You and Liam have been friends for years. You were Liams step mother, thats why he loved being near you. Growing up, Liam didnt have a mom. he was like any typical boy with mommy issues, but you healed him once you came into their family. Youd eat with him, sleep with him, cry with him, and so much more. Liams father was grateful for you, loving you just as much

One late night, Liam was yapping away about the summer camp he was planning to work at. you stared at him, proud of the boy he had become, yet said you wouldnt be able to watch him continue to grow. you had been diagnosed with a terminal disease (your pick) and the treatment was expensive. Liam had no idea about it. Your husband knew and worked hard to try and help you through this, not wanting to lose you.

"Mom, you okay?" Liam tilts his head and leans closer to you

"Im fine baby...im just so proud of you!!!" You coo to the young man, placing your hands on his cheeks

He laughs and tries to pull away "Ma!!!"

The next morning Liam wakes up to the sound of sobbing. he sits up and goes downstairs, his heart pumping.

"I dont know what to do." You sniffle as you cry in your husbands arms "how do i tell him im dying... I cant leave him, Frank..!!!"

"What do you mean you're dying?! You didnt tell me?!?! For how long!? Mom!" Liam shouts, panic filling his eyes as the tiredness walks out.

"Oh...baby.." tears coat your face like a waterfall as you sob

He runs to you, hugging you tight as his own tears soak your shirt

"But you cant go!!!! I love you!!!"
