Previously

It's Ruby, she's in hospital its not looking to good…' I said to Casey not sure what to expect.

Casey shed a single tear then managed to speak 'Take me to the hospital please I need to see her.' Casey said in an anxious voice I immediately took him to my ute and yet again drove to the hospital. Casey was silent the whole trip but while I was driving I could see him silently crying, it broke my heart to see my little brother crying he obviously loved Ruby.

We got to the hospital quickly and Casey jumped straight out of the car he ran into the hospital with me right after him when we got to the place Ruby was taken to we saw Charlie talking to the doctor and she suddenly gasped and burst into tears. I looked into the room Ruby was in but her bed was empty. We walked over to Charlie. Casey spoke first.

'Please don't tell me I was too late,' He cried as he waited for Charlies reply.

Charlies POV

I looked up at them unable to respond. My mouth opened but no words came out, I shook my head and cried softly. I took a deep breath, I knew I had to tell them, Casey was in pieces and Brax didn't know how to comfort either of us. I opened my mouth again; although my words were merely a whisper Casey was able to hear me:

'No.. she… shes got… a t…u..m..our,' I whispered. 'RUBYS GOT A TUMOUR' I then yelled I couldn't come to terms with it.

'Charlie what are you saying? Is she going to make it? Your joking aren't you?' Casey said.

'OF COURSE IM NOT JOKING! …and…and..they don't know if shell survive another day.. the next…the next few hours are critical.' I burst out crying, and collapsed into Braxs' arms.

Brax's POV

'No.. she… shes got… a t…u..m..our,' she whispered. 'RUBYS GOT A TUMOUR' she then yelled.

'…and…and..they don't know if shell survive another day.. the next…the next few hours are critical.'

I was not expecting that poor Charlie, poor Casey…. Poor Ruby! Then Charlie collapsed into my arms. I didn't know how to react! One doctor ran up to us quickly picked her up and put her on to a bed. I stood outside while he looked after her in the hospital room. Then I remembered Casey, I looked around… Where was he?!

Charlies POV

I woke up and the first person I saw was a doctor then Brax standing outside looking lost. I asked for him to be called in.

Brax's POV

'Hey' I said ' You gave us a scare'
'Ahh sorry.. I had the most awful dream, Ruby… she had a tumour.' She then laughed nervously.

I looked away did she really believe it was just a dream or was she just trying to convince herself?

'Brax… Brax please tell me it was a dream… BRAX?!' I looked at her and sat beside her and pulled her towards me. She began to fight me off at first but then she just lay there crying into my arms.

Then my thoughts diverted back to Casey …Where was he?

Casey's POV

No she was wrong she had to be. If Ruby wasn't going to survive, what's the point of me living on? Why should I?

'That's right… how much will it cost? $2,500?!... I know, I know, you're taking a risk I get it but you'll have it in the next 2 hours right? Great… the sooner the better'

Next Time:

Where is Casey? And what is he planning? Will anyone actually realise what he is planning before he goes through with it?!
