Chapter 2

"Hes DEAD!?!?" Krista screamed. She hung up her phone. She was in a state of shock, awe and she couldnt believe it. He had always helped her through her guy problems, he was like a brother to her, and just like that he was DEAD. Gone, kaput, and totally and utterly gone. The rest of thier lunch table looked shocked as she told them the news.
"Okay guys I know this is hard for you guys but Edward died" She said. Everyone there had a frown on thier face, sad of thier loss.
"Lets have a moment of silence to honor him" Mai said. They all sat there, quiet. Lauren felt good to have called Krista and told her. The nurse called her into Edwards room, she went in even though he was dead, she could look at him one last time. She walked in only to see him there smiling at her.
"You so owe me for this." He said with a grin.
"Oh my god! You're ALIVE!!" She said happily. She ran to give him a big hug, after all he WAS one of her best guy friends. Krista would be so happy!! Uh oh.. Krista, Lauren felt this was the right time to call her. But maybe in a little bit.
"So, what were you guys gonna do if i was dead? Cry yourself to sleep?" Edward asked, laughing.
"Uh no way, Mai, Melanie, and Krista might but I didnt really care." Lauren stayed strong, even though she felt the complete opposite of what she told him, she didnt care. He didnt need to know THAT part.
"Well a certain paramedic told me that a brunette that looked like Anne Frank was crying her eyes out when she saw me passed out" He said.
"I DO NOT LOOK LIKE ANNE FRANK!" She yelled.
"You could pass for her if you cut all your hair off." They laughed. Lauren smiled, then the doctor came in and looked at Edward.
"I have bad news" He said.
"What is it?" They asked.
"Im sorry, but you have a month to live, your kidney was damaged in the accident, and you need a donor. I'm sorry, but if you dont get a replacement, you'll die. Youre blood type O, which is an extremely hard match to find. Do you have any friends that may be able to be donors?" The doctor asked. Edward thought about it, Krista WAS a sister to him, but she hated being anywhere near the operating table, sometimes he couldnt believe she wanted to be a doctor! Mai's kidneys were probably ruined from all the alcohol she drank on weekends. Melanie would just laugh. Oriana might. But he knew definitly that Lauren wouldnt.
"I'll take a donor test" Said a voice. Edward couldnt believe her eyes, she was really gonna do it....
