I looked into his eyes and he saw tears escaping from my eyes, he wiped them away.

Me:' I had.. a really bad dream shane..'

Shane:' I know… what was it about?'

Me:' about my dad… and Ashley.. I dreamt that I lost my dad… and I saw how much Ashley suffered when she was ill.. some sort of flashbacks.. I don't know how to explain it shane.. but I relived all the pain I felt.. but twice as hard! Once for Ashley and the other for my dad.. it was awful..' at that point I was crying so shane leaned towards me and gave me a kiss, I kissed back, then he hugged me.

Shane:' I am SO sorry you had to go through that.. but mitchie.. I'm here for you.. and your dad is strong! He'll get through that.. just try to be strong baby.. I love you..' I pulled back and stared into his eyes, I couldn't believe he said he loved me!

Me:' I love you too shane..' he smiled at me. Then I saw my mum coming from a distant, I ran to her and hugged her tight.

Mum:' hey honey! Is there something wrong?'

Me:' no mum.. I just missed you!' she smiled at me then we walked together towards my dad's room, my mum looked through the glass and started talking to my dad, I sat on the chair and gave her her space, shane sat next to me and took my hand and held it tight. I smiled at him. Then I saw some people coming towards us, I stood up and saw that they were nate, Jason, barron, sander and Margaret! My mouth dropped and I looked at shane and he seemed surprised too. They all ran towards me and gave me a group hug!

Me:' oh my God guys! What are you doing here?'

Barron:' we knew that our girl needs us! So here we are!' I just smiled at them. Nate hugged me.

Nate:' so how are you doing?'

Me:' oh well.. I am hanging in there!'

Nate:' we are all here for you mitchie!' I smiled.

Me:' thank you guys.. so much!' nate smiled at me. Then Margaret came and hugged me tight, I hugged her back.

Me:' so how did you guys come here?' a voice from the back ground replied.

Voice:' that would be me!' then I saw it was mr. brown. I smiled at him.

Mr. brown:' how are you mitchie?'

Me:' surprised!' they all laughed.

Me:' I can't believe you all left camp and came here!'

Mr. brown:' you helped us a lot mitchie, and we couldn't be there without our assistant!' I smiled and then mr. brown hugged me. Then my mum realized we had company so she wiped away her tears and walked towards us.

Mum:' WOW! What a large crowd?' we giggled.

Me:' I am just as surprised as you are! They came all the way from camp mum!' she smiled at me. I introduced them all to her, she hugged them all. Then the doctor came.

Doctor:' we'll start now with the chemo, we'll check his status every 30 minutes to make sure he is stable, we'll keep you updated' my mum nodded, then shane put his hand on my shoulder and I held it tight. We all sat in the waiting room, my mum was walking back and forth and I was sitting holding shane's hand, Margaret was sitting next to me, and the others were there too, Caitlyn came a while later, she hugged me and my mum then she sat next to barron, she was surprised when she saw them all too!

Every 30 minutes we would go to the doctor to check on my dad, and the doctor would say that he was weak but hanging in there. Sometimes my mum would start crying remembering Ashley and I would hug her tight. 3 hours later the doctor came into the waiting room.

Doctor:' well, we finished the first dosage of chemo-therapy, his heart didn't fail which is a good sign, but the cancer is advanced, and it's position is very serious, so any mistake could kill him, since the cancer is in the lungs so he won't be able to breathe on his own for a while.. we'll give him the second dosage on chemo in a week' my mum turned to me with tears in her eyes.

Mum:' I miss him..' suddenly I found her staggering so I ran towards her and so did shane and the rest of the guys, she fell on the ground unconscious!

Me:' mum wake up! Mum please don't do this to me!' mr. brown carried her and ran to the ER and the doctor examined her and then they moved her to a room.

Doctor:' your mum's blood pressure is not stable at all, she needs rest, and she shouldn't be upset or stressed at all!' then he left. Shane hugged me tight.

Me:' how am I supposed to take care of her and my dad at the same time? I don't know what to do anymore shane!'

Shane:' hush.. calm down mitchie.. you aren't alone.. I am with you.. and nate, Jason, Caitlyn, Margaret, uncle brown, barron and sander! We will all take care of you and your parents! Don't be scared..' I cried in his arms for a while, then we walked back to the waiting room.

Caitlyn:' what did the doctor say?'

Shane:' her blood pressure wasn't stable, she needs rest, and she HAS to relax!' Caitlyn walked towards me and hugged me.

Mr. brown:' okay we need a schedule to know who is staying here and when..'

Me:' guys, you have your own lives, you don't have to do that..'

Nate:' come on mitchie! We want to!' I forced a smile.

Mr. brown:' okay so we need 2 persons here every day at night! And all day we can all come except those who stayed at night!'

Shane:' I'll stay everyday..'

Me:' shane come on! No you aren't!'

Shane:' yes I will!'

Me:' you will go home tonight, rest, and then if you want, you can come tomorrow!'

Shane:' and leave you here alone? No way!'

Me:' shane.. please.. go home tonight!' he sighed.

Shane:' but only if someone stayed with you!'

Nate:' I will..'

Caitlyn:' me too! I went home yesterday so I am good!'

Me:' thank you guys.. all of you!' they smiled at me. I hugged them all then I kissed shane and they all left. I stayed with Caitlyn and nate in the waiting room, we moved back and forth between my parents' rooms and the waiting room, it was a tiring night!
