It had been 4 days since atsumu confessed that he had stage 2 pancreatic cancer and Kiyoomi hadn't gone to any of the practices back at the club. But everyday, when atsumu was awake, they would start sweet little conversations and sakusa would comfort him. But it was on a chilly Saturday afternoon that an unknown number called Kiyoomi whilst he was eating lunch.

???
- Hey it's osamu, atsumu's brother? I was wondering if you could maybe take care of him just for the weekend? I'm going out with some friends ya see. He really likes you and insisted that it had to be you that took care of him since you know and everything.

Sakusa on phone line
- Uh hi sure. What time do you want me to come over?

Osamu on phone line
- About 1ish? I left all of the pills and medicines on the counter with instructions and the snacks are in the pantry behind the refrigerator

Sakusa on phone line
- Okay I'll get dressed and come in a bit

Osamu on phone line
- Thanks I won't be home when you get here but you know what to do. Appreciate it.

The call ended and Kiyoomi put on a coat over his sweats and pulled the jangling keys to his car out of his ripped pocket. He drove to osamu's and atsumu's place quickly and knocked on the door.

The blonde answered whilst looking down at the floor and squinted when he looked up at Kiyoomi. He was so so tired and could barely walk. This must have been one of his bad days. "*yawn* oh hi omi. Samu said ya were coming over."

"Yeah. Can I come in?"

A weak smile formed on atsumu's lips as he hobbled back to the living room and collapsed on the couch. "Not feeling too great today then?"

"Mm mm. I'm very tired and my stomach really hurts. It's nice yer here though."

"Yeah? Sorry tsumu."

Sakusa walked into the kitchen and his eyes widened when he say the amount of pills atsumu had to take in one day. In each plastic box there were 3-4 big pills for every two hours. He scanned the notes that osamu had left and these were pretty much what they all said.

- Give him 4 every two hours
- Thanks again Kiyoomi :)
- Spare clothes in laundry if you didn't bring your own
- Guest bedroom is down the hall and to your left

Then all of a sudden he heard huge belching and gagging noises coming from the bathroom and he flew on his feet to see if he was okay. "Atsu. You alright?"

Atsumu whimpered as he turned on the tap and tried his hardest to clean up the mess he'd made. "Go in the living room and get comfy. I'll clean this up don't worry."

Atsumu forced a smile even though smiling was the last thing he wanted to do in that moment of time. He limped to the living room with the help of sakusa's arm around his waist. But after he made sure atsumu was okay, he gave him a spare bucket he found in the cupboard under the sink, incase he threw up again, and headed back to the bathroom to clean up.

After about 20 minutes of scrubbing, he removed his shoes and put his bag down and joined atsumu in the living room. He awkwardly sat next to Miya who was shivering like he was in -10 degree temps.

Kiyoomi sighed and got up to go to the guest bedroom. He found about 4 blankets and some mittens in the cupboard and ran straight back into the living room to find the blonde trying to get comfortable and by the looks of it, failing mightly.

"Come on dummy. You gotta stay warm okay?"

Sakusa gently laid the blanket over the quaking boy and felt his forehead with his hand. He was burning up? "Atsu are you feeling cold or hot?"

"C-cold"

"Shit." sakusa said before pulling the blanket back down to his ankles and wetting a piece of cloth under the cold tap. "O-omi that's cold..."

"I know I'm sorry. You wanna watch something?"

"Yes please." He said and layed underneath Kiyoomi's arm unexpectedly. Sakusa turned the TV on, a large blush all over his face. He put some trashy series that atsumu said he loved and let him to it. "Atsu? Are you hungry?" but when he looked to see the boy, he was fast asleep.

But atsumu couldn't look any more uncomfortable, so Kiyoomi scooped him up into his arms and carried him, bridal style to his bedroom. He cautiously laid the weak boy down and dragged the duvet over him.

Sakusa didn't want to leave atsumu alone so he found a chair in his room and sat on his phone whilst the blonde slept. But then he could hear heavy breathing and sniffling and you could both hear and see his chest shudder. Kiyoomi got up and bent down to his side. Atsumu was crying. "Tsumu what's wrong."

"I-It really hurts omi."

"I know, I know. And I'm so sorry. You've got to have some meds in about 10 minutes? We could talk, or watch TV, you could sleep again if you like-"

"C-can we talk omi omi?"

"Yeah. What do you want to talk about?"

"Ya seem different like this. Yer all soft. Not like other times."

"Tch. You want me to be mean?"

"No no I was just saying. I like it."

"I- alright weirdo. Get some rest mkay?"

"Okay omi."

"I'll wake you up for your meds Bumblebee Boy."
