"on a scale of 1 to 10, how much pain are you in?"
"six-" i say interrupted by a sharp pain in my chest. "ok maybe a seven."
when josh left the room, tears were streaming down his face....even though he didn't want me to see him i saw it anyways.
i jump as the door flies open, hitting the wall as a crying simon runs through the door.

simon was heartbroken when he learned that odette was hospitalised, he had to see her.
but up until this point he chose not to see her, he felt in his heart that he didn't deserve to see her.
no matter how much he loved her, he thought that josh deserved to love her and hold her and all the things that simon thought he didn't deserve.
"im sorry but you can't be in here right now." one of the doctors said to simon as he looked back and forth between odette and her heart monitor which has picked up pace since the entry of simon.
"i know- just please give me 3 minutes." simon says with a sniffle.
the doctors nod their heads, as the quickly exit the room leaving simon to say his goodbyes to his only love.
the only girl that's ever made him feel something.
"i didn't- i didn't want you to see me like this." odette whispers as sharp pains course through her veins.
"i had to see you." simon says going to the edge of her bed to hold her hand. "i'm so sorry, i wouldn't let myself cause you anymore pain, so i left."
"i missed you simon- i- i love you."
and with that, pain overtook her whole body making her yelp in pain. her skin suddenly colder and her face suddenly paler.
"alright we need you to get out of here now sir." one of the doctors called to him, making simon turn to leave.
never to see her again.
"im so sorry oddie, i love you."
as he heard her screams of pain
and she heard his screams of sorrow
they both knew at 3 am, that there was nothing that their love could do.
he looked up at josh, who's face was pale and eyes were filled with melancholy.
simon looked at the time, when the screaming stopped, and the beeping stopped.
time stopped.
and at 3:01 when she took her last breath, her heart stopped forever and the continuum was no more.
