Sorry for the slow update yet again guys! Marymel and lotzalove thanks again for your reviews! Means a lot to me :) Here's the next chapter and please let me know what you think!

Room 314.

"How is he?" Sara asked as soon as she saw Nick sat in the waiting room.

He stood up when he saw her coming towards him, along with Russell. "I don't know. I've not heard anything yet."

Catherine had been sat next to him and had a tissue in her hand; her eyes were red from crying. "I hope he's going to be okay, he woke up for a few seconds but that's it."

Russell was the first to notice a doctor stood behind them all.

"Greg Sanders?" The doctor enquired.

"Yes, all of us here." Nick said hastily.

"He's got a lucky escape. Three broken ribs, luckily no serious internal damage. He's broken his right wrist and his left leg's fractured. The cast should only be on his wrist for six or so weeks and hopefully his leg will heal quite quickly." Brass had just arrived and came up to join the group.

"There's a lot of bruising over his body so he'll be sore for a while and from the looks of it he hit his head quite hard."

"Will that have any effect on his tumour?" Catherine asked worriedly.

"I don't think it will make any difference but we will need to assess him when he wakes up."

"So he'll be okay?" Russell asked.

"I think so." The doctor nodded. "You can go and sit with him when you're ready, room 314. I think he'll be awake soon, if not already."

"Thanks doctor." Sara said to him and the team smiled.

Brass moved in closer towards the group and Morgan had only heard the last bit of information about Greg from the doctor, since she went to get a coffee.

Brass had a confused face. "What's this about a tumour?"

Everybody's faces dropped. "Err, Greg found out he had a brain tumour just this week." Nick told him sadly.

"Oh boy." Brass said as he shook his head.

"He'll be okay though." Nick added with confidence. He had to believe he'd be okay.

"Yeah, he will. He's a tough kid." Brass told them. "Is that what caused him to leave in such a rush?"

Nick and Morgan shared a look. "It could have been, we don't know."

"What's that?" Catherine asked and pointed to the paper Brass held in his hand.

Brass looked down, forgetting about the paper. "It's a speeding fine. I managed to reduce it a little but that's all."

Nick grabbed the ticket and whistled. "God, that's a lot." Brass raised his eyebrows.

Russell looked at it. "I'll pay it, that's the last thing Greg needs on top of everything else."

"Hey, I'll pay some of that too man. I couldn't agree more." Nick chirped.

Everyone nodded and agreed to chip in. "Let's go and see Greg." Sara said and off they went to room 314.

He actually didn't look that bad, there was a nasty bruise visible coming from under his cast, but almost all other bruises were hidden under the gown.

"Greg?" Catherine said quietly. He opened his eyes and looked at everyone.

"Hey kiddo, how you doin'?" Brass asked him, in an almost fatherly manner. Everyone smiled when Brass called Greg 'kiddo', he was hardly a kid anymore, but he was still one of the youngest in the group. And nobody had really seen Brass show this much concern for Greg before.

Greg smiled slightly. "Okay."

Everybody laughed. "Okay? Man, you need to stop coming here; they'll be getting fed up of you." Nick joked.

Greg smiled at him tiredly and moved his left hand up to his head.

"What's wrong?" Catherine asked concerned.

"Headache."

Sara went out to find a doctor she said. Not a minute later, she came back with a doctor on her tail.

"Greg, I wasn't expecting to see you back here for anything else." His doctor said. "I'm Dr Halen for those of you that don't know me; I've been treating Greg for his cancer."

Greg looked to Nick nervously, thinking that she'd let slip about his testicular cancer.

"Yeah, they all know about his head." Nick told her and she slowly nodded her head, understanding what Nick meant.

"Yeah, and now here we are again." She said with a smile. "Are you in a lot of pain?"

Greg nodded slightly. "Not too much but my head does hurt quite a bit." He told her and the others stood around with worried faces when she frowned.

"Just look forward for me." Dr Halen told Greg which he did after looking to Nick concerned.

She pulled a torch out of her pocket and slowly moved the light across each of Greg's eyes, then did the same thing but quicker. Putting the pen away she stood back with Greg's chart in her hand.

"How bad is your pain? Out of ten"

Greg shrugged. "About an eight." He told her truthfully.

"Okay, I'm going to bring you some pain meds. Then we need to start your radiotherapy, alright?"

"Is everything alright?" Catherine asked.

Dr Halen saw the concern on her face. "I think it's best to start the radiotherapy as soon as. This crash, what was it caused by?"

Greg shook his head, "I don't know, I can't remember."

"I think he had a seizure before he got in his car." Nick told her and Dr Halen nodded.

"If we can start to reduce the size of the tumour now, it might stop these seizures, so the sooner the better, right?" She said with a tight smile.

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement and Dr Halen left, and the group talked for a while until Greg dropped to sleep.

"Greg... Greg."

Greg looked around with a frown. "Sorry to wake you, but they want to take you to have your radiotherapy soon."

He sighed. All he wanted to do just then was sleep. "You ready for this?" Catherine asked him rubbing her thumb over his hand.

"Yeah, Dr Halen said it's painless so I probably won't even feel a thing." Greg told her with a smile.

"Good." Catherine smiled. The rest of the team had gone home but she and nick wanted to stay for at least a little bit longer. Nick came in the room, holding two cups of coffee. "Hey man."

"Hey." Greg smiled at him.

Just as Nick was closing the door, Dr Halen came in. "Hi all."

"You ready for your radiotherapy?" She asked Greg.

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

"Good, there's no need to worry about it." She looked to Catherine and Nick. "I want to talk to you about something."

Greg too looked at Nick and Catherine. "You can talk to me with these here they know about everything, including my other thing."

"Well that's kind of what I wanted to talk to you about." She paused for a second. "It's about time we solve the problem of your testicular cancer. Since we know that it's spread outside of your testicle, we are going to have to do an orchiectomy and I think it's best to do a bi-lateral orchiectomy."

Greg tightened his hand around Catherine's. That's not what he wanted to hear.

"Obviously it's your choice, but if it's managed to spread to your brain, there's a high risk it will go to your other testicle, so it would be safest to remove both of them. Right now our priority is your brain tumour, but soon after we will need to discuss this more. So think it over, you got any questions I'm always around, okay?" She asked. She truly felt sorry for him, but he had to know.

Greg nodded and Dr Halen left. For a moment there was silence in the room.

"You okay?" Catherine asked him softly.

Greg did a small sideways smile at her and nodded. "Really?" Catherine asked him again.

Greg looked down. "It's just, the last thing I wanted you know." He sighed.

"Don't worry, man, it' gonna be alright." Nick consoled.

"What should I do?" Greg asked them.

"Well, the most important thing is your health." Catherine said.

"It's whatever you want to do, man." Nick said. He couldn't imagine how Greg felt.

"Sorry to interrupt, but we're ready for you." A nurse said. Greg sighed and said bye to them both, then went for his radiotherapy.
