Divergent High

Chapter 29

Tris pov

Tobias and I sit in the doctors office waiting patiently for her to give me back my blood test results.

After the mountains trip Tobias thought I should see the doctor because I was still sick. They did a full exam and blood work. Today's the day we find out what's going on with me.

I bounce my leg up and down, nervous because while everyone thinks I'm just pregnant going threw no periods and morning sickness I feel like it could be something else.

Tobias puts his hand on my leg and grabs my hand.

"What are you so nervous for? Everything is going to be okay" he says

"I have a feeling I'm not pregnant" I say worriedly

"You probably are. Now please stop worrying, you're going to make me worry" he says kissing my head

There's a knock at the door and the doctor enter.

She sits across from us at her desk and I quickly grab Tobias hand.

"Doctor please tell tris she has nothing to worry about. She's freaking herself out" Tobias says with a laugh

"I'm sorry but Tris you have ovarian cancer" she says and my mind goes blank. I'm in shock

I look at Tobias with tears in my eyes and he looks at me with sad ones.

"I know this is a lot to take in but we immediately have to start thinking of your options. Ovarian cancer is rare but when it does happen it's very tricky to treat" the doctor says and I just put my head in my hands.

"What are her options" Tobias says

"I highly recommend chemotherapy and radiation" the doctor says and I look up

"If those treatments help we can go with the option of surgery but that would mean your reproductive system would be very limited to ever having children again. I understand you have 3 kids already was having more an option for you" she says adds and I look over at Tobias

"I mean we are not planning to anytime soon but we also didn't want to give that option up" I answer

"If it means we have no more kids it's fine with me as long as you stay healthy" Tobias says holding my hand

"Are we going threw with these treatments then" the doctor says

"Whatever keeps me living. I don't want to die" I say breaking down in tears again

"Fight hard" the doctor says

"She will" Tobias smiles at me

"She always does" he adds and I smile back at him

"I will schedule a chemo appointment for you this week then we will go from there" the doctor says and we were free to go
___________________________________

It's been a day of finding out about my cancer and it just seems so unreal. My parents and Tobias parents were a reck when we told them but they like always are here to support me.

Tobias took off from work today because he wants to be near me at all times. He's super protective, but I love it.

"Tris, I picked up the medicine the doctor wants you to take" Tobias says walking into the house, he was at the pharmacy.

The bag is huge just for medicines.

"There's only some you take at night but the rest you take 3 times a day" he says reading the instructions

He pours the medicines on the couch next to us and sorts them out.

I put my hands on his and he looks at me.

"I'm scared" I whisper

"Don't be" He says holding my cheek

"I'm going to change physically and mentally and that terrifies me. I just want to be there for you and our kids but as of right now I can't, I'm dying" I say

"You're not going to die. I believe that you can beat this" he says

I have no words and I can feel myself wanting to cry so I just kiss Tobias. He kisses me back laying me down. I quickly lift up his shirt and he pulls it off.

His lips come back down to mine and they move in the perfect pace. I pull away and lay my head on his shoulder.

I'm catching my breath. It's hard for me to breath now a days. I should let my doctor know about that.

Tears run down my cheek and Tobias lifts my head up.

"It's okay" He whispers

"I'm sorry I can't-" I say still trying to catch my breath but he interrupts me

"It's okay" He says again, wiping my tears.

He gives me a kiss on the head and grabs my medicine and sorts it out in my medicine case.
