They all had dinner and Tess noticed that Zoe was constantly watching nick who looked very pale Zoe left to go to the toilet and Tess followed her.

"What's up with you" said Tess as she entered the toilet

"Nothing" said Zoe

"It can't be nothing" said Tess "your acting differently, your acting strange"

"I asked nick was he in pain" said Zoe

Tess went silent then walked over to be closer to Zoe

"And what did he say" said Tess

"Nothing, he just ignored me" said Zoe looking in the mirror

"I know you just want to help" said Tess "but there is nothing we can do"

Zoe half smiled and then watched as Tess left the room, Zoe waited another 2 minutes before going back into the restraint and sitting down at the table with Tess, fletch, Charlie, max and nick.

20 minutes later they paid the bill and went to sit down in reception where there was music playing

"Nick, about my question earlier" said Zoe looking at nick

Nick had been waiting for this all night, he knew that Zoe was going to ask sooner or later because when Zoe gets something into her head she can't continue until she knows the answer and sorts it out.

"Yes" said nick simply not wanting the others to know what Zoe's question was

"Nick, you should have said" said Zoe

"There is nothing anyone can do" said nick

Zoe sighed and took another sip of her drink, 10 minutes later max and fletch walked up to get another round of drinks.

"Nick your very pale" said Zoe

"Just a migraine" said nick rubbing his head

Zoe raised her eyebrows at nick as she knew that he was lying

"Ok" said nick "sore stomach, migraine and vomiting"

"Nick why didn't you tell me" said Zoe standing up

"Cause I wanted you to enjoy yourself and didn't want you to go all doctor on me" said nick

"Right we are bringing you back to the hospital where you can get checked over" said Zoe

Zoe signalled fletch and max to come over

"Zoe there is nothing they can do" said nick standing up

"Nick I am not having you in pain" said Zoe

Nick knew that Zoe would never give up so he decided to let Zoe have her way and go to the hospital

"Where are we going" said max

"Hospital" said Zoe "but there is not enough room in the car so someone is going to have to get a taxi"

"Me and max will" said fletch

Fletch and max went over to the reception desk to call a taxi. While nick, Tess, Charlie and Zoe went in nicks car and Zoe was driving.

"Slow down" said nick

"Sorry" said Zoe

Zoe smiled when she noticed nick smiling at her. They soon arrived at the hospital where max and fletch were sitting waiting for them.

"How did you get there before us" said Zoe

"Very fast taxi driver" said max smiling

"What have you done" said Zoe to max crossing her arms

"Nothing" said max smiling

Zoe walked over to the reception desk and 30 minutes later nick was shown to cubicle's where he was looked at and later transferred to the cancer ward again.

"Why am I here" said nick

"It's for your own benefit" said Zoe

"I have about 2 days to live and I am not spending it somewhere I have spent most of my life working" said nick sitting up

Suddenly a doctor came in

"Mr Jordan" said the doctor

"Yes" said nick

"We have transferred you up here as there is a new operation that has become available" said the doctor "if it is successful you will live a normal, healthy and full life, there is a fifty fifty chance of survival"

Fletch, Charlie, Tess, max and fletch exited the room knowing that Zoe is the closest to nick and he would only want her there.

"Fifty fifty chance?" said nick

"Yes" said the doctor "but to have it you will have to give up the 2 days you have left"
