Hey again is me :) Supervalorians thank you so much for the support for this story :)
Mel's POV
Chris wheeled me down the hall to a fair size room with sunlight, and couches, and chairs. "You here I heard what happened, are you ok?" Imra asked, I smiled and laughed, "I'm fine, I just wasn't feeling the best" I reply. "Yep that's what Chemo does to you," she says nod. "Oh Imra this is Chris, Chris this is Imra"I say, they shake each others hands "Jeremy, or Chyler not coming?" She asked more for Jeremy. "No, they don't know this incident happened, so just kept on the down low please" I say begging. She nod's. Chris wheels me over, he pull up a chair sitting next to me, I lean over and whisper "Imra has a crush on Jeremy, that why she was asking more for him" I say making him smile
Halfway through the session, everyone got up and went to get some biscuits, but I just sat there, smiling at everyone that walked past and said hello, had some quick talks with some of the people that I met while Had my first few sessions of Chemo. Chris leaned over to me. "Did you want a biscuit or water?" He asked "No it's all good, thank you" I replied with a smile. "Ok" He replies, "So are you going to speak in this session?" He asks me. "No, just listen, I don't like to flaunt on how I'm not well, how I'm sick, because there are people much worse off, plus it's not me," I tell him. He nod's "She hasn't spoken once in one of these things since I brought her to one, not even when Jeremy or Chyle come" Imra says, Chris nod's "Maybe I can change that" He says and once everyone sits down, he speaks "Melissa has something to say" he say with a cheeky smile, that I find adorable. Everyone turns their heads to me. I immediately feel overwhelmed, by the attention. I swallow the lump of spit the is lingering in my throat. "I went back to work today," I say, everyone claps. "And how did that make you feel?" One of the trained phycologist asks that comes in and deals with us 'sick people'. "um good" I reply "It must be hard because you fainted?" He asked. "Um yeah" I reply. "Excuse me," I say trying to wheel my self out, Chris helps me and wheels me out. "Can we go back to my room"I say and. He nod's. When we arrive back at the room, he helps me back upon the bed. "Are you ok?" He asked. "Yeah, sorry as I said, I don't like to share, I'm a simple person that doesn't talk about her self much so it's hard" I tell him. He nods. "Do you want me to stay here for your Chemo?" He asked me, as much as I really wanted him too didn't want to stop him from living his life. "Um if you want, I don't want to stop you from anything" I tell him.
"No, I'm all good I'll just get dinner and my bag from work on my way home," he says smiling sitting down on a chair.
"Ok," I replied, with a smile, that someone other Chyle or Jeremy, cares and is willing to stay with me.
"So I know I asked you this but what would you want to do if you didn't work with Cat grant?" He asked me.
"I don't know. I mean I always like to learn, so maybe be a teacher and work with kids?" I said really unsure. He nodded.
We sat there in silence before my food came in that I don't remember ordering.
When I looked down at the food, I remember why Chyler or Jeremy got me from the cafeteria or some cafe around here or even Cat bringing my food from the cafe.
Once the nurse left that gave us the food, who looked grumpy and well noting wanting to be here, Chris and I looked at each other and giggled.
"Did you want me to do get you something else?" he asked me. I nodded "Anything you want?" He asked me. "Umm, an ice-cream, fries," I asked me.
"How about a salad, or a better sandwich?" He asked me, I nodded. "I'll be back" he replied grabbing his jacket and walked out, I smiled
Chris had been gone for about half an hour, I was starting to feel tired and knowing that I was going to have a round of Chemo tomorrow, I decided to shut my eyes for a bit, and hope that Chris would wake me up when he got back from getting food. After I fell asleep, I didn't realize that he came back in, felt him kiss my forehead and sigh, after that, I was sound asleep.
As I started to wake up, I turn on my side to see Chris sitting in on a chair, sleeping I chuckle making him stir, rubbing his eyes. "Hi, sleepy head," I say. "Hi" he replies in a hoarse voice. "Did you stay here all night?" I ask him. "Yeah I was going to wait till you woke up so you could have your dinner, then I started to fall asleep." He told me. I nodded and smiled at the fact that he actually stayed with him, neither Chyler or Jeremy would stay with me overnight. "Thank you," I said, he looked at me confused. "Why?" He asked. "For staying with me, overnight you didn't have to," I told him. "It's all good, so do you normally eat before you have Chemo?" He asked. "Um yeah, just some plain toast," I tell him. "what about a coffee?" He asked
"Chris you don't have to, I will just eat what they give me," I tell him. "Plus I still haven't eaten the meal you brought me last night" I reminded him. Ah yes, "It's ok you can take it home." He replies with a smile, as he was about to leave Jacinta came into the room.
"You're doing your chemo at home!" She said happily. "WHAT! NO" I asked happily, she nodded "yeah Cat kinda said that you should have at home, so how about you and your hansoms friend get ready and I will drop you home," She says and starts to walk out. "Ah, Jacinta I need this taken out if I am going home," I say, "Right" she replies and starts to take out all the cords.
