Being woke up and told you have cancer and can never have kids is something Chastity never expected to happen on her 18th birthday. Her thoughts when she woke up that day were thoughts any rational person would think. “ What happened and why am I here?” but none of that mattered when she heard the news.

Now she lays in her hospital bed day after day, Treatment after treatment, surgery after surgery. Each day her anger and hatred for everything and everyone grew. She couldn't help but to be mad. Everyone else could have kids and live and she couldn't. Any logical person would be.

Chastity shut herself of from everyone. Not that, that was very hard with her parents. Though she couldn't help but to open up to one person, the person who stepped in as her best friend and care taker.

Chastity's door slowly squeaked open and in popped a head of blonde hair.

“I'm not sleeping, come in” Chastity's voice squeaked

In stepped a blonde hair, blued eyed woman in her 30's. Chastity made a attempt to sit up but failed miserably. The woman walked over and helped Chastity sit up.

“Chastity you know better than to do things yourself after a treatment” She chastised

Chastity sighed and rolled her eyes pushing her short dark red hair back.

“ I know Romy but I don't like feeling so useless. I'm almost 21 I should be able to do the simple stuff on my own.”

Romy chuckled her German accent came through thick “ Even woman 10 years into treatment can't do what you do on their own” she explained

“ Is that all I'm every going to be able to do? Shower and go to the bathroom by myself with nurse standing outside my door” Chastity groaned slamming her head back onto the pillows.

Just as Romy was about to answer until the doctor walked in. ' His hair seemed more Grey than usual. Maybe I'm stressing him out with the long hour surgery’s?' thought Chastity

For awhile the doctor didn't talk. He just flipped through some papers and occasionally scribbled something down. Romy just stood there waiting for the doctor to say something.

In the 2 years Chastity has been in FoundRock hospital, her and Chastity have become very close. They were inseparable at times despite their age difference. Romy was there when she had nobody. Romy felt bad at times for the girl, but never showed it knowing that Chastity hated people feeling bad for her.

“ OK Chastity” Doctor Sam boomed snapping Chastity and Romy out of their deep thoughts.

“ Your ovarian cancer seems to be spreading more. Now I would say you have 1 year before it hits your lungs meaning-”

“ Meaning I die” Chastity interrupted sharply making Doctor Sam flinch

“Unless we transfer you to a hospital in California” He said looking at his shoes

To be honest Doctor Sam was afraid of Chastity. She can get very violent at times and has. She has had to be satiated numerous times due to her outrageous violent streaks.

“ NO WAY! I'M NOT LEAVING KANSAS!” she shrieked “ I'M STAYING RIGHT HERE! NO MORE TREATMENTS! LET ME DIE!”

The doctor slowly shook his head.

“ You can stay here as long as you like Ms. Carol” Doctor Sam stated calmly not wanting to upset Chastity anymore. With that he left the room.

Deathly silence filled the space between Romy and Chastity until Romy broke it.

“ I'll stand by you and your decisions. Even if I don't agree. Do you want to notify your parents?” Romy asked taking a deep breath trying to keep her emotions in check.

Romy looked into the Bright green eyes of Chastity waiting for what seemed like days for a response.

“ No it won't make a difference. I don't want anybody else to bother me but you. I don't want to talk to anyone or about any treatments. I'm done” Chastity stated lowly

With a simple nod of the head Romy walked out and walked into a empty hospital room. In there she let out all of her emotions. All the sorrow and pain she felt for Chastity, all the things she would never experience flashed through her mind. Her first love, marriage, kids, and traveling. Being raised in Germany Romy was raised never to cry but she couldn't help it she loved Chastity too much not to.

Little did Chastity and Romy know there lives where about to change in more than one way.
