A Sister in Need

AN: Well I've had a blast writing this story and I have another coming right up, but today I'm posting along with a one shot I wrote a while back since I didn't have time to write another chap for witness, school has been hectic. Anyhoo, this chapter is my absolute fave, when wrote it I was in a daze I didn't even realize it and when I was done I was surprised that I written it lol. This is super dramatic but I'm hoping a satisfactory ending for everyone, leave your reviews

Naomi sighed impatiently and started tapping her foot.

"Babes try to relax," Emily said.

"Don't tell me to fucking relax Emily!" Naomi snapped angrily. "You told me to relax before the surgery and now you're telling me to relax now? That fucking tumor could be cancer again!"

Emily sighed deeply trying to hinder her patience. "It's because you had surgery last week that I'm telling you to calm down, that can't be good for you."

"Neither is cancer!" Naomi spat.

"You know what, you've been a right bitch this week since they removed the tumor, you haven't even carried Alex!" Emily growled angrily. "You have good odds and here you are acting like you're gonna fucking die again and I DON'T LIKE IT!"

"Emily," Naomi said in frustration.

"No! Fuck off and go take a walk. Don't bloody come back til you've calmed down because I'm nervous about this shit too," Emily snapped.

Naomi groaned in frustration and stood up out of her chair, She gave it an angry kick and stomped off away from Emily. If she were a cartoon there would have been steam shooting out of her ears. She clenched her fists so tight she was sure her nails would break skin at some point. She had all these emotions within her and she couldn't seem to control them.

Then she saw a familiar face, leaning over the counter talking to a nurse. He looked the same as he did in college, except he was much skinnier and he was wearing a baseball cap, which he would never wear over his well kept hair. He leaned away from the nurse and turned around, freezing in his spot when he saw Naomi.

"N-Naomi?" he said in surprise.

Naomi felt a surge of anger and she stomped towards him. "You fuckwit wanker!" she slapped him hard in the face send him stumbling back. "How dare you even speak to me you bastard?"

He looked ashamed as he stood up straight again. "I see Emily told you what I did?"

"Yes she did, how could you do that Dean? I know you were a homophobic cunt but to that extreme? To try to…ugh I should wring your little neck!"

Dean backed away when she took a menacing step towards him. "Wait, wait, I'm gay!"

Naomi froze.

"I'm gay too!" Dean said. "I tried to deny it by being as homophobic as possible and at that party I got so pissed and Emily is the only girl I ever felt any sort of attraction towards, I'm such an idiot and you have no idea how sorry I am. I looked for her after college but I was told she was in New York."

"You looked for her to apologize?" Naomi said cocking an eyebrow at him.

Dean nodded as his eyes filled with tears. "Yes, yes I was going to grovel. I've spent the last few months trying to make amends to everyone I've hurt with my cuntish behavior and I was actually writing a letter to Emily."

"You can tell her yourself, she's here," Naomi said.

Dean gulped. "I want to apologize yes, before it's too late."

"Too late?"

Dean removed his baseball and revealed his bald-head. "Brain tumor, terminal."

Naomi's head dropped. "Oh, I'm sorry."

"They say I have two months," Dean said.

"I did clinical trials in New York and beat stage three cancer but I'm waiting for the results of a biopsy of a new tumor they found," Naomi said.

Dean looked sad. "I am sorry Naomi, you don't deserve this."

"Neither do you Dean."

"Yes I do, I've hurt so many people karma was bound to get me."

"No Dean, no one deserves this fucking disease," Naomi said passionately. "No matter what shitty things they've done."

Dean gave Naomi a sad smile. "At least I have my partner Peter with me, makes this just a bit easier to bear you know?"

"Emily's been with me every step of the way," Naomi said. She let out a sigh, "And I've been a bitch all day. Now I feel shit."

"Think we both need to apologize then," Dean said.

Naomi nodded. "Come on then, this way."

As Dean walked beside Naomi back to where Emily was, Dean said, "Peter has been an angel about this whole situation, always making sure I'm happy."

