I was watching Aleina from afar when I saw her body change from happy and relaxed to tense. Really fucking tense. I walked towards her as she started running towards the party again. One hand held her phone and her dress a little up while the other hand held her heels. I grabbed her arms with my hands when we were close enough to each other. Her eyes had found mine a few steps before we came to this position and I could see her cry.

"Aleina? What happened?"

"She's dying Charles and she didn't even fucking tell me! I need to go to Florence right now! I need to see her."

"I'll drive you. Come on."

"No you have to stay here for Marta and Ricardo. I'll just find a taxi."

"Then at least take my car. I'll fly to Florence tomorrow okay? I'll be there for you."

I gave her the keys of my Ferrari where her stuff was still in. She pecked my cheek before she ran to the car and I walked back to the party. I watched as I saw the Ferrari drive away quickly. I didn't know a lot about what is really happening but her face told me enough to not question of push it. This was what she needed and that's alright I guess. Marta rushed to my side and looked at the Ferrari just like I did.

"Is she leaving already? Why did she rush off?"

"It was important but I'm not even completely sure myself. I've never seen her so stressed out about something."

"Then why didn't you go with her?"

"She wanted me to stay here for you guys. I'm not pushing her... that wasn't what she needed now."

Marta nodded before going back. I staid watching the road where she had left a few minutes earlier. I sighed before I turned my head around. I looked at the party that was still going.

I had sped way too much probably but I couldn't care less this moment. I would pay back the tickets I would get. I arrived at the hospital still in my dress and heels all neat from the wedding. How happy I was with waterproof mascara. I rushed to the room Felicity was and indeed she was in the hospital. I hadn't seen her the last 2 weeks and I felt really guilty about that as soon as I saw her. Her blonde hair that she had gotten from my mother was draped around her face. Her blonde hair used to be so beautiful and thick but now it was thin and looked unhealthy. Her skin as pale as snow while she used to have this tanned skin. Her eyes half closed as she looked tired of fighting. She looked at me and smiled softly. I sat next to her bed and grabbed her hand.

"I'm so sorry I didn't tell you earlier Aleina... I didn't want you to worry about it or change your life for me."

"It's okay Feli... I'm here now and I'll stay till the end okay? How long it takes hoe uncomfortable if is. Maybe I'll go to the toilet or something in between but nothing more then that."

"Thank you..."

"Your my sister... I would give you the stars if we could reach them."

"I know and I'm thankful that you've always been there for me. That you paid for my needs because you wanted me to enjoy my life more because we both knew it would come back eventually."
