You're pov

I was riding into camp on my jet black horse, when I reached the camp (Beaver Hollows) I hitched my horse and I went to go give Pearson the Deer that I hunted, lately I've been doing the hunting for Arthur.

Arthur has been really ill, everytime I try to help he pushes me away (not litrally) and makes up an excuse like "I've just got a cough". But I know that it's not just a cough.

When I gave Pearson the dead Deer I made a quick B line for my tent, before I could reach my tent I heard some coughing near Arthur's tent. I fast walked over to his tent and gave a quick peak inside, he wasn't inside so I decided to go around the back.

There Arthur was coughing his lungs up, I was really worried for him it looked like he was about to pass out.

I quickly rushed over to help him "No I don't need help, take care of yourself Y/n" he said to me waving me of "No not this time" I said helping him to his tent.

I placed Arthur down on this bed, he lied down on this back to get comfortable. I sat besides him on his bed. I heard him groan out in pain, I turned to face him "Arthur I'm taking care of you from now on, I don't care if you pass on whatever cough or cold you've got" I said trying to get it through his head.

He quickly sat up, trying to reject my helping hand "what is wrong with you Arthur, What's happened to you?" I said getting impatient, I waited for his response "I'm sick Y/n" he said trying to keep the conversation short.

I stared at his face and I started to notice how different he looks. He looks like he hasn't been sleeping good, he looks more than ill, he looks like he's rotting to death "what kind of sick tho Arthur" I said trying to skip to the point "Y/n if I tell you I don't want anyone else to know" Arthur says while sitting up.

I stared back into his painful blue eyes "yes I will not tell anyone, i promise" i said holding my hand to my heart "I'm dying Y/n" he says when he says this my hand dropped of my heart and into my lap "What...H-how" I said stuttering as I feel tears soak my eyes "iv got TB" he said wiping blood of his mouth.

I looked down feeling the tears leave my eyes, they roll down my cheek into my hands. He turned towards me with tears in his own eyes, he looked really sad "I'm afraid" he said that's all it took for me to cry even more.

I look away from Arthur, I didn't want him to see that I was crying over him, I wiped my tears and turned back towards him "I'm so sorry Arthur, I wish I could help...i wish I could take you're pain away, I wish it was given to me not you, you've helped me through a lot, you even saved my life but knowing I can't save yours...it hurts" I said to Arthur.

I took both his hands in mine, I gave him a quick smile "if you ever need me, just call for me I won't be to far away" I said to him "i love you Arthur" I said as I stand up, his hands dropped down onto his lap "I love you to Y/n" he said smiling to himself "get some rest Arthur" he layed back onto his bed while I walked away.