Naomi smiled at him and said, "Emily has too, there was this one time after my 2nd clinical trial had failed. My third clinical trial, the one that succeeded, was scheduled for a month later so they were discharging me from the hospital to enjoy my month because there was a very VERY good change it would be my last…"

…

"Hello Miss Campbell," the nurse said walking in with her clipboard. "How are you feeling today?"

Naomi smiled at her and said, "I'm good thank you. You're new right?" She looked at her nametag, "Nurse Smith?"

"I was working in Peds but I transferred here," Nurse Smith said, "Hard to watch sick kids ya know?"

Naomi nodded. "Right."

"So you're leaving tomorrow huh?"

"Yes, to enjoy my potential last month of life," Naomi said.

"Well don't think of it like that," Nurse Smith said with a friendly smile. "Think of it as the last month you'll be sick. After that you won't be sick anymore no matter how the trial goes right?"

Naomi chuckled. "I suppose that's a positive way to look at it."

"I've learned to see things that way, it's the only way to survive in this business," Nurse Smith said. "Who's picking you up tomorrow?"

"My partner Emily," Naomi said. "She's coming over in an hour and spending the night here with me so we can just leave in the morning."

"Oh that's nice," Nurse Smith said. "A lot of patients are completely alone in these processes, it's nice that you have someone to support you."

"It's more than nice, Emily has been with me every single step of the way, she put herself in debt to get me into this program," Naomi said with a sigh.

"It's worth every penny as long as you survive."

"True," Naomi said. "You know I like you, I feel like I can tell you anything."

"I've been told that before," Nurse Smith said.

"To be honest, I'm a bit scared about leaving the hospital after the whole year I've been here," Naomi said.

"Why is that?"

"I mean Emily has been doing a scrapbook to get her mind off things and she found this little bucket list I made and promised that we would do everything on it," Naomi said. "I'm not going to lie, most of the things on that list are…well sexual."

"Understandable," Nurse Smith said with a smile.

"The thing is, we're having a bit of a drought," Naomi said. "Lesbian bed death if you will."

"Ahh that's a myth."

Naomi shook her head. "It's been a year and a half since we've had sex."

"Ooo," Nurse Smith groaned. "Maybe it's not."

"Well it's mostly because Emily has confused me with glass, she seriously thinks I'll shatter if she even touches me," Naomi said with a heavy sigh. "Even when she saw the bucket list she said we'd start with the non-sexual stuff like going to Times Square and the top of the Empire State Building, but…"

"You don't want that."

Naomi nodded. "Exactly."

"So tell her."

"Tell her?"

"Yes, just tell her straight up," Nurse Smith said. "No one knows how that third clinical trial will end and as positive as you spin it you have to think realistically too, that it may be now or never."

Naomi smiled. "Thank you."

"It's my pleasure Miss Campbell."

"Please call me Naomi."

Nurse Smith smiled and said, "Then you call me Laquoia."

With those words Laquoia left the clipboard on the table next to Naomi's bed, wrote something on her chart then walked out of the room with a friendly wave. Naomi sighed deeply as she was once again left alone. She had been sitting in a side chair because she was tired of lying down. She was wearing the patient scrubs, which were pink as opposed to the nurse's green and the doctor's blue. She was grateful she didn't have to wear those nasty hospital gowns. On her head she usually had a fashionable scarf—her favorite one was actually the leopard print one Katie sent her—but tonight she didn't have one on.

Her nearly bald head had only a thin layer of peach fuzz and Emily teased her occasionally by calling her G.I Jane. She sat there rubbing her head and reading her bucket list and looked up when Emily walked in with her book bag on her shoulder shaking her umbrella that was soaked.

"Oh it's raining?" Naomi said.

"Yeah, cats and dogs as they say here," Emily said setting the umbrella down and walking over to Naomi. "How was your day babes?" She gave Naomi a kiss on the lips and smiled.

Naomi caressed her cheek lovingly and said, "In the afternoon I had a bit of nausea but I feel fine. I ate my full lunch and I've been up and walking around all night."

"Good babes," Emily said with a smile.

"Emily," Naomi said setting her bucket list down on the table. "Let's go outside."

"What? Naoms it's raining."

"Number seven on my bucket list."

