Athiss slowly rolled over, as he did his head hit something plump and soft. Taking a deep breath he was worried that some random person had climbed into his bed, yet again. It's why he hated hospitals. Even if it was one that he ran. The crazies still came out in droves when they thought you were hot, sexy, good looking or whatever else their imagination could conjure up.

But to himself he was just average. He wasn't good looking at all he was just like any other guy walking down the street. He had a face, two eyes, a mouth, a chin, ten fingers, ten toes two hands and two feet. He was nothing special.

Timidly opening his eyes Athiss quickly moved to the other side of the small bed as he took in the sleeping woman who seemed to be so peaceful and uncaring. Just as he went to reach across the bed to shake the woman he heard: "Shake me and I'll bite you."

Quickly blinking his eyes Athiss slowly allowed his eyes to take in the woman once more. As he did his eyes widened. He didn't understand why she was here. She should be with her family and not with him.

After all she should be tucked in a bed with Sammy, basking in her love and warmth. Not here in a place so cold and lonely that it made your heart clam up. She really shouldn't be stuck here between these four walls. She spent enough time at places like this, getting tested.

It made his heart hurt thinking about what she had to go through, just to be sitting here alive. And he knew that her battle wasn't over yet. There will come a time when his best friend, his anchor was no longer here.

He needed her more than she would ever know. Hell, if he could he would beg her to get better. Beg her to fight this. But he knew that this was a losing battle. One that no matter how much they screamed and cried, she would lose. This just wasn't something that she could beat.

Athiss slowly ran his tongue over his bottom lip thinking about what he needed to say but before he could get anything out he heard: "How long has this shit with your fucking mother been going on?"

Looking at her with horror filled eyes, Athiss wanted to lie, wanted to tell her that nothing was going on that she was imagining it. But the look that she was giving him stopped those words from escaping his lips.

Because the way she was looking at him, he knew that she knew. Slowly running his hands through his hair, he sighed. He tried to remember what had happened the night before. But for the life of him he couldn't.

Just as he went to speak he heard her voice break the quiet. "Atty, Tell me please. We used to tell each other everything. Just because I'm sick doesn't mean that you can't tell me Atty. I love you. I will always be here for you. Even when you think that you are alone, I have always been there. Please Atty, don't leave me here worrying for you. If there's something bugging you just tell me Please Atty I just-" But before she could finish Athiss launched himself across the bed pulling her into his arms.

He didn't want her to worry for him. She had enough on her plate as it was. But here he was making her worry. Slowly Pulling her against him he whispered: "It's been going on for about two and half years now Cheryl. Every time she gets a chance she puts me down tells me that I am a waste of space. That no one can or will love me. And that is the reason why he left me. I am just eye candy, nothing else. I don't deserve love of any kind Cher bear, if my own flesh and blood can't love me for who I am, why would someone who isn't even try to love me?"
