Title: Let Me Love You Longer
Summary: Nerd gets cancer
Disclaimer: I don;'t own any of the characters and beta by the wonderful ladydiskette
Critic and friends were at the waiting room one day in Philadelphia, minus Ask That Guy of course. He would rather be off butchering hookers and such. They were all in a somber mood as they didn’t know what was causing the Nerd to get sick. He had been in the hospital undergoing many tests for the past day now.
Chick was laying into the Critic’s side as Linkara was sitting on the other side of the room, reading a comic. Insano and Spoony were on the chairs adjacent to them squabbling about something stupid. Marzgurl and Liz were sitting across, sympathically telling stories about their own family members going into the hospital not knowing what was wrong with them.
The Nerd was admitted a day before, but the signs started a few days earlier. The Nerd was always looking forward to shooting for his review show, but lately he had been feeling weird lately. He felt more tired than usual and would immediately go up to his bedroom after he was done shooting. He would also get dizzy spells every now and then and it would become more frequent with every passing day. He would shrug it off as nothing, maybe he wasn’t getting enough sleep. That can’t be it though, he was already taking naps in between shootings now.
“You gotta go get this checked out Nerd..”
It was his twin brother, Board James. They were both playing some NES games in the basement when the Nerd started holding his head in pain.
“It’s just a headache, nothing major.” Nerd replied.
Board James had become increasingly worried over the two weeks since this had started.
“Nothing major?! You take how many naps now, two a day and you had been vomiting more than usual...”
“I fucking told you I just ate too much ok? Stop your worrying, I’m completely fine,” Nerd explained, as Board James scoffed.
“Yeah right, I’ve seen you eat and it takes more than that to get you to puke. Seriously I think you need to go to a doctor.”
The Nerd stayed silent, focusing on the screen as they both went back to playing. The Nerd had always be stubborn when it came to his health, saying its nothing, it’ll pass or thinking it just a over exaggeration.
It was when a couple of weeks later when the big crossover special was being filmed, that everybody had a feeling there was something wrong. The Nerd and Critic were in the middle of their scene, a fight as usual, when the Nerd started feeling lightheaded and dizzy.
“Nerd, not that I fucking care but, are you alright?” Critic asked, as usual keeping his feelings for the Nerd deep inside.
“Yeah I’m fine..let’s start over,” Nerd said, waving it off.
“Are you sure? You don’t look fine...”
“I told you fuckshit I’m....” The Nerd didn’t finished his sentence as he stumbled a bit before he blacked out and fainted. The Critic had rushed up and caught him as everyone else rushed up.
“Someone call 911!” Critic yelled, a second afterwards.
It had been six hours since they all arrived at the hospital. Board James arrived about two hours after they did, having gone to a Warhammer tournament. He was standing by the door leading to the hallway. He was currently feeling stupid that he didn’t convinced his brother soon enough to go to the doctors.
A few minutes later, a dark-haired doctor came into the waiting room and had ushered Board James out, as he was the only relative of the Nerd that was present.
Everyone waited anxiously as the minutes passed. About 20 minutes had gone by before Board James came back, a somber and depressing look on his face, everyone in the room was watching as he walked over and sat down next to the Chick.
“So..uh...whats wrong with the Nerd?” Linkara awkwardly asked, as Board James looked down onto the floor.
Board James then slowly looked up and scanned the room,
“The doc said he had cancer.”
