Cautious Love

"Shit-" I said, and was immediately by her side, pulling her hair back to look at her, then putting my arm around her holding her steady. "Shit babe... Are you okay?" I asked, and I carefully picked her up and set her on the counter.

The pain passed and I opened my eyes, looking down at him. "Yeah, I'm fine.."

"Babe no, you're not fine, that was a freaking pineapple.. And it caused you that much pain. Promise you'll see a doctor?.. That was unusual." I said softly, rubbing her leg gently.

"It was just a stomach cramp. I'll be fine. If it happens again I'll go, okay?" I took his hand and squeezed it gently.

I looked at her, and nodded after a moment. "Okay.. Sorry, that was just scary to watch." I said, and kissed her forehead softly. "I got the groceries, go sit.." I said softly
, lifting her down, and pecking her lips

I kissed him back softly, then I pulled away and smiled. "Okay." I pecked his lips one more time before going to the living room to sit down on the couch.

After unpacking groceries, I walked into the living room, and sat on the couch, pulling her into my lap, watching as she cringed in pain again.

It hurt, but I didn't want to worry Angus. I snuggled into his arms and closed my eyes, sighing softly.

"Sorry.." I said softly, and I hugged her to me, being more careful, but at the same time firm. I pressed my lips to the top of her head. "I love you." I said softly

I looked up into his eyes and smiled. "I love you too.." I answered, taking his hand and squeezing it.

I Grinned slightly, and squeezed her hand right back. "Have you been feeling okay?" I asked her. "The past few days there just is something different .." I said.

I sighed. "It’s nothing.. Im fine, really." I answered, sliding off of his lap.

I wasn't going to push. I just shrugged and said alright. I then got up and kissed her jaw before walking down the hall and too my room.

I sighed and got up, wincing slightly. Ouch. I went to my room and laid down, holding my lower stomach in pain.

I heard her go upstairs and I just browser on my computer and played some music quietly. Rammstein, favorite band.

The pain was becoming intensely worse. I began to sob quietly. My phone was downstairs and I was in too much pain to call out.

After a while of that, I decided to go check on Astoria, and I walked up the stairs and I could hair faint sobbing. Shit. I quickly walked into her room seeing her there curled up. "Hey hey.." I said trying not to panic. "Whats wrong? What should I do?" I asked her

I squeezed my eyes shut, my body trembling. "Get me to the hospital.." I said between sobs.

I tried to not , but that is near impossible for me. "Okay okay.." I said quickly and scooped her into my arms swiftly. Ldeep breaths babe.." I said and I walked down the stairs and out to the car quickly, strapping her in and speeding to the hospital

Once i was in the hospital, I was rushed to the emergency room and passed out from the medication.

I was forced to start back for a while.. I was told they wetter just running tests.. but on what ? I was getting no information !

They took blood and did a lot of tests. They soon let Angus in. I took his hand and squeezed it, smiling dopely.

I was worried.. so worried.. what if this thing was really serious? What if it was not treatable? Just all these things giving me anxiety at the moment.. I kissed her hand and I looked down, pressing her hand to my forehead. "I hope everything works out babe.."

I looked up into his eyes. ”Im sure i will be fine." I whispered but my eyes betrayed me. Im terrified.

I took a deep shaky breath. Her eyes were filled with doubt and it scared me.. alot..

A few hours later, the doctors came back and showed us x-rays. He said a lot of stuff that didn't make sense, but my heart stopped when he mentioned a tumor. "What does this mean, doctor?" I asked, sitting up and wincing in pain. "It means you have ovarian cancer."

I had gone to get us some food, so I had missed the news. I watched the doctors walk out as I was by the doorway. I walked in and handed her a yogurt and opened mine, handing her a spoon. "What did they say?.."

((Should he find out yet?))

(I guess so. She can tell him now, and he will propose soon then.)

I looked up at him and I set my yogurt down with trembling hands. "I.." I took a deep breath and felt fresh tears running down my cheeks. "I have cancer in the ovaries.."

I dropped my yogurt, and just looked at her... I didnt hear her right, thats what it was. I just tried to make something else out of the words.. but they clearly stated the thing I dreaded to hear..

"It's.. Fairly early.. And there is a surgery that could be done to remove the tumor but it's very risky.. And they said my chances of getting pregnant ever are about a 30 percent..."

This was real.. this was no little joke or anything like that. I sat down, and I started to shake.. Oh God Astoria..." I said, tears running down my cheeks now

I slowly took his hand and held it tightly in my own, and I was soon crying as well. "I'm so scared Angus." I whispered shakily.

I sat on the bed beside her, and I kissed her forehead.. "I'm scared too.." I said. "We woll fight this thing Astoria.." I said softly..

I closed my eyes and let myself calm down before speaking again. "Could you call my parents please?" I asked, my eyes remaining closed. It'll be too hard to tell them myself..

I nodded slowly. "Anything.. for you.." I said gently and I stood and walked into the hall and I did what she asked, calling her Mom and Dad. Once done, I walked back in, and I sat back in my chair and held her hand tightly.. "What do we do?.." I asked her

I sighed. "We decide if I should do the surgery." I answered. "We can decide that later..." The doctor came and gave Angus heavy pain medication and told him to only give it to me if it gets too intense. Then I was free to go.

We would discuss it at home.. after getting her medication , we headed out to my car and I helped her in, and handed her a water bottle. "Here.. check the dosage and take some." I said, and handed her the pill bottle.

I checked it out and took one pill, since the pain wasnt unbearable yet. We went home, then my mom greeted is and we were all crying together. Then my mom made me go lay down and she even tucked me in and everything before she went to work.
