Shu's POV
"Shu! Shu!" That was what I heard as I opened my eyes. I looked around the furniture, realizing I'm on a hospital bed. As I turned my head, I saw a blonde-haired man beside me.
"L-Luca? What happened? Why am I here?" I asked.
"You...you passed out..." Luca answered, looking worried at me. "Your heart disease is getting worse..."
"Oh. I see... Where are the others?"
"They're outside. I should call them-"
"Sure!"
As soon as I finished my sentence, Luca nodded and went out, calling the rest of the Luxiem members. It wasn't long after he returned with the rest behind him.
"SHU!" Mysta screamed, tears in his eyes. "OH MY GOD, SHU- I WAS SO FUCKING WORRIED!"
"Hey, Mysta! Don't cry- I'm okay! See?" I said, not knowing how to comfort the crybaby.
"What do you mean okay?! You literally fucking passed out during class! We were so worried that we ended up taking you to the hospital!" Ike said with tears and anger. I got scared a little, but I understood why he was like that. So... I stayed quiet.
Suddenly, everyone went quiet. The atmosphere changed. Everyone is trying to calm down while I'm watching them calm down. I felt guilty as I made everyone worried, but I couldn't do anything about it. It took a while for everyone to calm down, but once they did, Vox spoke up.
"Aren't you worried about how many days you have left?"
I won't lie. The question did shock me a little. It took me a while to process it, but I still answered him.
"Hmm, I guess."
"Are you scared, though?" Ike asked curiously. Though, he looks more scared than I am, which is funny.
"Hmm, not really."
"WHAT?" All of them screamed, except Luca.
"Yeah. I mean, I am going to die sooner or later. I don't think there's any need to be scared of death too."
"But- You- We-" Mysta stuttered.
"I know you guys are scared that I'm going to die, but that's bound to happen. I'm just scared that life won't be nice enough for us to hang out a little longer."
"Well, if you put it that way... I guess." Mysta said while everyone nodded in agreement.
"To be honest, you guys shouldn't worry so much. I mean, Shu is still here, alive. We should be thinking about how to make these last memories with him a good one before he dies y'know?" Luca said, trying to cheer everyone up.
"You know what, you're right!" Vox said, "We shouldn't be this sad when Shu is still here!"
Everyone started agreeing and cheering as I watched them being chaotic. We all cheered, laughed and had fun. It soon got dark, and everyone was about to leave.
"Oh, yeah! Almost forgot to give you something." Mysta said as he searched through his bag. He then took out a container and gave it to me. "Here you go, bro."
"What's this?"
"Oh! This is-" As Vox was about to answer, Luca suddenly called him off...
"DEEZ NUTS!"
Vox stared at Luca, annoyed at the sudden joke.
"Oh my god- LUCA! Can't we have a moment without dirty jokes, please?"
"HAHAHAHA sorry sorry. I couldn't help it!" Luca said, laughing.
I laughed silently, watching the chaos grow as Mysta continued Luca's joke. The joke soon got worse since Vox started to join in. Leaving Ike annoyed. Well, it is them. This is Luxiem. Someone who likes Deez Nuts jokes while two unhinged men make it worse, making the wholesome one uncomfortable.
"ANYWAYS, as I was saying... before I was interrupted by a golden retriever. That's chocolate cake. We decided to give you in case you get hungry." Vox said.
"Aw, thanks, guys!"
"You're welcome! Now we really gotta go! It's getting SUPER late! We'll see you tomorrow, though." Ike said, looking at the time.
"Alright, stay safe."
All of them waved, leaving the hospital room. As I was about to lie down and rest, I saw Luca still there.
"You're not leaving?" I asked.
"I mean, I am, but I just wanna check on you before I go."
"I'm okay. You don't need to worry."
"Mhm, I know. But are you going to be okay here? It's your first day at the hospital after all."
"Yeah! I'll be fine!"
"Alright, call me if you need anything. Cya Shubert!"
"Okeyyyyyy! Cya!"
As the conversation ended, I stared at Luca walking out the door, and leaving the room. I sighed and lay down, closing my eyes to rest. I muttered to myself, "Welcome, hospital life."
