A/N: I'm so sorry.

VOCAB TIME:

Port: an internal I.V in a way; it helps chemo move through the body faster; is surgically placed in the left or right side of your chest or hip before chemo starts

Mitch ran into the hospital, breathing heavily. Scott ran in carefully, making sure he didn't run into anything that could hurt his chest. Alex walked in, putting his arm around Scott's shoulders.

"How may I help you?" The receptionist asked in a drawl. She looked at her acrylic nails and popped her bubble gum.

"We're the sons of Kevin Olusola," Scott answered, cursing to himself mentally when he tried to speak loudly but gave an answer came out as a whisper. "We were told that he came in here less than an hour ago."

The receptionist nodded as she typed something in. After a few minutes of endless searching, the receptionist pointed towards the elevator.

"He's on Floor 5, Room 28."

The three of them nodded their thanks and went to the elevators. As they got into the elevator, Alex then looked at the time and sighed sadly. He then pressed both '5' and '7', rubbing Scott's back gently.

"Scott, your treatment starts right now," Alex reminded, causing Scott and Mitch to frown. "We have to get you ready for your port surgery. Mitch, we'll try to see Kevin later. Okay?"

"O-ok-kay," Mitch agreed, looking towards the elevator doors when they stopped at '5'. Scott then hugged his brother tightly, not wanting to let go. "I love you, Scott."

"I love you too, Mitchy."

~~~

Mitch walked into Room 28, his guest breaking at the sight. Kevin has multiple I.Vs in his arms. He has a breathing machine and he looks so tired. A doctor was in there and he looked up when Mitch walked in.

"You're related to Kevin Olusola, I presume?" The doctor asked softly. Mitch nodded, refusing to take his eyes off of his father. "I need to talk to you about him. Let's stand in the hallway for a few minutes."

"O-ok-kay," Mitch replied, following the doctor. When they got out of the room, the doctor began to flip through his papers. "Wh-wh-at's the ma-ma-tter with my dad?"

"He's in a coma," the doctor answered, looking up. Mitch tried to blink away the tears, but they fell down his cheeks anyway. "He had a major heart attack. His caretaker found him in his kitchen. I'll try to take care of him so he could get better, but his chances of survival are slim."

"Wh-ha-at are t-th-th-hey?" Mitch asked, his heart beating fast. When the doctor didn't answer, he began to cry more. "T-te-ell me, p-p-lease!"

"I'm so sorry," the doctor began genuinely. He then looked at his notes once more and looked up. "He had a 35% chance of getting out of the coma."

Lilliana glared at her cousins when they began to laugh at something random. Ariana and Kirstin walked out of their room, talking excitedly about Orange is the New Black.

"I don't care about how much you ship them. Larry is a jerk and Piper doesn't  deserve him," Ariana argued, laughing a bit when Kirstin poked her. She smiled at her niece, nephew, and daughter, hugging Kirstin tightly. "Hey, kiddos. What are you three doing?"

"Well, Matt and I are talking about SpongeBob while Lilliana is moping like always," Sara answered, smiling more when her aunts laughed. "What did you two do?"

"We watched Netflix," Ariana answered, causing Sara and Matt to laugh even more. "What did I say?"

"Nothing," Matt replied, trying not to snicker. "Never mind. Are you two seeing our dad today?"

"We might," Kirstin answered, shrugging her shoulders. "It might be a bit difficult because it's his first round of chemo."

The Kirk children nodded sadly, hoping that their father stayed okay. Cancer was definitely something they never imagined causing their family to become stronger. They refused to let something like that tear them apart though. They had to get stronger through each other.

"I'm bored," Lilliana yelled, causing everyone to look at her. "I want to go to the park. It's not fair!"

"You should've thought of that before saying that Mitch wanted to kill himself," Kirstin scolded, shaking her head. "You need a personality adjustment or something, young lady."

"She also told me that I wouldn't know what an unfair life is because I'm rich," Sara informed her aunts, glaring at her cousin. "Kind of sad to see how she thinks getting punished for her actions is unfair."

"You're grounded for another week," Ariana finalized. Lilliana screamed angrily and stomped out of the room, shaking her head. "I'm so sorry, Sara. Were you okay after that?

"I guess," Sara answered, smiling when Matt squeezed her hand gently. "I had a hard life, but I never complain. After hearing her say that, I just got angry and yelled at her. I'm so sorry."

"You're fine," Kirstin reassured, looking at the siblings. Sara and Matt acted like Scott, her, and Mitch when they were younger and it warmed her heart up whenever the siblings made jokes or comforted each other. "She never acts like that. Why she is acting that will always make me worry."

(Warning: The next part is based on a true story. This happened to me when I was thirteen and had my first round of chemo. It could be very traumatizing. Needles and panicking is involved.)

Scott woke up to notice a band-aid and needle in his right side of his chest. He looked up to notice that bags of medicine on a pole. He sighed as he at up carefully, not wanting to pull at the needles.

Wow...so this is what chemo feels like. Weird.

"Well hello, my prince," Alex greeted, running his hands through Scott's hair. He smiled sadly when he realized that the beautiful blond hair will be gone in a couple weeks. "You look good. How do you feel?"

"Surprisingly not like I'm about to get sick," Scott joked, chuckling a bit. He noticed a nurse and smiled at her. "Hello."

"Hello, Scott," the nurse replied, checking to make sure Scott is okay. She gasped slightly as she looked at the bandage. "Um, we need to replace the needle. The bandage lifted up and an infection could happen. I'll be right back."

Scott then looked at Alex, scared out of his mind. Alex squeezed his hand, hoping to calm his husband down. He widened his eyes when a team of nurses came in. One of them held a needle that had to be at least an inch long.

"Now I have to remove it," another nurse murmured, taking the bandage off. Scott flinched when the needle was removed and the nurse looked at him sadly. "I'm so sorry. Take a deep breath."

Scott was about to ask why when a new needle went near his skin immediately. He didn't know what happened, but he did the first thing his body told him to.

He began to thrash around, causing the nurse to miss. Alex widened his eyes when Scott began to cry heavily, wanting to get away from the needle.

"We need to hold him down," one of the nurses murmured, taking one of Scott's legs. Everyone gathered around his body and he screamed as loud as he could, crying even more. "It's okay! Calm down, honey."

"Scott," Alex spoke up quietly, takin his hand. He then squeezed it, hoping to calm him down. "It's going to be okay. Just look at me."

The needle then went into Scott's port area. A new bandage was added and the nurses all took sighs of relief. One by one, they began to leave. A nurse stood by and rubbed Alex's back.

"I'm so sorry," she apologized, frowning at Scott's tears. "I hope everything is okay. I'll be your nurse so if you need anything, just press the remote. I'm Nurse Kyah( a/n: This might or might not be Scomicheforlyfexoxo) so if you need anything, just call me."

Alex nodded as he went into Scott's hospital bed, hugging his husband tightly. Scott cried heavily, making Alex's shirt wet.

"It's okay, baby. Everything will be okay. You're so strong, I promise."

A/N: Sorry for the Scott part.:/ This was obviously one of the most traumatizing moments of my life. I was kept down by nurses and my mom when they put the needle in. I was thirteen. I am now seventeen and I'm better now, but the moment still terrifies me.

HOWEVER

Moving on from the sadness, who wants to be a nurse in this story? It will be a super small part, but you'll still be in the story.:) Just comment your name and you will automatically be in the story! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I love all of you!!!:)