Emily picked up the paper and read it. "Run around in the rain."

Naomi smiled. "I used to love doing that as a little girl. I'd run around Bristol looking for the biggest puddles, and then I'd stake it out waiting for someone to walk by so I could jump in it and get them all soaked."

Emily laughed. "You were always cheeky then."

Naomi nodded with a grin. "It was funnier when they were under huge umbrellas trying their best not to get wet."

"Oh that's just evil."

"Come on then," Naomi said standing up from her chair and grabbing Emily's hand.

"Babes I don't want you to catch a chill," Emily said.

Naomi shook her head. "I won't, now come on."

Naomi tugged on Emily's hand leading her towards the back patio. It was a beautiful, huge garden the patients could enjoy when they needed the fresh air. There were pretty flowers and huge trees and grass everywhere. Emily stepped out of her heels as they stepped outside and said, "It's impossible to walk on grass with those, the fucking heels dig into the dirt it's bloody annoying."

"Yeah, that's why I don't wear heels."

"No it's not."

"No, it's not, but it's a good reason."

"Whatever," Emily laughed. Emily was wearing a nice blouse and pencil skirt but none of that matters at all when Naomi ran right onto the garden and into the rain. She laughed happily as she was almost instantly soaked by the drops. Emily was entranced by the sheer beauty of it all.

Naomi was soaked head to toe, the droplets rolling down her bald head and her face, a peaceful smile on her face, her eyes closed in bliss. Emily didn't think it could get any better until Naomi opened those gorgeous blue eyes and looked right at her.

"Come on!"

Emily ran right into the rain barefoot. Her fancy school outfit was drenched before she even reached Naomi, and when she got to her the blonde pulled her into a tight hug.

They hugged each other like in a cliché Hollywood movie when the lovers reunite after being torn apart. They parted when Naomi gripped Emily's hand and tugged her further into the garden.

"Come on I gotta show you something!"

They ran towards the trees at the end of the garden where there was a brick wall. There were all sorts of large trees of different kinds, none that Emily could really tell apart because they were the typical trees that didn't usually get photographed. There was only one tree that would, a large willow tree in the corner.

The leaves drooped low enough to touch the ground and they were so luscious it was very hard to see through them. Emily could barely make out the trunk through the leaves, but it seemed to be thick enough to hide five people behind it perfectly. Naomi led her to the willow tree and parted the curtain of leaves for her.

Emily stepped in and gasped, it was like walking into a cave. Slivers of moonlight peaked in from the tiny holes in between the thick leaves and the rain couldn't reach them there. Naomi stepped up behind her and hugged her waist.

"This is my favorite place," Naomi said. "I like to sit in here where no one can see me, I feel like nature is protecting me."

"It's…breathtaking."

"Never been in here when it's raining though, it's even more gorgeous."

Emily nodded and pulled out her cellphone, which was waterproof. She had bought it after several incidents involving alcohol and a pool, but this phone also had the advantage of a very good camera.

Emily took several pictures with the flash, then tugged on Naomi's arm. "Come on pose."

"Em, you know I don't like pictures."

"Then why are you with a photographer?"

"Cause I love you."

"Good, now pose."

Naomi sighed deeply and stood in front of the curtain of leaves smiling. Emily took several pictures in different angles then put her phone away. "Perfect."

"Nna uh," Naomi said shaking her head walking to the huge trunk and sitting down in front of it. "Sit."

Emily walked to the trunk and sat beside Naomi.

Naomi grabbed Emily's hand then leaned in and pressed her lips against hers. It was a deep, passionate kiss that sent Emily whirling. Her hands gripped the back of Naomi's head gently rubbing the peach fuzz on it because she liked the feel of it against her hands.

Naomi deepened the kiss by swirling their tongues together and laying Emily down on the grass. Emily moaned softly as Naomi straddled her and caressed her cheek as if she were a priceless piece of artwork. Emily loved it. No one worshipped her like Naomi, and she found that she worshipped the blonde just as much.

She felt Naomi's hands gently spreading her legs and placing her hips in between them. Naomi's hands went up her thighs slowly, making sure to caress and touch every inch of creamy skin she could touch. Emily felt her skirt being pushed up and Naomi's hands gripping the waistband of her knickers.

