"What?" I say eyes burning with salt.
"I had to tell you guys. I am so sorry I hurt you guys but if I didn't tell you and then I... You know... Di-"
"SHUT UP!" Thing yells tears streaming down his dirty face.
"Thing..." I say
"SHUT UP!!!" Thing yells at me standing up.
"Sit down thing! Don't yell at her! I just needed to tell you. Would you have rather me nor said anything them just died under your noses without an explanation!"
*CRACK
"THING!" I yell as he runs off " are you ok Gray?" I ask on kneeling over his bleeding face.
"Uhg," he moans wiping his nose "I am fine. I am just worried about Thing."
Gray sits up with me and says "it doesn't matter when I die. I will, we all will, but I am going to go soon. Ares, I need you to know I will die very soon and you need to continue on. You need to continue on with what I have taught you and what we have learned together," Gray takes my hands "God has something so bats and amazing planned for you! You just have to grow in him ever stronger. Just fight for everything that is good and holy. I can't do it, so you have to."
My eyes over whelm with tears. Gray stretches out his legs and pats on his lap "rest here, cry if you have to. I don't mind my sweet."
I lay down on grays lap and bawl.
He's going to die. Gray is going to die, no matter what. I don't know what I am even going to do without him. Gray slowly plays with my hair and begins to sing. I turn deeper into his thighs and bawl even harder. Please God take his cancer away.....
