Why Cant I get A Break?(BoyxBoy)

Chap 5:

Im not saying our reunion was touchy feely, but I'm also not saying I flipped him off and ran out.

I just sat there, confused. How did he find me? I'm the one looking and all, but he ends up finding me?

Maybe he was just constantly on the move and didn't stay to one place very long.

"Devin!" a guy hissed from outside, "Is it him?"

My 'father' smacked his head and blushed. I snorted and started removing my needles.

"what are you doing?!" Devin, my father hissed. "The nurses will do that."

"D- dad, I've been here since I was a kid, I'm used to this." my throat closed and my mind immediately went to my now only a few months left. "I have bigger issues."

"5 months." he whispered, my head snapped towards him, "I know... it happened to me."

"huh?" now I was confused, if he'd had cancer... He should be dead.

"come on Ethan!" Eric stuck his head inside my room and spotted my father, "Who the hell are you?"

"He's a friend, now what is it Eric?" I asked tiredly, my energy just seemed to drain out of me.

He winced at my tone, I just smiled weakly. Eric always knew when I was tired and in pain.

"I have to ask you something." he blushed a bit. "come on."

"Alright, just give me another second." he nodded and left the room with one last glance at my dad.

"well, dad, I'm happy to finally meet you." I smiled with as much energy I could grant. "But I need to get home."

He nodded, looking a little sad. "hey, don't be sad, let's meet up tomorrow, at the coffee cafe."

Devin nodded quickly and smiled. I opened my arms and stood up, his eyes went misty and he hugged me tightly.

When I left I saw Eric, stiles and Owen all waiting for me. Just like every other day. I grinned and walked to them after signing out.

"dude, is- (smack) hey, ow!" Owen held the back of his head from stile's hit.

"come on, let's get to the car." Eric snorted and turned with the others.

With one last glance back I saw my father hugging a man, maybe he's gay, like me.

When I finally got settled I the car, in the front seat with Eric at the wheel. He turned to me.

"Derek loves you huh." he said bluntly

"why would you think that?" but I couldn't help the small smile on my face.

"All morning he was practically drooling over you!" he exclaimed, I snorted.

"Just don't tell him." I warned, "I don't want tomorrow ruined."

"Wait! Your going on a date with him?!" Eric jumped in his seat. I laughed for a while. Something about this had all them smile for a bit as they watched me laugh.

"Yes, and he's already scared as it is." I warned him, "Don't scare him more."

Eric nodded while stiles grinned evilly and Owen looked a bit jealous. I shook my head at then and leaned back into my seat, wait for the drive home.

When i got home, the boys had decided they'd stay the night. When i heard them tell Eric i snorted because they only wanted to be here because they knew of my date with Derek.

As  soon as i reached the porch step, and tried to climb up, I crumbled to the floor. It took me a second to realize what just happened.

The guys on the other hand had reached me in no time. All flying questions at me and dragging me to my feet.

5 months, it just clicked then,  i have 5 months left to live and its not getting any better, its getting worse. My arms began to shake with uncontrollable fear, and Eric's question finally got me back to reality.

"How long Evan?" His eyes looked pained and Eric looked about to burst into tears. the others went inside both excused themselves saying it was too much for them, i didn't blame them.

"No," i choked out, " I'm not saying."

"God help me Evan, " he turned around and slammed a fist into the house wall, and turned back to me, "I will tell him-"

"No you wont," i cracked a tiny smile and pulled away from the pole that was holding me up. " You don't want him to find out. Then you'll think I'm mad at you but you know i'd forgive you in a heart beat Eric."

His lips trembled dangerously and he opened his mouth to speak but no words came out. Then Derek opened the door and i stared blankly at Eric.

"Whats going on out here? Why was there a slam?" he looked over me quickly and turned to the others and finally to Eric, "Well?"

"Derek, E- Evan h- has..." he stopped and began to cry, "I hate you Evan. I hate you so much." Derek blinked and anger danced dangerously in his eyes but he was confused too, his brother was almost hysteric in front of him.

"Come here." i sighed and opened my arms, and he didn't hesitate to crash into them. "Help me to the kitchen stupid." He nodded from my shoulder but didn't move at all. I couldn't help but chuckle.

"Wait, what was he going to say?" Derek followed close by my side as Eric supported some of my weight. "You have what?

Eric whimpered lightly, "Don't worry about it Derek," i told him with a sad smile. He gave me an angry glare.

 He grumbled something about not letting it go before heading upstairs. Eric worked mutely and got me a small dinner.

"Eric, I- (Cough)" Eric watched me in mid stop of getting me dinner and watched me cough for a while. His grip on the bottle of water made his hand turn white, "I just want you to be happy right now okay."

"What if i want to know how long you have to-" he stopped mid sentence and lowered his head to my shoulder and started shuddering. Even i gave a little shaky breath. he got up quickly though, and set my dinner down in front of me. "I wont let it go, and you'll have to tell Derek too, sometime."

"I know." i sighed and looked down at my dinner, half starving, but i knew i had to pace myself, Eric sat with me for the rest of the night and helped me to my room to finally part and go to his.

I slipped into the shower and tried to wind down but nothing help. So i walked around the house until somehow i ended up standing in front of Eric's bed.

My hands ran through his hair as he slept. My eyes went misty, "You wanted to know Eric, and i cant tell you when your awake. B- but, i have about 5 months left." i whispered to him and kneeled by his bed.

A few seconds later Eric started to toss around, restless. My heart beat rapidly, was he actually awake?

He started to whimper and cry out, "No! No, its not enough Time!" His forehead broke out into a sweat and a tear rolled down his eye.

My heart ached for him, i wanted to tell him to his face so badly. He was my best friend, no my brother and i was keeping a huge secret away from him.

"Hey, Eric wake up. Its okay, come one wake up." a tear rolled down the side of my face and i struggled to control my voice.

He gasped and sat straight up, his breath faltered for a second and he looked around. "Wh- what? Whats wrong?"

"shh, its okay," I hugged him as tight as i could, "It was just a nightmare. Its okay Eric."

He relaxed, only slightly but began to weep again like earlier, "Oh god Ethan, it was horrible. Y- you died and- and--" His words got jumbled by his cries and i couldn't understand him. i didn't want to understand him, i closed my eyes, blood rushed in my ears and i almost couldn't hear his sobbing and i started crying too.

"Its okay Eric, It was just a dream. Every things okay now." I forced my voice to sound normal and only let the tears fall. "It was just a dream..."

But we both knew... it wasn't going to be just a dream later.
