(TW: Blood)

This IS angst

As I collapsed in one of the halls in the studio, I coughed. Out from my throat came blood covered flower petals. Thankfully, a good friend of mine, Thomas Connor was walking with me.

"[Y/N], was that another flower?" Tom asked, knealing next to me.

I only nodded, for if I spoke, it'd happen again. Tom took me to the infirmary, I just hoped Joey wouldn't dock my pay. The woman, who was technically a nurse, asked why we were here. I opened my mouth to speak, and I coughed again, blood covering my hand.

"Oh, dear..." The 'nurse' spoke.

Last time I was here, I was told I was gonna die because I loved someone. It wasn't a simple crush, no, I wouldn't have what people called "Hanahaki" if it was. I knew who I was in love with, it was Norman Polk, one of my co-workers. Tom knew too, only because of Allison, though. Tom suggested telling Norman, but Allison told him otherwise. You could get surgery, but there was a small chance of survival, and you'd lose all feelings for the person. I'm sure i'd die either way, so it's just not worth it. I will die in love with Norman Polk, and that's final. I felt my throat fill once again at the thought of him. The bloodied petals and a few full flowers fly out of my mouth as I choked.

"[Y/N]. We're telling Norman." Tom allowed no protests of his statement.

Next thing I knew, Norman was standing next to the cot I sat on, talking to Tom. He then turned to me, grabbing my hand.

"I- I'm sorry, [Y/N]." Norman spoke softly.

"It's-" I coughed into my unoccupied hand, "Okay." I rasped, I could barely breathe. "I love you." I felt tears slip from my eyes, as I gave Norman my best smile. I feel bad I couldn't hear what he said next.

-End-

I was in the mood to finish this oneshot (That's been in the works for about 2-3 months now.) Anyway, thanks for reading. Derpy out. -Sept. 8th 2020
