend. It's bad enough as it is. But thanks!

The rest of Chapter 1- 'Just a Dream'
"I'm sorry, you may see her now."
"They all went to Teagon's room and gathered around her bed.
"The leukemia is in the early stages, has she been sick lately?"
"Yes, off and on all summer vacation. Is there anything that can help her?" Catherine said wiping tears away.
"Yes, there are treatments to help. We'll have to do more tests, but the treatments can start soon. I'm going to check on my other patients, I'll be back later."
"Thank you," Mr. Moseby said.
Tyson grabbed Zack's hand and pulled him to the side. "Zack, you've known me my whole life, right?"
"Yeah."
"And you wouldn't lie to me, right?"
"Yeah."
"Well answer my question and don't lie. Is my sister going to die?"
Zack looked into Tyson's dark, chocolate brown eyes that were pleading for help. He got down to Tyson's level, "It's possible, but she's still here, and she'll be here for a long time."
"Can I help her stay here longer?"
"You can be with her and make her want to stay longer."
"How?"
"Be her brother, do what you always do, have fun, keep her smiling."
"I can do that."
"I know you can. Now let's see your sister." Zack stood putting an arm around Tyson and went to Teagon's bedside.
Zack looked at Teagon, she was an 11 year old girl who had a great life, friends, a great family and all the things an 11 year old girl could want, and now she was lying in bed with a fatal illness.
"Tyson, please come out," Mr. Moseby said knocking on Tyson's bedroom door.
"No, just leave me alone," Tyson said into his pillow.
It was the day of Teagon's funeral, four years after they found out she had cancer.
"Ty, please," Mr. Moseby pleaded.
"Go away," Tyson said throwing something hard at the closed door. Tyson was full of mixed emotions, anger, sadness, happiness and confusion. He was fourteen years old; losing his older sister by one year was hard on him. They did almost everything together when they were younger, got in trouble together, watched cartoons together, played together, everything. Tyson speant every day after sport practices with Teagon, at home or in the hospital. They cried together when Teagon lost her hair or when she just wanted to give up. Teagon showed Tyson how to live life at the fullest, keep going, no matter how bad things were. Tyson was with Teagon when she passed, holding her hand the whole way, telling her everything would be okay. Teagon became Tyson's world, his everything, he blew off his friends and girlfriend to be with Teagon. Everything he did was for Teagon and now she was gone. He didn't have it all anymore, he didn't have his everything and nobody understood. Tyson thought nobody understood, but one person did, one person who was close to him, but he didn't realize it, Zack.
"You guys go on," Zack said to Mr. Moseby. "I'll talk to him."
"Thank you, Zack," Mr. Moseby hesitated before leaving, but he went downstairs.
"Tyson, can I come in?" Zack asked knocking on Tyson's door.
Zack stood in silence for a few seconds, then the sound of Tyson's door unlocking broke the silence. Zack looked at Tyson standing in the door way, he was dressed in black pants, a button up shirt and a loose tie. Zack could tell he had been crying, cheeks still tear stained, eyes red.
"Do you want to talk?" Zack asked quietly.
Tyson stared at Zack, then went to his bed and layed back down on his stomach, face down in the pillow. Zack came in and shut the door. He looked around Tyson's room, it was messy, papers and pictures all over his desk, clothes on the floor.
"I see you're very organized," Zack said casually. He gabbed a chair and put it by Tyson's bed and say down. "So, what's on your mind?"
Tyson turned his head so Zack could se his face, but looking somewhere else. "We weren't done," Tyson said quietly.
"Done with what?"
"Our scrapbook. We started it when she got sick, everything we did we have pictures of, every little thing. We weren't done…." Tyson trailed off starting to cry more. "We weren't done."
Zack didn't like seeing Tyson like this, he was too young to be hurting like this.
"I'm nothing without Teagon, nothing. I don't know what to do without her, I'm lost. I just….can't do it."
"Ty," Zack said, "look me in the eye and tell me why you can't do it. Teagon would want you to do it, for her. You were her everything. Do you think she would want you to just give up?"
Tyson didn't look at Zack, he let tears go.
Zack got off the chair and bent down, eye level to Tyson. "Look at me, Tyson. Look."
Tyson looked at Zack.
"You're not nothing, Tyson. Nothing is sitting around not carring, not enjoying life, you're not nothing, you care. You did everything possible with Teagon, anything that would help her be happy, forget the pain, forget the cancer, forget all about her worries. What did you do for her the first time she lost her hair?"
Tyson sniffled," Cut all my hair off."
"Right. Now tell me that's nothing. You spent everyday, every moment with her just to make her happy. You can't tell me Teagon wouldn't wan that for you."
Tyson got up off the bed and stood up. "But she's not here! I can't do anything! I feel empty! She shouldn't be gone! She's supposed to be here! We were going to go to high school together, we were going to be together forever!" Tyson broke down as Zack held him in a hug. "Teagon was everything," Tyson said into Zack's chest.
"I know, Tyson, I know. But she's always gong to be with you forever. She's watching over you, Tyne, your mom, you're dad, everyone she loves. All you have to do is think of her and she'll be with you, in fact, you don't even have to think of her because she'll always be with you. She'll always be in your heart. Now, are you ready to go?"
Tyson pulled away. "But if I go, it's like admitting she's gone, forever. I don't want her to be gone forever."
"Not really, you're just admitting she's better now, all her pain's gone."
Tyson looked at Zack and smiled the smallest smile, "You think so?"
"No," Zack said, then pause. He smiled and put an arm around Tyson, "I know so."
Tyson smiled wiping the tears away, "Okay, I'll go for Teagon and Tyne."
"Good. Tyne really needs you right now, and you probably could use her too."
"She does remind me of Teagon."
"There you go, see, you'll always have them both."
"Yeah, let's go."
There you go! Hope you liked it! I'll update as soon as I can, but don't be expecting an update tomorrow, lol. R&R and thanks for understanding!
