My 心 rate increased, causing my 心 monitor to start beeping erratically. Not at the sight of Cameron, but at the sight of Mercury.
Cameron must've noticed because he ran up to me and said, "Vanessa, calm down."
I kept my eyes on Mercury. "What's she doing here?"
"You should be greatful that I came to see you", Mercury said.
"Mercury..." Cameron turned to face me. "She drove me here."
"After he hit you, the police too his car away", Mercury said, grabbing my 电视 vision remote and changing the channel.
"Hey!"
"Don't worry about the television, Vanessa." Cameron sat down on the 长椅, 沙发 chair closest to my bed. "Let's get started on what 你 missed." He placed the 图书 on the night 表 and grabbed the one on top. "In Geometry...." As he explained to me everything I missed, I couldn't help but feel as though he and I were the only one in the room.
"Cameron, babe, could 你 get me some water", Mercury said. Her voice slicing right through my trance.
"It's on the 表 beside you." He gestured to the 粉, 粉色 pitcher of water.
"That's gross hospital water! Get me some from the vending machine down the hall, please?" She looked at him with pleading eyes.
He looked at me. "Fine." He closed the book, put it on the 长椅, 沙发 chair cushion he was sitting on, got up, and left the room.
Mercury got up from the 长椅, 沙发 chair opposite of me. She closed the room door. "I know what you're trying to do", she 说 walking towards me.
I grabbed the nurse button for protection. "What are 你 talking about?"
"Trying to take Cameron from me."
Is she serious? "Are 你 serious?" Then it came to me. "You think I did this to myself?"
"Of course not. Cameron helped you."
"Huh?"
"Don't play dumb. 你 saw his car that night on the road. And 你 jumped in front of his car."
"You're being serious? Why would I do that?"
"Because 你 were looking for attention. The fact that Cameron was spending so much time with me was killing you. So 你 pull this stunt."
"You seriously think that I would purposely run in front of Cameron's car just to get attention?"
She nodded.
"Unbelievable."
Cameron came back into the room with a bottle of water. "What's going on?"
"Just fluffing V's pillow!" She pretended to fluff my pillow. "There." She patted my head like I was a dog. Then she took her 座位 back on the 长椅, 沙发 chair she was sitting in, and watched television.
Cameron closed the door behind him. He went over to Mercury to give her the bottle of water.
"Thanks babe." She grabbed him 由 the 衬衫 and kissed him. For 5 whole minutes.
Bitch.
Once she broke the embrace, Cameron cleared his throat and came back to sit beside me. "Now back to the lesson.."

~ Chapter 1: Dreams
Love. Unconditional and pure 爱情 was there, found in their hearts. Feelings, pure and strong lived from 日 to day.
But the days were cold. Cold wind froze their dreams.
A child was born.
Dreams, spreading its roots, now slowly fade.
But still live and last in the hearts of the dreamers.
A child wasn't a part of a dream, though.
It wasn't. But 爱情 was still there, although destroyed 由 many issues, it started fading slowly like a smothered flame.
Mother's eyes was full of hope and 心 full of love, so pure, so gentle.
She knew. Life won't be 牛奶 and honey, though she must be strong.
Looking at her baby girl, happy and sad in the same time, so many thoughts were flying through her head.
So many questions, perhaps a small dose of regret.
She felt sadness inside.
爱情 was still there, that pure 爱情 that kept them alive, though these dreams they both had were somehow far and unreal.
A flame of 爱情 was still burning...

Texas Rancho Viejo 1942
Bonnie's POV
I walked quickly down the dusty dirt road, I kicked and scrapped pebbels, It was hot and dry today, another great thing when your isolated! *CRASH* I gasped, I slowed to a stop and carfully and slowwly turned around. Behind me stood a man. He had wild brown hair and blue piercing eyes, He held a gun and a charcol covered teddy bear. He smiled and inchined twords me. "Whoa pardner, who are you?" I asked in my thick texian accent. "I am a friend" He 说 kindly. I suspiciously eyed him up and down. I reached into my back pocket and gripped my fingers around a gun I found. "Dont be afraid i'll make it all better" He moved closer to me, I panicked.Is this the phantom murder? I thought. I pulled out my gun and aimed it at him. "I dont think 你 will"
I 说 sweetly, then I triggered it and shot him, he fell to the ground stunned. I smiled. When your isolated in texas 你 cant trust anyone. and i mean ANYONE.

Always running
All the time,
Chasing a dream
As I follow the signs.
Out of breath
I miss a turn,
I wander the paths
Ready to learn.
I start to get impatient
I'm working so hard,
So how come I'm not there yet
I've played all my cards.
Life is like a rollercoaster
Mine never stops,
It takes me round in circles
Back to the start.
There are so many highs and lows
Yet they''re all the same,
I need a change of track
Something different to my name.
Each step I take aches my body
And I'm waiting for the day,
That a different train will come along
And take me a different way.

Dusty Streets
A blazing sun,
食物 and Water
There is none.
Living on hope
Crying out,
Helping others
Around and about.
Children Shouting
They wail and cry,
Willing for a change
A signal, a sign.
They're grateful for everytihng
Whatever comes their way,
They're constantly working
All night, all day.
The air is filthy
They cough and they weep,
They want to survive
They sniffle and sleep.
Begging off strangers
It's all they can do,
Someone to help them
It could be you.

I have a secret: I'm afraid. I'm terribly afraid that I AM GOING TO DIE. I didn't ask for leukemia. Nor did I expect it. Especially not chronic myelogenous leukemia. Especially when chronic myelogenous leukemia tends to affect the OLDER males, and I'm only what, 14?
But do 你 know why it has to be a secret? I have a family: my dad and Jae, my youngest sister. [Yeah, I have two more, but, they're out of my life at the moment.] They cried their hearts out once I was diagnosed. They were afraid that they'd lose another family member--after all, my mother passed away after a car accident. I promised to be strong. For Dad. For Jae. For Mom.
But if being strong means that I have to hold back all these tears, that I have to surpress all my fear in order to comfort my family, sometimes I wish I didn't make that promise.