"Mm Naomi," Emily breathed against her lips as Naomi tugged the knickers down to her knees. "Naomi," Emily breathed again, "we can't."

"Why not?" Naomi said breathily. Her voice did the opposite of Emily's. When Emily became passionate her voice got deeper and huskier, but when Naomi did her voice got squeakier and breathier.

"I…" Emily breathed as Naomi's caressed her inner thighs, which were extremely sensitive. "Ohh God, Nai…I don't…mm, I don't want to hurt you."

"You won't," Naomi said gently kissing her throat. "You can never hurt me Emily."

"Nai…"

"I need you Emily," Naomi said desperately as her fingers slowly slid up and down Emily's soaked slit.

The twin arched her back and groaned.

"And you need me too."

"Yesss," Emily husked.

"It's been over a year and you can't be afraid to touch me anymore," Naomi said gently rubbing Emily's clit in slow circles. "Love me Emily, and let me love you."

"Ahh Naomi!" Emily cried arching her back. "Yes, please! I need you, I need you so much."

Naomi crashed their lips together desperately as she slipped two fingers deep into Emily's core. Emily gasped against her lips as Naomi pushed her fingers deep into her with the help of her thigh. She rocked against her in slow but hard thrusts swallowing each of Emily's moans with her mouth.

"Em," Naomi breathed, "T-together, together."

Emily let out a soft whine and ran her hands down Naomi's back and around to her stomach. She slipped on her hands into Naomi's scrubs and knickers and moaned when her fingers were immediately coated by wetness.

Naomi let out a shaky breath as she thrust harder into Emily rocking her body not only to get more strength in her hand, but also to rub herself against Emily's fingers. Emily kept her thumb on Naomi's clit and moved the rest of her hand lower to slip two fingers into her. The position was painful for her hand but she didn't care.

"Uhh yesss!" Naomi cried anxiously burying her face into the crook of Emily's neck. Their heavy breaths and moans were the only noises piercing the night other than the rain falling all around them. They rocked together clinging to each other for dear life and writhing at the intense pleasure. With every rock upwards Naomi would push her fingers deeper into Emily, and with every push back down Emily's fingers would push further into her.

They were in complete sync as the familiar tingling sensation shot up from their feet up to their heads. They're thrusts were becoming erratic and their bodies couldn't stop shaking.

They kissed again just as the orgasm hit them both together in waves. Emily arched up her eyes wide open and her body trembling, as Naomi twitched and bucked her hips uncontrollably. Naomi curved her fingers into Emily trying to prolong her orgasm as much as possible as her orgasm started to fade away and moaned loudly when Emily cried out and ejaculated hard.

Her essence shot out hard like a jet and her hips rose off the ground. Naomi watched her face contorted in pleasure, staying in her spot between Emily's legs as the full body orgasm took over her. She shook hard with those convulsing-like spasms and gripped Naomi's shoulders for dear life.

It took a few minutes for Emily to calm down and collapse under Naomi breathing heavily.

"Now," Naomi whispered softly, "it's perfect."

Emily gently caressed Naomi's cheek and said, "Naoms, I love you."

"I love you too Emily," Naomi said softly. "You have no idea how glad I am that you stuck with me through this disease. You have given me the best year of my life just by sitting beside me and giving me that beautiful smile I love so much."

"Naomi don't speak like that," Emily said her voice cracking, "As if you're going to die."

"But there's a good chance of that," Naomi said sadly, "And I just want you to know that I love you with all my heart and I couldn't have gone this far without you. Thank you so much for loving me Emily, even when I didn't deserve it, even when I was being a bitch, denying my feelings, cheating on you, treating you like shit, you still loved me and that means you have a heart of gold."

"Naomi, please…" Emily said as tears spilled from her eyes.

Naomi wiped away the tears gently and said, "If I died tomorrow, I'd die happy."

"No!" Emily sobbed wrapping her arms around Naomi's neck and pulling her down on top of her. Naomi hugged her hard burying her face in the crook of Emily's neck as hard sobs ripped from her chest. "You won't leave me. You can't, because I can't live without you."

