"Ricky...? You alright there..?" Noel asked as he peeked into the room and saw the other dark-haired male sniffling, lying in bed with one of his cats. Noel sighed as he sat down on the bed, his heart-shattering at the sight.

"Oh, Ricky...what happened..?" the romantic male asked his lover, watching as he shook his head in response before signing.

'Don't want to talk about it.'

"Oh...alright. Is there anything you'd like me to do, maybe get you something to drink or-"

'NO! Just...stay with me, please?' Richard signed instantly, making Noel smile gently as he sat down, pulling the other male close to him and resting his head on his shoulder, stroking his hair. "That's alright...I'll stay right here, don't worry.." he spoke, which got Ricky to smile softly as he gave a small, quick peck to his beloved's cheek, hugging him almost instantly after.

It was probably an hour or two of silence, with the occasional meowing of the cat, before a small noise escaped Ricky's throat. Sure, Ricky couldn't speak, didn't mean he couldn't make any noise though, but it did hurt his throat a lot, so when he made the occasional sound he'd wince. "M-Mhn..." This got Noel to jump a bit, gently cupping Ricky's face. "Try to not make any noise, hun. Your throat's already hurting enough from humming, you'll only hurt worse if you make any more sound..." the male gently reminded, Ricky, nodding at the sweet reminder.

'Yeah, I know...thanks..' Ricky would sign, Noel smiling sweetly and kissing him just as gently. Ricky knew very well that Noel was always happy to help, as well as to know his silent lover appreciated the gesture. And he did! Very much so, though.....with how often Noel came to help him, he wanted to say it. Not in sign, but say it....although he could never do that, his disease wouldn't allow that to happen, he could only dream of the day he could just say...

Thanks...

–Sometime after the Cyclone Roller Coaster Disaster, in a dilapidated warehouse...–

"If I had drug, I would take all of them myself and never share any of them with you." Ricky listened to Mischa snap, a blank expression on his face, only with utter shock and fear in his eyes being present as he looked around.

"Where are we??" Noel asked, looking around. And at that, an unexpected thing happened something...being said from behind the rest of the choir, that nobody expected.

"The twilight zone." Ricky said nervously, seems he had the same reaction as everyone else internally.

"HOLY SHIT, YOU CAN TALK!" Ricky's lover remarked, looking back at Richard with surprise. This, this knowledge got Ricky to smile a bit... a decent amount, looking back at the other.

"Cool, huh? Check this out, I can even do this." Ricky remarked, slipping his arms out of his crutches...but not falling over as expected. This managed to earn a gasp out of Noel, Ricky smiling more as he slipped his arms back into the arm holes of his mobility aids. "I know right? Badass." He commented- everyone starting with their bickering again.

So, at this moment, he rested his head on the romantic male's shoulder. "Hey...I just wanted to tell you...thanks, for everything..." Ricky thanked. At this, Noel blushed a little, yet chuckled sweetly and started to litter gentle kisses on the other male's face. "Of course...you're welcome. I'm always happy to be there for you, my shooting star...~" Noel would gently coo to the other. This made Richard chuckle a little with a blush present across his cheeks, kissing him softly before pulling away.

"Same for you, Honey-Button-Jazz...~"
