Hello there! Tsukimomo calling! I'm not really all that busy since I'm taking a break from writing my other fics so I decided to write/type this one instead. A little note for any of you Riraito Matsudai fans out there, as soon as this fic is finished then I'll update that.

Note: This fic occurs when Beauty and Gasser are 14.

Disclaimer: I've said it many times before and I'll say it again; I don't own Bobobo or any of the other characters.

It was the middle of summer, and the hottest day of the year. Everyone was tired and just wanted to lie around doing nothing. However, Bobobo and Don Patch had something different in mind.

"Are you ready to rock!?" yelled Bobobo.

"Yeah!" cried Don Patch.

"I said are you ready!" Bobobo yelled again.

"I said yeah!"

"ARE YOU READ-"

"JUST GET ON WITH IT!"

"Would you SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!" yelled a very enraged Beauty.

"Uuuuuuh...no," Bobobo replied, simply.

Beauty took in a large breath of air, ready to shout at Bobobo again, but only found herself coughing heavily. Bobobo and Don Patch just stood there laughing at her as she fell to her knees being unable to breathe. After a minute or two, Bobobo and Don Patch were still laughing at Beauty since she was still coughing when Gasser came in and quickly ran to her side.

"Beauty! Are you alright?!" he cried. When the realization came to him that Beauty was coughing so hard that she couldn't answer, Gasser ran to call the hospital.

At the hospital, Gasser sat by Beauty's bed while the others had gone to see what the doctor had to say. Beauty had stopped coughing now, and was asleep. He was told that it was unlikely for her to start coughing again, but Gasser felt the need to stay close to her, in case she woke up.

"What's wrong with you, Beauty?" Gasser asked, closing his eyes. But just after he closed his, a certain someone's opened.

"Gas-Can?" Beauty said, just above a whisper. Gasser immediately opened his eyes and saw Beauty looking up at him with weary eyes.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" asked Gasser, in a soothing voice.

"My chest and throat really hurt. It feels like I'm gonna die."

"Don't say that. I bet you'll be out of here in no time at all."

"Gas-Can...I never expected to say this to you at a time like this but I...I love you."

"Y-you do?" Beauty nodded sadly. "I love you too."

Gasser lowered his lips on top of Beauty's. After a long passionate kiss, Gasser pulled away and stoked Beauty's cheek with the back of his index finger. It was then that Beauty began coughing again, this time a little blood came out of her mouth. Gasser quickly ran to get a doctor who told Gasser to wait outside the room while Beauty was being seen to.

A little later on, Beauty was awake on sat up in Gasser's arms. Gasser was lightly rocking her back and forth since she was crying, and wanted to sooth her in any way he could. They still didn't know what was wrong with her. Bobobo came in the room, a sad expression on his face.

"Hey, where're the others?" asked Gasser.

"They left," replied Bobobo. "I just finished talking to the doctor. I'm sorry to say this to you, Beauty but, it appears you have lung cancer."

Beauty's eyes widened. She buried herself in Gasser's arms, crying more heavily. Lung cancer? How did that happen?

"It appears she got it from passive smoking," Bobobo said, noticing Gasser looking like he wanted to ask how she got it but was speechless.

Gasser's body began to fill up with rage as he remembered who the only person that smoked was. Everyone had complained for that person to stop, even Beauty. Now she had to suffer with cancer because of that man.

"The doctor also said that we're allowed to take her home. When the others left they took her medication with them so we don't have to mess around getting it now," said Bobobo. Gasser nodded and lightly told Beauty that they should get ready to leave.

Ok, what ch'ya think? Just go straight to the next chapter to see what happens next.
