Deadline by Chris Crutcher

At the beginning of his senior year, during a routine physical, Ben Wolf discovers that he has leukemia. Ben decides to tell no one; he want his last year to be as "normal" as possible. Somewhere deep inside, Ben has always known that he would never escape high school and Trout, Idaho, population 943. This twist of fate seems not exactly fair, but it feels right.
Only, not telling the truth is the same as lying. And how to you lie to your friends, and to your parents, and to your brother Cody, and to the gorgeous Dallas Suzuki? The short answer? You don't. But it takes Ben almost a year to figure out that truth. And what a year it is.
