Yume POV

"I'm sorry but unless we find a match there's nothing we can do right now."

I open my eyes to see that I'm in a bed. More specifically in a hospital bed. I see my parents talking to a doctor, that's when they notice me.

"Yume!"
My mother comes rushing to me, and pulls me into a tight hug. I stare at my dad.

What's going on?

Then I remember everything.

"Thank you doctor."
"I'll leave you two alone to tell her."

I stare at my father and the doctor in confusion. When the doctor leaves my mom pulls away.

"Yume please sit up..."
I listen to her. By the tone of her voice this is serious.

"Yume....maybe you should take a break from your Aikatsu..."
My eyes widen.
"What! Why!?"
"Because you have.........you have......"

She looks like she's about to tear up but tries to stay strong.

"You have Anemia."
"What's that?"
"That's the name of a sickness due to the lack of blood...."

My eyes widen.

I'm sick......
Due to the lack of blood......

"Yume tell us.."-I look up to my father-"have you been getting headaches alot? Getting out of breath easier then usual? Being more tired then usual?"

I can't talk, so I just nod my head.

Everything makes sense now......why I was tired that day after the beach.......why It's been harder to run..........why I feel more exhausted after performances........

"Mom.....dad...tell me......am I gonna be okay?"
They just stare at me.

"Yume....you're gonna need donors....but the doctors think it would be best if you were to get some of your friends to donate blood. But they would need to share the same blood type as you..."

"I'll tell them.....maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow but I'll tell them........"

They nod their heads. I don't really wanna tell them.....but they do need to know........

"Hey mom, dad?"
"Yes honey?"
"What's today?"
"It's still your birthday Yume. All your friends are waiting for you at S4's dorm, you can leave the hospital but....we will have to drive you there though. We don't want you fainting again...."
"Oh-okay......"

I get up from the bed slowly. We then inform the doctor that I'm leaving.

Before we left I overheard mom and dad talking to the doctors. And what I hear I couldn't believe it...

While in the car we don't say anything. I still can't believe that I'm sick......it seams so unreal....
I stare at my lap. But I'm gonna be strong!

When we reach the dorm I step and and kiss my mom and dad goodbye.

I take a deep breath and walk inside. What surprises me is that I see everyone sitting on the couch. When they notice me the next thing is I see is Laura, Mahiru, Ako, and Koharu hugging me. And we're all on laying on the ground.

I give them a gentle smile.

"Yume~Chan! We were all so worried!"
"Are you okay!"
"Did you get sick!?"

Thats when time felt like it froze for a sec.

Should I tell them........no.....I don't want them to feel pain for me.......I don't want to be a burden for them.......

I give them a fake smile.
"I'm fine guys! Nothing to worry about!"

I notice Subaru staring at me.

Crap! Can he see through my smile!? I don't want to tell anyone.......at least not yet........

After we get up I tell them that I was sorry for making them worry so much.

"Yume~Chan it wasn't your falt, so don't blame yourself!"
I just nod at Hime~Senpai.

After awhile we all start chatting but I can't pay attention. I wanna talk to someone about this.....about me being sick.......but not anyone here....

Then someone comes to my mind.....

"Hime~Senpai?"
"Yes Yume?"
"Is there anywhere I can make a private phone call? Like a room?"
"Let me think....um.....oh! A guest room!"
"Where is it?"
"Down the hall the first room to the right."

I get up from my seat and follow Hime~Senpai's orders.

When I reach the room I close the door and lock it. I walk over to the bed and sit on it leaning against the wall.

I take out my Aikatsu Mobile. When I find the persons number I dial it. I press it against my ear, hearing the phone dialing.

"Hello?"
"Honoka~Chan?"

"Yume~Chan! How are you!"
"I-I'm fine.....

We stay silent for awhile.

"What's wrong."
"Huh?"
"Yume......I can tell somethings wrong with you.....tell me......what's wrong."
"We-well.....first off today's my birthday and everyine threw a surprise birthday party for me...."
"Really!? Happy Birthday! Wait why would that make you sad?"
"That's not it!"
I then realise I accadently yelled at her. I cover my eyes with my free hand.

"That's not it......" I whimper. I feel the tears start to fall down.

"It's just that-I just-" I take a deep breath.

"I'm sick.....not the type of, 'I have the cold' sick I mean sick sick. As in I have.......Anemia. Which means that I'm lacking blood in my body....."

She doesn't say anything. But I hear her breathing.

"Actually.....something happened to μ's too. Nobody's sick or anything but I think I should tell you...."
"What is it?"

"I-It's nothing to worry about! Really!"
"Honoka. Even if it's not as big as what's happening to me I still want to know....so please.....tell me...."
"Are you sure."
"Positive."
"Oh-okay then...."

She pauses. Like she doesn't want to say anything.

"μ's is gonna disband...."
My eyes widen.
"Why?"
"Because Eli, Nozomi, and Nico are gonna graduate soon and we all agreed that if one member of μ's gone....isn't μ's at all....."

"I'm gonna have to get a donor. And then I think I might have surgery......but I'm not sure.."

We stay silent for awhile.

"When are y'all gonna disband?"
"After the next Love Live."

Love Live? I've heard about that somewhere. Oh right! That thing for school idols! I researched all about School idols last week.

But then I remeber what my parents and the doctor where talking about.....
I wanna tell someone....I want to cry about it with someone.....

If I can tell anybody right now.....it's Honoka.....

"Honoka?"
"Yeah?"

"I actually heard my parents talking to the doctor before we left....."

"And?"
"And........"

I take a deep breath ready to confess about what I wasn't supposed to know.

"If I don't get a donor in the next month.........

I'm gonna die......."
