Adam's POV
I kicked the bed and threw Fiona's perfume bottle onto the ground. I stepped on it, and started yelling. She cheated on me! For 10 years! Since the freaking day we married each other! It's all a lie! And now, she's pregnant, again! I yelled at curse word as I heard the door open. Fiona stumbled in, and I glared at her. The woman I loved, is pregnant. Of course she cheated, because I couldn't of impregnated her!
"Hey Hun. I could I cinnamon bun!" Fiona greeted, and kissed my cheek. It was a chaste kiss, and I hated it. "Fiona, do you still want a kid?" I asked, trying to get her to admit her secret. "Yes…do you?" Fiona asked. "Yeppers. But, let's use a pregnancy test to see if your pregnant, if you're not, let's try it." I suggested. "Ok, but you can't get me pregnant. I will never get pregnant in my life because your my soul mate." Fiona said back. "LIAR! YOU CHEATED! YOUR FREAKING BOYFRIEND OR HUSBAND WHATEVER CALLED AND SAID THAT YOU NEED TO BABYSIT YOUR DAUGHTER, LILLI!" I bursted, anger sizzling through me. "I wouldn't. I didn't." Fiona whispered. "You fucking liar! You freaking cheater. You lied. You lied to me since the day we married each other! I loved you!" I cried.
"Adam honey, I'm sorry." Fiona said, kissing me. "Stop with the honey! I'm not your honey, Lilli's dad's your honey!" I yelled. "Adam. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." Fiona said. "YOU DIDN'T MEAN TO. HOW COULD YOU SLEEP WITH ANOTHER GUY, NAKED, AND HAVE A KID, THEN SLEEP WITH THE SAME GUY AGAIN, NAKED, AND NOW YOU'RE PREGNANT, BUT YOU DIDN'T MEAN TO!" I screamed. Fiona flinched, I ran into our room, grabbed her clothes, packed it into a suit case, and threw it out the door. "GET OUT OF MY HOUSE! I HATE YOU! I FUCKING HATE YOU! YOU DON'T DESERVE ME, AND I DEFINETLY DON'T DESERVE YOU!" I replied, and Fiona scurried out the door.
About a minute after she left, I leaned onto the wall, and started crying. There went 10 awesome years of my life.
Julia's POV
"I'm sexy and I know it." I sang, doing homework at Aunt Darcy's. At the hospital, mom called Aunt Darcy and she picked Zac and I up. Mom was crying, and Dad looked bummed out. Aunt Darcy walked into the kitchen with Uncle Spinner. "Come on Darce. They'll make it through." Spinner said, and Darcy shook her head. "No. Clare needs help. Now that Eli has…" Darcy argued, and walked into the living room, and Spinner followed.
"What happened to Dad?" Zac asked, his big blue eyes looking into my green ones. "IDK. IDK." I replied, realizing I just said that out loud. "IDK? WTHRUTA?" Zac said, leaving me confused. "What the ruta is that?" I questioned. "Duh! What the heck r u talking about!" Zac answered, walking away.
The Next Morning, Clare's POV, At Home
I stared at the paper, not believing this. I looked over at my husband, who gave me a weak smile. I remember when Eli and I would laugh about those sad songs, feeling a little emotional. I'd take back that day, and be more emotional.
"Clare. It's going to be ok." Eli assured me, but I can't believe it. I looked up at the ceiling, and sighed. What are we going to do? What about money? We can't afford it. Then all the time it takes up. I can't. Eli can't. Julia can't. Zac can't. This is terrible.
Julia's POV
I walked into school, and noticed Allison. She was kissing someone, and when the kiss was done, I realized who was that. I ran up to them and yelled, "Allison?" Allison looked over at my and blushed. Then I looked over at the boy and said, "Hunter." Hunter waved high, and Allison continued to blush furiously. "Hi Jules…" Hunter replied weakly, obviously embarrassed. "Hi Jules? When did this happen?" I asked, motioning Allison and Hunter. Allison walked away, leaving Hunter and me alone.
"There isn't a this! Allison kissed me!" Hunter defended, but I just turned. "Really?" I asked. "Yes! Julia, I swear!" Hunter replied, and looked down at me. "I believe you. Brown eyes." I whispered. "Great green eyes." Hunter repeated, and we giggled and walked to class.
Mr. Martin came into the room and answered the phone. "Hello?" he said, and he looked over at me with a sad face. "Julia." He said, and I walked over to him. "Yes Jake?" I answered, since Mr. Martin allows A students to call him Jake. "Julia. Ms. Fontes wants to speak with you. She has some devastating
news." He said, and I walked to the Guidance counselor's office.
I walked in, and Ms. Fontes smiled. Ms. Fontes was the kind of lady you don't want to be on her bad side. The bad thing is, she has levels of giving clues about the news. Grades: Sticker. Bullying: Pat On The Back. Family Problems/Health: Handful of candy. My heart sunk when Ms. Fontes opened her candy jar and dumped it in front of me.
