She served their plates, setting one in front of him. "I've been feeling better the last few months, and I'm on new medication. I'm not on chemo anymore, and that's what really tires you out."

"Yeah." Eli was sort of familiar with it, since he volunteered with the cancer children. "And Violet? Is she sicker than you were?"

She nodded, biting her lip. "It's been...rough for Violet. She's been sicker than me, too. I was stage two. She's stage three. But I was older, so I kinda took it on to make it easier on them." She began to eat.

Eli poked at his casserole. "I feel like an idiot for being such an asshole to you, Nat."

Natalie sighed. "Don't. I was a bitch. Don't treat me like I wasn't, just 'cause I'm sick."

"I'm sorry! I can't help it. I'm a human." Eli told her, offering her his best frowny face. "Do you forgive me?"

She laughed, then smiled at him. "Yeah. Yeah, I forgive you. You forgive me for following you?"

"Nope," Eli replied, grinning and filling his mouth with casserole. "I'll be guilt tripping you for a lot longer for that one. I can't believe you did that."

Natalie blushed, pursing her lips at him. "I was curious, I told you. Not like I think less of you."

"You could have just asked, you know. Ever try that?" Eli said, wishing that he totally didn't forgive her already.

She shrugged. "I didn't trust you yet." She bit her lip again. "And after knowing you slept with Ashley, I'm still not sure I do."

"We're friends, Natalie. Let's just keep it simple for now, alright?" He offered, cleaning his plate. her maid's meals were SO. GOOD. "I know I'm exciting and all because I'm new, but you honestly have been the only person who has liked me so far for me." He knew he was lame saying that, but this girl was sick, he didn't wanna waste any time beating around the bush with her.

She nodded, moving to stand beside him. "You...intrigue me, Eli. You're different. A good different."

"Can I tell my mom you said that?" Eli asked, laughing.

She smiled a little, then took his hand. "Come on. Doctor's appointments make me tired."
