This is basically just a rough outline of the story:
Main Character: Chase Matthews (last name subject to change)
Plot: A rich boy who lives in South Dakota because his parents want him to live a normal life, and he does. He's the town golden boy, he has a serious future.He has a bunch of friends, and his best friend Melony that he secretly likes.
But his parents are always absent - one day he has some headaches and comfortableness, so he stops by the doctor. And finds out he has a very rare form of cancer, the doctor tells him that he has exactly ten months before the disease takes him.
Spoiler! :
Of course he doesn't tell his parents, because he knows that his parents will get him medical attention and he'll rot in the hospital for the rest of his life.
So he goes to his friend, the extremely eccentric multi-billionaire Lawrence Buckly - for whom he house-sits and does work for, he's very old and starting to ail, bedridden. He tells him about his concerns, and he imparts upon him a great gift.
A black plastic card that contains the equivalent to all his riches, in all the currencies he can ask for. A get of of jail free card in almost all the countries.
He takes the card, and then he runs away, and he's gone for ten months, doing all the things he's ever imagined of doing. And he returns, ten months to the day.
He walks into his high school, and finds Melony. And he just stands her up in the middle of class, and kisses her. And then he leaves.
That night he takes the card, and cuts it up. And then he lays down in bed, and slowly drifts to sleep...