"Julia, I'm so sorry." Ms. Fontes started, and I prayed this wasn't about Dad. "About what?" I croaked, confused. "Your Dad has…" Ms. Fontes told me, and I bursted into tears. (A/N: Ms. Fontes told Julia, I just want it to be a surprise…heehee)
Clare's POV
I stared at Eli, amazed. I'm just broken. Scared. Eli's going through this, and I've never thought of this happening to anyone in our family. But hey, that's just Eli Goldsworthy's luck. If he's lucky enough, he gets a lollipop for each penny we're going to have to spend. Eli's been stressing about the money, but I keep trying to calm him down. I don't want to look at him as my broken husband, because he isn't broken. He's fragile…at the moment.
On Saturday, I made pancakes and gave a small smile to Eli as he continuously coughed. Fiona, Alli, Dave and Adam were coming over around noon, and we're telling them the news. Julia stumbled down the stairs, depressed by the news she found out yesterday.
Zac did the same, devasted. We ate breakfast as usual, except for the worried glances towards Eli. Julia, Zac and I took turns looking at him, and it was silent. "So, Julia, you like middle school?" Eli asked, trying to break the silence. "Yeah. I started middle school last year." Julia replied. "Dad. Mom. I have a question." Zac popped in. "Yes honey." I replied. "When's Dad going to die?" Zac asked, causing a giggle from Julia, and Eli's eyes widened as if it's about to fall off.
"Zac, your Dad's not going to die." I replied. "Yes! My guidance counselor said that a lot of people who get diagnosed die!" Zac argued. "MOST." Julia muttered, and stabbed her egg. Eli's beautiful emerald green eyes practically turned into Baby Barf Green, in my vision. His face was dull, and he went pale. The doctor said to get used to it. But I don't care about his looks. I care about him.
Noon, Eli's POV
I hate this. I feel broken. I'm broken. Clare must be thinking about plans after I die. Run away with Julia and Zac to Jake and end up having- "STOP!" I yelled at myself, changing. The door rang, and Julia answered it. Alli and Dave walked in, followed by Fiona and a lifeless Adam. He had bags under his eyes, he was pale, and just plain…plain. "Hey Eli." Adam greeted, and we man hugged. We had lunch, then Julia ran upstairs.
I ran after her, not really sure what just happened. I walked into her dark red room, where she was laying on her black bed, crying. "Jules. What the freak just happened?" I asked, realizing my daughter was practically emo, fully observing her room.
Julia all of a sudden laughed and sat down. "What happened? Dad, you are broken and I'm going to lose you and I'm going to be lost and I'm going to miss you a lot and I'm going to be broken, and shattered, and I'll never date anyone because you won't be there to disapprove him and I'll never get married and I'll never have kids and I'll-" Julia started, but I hugged her, realizing she's scared.
"Honey your fine. I'm going to be there with you for the rest of my life." I replied. Julia jumped. "But who knows! Maybe you have a short life span!" Julia cried. She cried in my shoulder, and I kissed her cheek. "Julia. I love you. Your Mom loves you. Your brothers love you." I said, and Julia smirked.
"Brothers. Zachary and…" Julia started, and burst into tears again. "Dad. How did…N-Nicholas die?" she asked, her green eyes meeting my green eyes. "One day, a man named Jake used to date your Mom. He dumped her, she then dumped him, and we dated again. Do I have to tell you all that?" I asked, realizing that I'm talking about dating. "Yes." Julia said. "No." "Yes." "No." "Yes!" "No!" "Yes!" "Yes!" I gave in.
"Jake came by our house and took Nick. Your Aunt Darcy stayed with you, and we went to The Dot. There, three drunk guys had Nick. Jake Martin, Fitz Fitzgerald and Vince Buckner. Jake and I fought, and Jake took your Mom into an alley with Nick. Jake raped your Mom, then...he stabbed Nick. In the throat, and other places. Nick died, since the impact was huge and he was really, really young." I told her, and I cried.
Julia stared at me and gasped. "Dad! Jake Martin? He's my teacher!" Julia told me. "Oh yeah. He teaches now after he got out of jail." I remembered. "WAIT! HE'S YOUR TEACHER!" I yelled. "Yuppers. Enough of that, let's go downstairs." Julia replied, and dragged me downstairs.
Clare sighed, knowing that I fixed things with Julia. They were watching a movie, and Julia paused the movie. "Hey! We were watching that!" Zac protested. "Shut up. I have an announcement to make!" Julia coldly told him. "Go ahead." Fiona said, and Julia sighed. "Adam. Fiona. Alli. Dave. My Dad…has lung cancer!" Julia announced, everyone surprised.
There it is...Eli has been diagnosed with Lung Cancer. I'm not an expert at this, I'm doing alot of research and stuff so you guys can understand what he's going through. Eli and Clare are learning alot of things about their kids lately. Oooo! Jake is Julia's teacher! Want more! You guys get more!...3 REVIEWS TO UPDATE!
