Third person POV:
It was chemo time again unfortunately but this time Killua didnt refuse. He was on stage 3, the second to last stage and he was desperate to win this battle for Gon and for himself. The chemo took for what felt like forerver. By the time they were done, Killua couldnt feel his legs due to being exhausted from the treatment, he was sore and puking uncontrollably. These were all symptoms from the chemo of course but they were still a pain to deal with. Leorio had to carry Killua home with Gon by his side. He looked like a skeleton, pale and you could see the outline of his ribs, he looked lifeless. Just the sight of him made Gon sad. He wanted for Killua to win this more than anything but he didnt want him to suffer anymore. By the time they were home Killua was asleep and had to be hooked up to his heart monitor and just incase, his oxygen tank for extra precausion scenerios. Killua slept in his hospital room that night and even though it was uncomfortable, Gon stayed with him in the tiny crampt room. At 2:30 in the morning Gon was awaken by the sound of whimpering and moans of pain. It was Killua. "Hey Killua. Its okay, im here and im not leaving." Gon tried to calm his lover down. "G-gon what are you doing here, you should sleep while you c-can. I dont w-wanna bother you." Killua chocked out. He was in the most pain he'd ever been. "Kil, not helping you would be the thing to bother me. Do you need anyhting?" Gon asked. "M-medicine and my o-oxygen tank please.." Killua said. Gon gave him exactly that and wanted to head out to give Killua some space but then he heard a quiet voice calling to him. "W-wait, Please s-stay. Please dont Leave me." Killua saod with tears in his eyes from the pain, Gon ended up staying and calmed Killua down by holding him till he fell asleep then soon after he did too with Killua in his arms. He stayed and planned on staying. Killua hadn't been this calm since his diagnosis, over a year ago. He felt safe asleep in the arms of his lover. 'Thank you, thank you Gon.' Killua thought to himself. Peace at last.
