WARNING: Major character death
Both Pickle Inspector and Droog knew this would happen eventually. With all his smoking habits and his life as a member of a gang, they both knew death was waiting at every corner. The Inspector didn't expect it to be so sudden though. He thought they would live on in their happy little world forever. Their world where everything was perfect and nothing hurt.
PI didn't expect to get such a sudden call from the hospital saying that Droog was at that location, and most likely going to die, at that. Droog was a smart man, but for a smart man he sure did a lot of stupid things. So that morning, he was interrupted from his daily break for tea, and dropped everything to go see him for most likely the last time.
Pickle Inspector entered the room slowly and saw his boyfriend asleep on the hospital bed. Droog was always the stronger one of the two, he always took care of the Inspector when he was sick or injured, which was pretty often considering how frail he was. They both always assumed the Inspector would be the first of them both to die. This time, however, he had to be the strong one. He walked over to the bed and lightly touched his boyfriends forehead and kissed it. His eyes slowly opened and the Inspector started to tear up at the sight of his dying lover.
"What h-happened, I got a phone call saying you were here?" PI said tearing up, once DD had awoken. He had always hated his stutter but DD thought it was cute.
"Car crash. Got shot in the chest." DD replied bluntly.
"O-oh.. they told me you were probably going to die."
"No. Not probably, I'm dying." Droog said weakly.
"Oh.." Pickle Inspector replied shortly. Silence filled the room while tears started rolling down the Inspectors face.
"I should have listened to you. You were right." Droog replied after five painfully long minutes of silence.
"R-right about what?" Pickle Inspector was also a very smart man, but he was also oblivious to a lot of things.
"My life as a member of the midnight crew. You were right about everything. About my smoking habits and my drinking problems. You always told me it would kill me someday, but I never listened."
He didn't know what to say. All that he could think to do is apologize
"I'm sorry.."
"You don't have to apologize. You do that too much. I should be the one to say sorry."
Then, something rare happened. Droog started crying. The usually serious and stone faced man actually started crying.
"I'm sorry because I never told you how much I actually love you. I always just blew it off like an asshole, but you truly mean a lot to me." Droog said in
his usual monotone despite the tears in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, as well.. I-I love you t-too." Pickle Inspector stuttered out, with both of them crying now.
PI leaned down slowly to kiss him one last time. They would never be able to kiss again. After they broke from the kiss, DD wrapped his arms around PI.
Droog whispered something along the lines of, "Its true what they say, that you live fast you die young," before slowly closing his eyes and talking his last breath.
Pickle Inspector broke out into full out sobbing as the nurse came back into the room to check on them. He was pulled out of the room and left. Droog's last words were the only thing on his mind.
