Teacher's Pet

*Mae's P.O.V*

When I got to Gerard's house Summer was sitting on the stairs outside. Her head was in her hands an I knew she had been crying.
"Summer?" I didn't want to scare her. She looked up at me and her teal eyes were brighter than ever. Her eyeliner was running down her cheeks that were flushed. I felt so bad for her. Why is she so upset? She wiped her eyes and opened her mouth to say something but her eyes began to water again and she closed it. I sat next to her and wrapped my arm around her. She cried into my shoulder for at least five minutes before I spoke up.
"Summer? Let's go inside. People are beginning to look." I stood up and held out my hand to help her. I opened the door, pulled her inside, then closed it behind us. She went and sat on the couch. I brought over a box of tissues then sat next to her.
"He told me he loved me." She said between sobs, "He can't though. He can't fall in love with me, he'll just get his heart broken."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm...I'm dying."
"What do you mean?" I turned to face her straight on. She wrapped her arms around my neck and sobbed into my shoulder. After a few seconds she composed herself and sat back up.
"I...I have leukemia..."
"What?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing, "Is that why you don't want Mikey falling in love with you? You're afraid he will and then something bad will happen to you?"
She nodded then wiped her eyes. I pulled her into another hug and let her cry.
"Do you love him back?" She nodded her head, "Then tell him. Tell him about the cancer and tell him you love him."
She nodded again. We sat like that for awhile before she fell asleep. I laid her down on the couch and covered her with a blanket. I pulled out my phone and shot a quick text to Mikes.

Me: Hey Mikes, I found Summer. She's with me at the house right now. She's asleep on the couch. See you when you get home.

I put my phone back into my pocket and made myself some coffee. She looked so peaceful on the couch. She doesn't look sick. She looks....happy.
