It's been 2 weeks now and Laura isn't doing so well. She's getting more weaker and weaker each day. It's getting worse. The doctor's think that Laura may die pretty soon but that didn't stop the Lynch family from believing. Laura is starting to lose hope too.

Laura:(asleep)

Ross:(watching her)

Stormie: Ross, don't you want anything to eat?

Ross:(shakes his head)

Stormie: Honey, are you okay?

Ross: Everyone's losing hope in Laura. The doctor's even her (sad)

Stormie: Well we haven't yet and we won't

Ross:(nods) I know

Stormie: I'm gonna go to the cafeteria

Ross: Okay

Stormie:(walks out)

Ross:(sighs) Laura, I know you can't hear me right now but please don't lose hope. I know you won't die. I know so. Just believe in yourself. I have hope, why don't you?

Laura:(still has her eyes close) Bc, I'm getting worse by the minute

Ross:(looks at her) You're awake?

Laura:(opens her eyes) Yeah

Ross: Why don't you have hope?

Laura: Bc look at me. I'm getting worse by the second. Rydel showed me a picture of Julie the day before she died and I look worse then her

Ross:(sighs) I know but just have hope Laura, please believe

Laura:(nods) I'll try Ross

Ross:(smiles hugging her gently) Thank you

Laura:(smiles) No problem

Ross:(pulls away) Where's the rest of your family?

Ross: Oh my dad took Ryland to football practice, Rydel is teaching her dance class and Riker & Rocky are at hockey practice

Laura: Aren't you in hockey?

Ross:(nods) Yeah but I wanted to stay here with you and I didn't want to leave my mom here by herself

Laura:(smiles) Awe

Ross:(smiles) I know. I'm a sweet guy

Laura:(giggles) You sure are

Ross:(smiles) You'll get better soon. I promise

Laura:(sighs) That's a big promise Ross

Ross: I know but I know that you'll be okay. I know so (holds her hand)

Laura:(smiles) Why do you have so much faith in me?

Ross: Bc you're my best friend and my sister and I just have the biggest faith in you. You're strong Laur, I know you can fight this

Laura:(nods)

Ross: I know you've been in a tough childhood but if you passed that then you can totally pass this

Laura:(smiles) Thanks Ross. That's really sweet

Ross: No problem. Anything for my favourite sister. But don't tell Rydel that

Laura:(giggles) You got it Rossy-bear

Ross:(whines) Laura! I told you not to call me that

Laura:(giggles) I can't help it. It's just really cute

Ross:(rolls his eyes)

Laura: Fine. You can call me... Laurie-bear then

Ross:(smiles) Yes! Laurie-bear

Laura:(Giggles) Rossy-bear

Ross:(chuckles) I have a feeling we're gonna get on eachother's nerves by this
