AN: This chapter is a little short! Sorry! Hope you like it anyway!

Claire was lying down in bed, she had just came back from an MRI, apparently her situation had gone worse, and she couldn't help but to feel a little frightened. Lowering her head to her pillow she started thinking about what had happened in the past few days, it had been four days since she met with her brother and they agreed in having a sort of friendship, he said he would help her during all the time that she is in the hospital and hopefully someday they would be able to be a family, but that for now he wasn't ready, she understand a little why he wasn't ready, apparently he had no family at all left before she came and that his relationship with his father was very difficult and she only knew that because his girlfriend told her.

Chase came to visit her everyday, informing her about her status and reassuring her that they were doing their best to find out what is wrong. During those visits they also talked, well Claire mostly talked, he just listened, she told him about her life, school, how she is considering doing journalism in college… she could tell that, even with his lack of response, she was starting to grow on him, he didn't have a pained expression while looking a her anymore and he also had stopped to look at the ground all the time. Although they weren't having the relationship she hoped they had, she was happy with the way things were going.

Another person that always visited her was Dr. Cameron; after their talk she visited her everyday, bringing food, clothes… anything to make her feel comfortable. They talked a lot; Cameron seemed very interested in her life and what she was going to do when the whole disease thing was over. Claire appreciated having someone other than a distant brother to talk to, although she was certain that Cameron was only doing that because of Chase. She didn't understand why she felt necessary to spend time with her and help her, she guessed that Cameron wanted to get to know her boyfriend's sister and she could feel that she also felt pity for her, for the fact that she has no family and is sick.

She was thinking in all of these things when she heard a small knock and saw Dr. Foreman entering the room.

"Is everything alright?" he asked her, and she just nodded, she guessed that at least physically she is alright at the moment.

He walked closer to her and took the chart in the end of the bed and made a few observations.

"Your MRI was negative for lymphoma" he said to her, she nodded again and gave him a little smile.

"That's good isn't it?" she asked hopeful.

"In a way I guess, but that only get us to having no idea again" he explained, she felt a bit saddened when she realized that.

"So, do you have any other idea?"

Foreman dropped the chart on the table and walked over to the meds cabinet.

"Yes, we think you might have Goodpasture's syndrome, we are going to start the treatment to confirm our theory" he said grabbing a syringe.

"Ohh, ok, is that thing treatable?" she asked him.

"Yes, you can do just fine" he reassured her.

He turned around with the syringe with the meds in his hands and he immediately ran to her side when he saw her eyes. Since he walked in he haven't really looked at her, and didn't see her yellow eyes, she was jaundice.

He examined her eyes and she got really scared by the abrupt change of reaction.

"What is it? What's going on??" she asked desperately.

"Your eyes… they're jaundice" he said and after he saw the puzzled expression in her eyes, he explained "Your liver is shutting down"

"What does that mean?" she asked with fear.

"It means it's not Goodpasture's syndrome"
