( A/N- I'm back guys \~3~/ )

Jerome's POV:

"Mitch! Your fine! Just put on the swimming trunks"I said.

He thrashed on the bed, trying to get away.

"No! I'm swimming in my clothes".

"Your fine! Your body is not disgusting"I whispered.

Smiling and letting my grip go a little. He calmed down and started blushing. I sit up and he sits up in front of me. I put my hands on his waist and kiss the middle of his chest. Making him blush and his eyes widen.

"J-Jerome"he stuttered.

I kiss his stomach and smiled as I raise my head and then kiss his forehead and lips. I place my hands on his cheeks. He was a blushing a crimson red that spread to his ears.

"You and your body are perfect as they are. Even your personalities, and I love you with all my heart"I whispered.

He smiled.

"Thanks biggumz. I love you too. With all my heart and soul".

I kissed him again and handed him the trunks.

"Do I have to".

"Either you change or I strip you down and put it on you"I smirked.

My face flushed and his turned back to being crimson. He grabbed the trunks and pushed me out of the room. I looked confused and turned around. Banging softly on the door.

"Mitch? Let me back in. I need to change to"I yelled.

I heard the click and smile when I saw he changed. He looked so cute. I got him a pair of black and red checkered swimming trunks. He let his arms hang and he rubbed one arm with other, up and down. Face flushed.

"You look cute in them babe. Don't be shy".

He looked at me and smiled.

"Yeah, uh, thanks. I guess"he mumbled.

I nod and kissed his forehead. Going in the room and changing into mine. Mine was black and brown checkered. He blushed while he watched me change so I just smirked and kept my boxers low. He covered his face with his hands and squeaked. Making me laugh. I pull them up to below my belly button and walk to him. Wrapping my arms around his waist. He looked down, still blushing deeply.

"What's wrong"I grinned.

"I-It feels like were in our boxers".

He squeezed his eyes shut and looked down. I smile and just cuff my hands on his cheeks and rise his head up to give a big kiss on the lips. He's still shy after we've been together for almost a year. I hear someone jump in the water and already knew who it was. I smile and Mitch smiles. I pick him up bridal style and start down stairs. His eyes widen.

"No! Jerome! Put me down"he yelled.

Thrashing ,this time in my arms. I go down the stairs slowley until we make it to the back door, where I see Adam and Ty in the water already. I get closer to the edge and throw Mitch in, then myself. I quickly bob myself to the top and smile when I see his chocolate brown eyes narrow at me.

"What"I chuckled.

He turned around and crossed his arms. Pretending to pout, which doesn't work on me anymore. I swim up, sneaking-ly, behind him and wrapped my arms around him. Making him jump. I heard a laugh coming from Ty and Adam who were sitting on the edge of the pool now. Soaking wet. I drag him to the edge of the pool and sit him in my lap.

"Don't be mad"I whispered.

Cramming my face into his back and spine.

"I'm not mad biggumz".

I felt two pairs of hands on my back and my eyes widen when they push. Dammit. He flings out of my arms and next to me in the water when we come back up. I wipe my face and narrow my eyes at the laughing two.

"What the hell"I spat, but smirked to show that I was kidding.

"Not my fault that your being lovey dovey in front of us"Ty smiled.

"You two were to".

"Not that much".

I raised an eyebrow to say, 'are you kidding me'.

Mitch's POV:

My chest had a pain spot in it, but I don't let it effect me. I need to stay positive and seem okay for Jerome. It was hurting right in the middle of my chest. I sit on the edge of the pool and Ty sits next to me. I smile when he smiled. I watch as Adam and Jerome get the beach ball and start to play volleyball in the pool. Jerome spiked it and Adam missed, making me and Ty laugh under our breath. It hurt, but for them. I stand and Jerome immediately looked at me.

"Where are you going"he said confused.

"I'm just gonna use the restroom. I'll be fine. So stay here".

He nodded and slowley turned around to hit the ball. I turn back around and go into the house. I grab my pills from the kitchen. Then going into the bathroom upstairs and locking the door. I grab the pills and went to put them in my mouth, but I stop halfway. I narrow my eyes at them and throw the three pills into the toliet. Flushing them then putting the bottles on the sinks edge. My eyes glossen as I slid my back down the wall, until my knees are at my chest and my ass is on the floor. Noisless tears stream down my face constantly as I wipe my eyes over and over. I don't wanna be sick! I don't wanna die! I want Jerome by my side forever until we die together! I started sniffing and I cover my mouth with my hand. I don't wanna make noise. If Jerome, Adam or Ty comes to check on me then they'll get suspicious. I felt something rise in my throat until it was settling in my mouth. It tasted like metal. I go to the toliet and hang my head over it. Spitting and I look. It was a little bit of blood. I felt it again and did it three more times. The whole top layer of the water was covered in blood. I spit up one more time and wipe my mouth which a little crimson on it. I shakingly stand up and grip the sinks edge until my knuckles turn a flour white. I flush the toliet once again and grab my pills. Putting them in my hand and grabbing the bottles. I open the door then go slowley down the stairs. I grab a cup of faucet water and put the pill bottles back up. Before I put the pills in my mouth I heard someone grunt which makes me jump. I quickly look behind me with a worried looking Jerome.

"J-Jerome! I thought y-you were outside"I stutter.

He's probably gonna be upset for not telling him.

