troye woke up from his comatose, his heart beating against his chest rapidly. jacob laid with his head resting on the side of troye's hospital bed, looking unlike himself.
why didn't i die? troye thinks to himself. he wondered if this was all a dream and he didn't have a terminal illness. but when he felt the burning of his lungs he knew this wasn't a dream.
"t-troye? babe, fuck i'm sorry," jacob cries when he notices the boy was awake. "i thought you were going to leave me," he cries harder.
troye feels his throat tighten, and he reaches out his hand, wiping away the tears falling down jacob's cheeks.
"don't cry. i'm here for now,"
jacob doesn't stop crying though, "y-you're s-still going to l-leave me. we just got lucky," he begins to heave for air, his arms holding tightly onto his body as he shook with sobs.
"i'll never leave you, i'll always be here," troye places a hand on jacob's chest, he could feel his heart pounding against his hand, which caused his own to skip a beat and beat as fast as jacob's was.
"i know. but you won't be alive," he mumbles staring down at troye's hand on his chest.
"i have..." he pauses waiting for jacob to answer because he had not been informed in how long he had now.
"6 months, maybe less,"
"then lets fall in love, be stupid teens and forget one of us has a terminal disease," troye says a hopefulness in his voice. he hoped to have more time with jacob, more time than he was getting but of course we don't get every little thing we want.
"i love you," jacob whispers kissing his fingers. "my beautiful boy," he grins kissing his fingers again.
my beautiful boy. that made troye smile.
"call me beautiful again," troye grins up at him.
"beautiful,"
_______
a different ending if troye would've lived.
