- A l e k s POV -

I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces. I couldn't stay at that office with those xrays up on the board. I needed to get out of there. I needed to go back to the house. I was crying on the way home and I'm crying now as I sit on this stupid couch. 

That bastard has been lying to me for two months. TWO MONTHS! He is my best friend, he's suppose to tell me when he has fucking BRAIN CANCER. He is suppose to open up to me and he's suppose to...I groaned outloud and screamed. 

"DAMNIT." I stood up and was pacing around. James was going to leave me. He was going to die on me. I knew something was wrong, I knew it. I just don't understand why he would keep it from me. I thought he trusted me. He can't just do that to me. 

My phone went off and I looked down. It was from Eddie. I had to rub my eyes to see the screen. 

'Eddie: James is on his way. Are you okay???

James was on his way...why couldn't he just stay there and talk to the guys more? Leave me alone for a little bit. WHY.

I heard the door to our house open and I heard his voice. 

"Aleks?? Where are you?" He walked to where I was and he saw me. He stood there with his hands by his side and I stood there holding my phone. He didn't understand why I was crying so much but then again he didn't know that my feelings for him were deep. Very, deep. 

"Aleks, why did you leave so fast? Why couldn't you sta--" I quickly cut James off.

"You son of a bitch. You should of told me sooner. You should of told me when you came home that night. You didn't. You told me, 'Don't worry, Aleksandr, it's just stress headaches. I will be okay.' But you aren't. You might DIE on me, James. You are going to leave me alone in this world. You aren't allowed to do that! I could've been with you this whole time helping you but you kept it to yourself. FOR TWO MONTHS. I don't understand why you would do that? WHY? Now I don't know whether to slap you in the face for not telling me or to hug the shit out of you because this is happening to you. You did this to me! You fucking did this! Now you are going to leave and I won't get to see you ever again and if you die I just..." I stopped and threw myself onto the couch and covered my face with my hands. I cried, silently. I heard footsteps come closer to me and then warm arms wrap around me and pull me closer. 

- J a m e s POV -

Aleks just yelled at me. I didn't blame him. It was a lot to take in and I just dumped it on him. He was really taking this hard. I think he automatically thought I was going to die. My intentions were to not die and to do the best I can to get rid of this tumor. 

He finished yelling and went back onto the couch. I sighed as I walked over to him and sat down next to him. I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him as close as I could to me. I felt him relax some and he curled into me. He was still crying. 

"Aleksandr, I didn't tell you because I wished to spare everyones feelings. Especially yours because I knew whether it was then or two months from then, you would still act the same. I thought that it would be gone after all the bullshit I've had to go through but..it didn't." I squeezed him and he stopped crying. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. But, Jesus Aleks...I'm not going to die. I'm going to fight this thing and I'm going to live on. I need positive people around me who believe in me. I need you to believe in me. We both need to be strong." I slgihtly pulled away, feeling him grip my shirt. I tilted his head up. "It'll be okay, Aleksandr. I promise." I gave him a small smile and Aleks smiled a little at me. 

"Okay...Okay, I believe in you." He said as he ungripped my shirt and sat up by himself. "I'm sorry for yelling at you it's just hard. I know it's hard for you too, actually it's probably the hardest for you. I'll be there for you." 

I was thankfully he believed in me and he was finally calming down. "Be there for me tomorrow? I have another appointment to talk about different treatment options." I explained and Aleks nodded. 

I was thankful that he was going to be there for me. The guys probably want him to be the one with me anyway. Aleks will be the one whos most invested in this, especially by how he reacted. The bad thing about this situation is that I promised something that I wasn't sure I could keep. I don't know if I'm going to get through this and I don't know if I'm going to live on. All I knew is that I needed to be positive and I can't be negative. For Aleks sake. I just hope I get through this and I don't have to break that promise.
