STAR TREK IMAGINES

Lieutenant Commander Data

"How am I going to tell data?"
I asked Beverly from my spot on a med table
"Hello, love I'm dying in a month because I have a rare heart disease"
I mused Beverly gave me a look and sat in her chair across from me.
"Just speak to him, he will understand just be glad that you work on this starship so I can treat you"
"I hate this, I wanna spend the rest of my life with Data but the rest of my life might be four months I want to get married I want to have a kid I want spend all the time I can with him but.."
I trailed off as Beverly gave me some more details about my treatment. I left only an hour later with some antibiotics I took a few before going to see Data.
"Hey sweetheart, can I talk to you?"
I stood behind him gently rubbing his arm.
"Yes, where would you like to speak?"
Data turned in his chair so I pulled out a chair and sat in front of him
"Here is fine, listen before I say anything else just know I love you more than time could tell" he seemed a little confused.
"Of course"
he grabbed my arm holding my hand.
"I have titheitan disease, Beverly is giving me some treatments she predicts that if she doesn't work fast enough I have four months left"
a tear slid down my cheek and I basically jumped into his arms so we were cuddling.
"I do not know what to say, there is so much we have not done yet"
Data's voice was seemed sad even though he didn't show it.
"You don't have to say anything, when we're together I feel unstoppable"
he snuggled into my neck.
"Can we meet with doctor crusher?"
"Yeah let me get changed first"
Data nodded and finished up working I pulled on a dark hoodie and black leggings trying to be casual
"You look very beautiful Y/n"
I smiled at him taking his arm and we started on our way to the med bay.
"I'm so sorry to bother you again Beverly" when we went back to her office she smiled at us as we sat down. Sort of like parents talking to the schools principal
"So, Y/n.. Data you all know the implications of titheitan disease, with the proper treatment things should take upwards of 5-6 months before we have to move you to a star base for surgery"
Beverly gave a quick synopsis of what was going to happen as we started talking I was listening to as much as possible but I couldn't stop turning to Data watching his facial expressions. We hadn't done a lot but he's so perfect it felt like we were already married
"I'll leave you two alone"
Beverly stopped talking and left the room.
"I should have kept you safe"
Data turned to me and held my hand tight.
"It wasn't something you could protect me from Data"
"I feel as though I have committed an error" Data's yellow eyes kept moving from me to the ground.
"An error? Absolutely Impossible"
I smirked at Data trying to lighten the mood.
"When we met I began to change, everything began to seem brighter, when you smiled during your favorite show I felt what Riker describes as happiness I do not want that happiness to stop but I did not put up enough precautions to keep you safe and well"
Data explained to me he kissed my forehead and I smiled up at him
"Data, that was the biggest error you've made" I noted his look of confusion as adorable
"You didn't need to keep me safe, I got this in the first place because I was doing my job so what if I die in four months or four years or forty years I love you and as long I have you by my side I can do anything"
His confusion settled and he moved his hands around my waist and hugged me tight.
"We can always do anything together"
"Always"
