Everything got hard. Colby felt it. The fatigue. The dizziness. The headaches. The lack of motivation. The lack of eating. He couldnt even talk anymore. His breath sounded like someone who had been smoking eighty years. He couldnt even properly tell sam he loved him. He was relieved his time would come to an end soon. But he also dreaded it. He dreaded leaving sam. And his family. But everyday seemed to blend together in one big blur. Sam had no concept of time anymore. He barely slept. And when he did it was when colby was spending time with his mom and dad and brother alone. Sam didn't want colby to die when he wasn't around. He told his teachers he would be mia for a bit due to a very recent cancer patient in his family. They accepted and wished him well. He did school from home but never in school. Corey would hand in his hard copy papers for him. sam and colby grew inseparable. There were a category of days for colby.
1. Painful but bearable. Friends can come over and hang out. Approved by sam though. As always.
2. Painful. Only jake jo and elton can come over. And family. Depending. Pending approval of sam. As per usual.
3. Unbearable pain. Only sam. No family. Dark rooms. Silence. Always approved by sam.
Soon the days became a blurred line of 2 and 3. But there was an occasional 1 day sometimes. Today was a two. So gage and jo came over. they played a bored game. Monopoly to be exact. they put on some music and kept only a candle nearby due to colby's headache. they had fun. Sam ended up winning with colby a close second and the last two lost causes as sam and colby ran them bankrupt. They laid down together and watched a movie. Colby was drifting in and out of sleep. He began to shiver so sam pulled a blanket over him. Jo stayed at aryias, she practically lived there now due to the situation at hand, and gage went home. Sam carried colby's very slim and light body upstairs and they both slept peacefully. The next day was a one day. Colby woke up before sam and had an idea. A good one. But a horrible one. He pulled out his notebook. He flipped the back pages and started writing. About everything. Until sam woke up. He flipped to a different page and continued his drawing he started on a different one day.
Sam "today is a one."
Colby nodded. Sam sat up and kissed colby. Colby melted into it dropping his pencil and kissing back. Sam pulled away and leaned his head on colby's.
Colby "s-s-s-po-ot"
Sam smiled and chuckled making colby smile.
Sam "okay."
They got ready and went to their spot. Cuddling and watching the clouds disperse and reform and move. It was relaxing. they went home around lunch time and asked jake and tara to come over for lunch. Sam made grilled cheese and soup. Requested by colby. They all ate and laughed. Colby soon started to drift into a two so the pair went home and sam and colby watched a movie in their bed. Once sam had accidentally fallen asleep colby started writing again. A few tears slipping down his cheeks as he wrote. He put it away and soon let sleep overtake him as the credits rolled on the screen playing music which lulled him to sleep. He dreamed about sam. Sam dreamed about colby. Everything was okay. But in their dreams. In reality. Everything was breaking and falling apart miserably.
