Chaeyoung Imagines (gxg)

"Hi, baby!" Chaeyoung cheerfully said as she walked into your shared bedroom. "I had the most amazing day today! I want to tell you all about it."

She was feeling extremely happy and was in the best mood today as she'd had an amazing day spent with the girls.

However, she noticed that something wasn't right with you as your head had been hung when she first walked into the room, and you still have it hung now.

"Hey, what's wrong?" She asked as she took a seat beside you. "Are you feeling okay today?"

You shook your head and looked up at her with tears in your eyes.

Your lower lip was trembling and your heart ached as you dreaded revealing the news that you'd gotten just a little while ago, shortly before Chaeyoung arrived home.

"Baby, what is it? What's the matter?" She asked as she scooted closer to you.

She brushed her thumbs under your eyes to catch any tears that fell.

"I don't know how to say it." You sniffled. "I'm so scared, Chaeyoung, and I don't know how to tell you this."

"Baby, it's alright. Just tell me, it's okay." She said as she brushed her fingers across your cheek comfortingly.

Over the last few weeks, you haven't been feeling well.

And you just got a call today confirming your worst fears imaginable.

The words are weighing heavily on your shoulders and as hard as it was to hear them, it was even more difficult to tell the one you love more than anything else about them.

"The doctor called before you got home. Chae... I have cancer."

For Chaeyoung, it seemed as though the world stopped spinning.

It wasn't at all what she expected to hear.

She knows you haven't been feeling well lately but she never would've imagined that it would be because you have cancer.

"Chaeyoung? Say something. Please." You spoke through your tears, bringing Chaeyoung out of her thoughts. "Chae, I'm so scared."

She swallowed the lump that was forming in her throat and then pulled you into her arms.

She wanted so badly to make it all better.

That's what she always does for you.

When you're scared, when you're sad, she always tries to make it better.

But this is one thing she couldn't make better.

She couldn't take it for you or just hug you until you felt better because that's not how this worked.

Closing her eyes, tears slipped down her cheeks as she struggled to find her voice and the words on her mind.

"I know you are, baby. I know you must be feeling terrified. I am too." She said as she held you tightly. "But I'm here for you."

"I didn't think this would ever happen to me. Not at this age. I thought I had my whole life ahead of me. Now all those things I dreamt of doing are just ruined."

"No, they aren't. You're still going to do them, baby. We're going to do all those things we dream of and live a long happy life together. Because you're going to fight and I know you can overcome this."

You nodded your head before setting your forehead on hers.

"I know it's scary but I know you're strong enough to fight this. I need you to fight it for me, okay?" She sniffled. "Whatever lies ahead of you, whatever you have to do, we'll do it together. I'm going to be right there with you every step of the way."

Your lower lip trembled and you clutched onto her for dear life, feeling more terrified and unsure than you ever have before.

You didn't know what was going to happen or what the future held.

But one thing was for certain: you would do your hardest to fight this.

Cancer wasn't going to get the best of you; you were going to use every ounce of strength inside of you to fight it.

"You can face this." She said as she stared into your teary eyes. "We'll look into all our options and we'll do whatever it takes. You're going to be okay."

You knew, deep down, that she was trying to convince herself of that just as much as she was trying to convince you.

"Okay." You said with a shaky breath before throwing your arms around Chaeyoung.

Cancer was scary, there was no doubt about that.

But you had Chaeyoung there by your side and you knew that despite all the fears you both felt, you'd be okay.

Because you weren't going down without a fight.

And through it all, through whatever may come your way, Chaeyoung would be right there to hold your hand and hold you up, no matter what.
