Jack's P.O.V.

I woke up drowsily, a headache pounding against my skull. I stood up, a wave of dizziness crashing over me. I stumbled, falling over, a tiny cry of pain escaping my mouth. I rubbed my head and balanced against my wall, walking into the bathroom. I was absolutely freezing. As I entered the bathroom, I looked in the mirror. I was paler than usual, which is saying a lot. Dark circles surrounded my eyes, like terribly done eye makeup. I brushed my teeth and ran a comb through my hair a few times. I went to go down the stairs, accept I tripped and tumbled down the flight of stairs.

" SHIT!" I yelped, pushing myself off the ground.

My mom looked up from her cooking and glared.

" Séan!" she scolded, " No cursing around your brother."

She gestured towards my younger brother, who was currently a wolf. Since he had learned to control his form, he was obsessed with it. She looked up for her cooking, and her hand slammed over her mouth.

" SÈAN! YOUR... YOUR... YOUR FACE!" she exclaimed.

" Wha..."

Last time I checked, my face was just really pale. I took out my phone and looked at myself at my camera. Red blotches covered my face and my lips were starting to turn blue. I inhaled sharply, causing me to hack. My mom ran to my side, and wrapped her arm around me. She guided me back up the stars and laid me down in bed.

" Rest honey," she cooed, stroking my head, " I'll see if Felix's mum will be okay with him coming to look after you."

Felix and I were like each other's brothers. We took care of each other when we were sick, and we told each other everything. He new I was bisexual, I knew he was flat out gay. We were so close together that our own mothers didn't mind us skipping school together. I heard the muffled talking of my mum and Felix's mum and no later did I hear a knock on the door. Felix barged open the door and gasped.

" Oh no." he whispered.

I shot up, and I immediately regretted it. I clutched my chest and groaned in pain. Felix rushed to my side and squeezed my hand.

" Jack. I'm going to have to something you won't like." he said gruffly.

I coughed lightly, looking into his sparkling blue eyes. He smiled reassuringly.

" I'll have to leave for a few minutes, but I'll be right back." he said quickly.

He squeezed my hand tightly before crawling out of my window. I sat in silence, thoughts racing my mind like a thousand racing horses.

" What am I not going to like?"

" Am I dying?!"

" What is happening?!"

" Mark."

I froze at the last one. Why on God's green earth did I think of Mark in a time of absolute panic. I wished I was in his arms, his muscular frame engulfing me. The homey smell of him, the way his brown eyes sparkled. Before I knew it, Felix crawled back in the window, Mark trailing behind him.

" M--m--ar--k?" I coughed.

His eyes, his beautiful eyes, filled with horror and concern. Tears filled the sides of his eyes as he inhaled sharply.

" Am--am--I--I'm--dyin--g?" I hacked, shuddering.

Mark started crying as he hugged me.

" Aren--t--yo--u--sup--posed--t--o--hat--e--me?" I wheezed.

Mark pulled away, his beautiful brown eyes filled with tears, a fresh one rolling down the side of his face. I wiped it away with my finger, mustering a smile.

" No matter if we are enemies, I can't help but feel sadness for you." Mark said, looking young from the sheets of my bed into my eyes.

Felix stood in the corner, trying to hide the tears pricking his eyes. His bottom lip was quivering. I looked at Mark and laid my head on his shoulder. I knew I was dying. Why? I didn't know. But it was obvious to me. I just knew. I heaved a sob, tears staining Marks shirt. Mark pulled me closer to him, so I was sitting on my knees, my face buried in his shoulder.

" Ma--rk?" I coughed.

" Yes Jack?" he said sorrowfully.

I pulled myself off her shoulder so our faces were inches apart.

" I--m--dyin--g--and--I--kno--w it. I--wan--ted--to--tel-l--you--..." I hacked out.

" Yes?" Mark pressed.

" Th--is--is--craz--y--but--I--I--I--I--lov--e--you." I stuttered.

I felt as if time itself had completely stopped. It didn't matter. I was dying, and I needed to get it off my chest.

Mark's P.O.V.

" Th--is--is--craz--y--but--I--I--I--I--lov--e--you." Jack stuttered.

I felt as if time itself had completely stopped. And what I was about to do didn't matter. I wanted to do this while I had time. I held the dying man in my arms. His baby blues looked up into my chocolate brown ones. I leaned down and kissed him. I didn't need to worry about rejection anymore, he loved me and I loved him. I kissed him ever so gently, as if I was holding the most valuable thing on earth. But in a way I was. It took him a minute to register that I was kissing him. He then kissed me back, with all the strength he had left. He put all he s weight upon me and wrapped his arms around my neck. I placed my hand on him back, as if to steady him. I deepened the kiss, but I made sure not to hurt him. Then something shocking happened.

He seemed to get stronger, he kissed back with more passion and strength. We pulled for air, and when I got a good look at his face, I was astounded. He looked like his usual self again. Felix was slack jawed, probably by the fact he was not ill anymore and I just kissed his best friend. Jack still had his arms around me. His small face grew a slight grin.

" Mark." he said softly.

" Hmm?" I hummed.

" You saved me." he said, tears pricking his eyes, " You saved me."
