Our Month (Althea x Shinpachi) [Modern Au]

Part II

As Althea entered the hospital her first instinct was to run towards the lady at the desk. Being completely drenched from the down pour outside, the rain droplets from her hair fall onto the desk which catch the lady's attention instantly.

"Can I help you wettie?"

"I-I'm looking for Shinp-"

Althea was trembling from the rain and started to feel faint. Before she knew it, her body started to shake and her eyes fluttered close.

"DEAR GOD! SHE IS GOING TO PEE HERSELF! SOMEONE HURRY BEFORE SHE INJURES HER NON EXISTENT ASS!"

As Althea's eyes slowly awoke, she felt something stroking her fingers. She knew who it was by how cracked and uncomfortable the fingers were against hers. The owner of the pair of fingers was Gintoki. Gintoki was the leader of the Odd Jobs club. The Odd Jobs club is a club that Gintoki founded with Shinpachi. The club offers classroom cleaning, finding missing pets and items, and many more. The only thing they don't offer is doing homework as the members are too dumb to offer that. Kagura joined the club while she was trying to find refuge from a group of students that she stole food from, and saw Shinpachi. Shinpachi allowed her to take refuge but she had to join the club due to it being in the risk of disbanding from the lack of members. Shinpachi tricked Althea into joining which caused her to almost burn Gintoki into ashes (due to her arson kink) but, over time she started to enjoy the club as she got to spend more time with Shinpachi and she also gained two more friends even though Gintoki made her want to suffocate herself with her non existent ass.

"Hey! Look who's up!"

"Get your crusty hands off of me."

Gintoki quickly retracts his fingers from hers and stiffens his back.

"Yes ma'am. Sorry ma'am."

Althea starts to glare at him but as she started to rise herself from the hospital bed, her head starts to throb making her fall back down.

"Hey, easy there. You had quite the fall back there. The nurse said that the rain caused you to get a fever."

"Oh.." Althea starts say as she lays back down but then bolts back up.

"W-ait wheres Shinpachi?!"

"He.. I'm sorry.. Althea."

Althea's heart starts to race and her pupils start to dilate.

"He's alive, don't listen to that idiot."

It was Tae.

Althea lets out a relived sigh and kicks Gintoki in the face causing him to fall down with his chair.

"Must have been the spices I gave him.." Althea hears Kagura mumble.

"SURGERY?!" Althea asks worriedly.

"He has cancer." Tae quietly mumbles.

The three members apart of Odd Jobs jolt their heads towards Tae with the expressions on their faces written with shock.

"It's stage two. Too."
