None of his friends knew, Dave had found out quite a while ago that his body was basically breaking down, he'd gone to the hospital a few months ago, as ha had gotten into a fight ages before his visit, and the bruises and cuts refused to heal, not to mention the general tiredness and a large amount of time spent sleeping. He had gone up to the hospital with his concerns about the bruises on his face and body that haven't gone down, leading to many test to be taken and the doctor to reach a diagnosis. Daves blood was riddled with cancer, leukemia. He was given a life limit of six months and a choice on whether to start the treatment, he remained indecisive, as chances of getting better from this weren't in his favor. He'd locked himself in his room not messageing anybody. His brother letting him mope in there, as he had much reason to. Until a little nubby horned troll came around unaware of Dave's condition he knocked on the door harder "open up fucker I know your in there" dave stayed quiet wrapped in a blanket wereing an oversized sweatshirt and black skinny jeans his hair was a mess and his snshades were on his bed side table, karkat knocked again "if you don't open this damn door, strider in 10 seconds I will break down this door!" He stayed silent, he saw no point his room was a mess, there were cracks in the plaster on the wall and hole where Dave punched it, karkat huffed and opened Dave's door slowly he walked in sitting next to him criss cross "Dave..are you ok..?"he knew something was wrong but desired to ask anyways. Dave didn't respond his hood was pulled over his head and large black bags under his eyes"come on Dave you need to get up and fucking eat something".
"No, get out and leave me alone" he said in an annoyed tone flipping over do his back was to karkat. He didn't see and point in eating , he glanced down at an official looking document on the side of his bed, karkat looked around curiously until his eyes fell upon the document he started reading it, Dave's eye widened he snatched his from karkat he only got to look at the first page witch just had Dave's birthday, sex, weight, height etc.
"Dave what the fuck is going on and don't lie to or so help me I will-"
"It's nothing" Dave cut him off
"The fuck it isn't" he huffed and looked back at Dave" that's it get your good for nothing ass off this bed and go live your fucking life you look like your dieing" Dave chuckled some at his comment
"You have no Idea" he curled into a ball
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean" Dave huffed and shrugged.
"Whatever,but you need to get up. Now." he stood up going over to Dave's closet grabbing a random shirt and throwing it at him"change your damn shirt it smells like death" Dave rolled his eyes standing up and taking off his shirt, karkat tryed not to stair but of course failed.
D
ave smirked and karkat blushed more growling some "shut up fucker!"he folded his arms.
"Whatever kitkat"he finished getting changed and karkat grabed his arm draging him out of the room.