"Why didn't you tell me that you were in pain"he said.

Crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes, but his eyes widen when he saw my tear stains and the speckled spots of blood on the corner of my mouth.

"Mitch? What exactly were you doing in the bathroom".

I shook my head and sit the pills and water on counter, next to the sink.

"What. Were. You. Doing"?

I look down at my feet and sigh.

"I was......thinking of things...and...um....spitting up..b-blood"I mumbled.

His eyes widen and he brings me into a tight hug. Making the pain in my chest hurt worse. I feel like I could black out, it hurt so bad.

"Why didn't you tell me"he whispered in my ear.

"I didn't want to worry you".

"Your making me even more worried now, cause your not telling me these things and keeping them from me. I hope that at least the doctor knows about them"he explained.

Pulling back on the hug and placing his hands on my waist. Pulling me closer. My face flushed.

"I'll kiss you if you take your pills"he smiled a little.

Just one corner turning up. I turn around and grab the pills and cup. Taking them real quick and swallowing. When I turned around I immediately felt his lips on mine. I kiss him back and he pulls away. Kissing my cheek. The pain started to go away a little. Slowley until it was gone. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled our torsos together. He pushed his lips against mine again as I wrap my arms around his neck. He pulled back and started kissing my ear and neck. Making me moan softly. He kept gliding his thumb across the top of my shorts. Making me blush and squeeze my eyes shut.

"Uh hem".

My eyes widen and I push Jerome back a little and look at the back door.

"What were you two doing here"Adam smirked.

I blush deeply and cover my face with my hands to hide my embarrassment.

"What do you think"Jerome said.

Looking over at them.

"About to have sex in the kitchen, even though the back door and sink window are wide open".

I blush deeper, if possible, and groan in embarrassment. I remove my hands and put the cup away, along with the pill bottles. When they saw Jerome's steamed look they walk backwards to the pool again. Making me smile and laugh under my breath. When they walked out he smiled and laughed a little himself.

"Now Mitch", I turn torwards him to see his chocolate eyes looking seriously at me ,"what happened in the bathroom exactly. Besides spitting up blood".

I shook my head.

"That's it? You promise"?

"That's it. I promise"I mumbled.

He smiled and walked to me again. Kissing me quickly and intertwining our hands together.

"Mitch. Do you wanna stay in bed and let your body calm down from what happened in the bathroom or do you wanna come back outside and sit down on the edge with Ty while I beat Adam's ass at volleyball"he grinned.

I smiled and nodded ,"I'll watch you two".

He nodded and grasped my hand gently, but a little hard so it wouldn't slip out of his hand. I add my own little grip as we walk back outside. He let go of my hand as he ran and jumped back into the pool. I sit down next to Ty, who was swinging his legs in the water. Making circles and disturbing it. He turned to me and smiled.

"Hey dude", his emotion saddened ,"you okay. What happened besides 'about to have sex in the kitchen while friends were still here'".

I blushed deeply and shook my head.

"Just things".

"What things".

I sat my hands into my lap and squeezed them with my thighs. He saw my expression and his eyes widen.

"Nonono,  Mitch...you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to you know"he smiled.

I nodded, but continued to look at him and then my stomach. Sighing and continuing to frown.

"Ty", he looked at me from looking at Adam and Jerome who were continuously playing pool volleyball ,"do I look fat".

He raised an eyebrow and shook his head.

"Mitch", he placed a hand on my stomach and rubbed ,"your as skinny as a pole. Your basically bones. In other words, your not fat. Skinny, with no meat on your bones. You need to eat alot more. Your only 95 pounds right".

I nodded as he took his hand off my stomach and placed it in his own lap. Mine were beside me and keeping me propped up from arching my back and leaning that way.

"Why did you ask me that question anyways"he said confused.

"I-.....I'm not really happy with my body, and I'm scared Jerome isn't either".

He raised an eyebrow and smiled while putting a hand on my shoulder.

"Mitch. Your perfectly fine. Even though you have cancer, it doesn't change anything. Your still you and your gonna live through this and I know it. Jerome knows it. All of us knows it. So don't worry about anything. Your still the same Mitch before and your still gonna be the same during and after all of this".

I smiled ,"thanks Ty, but you can't really say I'm gonna live through all of this"

"I known your in pain Mitch, but that's just for now. It will get better. I promise", he poked my cheek ,"you just gotta keep your hopes up and never give up. We're not".

I smiled wide and brung him in a side hug. Squeezing him tight.

"Thanks Ty...Again".

He smiled nodded ,"no problem. And by the way. I'm not saying all of this to raise your spirits up, we'll I am, but all of this is true and will come true".

"I hope so"I mumbled.

"Hey Ty"Adam yelled.

He looked over at Adam who was walking over to him slowley.

"You ready to go. It's getting late".

He nodded, "yeah. I'm ready".

He got up and I did to. Jerome got out and wrapped a towel around me. Wrapping one around himself. We go inside and lock the back door. We go into the living room and hug them goodbye. We lock the door and go up the stairs. I dry the rest of myself off and slip into some pjs and Jerome does the same. I lay down and he laid next to me. Making me smile. He raised an arm arm and I cuddle into his side. Wrapping an arm around his torso and laying my head on his shoulder.

"I love you"I whispered.

"I love you too baby".

I blushed a little and smiled a little more. Closing my eyes, then going to sleep.
