Incoming call from: Pen<33
__________
Ricky froze seeing the call come through, almost dropping his phone.
He couldn't call her right now; he was in the hospital with his parents. he'd been there more than usual recently. The nurses were nice. Okay, maybe he hadn't thought this whole thing through.
He declined the call. Or atleast the thought he did, until he saw his excited best friend on the other end of the screen, smiling at him so brightly it could light up a room.
"hey ricky!!" They beamed, happy to see their friend.
they had their AAC device already prepared, their loving message of professing love, but he couldn't say that right now.
he quickly deleted it, putting in a quick 'hi' that played for them
"are you gonna keep your phone at the ceiling or am i gonna finally be able to see your beautiful face?"
Ricky smiled and blushed, quickly pointing the camera to his face.
"...where are you?? That doesn't look like your house. Or atleast not where you've showed me."
"im at my grandparents" the robotic voice read.
"I thought they were dead" they asked, concerned
"...."
"Ricky where are you?" They were panicking clearly now.
"hospital." The voice read yet again.
the line went silent for a minute.
"what are you doing there..?" Penny broke the silence, scared still.
Ricky just typed in their chat.
Penny deserved the truth. if he was gonna ask them out especially, but they did no matter what.
"I have a disease. Its why i can't talk, and my knees buckled when i was 6. i use a wheelchair and crutches. there."
Ofcourse, ricky avoided mentioning his expected lifespan.
Penny looked shocked, almost about to cry. They wanted to hug him desperately, just hold him close in the protection of their arms.
"ricky, im so sorry.."
"its fine"
"no its not! i mean sure it might seem fine to you but my god thats horrible!"
Ricky types again.
"do you hate me because of my disability?"
Penny panicked. "NO! ofcourse not!! Im just worried for you.."
"can we talk about something else?"
"yeah.. yeah ofcourse. whatever you want."
"are you gonna treat me different now? I knew i shouldn't have told you, im sorry."
"No ricky, don't apologise im sorry, i'll just.. treat you the same as i usually have."
"okay.. hey pen, can i ask you a question?"
"no."
ricky just stared at them with the biggest "what the fuck" look.
"Kidding! go on." They continued.
Ricky stopped typing in their chat and went back to his AAC device.
"i was wondering if you.. uh.. wanted to be my partner...?"
"......what."
Ricky felt his arms shaking, panicking.
"like.. romantic partner..?" Penny asked, just as nervous as ricky.
Ricky just nodded slightly as Penny sat there processing.
"Yes."
"really?" the robotic voice read.
They nodded.
