Tk had gone early to get chemotherapy before his shift Carlos was off and he insisted that he came with Tk for support

" alright we should have you out of here by 12:00 just call us if you need anything okay ?" The nurse said " thank you ." Tk said before she left

"Carlos could tell to was tired he looked pale and he looked like he was going to be sick " you can take a nap you don't have to stay up because im here ." Carlos said rubbing tks handb

"My head is pounding -" Tk said looking carlos
" did you want me to call captain vega ?" Carlos asked "no - I'll be fine by then." Tk breathed out

Tk wasn't fine he was worn out he had a hard time catching his breath and captain beta noticed although Tk tried to do extra workTk sat in the bunk room catching his breath when Tommy walked in " you've been quite the busy bee today ." Tommy said sitting down next to Tk

Tk let out a little laugh " Tk.. I think it's time that maybe you take leave.."Tommy said looking at Tk " did I do something wrong ?" Tk asked " no sweetheart -" Tommy said " your pushing yourself to hard your body is going through so much right now and you need to it rest ." Tommy said

"I don't wanna leave.." Tk said softly " what if I don't come back -" Tk said biting his bottom lip " you will because your strong you just gotta have faith ." Tommy said " you'll always have a place on my team ." Tommy said " but as your captain and your friend you need to go home and rest ." Tommy said

They laid in bed after their day carlos had came home from his shift and comforted Tk he knew how much it hurt Tk to leave work because of how much he loved helping people

"On the bright side you get to spend more time with your handsome fiancé ." Carlos teased as Tk gave him a smile " there it is that's what I missed so much ." Carlos said kissing Tk's lips " your smile could light up a room ." Carlos said " your just saying that ." Tk said playing with Carlos's fingers "it's true I'm a man a truth ." Carlos smirked

Not long later they both fell asleep chemo was kicking Tk's but he was always throwing up could barley keep food down let along eat it at all he always looked pale and nauseous Carlos had gotten up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom when he came back he noticed that Tk was curled in a ball shivering despite the comforter on top of him along with his hoodie and sweatpants

Tk's had temperature regulation problems since he got hypothermia out on the ice when he risked his own life to save that little boys life which if you gave Tk the choice he would do it all over again but he never was this cold

Carlos grabbed another blanket from thee edge of the bed pulling it up on Tk tucking it softly around his figure he looked peaceful Carlos ran his fingers through Tk's hair but when clumps came out in his hand he didn't know what to do he knew this was going to happen its not like he really cared he was attracted to Tk and not just for his hair

He knew they were coming up on the two week mark which is when the doctor said things will get worse Carlos threw the clump in the trash before kissing Tk's forehead making sure that Tk had the most covers

When Tk woke up he ran his fingers through his hair but when clumps fell out he realized as much as he tried to hide it he was a cancer patient this was just something that he would have to live with he got out of bed heading to the bedroom door opening it "hey ." Carlos smiled from the kitchen "do you want to cut it for me ?" Tk said showing Carlos his hand

Tk sat on a stool in the bathroom "you sure your okay with this ?" Carlos asked " yeah I'm pretty tired of hair falling down my back while I'm sleeping ." Tk said with a small laugh Carlos turned the reason on starting with the side of Tk's head working his way around when he was done Tk looked at Carlos "how do I look ." Tk said " amazing ." Carlos said kissing Tk's head " so soft ." Carlos teased " shut up !" Tk said " you love me ." Carlos said

Tk got a beanie out of his drawer putting it on he was a cancer patient but that didn't mean he always had to be he just had to fight
