Harry looked at the cast around his arm and sighed.
"Of course you gotta break your arm at the end of Summer... way to go Hook." he mumbled to himself and he had to wait for this nurse to get the papers done for him to leave since he now was registered to the systems of the Auradonian hospital.
"No... no... no..." a familiar voice panted and Harry turned to see Ben emerge from a room with his hands on his temples, panick all over his face...
"Ben...?" Harry mumbled as he walked over to the king of his heart-- eh... of Auradon.
"Harry-? What are you doing here-?" Ben asked with a liberating breathing.
"I could ask you the same mate... Take it easy..." Harry said calmly as he tried to make sure Ben started breathing normally again."Are you okay...?" Harry tried after a moment.
"No... By far... Definitely not..." Ben said and panick filled his face again.
"What is going on?"
"Did you ever have a moment in your life where... Where someone tells you something... and you feel like your world is crumbling down and being stepped onto the ashes?"
"...no?"
"Why were you here in the hospital anyway?" Ben asked and Harry nodded to the cast around his arm.
"Broke my arm and got this heavy shit around it. What's your excuse?"
"...I just found out that I have lungcancer." Ben mumbled softly as if he just realised it and Harry's jaw dropped.
"You what...?"
"I..." Ben rushed a hand through his hair and he looked at Harry with a broken expression.
"I... I have lungcancer... Fuck! I gotta be the king of Auradon, I can't be stuck in a damn hospital. Hell, with Mal and the upcoming wedding we've been planning and... I don't know what to do..." Ben said as tears streamed down his cheeks.
"Hey... take it easy... Forget everything for a moment... Think about yourself, about your health. You gotta get onto the treatments as soon as possible... you know just as good as me that lungcancer is one of the most dangerous ones."
"I know but-"
"Ben." Harry said with a stern voice and Ben looked him right in the eyes.
"Go home. Tell your parents and tell Mal. They need to know."
"Promise me you won't say a thing."
"I won't. But then you gotta tell them yourself."
Ben nodded and he looked at Harry.
"...how did you break your arm anyway?"
"Carlos and Gil were skateboarding and Gil made me try."
Ben chuckled a little and Harry glared at me.
"That's not funny." he cussed and Ben looked at the red cast.
"You should take a black marker with you to school tomorrow."
"Why?"
"It's normal when someone breaks a bone that people-friends-family write their names on it with a small thing to make you feel better."
"That explains why that nurse handed me this." Harry said as he held up a black marker.
"May I?" Ben asked and Harry nodded as Ben took the marker.
'Ben (: ' was now written on the cast and Harry chuckled.
"Your smiley looks weird."
"But it made you chuckle so it works."
They both laughed and Harry looked at Ben.
"I mean it... go home and tell your parents and Mal."
"...I will. I'll see you tomorrow at school... although there is a chance I won't tell them today."
"Tell them this week at least. You gotta get on the treatments as soon as possible and if you start-"
"I gotta stay 6 weeks in the hospital, I know."
"See ya tomorrow." Harry said and he glanced at his cast, smiling as he saw Ben's horrible handwriting.
"See you tomorrow." Ben said with half a smile and they went separate ways.
