The Knight.

We finished the meal, and we had a pudding for dessert. It was very delicious.

The rest of the evening was nice, relaxing. Us as a family just talking, laughing.. soon, her and I were back home, and I full on crashed in the bed.. both from the wine, stress, and just pure tiredness..

I changed into my pajamas and climbed into bed with the already sleeping Jay. I kissed his forehead and quickly fell asleep as well.

I was up at 6, chemo was at 7.. I sat up, and I gently woke up Annabelle. I quickly got ready, and we were both on our way..

When we got there, I got to stay with him for the blood tests and such, but not for chemo. I waited in the waiting room for him to finish.

It was hell. I hated it.. when I was done, I felt like shit. It was painful.. we had to do this every week. This was the very aggressive treatment.. I walked back into the waiting room, I felt sick, not so good.. "let's.. go home."

I got up quickly and gave him a bucket, in case he threw up. "Are you hungry?" I asked, once we got in the car.

I just concentrated on not puking.. "No.." I said softly. I didntwant to puke in the car.

"Okay." I drove us to our house and I helped him inside. I fixed him a glass of water and handed it to him.

I sat down. And took the bucket, and puked my guts out. It was very painfull to do so, then I took the glass of water, drinking it."Thanks .."

"No problem.." I whispered, rubbing his back. I kissed his cheek and then got up and went to the kitchen, getting a banana.

I got up, and rinsed the bucket out in the bathroom, and I took it to the bedroom, and I got a mint to suck on forthe bad taste in my mouth.

I finished my banana and then I called the other band members and told them today wasnt a good to meet up.

I remembered that I still needed a new phone. I sighed, and stood and headed back down, hearing her on the phone. "Tell them that tomorrow would be best." I said.

I nodded at him. "How about tomorrow? 8? Okay cool. Bye." I hung up and looked up at Jay. "What's up?" I asked.

I shrugged. "Nothing." I said, I pulled her into a hug, and kissed her forhead. It was only a matter of time before I lost weight, muscle.. my hair.. and probably looked like that guyfrom lord of the rings..

I smiled and hugged him back gently. "Babe, you have to eat something... At least some yogurt or something.."

I sighed, and nodded. I was not hungry at all, but I would do it for her. I took a yogurt from the fridge and grabbed a spoon. "Okay." I said.

"Good." I said, kissing his cheek. I sat with him on the couch. "So..."

"So, the band name." I said. "We should come up with more ideas." I saidn

I nodded. "Yeah.."

The next few weeks were brutal . With the chemo, I mean. Ive lost 7 pounds, lost my hair, obviously the band and herfamily knew now. I still tried to stay haopy and upbeat, and no one understood why when I had every reason not to be. Beanies were my new favorite thing, to hide my bald head. I had chemo yesterday, and today was band practice, we started to get music to the new songs I had written up. I took a break from practice for a few moments, just to resolve my headache and take a drink of water.

While the other band members fixed some notes, I played a few chords on the piano and in a kind of dream like way. "You let me down.. I lived through you.." I sang softly. It was a song I wrote, but it's not the type we do so..

I returned, and saw Annabelle, singing quietly to herself, I snuck up behind her and I hugged her softly, kissing her cheek. "You knownn we should use this." I said.

I chuckled and stopped playing, turning to look at him. "It's too soft.. And it's mainly piano." I said, leaning up to kiss him softly.

I smiled, and took her hand. "Every rock group, has a few songs that are slow like this. We could maybe add some acoustic to it. Or light drums.. "

I smiled. "Thanks." I said, smiling at him. I got up and we ran a few other songs. Afterwards, we sat around and ate pizza. "Guys, what do you think of, The Mystic's Dream?" I asked, thinking of a band name.

I wasnt hungry, I knew she would bug me about it. But i looked up at her suggestion for the band name. "I love it."

Everyone else seemed to like it so I was glad. After we ate lunch, I sighed and laid back. "I can't wait till we get this really rolling." I said excitedly

"I can start looking for gigs. What about the county fair?" I asked, it could help us get out there.
