Quinn sighed internally at herself. Outwardly she remained her normal quiet self. She knew she'd have to tell Rylee, sooner rather than later. Reese knew her story. The basics of it at least. He was someone she could easily talk to about things.
And he came with a sister that he was close to, and there were times, like when she'd visit this Christmas. And if Reese and Quinn ever became a couple...Her thoughts drifted on that idea for a second.

She liked Reese. Liked him as more than a friend. She'd slowly started to realize that after everything that happened at the lake, and well point was. There might be times she needed to talk to him with Rylee around and it could quickly get awkward and cause issues if she was always dragging him out of earshot of his sister.

Quinn didn't like it necessarily, but it was the best option.

She reached over to pet Neptune gently on the head. It figured her favorite animal would be a unicorn. Quinn wouldn't be surprised if Rylee turned out to be exactly the sort a unicorn would approach.

"Cancer," she said suddenly. "Reese knows about it, which is partially why I am telling you. But this doesn't leave this room, got it? You can talk to Reese about it, or Beth, or Octavia if you want. But that's it. I had leukemia, and today was the one year anniversary of the bone marrow transplant that gave my life again. Beth was the donor."

Quinn glanced in the mirror. She still had some confetti in her hair, but most of it was out and what was left would wash out later in the bath. "Alright, your turn. And I'll stick it all in a jar for you so you skip the treasure hunting next time. You'll have plenty of shiny right here."

Quinn swapped places with Rylee and started working on her hair, slipping the confetti into a jar she'd found in her bag after some digging. "That's why I can see them. My parents aren't....They probably shouldn't have ever been parents in the first place. They weren't exactly keen on changing their habits to accomodate a sick kid with some very specific needs to keep healthy. So, they booked me my own room at the hospital where I lived for over a year and a half while being treated. Made some friends going through their own problems there as well. Lost some of those friends too. The healers, in focusing on trying to save a life, didn't always pull the shade. That's how."
