*CHARLIE'S POV*

I hurriedly walk escaping from the huge pile of fans around the hall asking for pictures. The meeting is done and we've talk about a performance next week. I was surprise I was chosen by the producer of the show, though. 

I thanked my manager and the people and I mouthed "I'm going" and they nodded. I grab my phone and dialed my guard to ask if the parking lot was clear so I can go to my car, he said yes so I put my shades on and the hood of my jacket.

I made it to my car and as I go in I texted Faye, 

Going home now. See you! Want pizza?  

I sent, though I know the answer, just to make sure.

Is that even a question duh xx

I smiled and I started my car. I drop by the nearest pizza drive through I could see and order 2 boxes of large pizza because my girlfriend loves it more than me. 

"Babeeee!" She cried as I walk through the house and my mood suddenly went up right away just by seeing her for a second.

"Hello beautiful!" I said, and she smiled. "Here's your pizza." 

"Aww thank you! C'mon let's eat it together, because I love you!" She smiled widely and I chuckled. 

"Let's g-" I stopped talking when I noticed something, It's really heartbreaking to see this. I notice hair on the floor and the carpet, also in her back. Lots of hair. 

She stopped walking and stare at me. I stare at her and go hug her.

"Wha-" She paused. "Oh. I'm..." 

"Shh." I said. 

"I'm - I'm loosing my hair." She sobbed and I hug her even tighter. 

"It's just the effect of the chemo, baby." I said trying to calm her down.

"Am I dying?" She cried. 

"No!" I shouted. "Don't you ever say that! You're not dying! You're not giving up! You're not! We're not giving up!" I exclaimed.

She broke down in a second and cried. I notice that her hair becomes thin and unhealthy, and she looks pale. The effect of hours not seeing her and then coming back, it's surreal. She looks so sick. But still, we're not gonna give up on her. I sigh.


"I'm sorry for shouting..." I said hugging her.

"It's okay." She sigh too. "Let's just eat, okay?"

"Okay." I smiled and kiss her forehead.

"Help me walk, please." She said and I nodded, not questioning her. 

I helped her walk to the living room. 


After minutes of silence she finally speaks.

"How's your day, babe?" She asked.

"It's okay, just emergency meeting. Concerts and stuff." I stated. I sigh.


"Sounds busy." She chuckled, I smile.

"Yeah, kinda boring. So many meetings, I miss performing, though. But there's nothing much now and holiday is almost approaching. Anyway, where will we spend our Christmas?" I asked her.


"I don't kn-"

"Wait!" I said. She raised her eyebrows. "How about we meet my parents? They sure miss you."
