You're the One for Me

Chapter Thirty-Six

~~ When I said I'd about last week but didn't...oops? Sorry it took me so long, hopefully this chapter makes up for it!

Anyway, feel free to listen to the song on the top. It's called "The Fault In Our Stars (MMXIV)" by Troye Sivan (who has the voice of an angel by the way). ~~

**Still Ben's POV**

A couple weeks later.....

Rose and I had visited her dad every few days over the past couple weeks and every time we'd visit, he just seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. It was horrible seeing him go through this, and I felt even worse for Rose. She'd leave with tears in her eyes every time.

Today however, we were sitting next to each other in class when they called her name over the speaker.

I looked over at her and she was practically frozen.

I placed my hand over hers. "Rosie?"

She shook her head as she looked over at me. "You don't think-"

"I'm right here for you. Call me and I'll be right out there with you."

"Thank you."

She gave me a quick peck on the cheek before grabbing her things and making her way to the office.

I really hoped everything was alright and it wasn't what we thought it was.

A few hours later.....

Jess, John, Zac, and I were sitting at our usual table at lunch when my phone started ringing and I saw Rose's name flashing on the screen.

"Hey, Rosie. Is everything okay?" I asked her.

"Could you maybe come to the hospital please? I know you guys still have other classes after lunch and everything, but I just really need you here." She said.

"Say no more. I'm on my way."

"Okay, thanks. I love you."

"Love you too, Rosie. I'll see you soon."

Disconnecting, I looked over to my friends staring at me, waiting for answers.

"This might be it." I told them.

"Let's go then. I don't want to be stuck here when I could be supporting my best friend." Jess said as she stood up, the rest of us following suit.

Within minutes we were making our way to the hospital and up to Rose's dad's room. We saw her mum standing out in the corridor once we got up there and she looked beside herself.

"How's he doing?" Zac asked her.

"The doctor's say we should be saying our goodbyes now. I've said mine. Alex and Rose are in there now saying theirs." She explained.

"We're so sorry." Jess apologised, giving her a tight hug. "We're all here for you guys."

We sat down in the waiting area and after a few minutes there were doctors and nurses rushing down the hallway followed by screaming.

"He's gone." Rose's mum said as she put her head in her hands and Jess and Zac were sitting next to her immediately, trying to sooth her.

There was a loud slam followed by even more screaming.

"Dad! Dad? Please, no! No! Dad, wake up! Please, Dad!"

I got up and raced to the room, following the screams and the cries. I pushed open the door to find people zooming around the place. Looking around, I saw Alex and Rose near the window, her hugging him for dear life.
