Forever Young
Chapter Four
When I woke up, I went
on TicketMaster to see what concerts I could hit up this summer.
I saw that One Direction was coming to Louisville, KY! And the
Ultimate VIP tickets were actually pretty cheap! I went ahead and
bought two. One for me and one for Anna. It could be her birthday
present.
"Heyyyy!"
"Hey, clear your calendar for June 16-- the day before
my 17th birthday!"
"Whyy?"
"WE'RE GOING TO SEE ONE DIRECTION WITH ULTIMATE VIP
TICKETS, BABY!" I screeched into the phone.
"OH my God. OH MY God. OH MY GOD. OH MY FAHH-RICKING
GOD!"
"Hahaha, wanna come?"
"I know you're sick and all, but girl! Are you cray
cray!? Of course I wanna go!"
"Okiee. Ah, what am I gonna wear!?"
"I'm on my way," She said, then hung up. I ran
upstairs to tell Mom and Dad.
"Hey, Mom, I'm going to a One Direction concert on June
16th with Anna in Louisville. It starts at 7:30.. Should i just
rent a hotel room afterward?"
"Yes. I don't want you driving on the interstate that
late at night. Use the credit card," Mom told me. Did I
mention my dad is an anthesiologist who owns his own doctor
place? Yeah.. my 'friends' use to call me loaded.
"KAY. WHY is there nothing in your fridge?" I heard
Anna's voice. Yup, typical her, to go to my fridge right
away, haha.
"Psh, yeah, like I know," I told her, grinning.
"What the fu--dggee, who cares?" She said. She was
about to say something else instead of fudge, I could tell, but
my dad walked in and hated when she or I cussed. We laughed and
ran downstairs to my room. Anna and I are the same size
everything, I just have longer legs. She's tiny! You think
I'm short? She is 5' 1"!
"Ooookaaaaay. Let's see..." Anna said, thoroughly
searching through my closet.
"What are you looking for?"
"Your neon yellow tank that will show off my tan from
Cali!"
"That would be in the neons, stupid! Not the pants.." I
laughed. I have my closet color coordinated.
"Oh here it is! I'm gonna wear these blue jean shorts
with it.. and black TOMS!
"Ok.. then.. I'm.. gonna wear this white cami with this
floral print tank and black shorts and.. umm.. these green
converse!:
"Ooh! Cute!"
"Aha, I know, right? Ok, let's go try these on and make
sure they look ok." We tried them on, and I'll admit, we
looked pretty da.n cute. I couldn't help but smile. Even
though I was bald, and all cancerous, my best friend still loved
me to death,I was going to a One Direction concert, I was
going to meet One Direction, I can shop whenever I want, and this
outfit brought attention to my face, not my bald head. I was
happy. Very, very happy.
"Oh! And by the way, we're staying in Louisville from
the 14th to the 19th.. we check out at noon on that Wednesday.
The fourteenth is a Friday. Hope it doesn't matter," I
told her.
"You honestly think that my mom will care?" She asked
me. She has like five younger siblings.
"Well.."
"LOL. It don't matter. Now let's pack our bags for
Louisville! It's only a week away!" We packed EVERYTHING
two 17 year-old girls might need in a big city, and between the
two of us, we only had four bags, we probably could have only got
three bags, but that meant that someone would have to carry extra
weight. I felt like a boss.
"Kay Leigh?"
"Yes, muh best friend?"
"What happens if.. if you die?"
"Ha, that was out of the blue. And I don't know.. what
happens if I die? I mean, everybody you know is going to be dead
siooner or later."
"Yeah, but.."
"I get what you mean.." I told her. Tears streamed down
her face. I leaned in and hugged my best friend, knowing that I
didn't know how many of those we had left. She, Dillon, and I
could really pass as siblings! Dark hair and blue eyes..
"Ok, wanna watch some Spongebob or something? I can't
stand seeing you sad!" I asked her.
"YES!" We watched Spongebob, which automatically made
her happy. Her phone rang.
"Hello? Um, yeah, I'm at Kay's.. Ok I'll be home
in ten."
"Your mom?"
"Yea, wanting me to babysit again. I'll text you!
Byee!"
"Later!"
-Again, sorry

yeahh.. I have school starting tomorrow, along with volleyball
season, so it might be even longer now for me to post the
