Okay, so this is the promised second chapter and I plan to continue this story and it will get better when I get my story straightened out. This is still an experimental story so I will post upon request. If you have any suggestions as to what will happen next I would be happy to hear them and if they are good i'll add them to the story.
"Leo Hendrie?" said Dominic. Leo looked at him with confused eyes tinged with a little bit of jealousy. Leo looks at April who's head was leaned on his chest; then he looks at Dominic. "Listen, April called me and I just wanted to make sure she was okay and I was about to take her back to her room," says Leo.
"Okay, but I don't know why she called you," says Dominic. April looks at Dominic, "not now, please Dominic," says April. "look," says Leo, "I really should take her back to her room, they must be wondering where she is. So if you'll excuse me." Leo walks past Dominic and leaves him standing there.
As Leo walks into her hospital room it looked like nobody was there, or they were looking for her elsewhere. "April, promise me that you'll take care of yourself, please," says Leo. April looks up at him with wide eyes, "I just don't want to die here."
"You won't," says Leo. "You are one of the strongest people I know, and your going to live through this, you'll see." April's eyes well up with tears, "I just don't want this, I don't want to be in the hospital, I don't want to have chemotherapy, and I most definitely don't want to have cancer!" she begins crying openly. Leo hugs her tight. "April, nobody asks for this, but you have to remember that you will live through this. It might not be easy at times but you will get past it and when you do i'll be there,"
April eyes look up at him with confusion, "but I thought they said you were terminal?" says April. "not anymore, they said that some miracle or something must have happened because my tumor shrank and now they just need me to stay in the hospital for some treatment in a few days and my chances or surviving have gone up significantly," says Leo. "Leo that's amazing!" exclaims April, wiping her tears.
"You haven't even heard the best part yet, they need to have me here for a few weeks and my rooms across the hall from yours, so we'll be together for more time," April smiled a real smile, something she hadn't done in what seemed like an eternity. "That's fantastic, I can't wait," says April.
April suddenly puts her hand on her forehead, "oh no," she says. "What, what's wrong?" says Leo. "Dominic," says April. "Oh, that extremely insensitive guy with the bad haircut? I think he's still in the hallway," says Leo. "Very funny Leo, but last time I checked, i'm pretty sure he's still my boyfriend so you might have to let him in to see me," says April. "Pretty sure he's still your boyfriend?"
"I don't know what's going on with us but it's better that you stay out of it," says April. "And miss all the fun, doesn't sound like me," says Leo. He began to say something else but was interrupted by a knock on the door. "I'll get it," says Leo. He opens the door to find Dominic standing outside, "Oh, it's you again," says Leo. "Um, yes and i'd like to have a word alone with April if you don't mind," says Dominic. "No, I don't mind, um bye April. See you in a few days"
April hugs Dominic tight and says, "I didn't know you were coming back, why didn't you call me?" says April. "I didn't have my phone and I wanted to surprise you, but I guess this isn't a very cheery surprise considering you're in the hospital with cancer, why didn't you tell me? Why are you confiding in Leo Hendrie?" April looks up a him, "I didnt' know how to tell you and since you said you didn't like drama, I was scared that," "That I would leave you?" finishes Dominic.
"Yes," says April. "Well I would never do that, all I want is for you to be okay and healthy again." says Dominic. "Okay," says April. Dominic wondered why April was confiding in Leo since she never answered his question but didn't want to assume the worst so he left it for later, he didn't want to put too much pressure on April when she's obviously in such a fragile state.