They held each other tight not saying another word as the rain continued to fall along with their tears.

…

"Dean Parker?" Emily said standing up from her chair in surprise. She should have been instantly mad, but she couldn't with him standing there with his unnaturally bald head, his sunken eyes, and his emaciated body. He looked very much like Naomi did in her worst state when they were both convinced she would die.

"Emily Fitch," he said with a small bow.

"I ran into him," Naomi commented.

"I just wanted to formally apologize to you for what I did," Dean said. "I was trying so hard to pretend I wasn't gay myself and I got so pissed, but there is no excuse for what I did. I will understand if you don't forgive me but just know I am so sorry."

Emily just stared at him, processing the information. She was surprised that he had been gay the whole time, but it was more surprising to see him actually apologizing when he was as stubborn and hot-headed as Cook himself who accepted prison-time before apologizing to the bloke he beat so badly at that party.

She gave him a sad smile and said, "I do forgive you Dean."

Dean let out a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you Emily, thank you."

"Naomi Campbell-Fitch?" a nurse called out from down the hall.

"Oh you're married?" Dean said smiling, "Congratulations."

"Thank you," Emily said smiling.

"Good luck with your treatments Dean," Naomi said but Dean only smiled sadly.

"Good luck with your results," Dean said. "And I'm glad I got to see you two again."

Naomi took Emily's hand and led her towards the nurse waving back at Dean and saying, "Bye Dean."

"Yeah, goodbye."

Emily gave Naomi a questioning look and Naomi just nodded silently, both of them understanding each other without saying a word.

"I want to apologize too," Naomi said following the nurse to Sid's office.

Emily sighed and smiled. "I know babes."

"No I'm truly sorry, I was a cunt."

"You were scared, I understand."

Naomi squeezed Emily's hand and said, "I love you."

"I love you too."

"Good morning ladies, have a seat please," Sid said as they walked into the office. They sat down across from him as he shuffled papers around.

"Our friend Effy says you're her brother's friend," Emily said with a smile.

Sid nodded his head. "I remember Effy, still a troublemaker yeah?"

"Some things never change," Naomi laughed.

"Well tell her I said hi, I haven't seen Tony since college though," Sid said, "Different paths I suppose. Well let's get these results yeah?"

"Yes please," Naomi said anxiously.

"Well like I said before, you're chances were really good and just like I suspected the tumor was benign."

"Oh thank fuck!" Naomi cried.

Emily laughed and hugged Naomi tight.

Sid smiled at them and said, "Congratulations Naomi, you're still cancer-free."

…

"Today we make a toast," Cook said raising a champagne glass and grinning. "To all of us who have found success and happiness in our lives. We have all changed loads since college."

He lifted his glass and said, "Pandora and Thomas I am happy that you guys are still standing together strong, and Thommo cheers on getting that bronze medal in the Olympics."

Everyone clapped and cheered at that.

"J.J and Lara I am so happy for you and your family, congratulations on the new pregnancy, can't wait for the new sibling you'll be giving Albert and little Freddie. Effy, I'm glad you found a job you finally like and you're not in prison so definitely kudos to that, I definitely know how hard it is to stay out."

Everyone laughed and Effy tipped her glass slightly.

"Katie, babes what can I say, you changed my life, you've given me love and happiness and a family that I'd never thought I'd have," Cook said with a grin as Katie stepped forward and gave him a kiss on the lips.

"And finally to Emily and Naomi, who have sacrificed so much to help Katie and I to have little Alex. I am happy for Naomi's clean bill of health and for your new flat and for your marriage and for your love. You have been an inspiration to us all."

Cook took a deep breath and continued, "There's only one person missing from our group today, but though he's not here physically he is here inside of all of us. To our success, to our love, to our new family, to our new homes, to our good health, and to Freddie McClair!"

"Cheers!"

Everybody lifted their glasses of champagne (though Emily, Naomi, and Lara had apple cider) and took a sip. As everyone mingled and looked around Naomi and Emily's new home or fiddled with baby Alex who was with Gina and Jenna on the sofa, Katie approached Emily and Naomi with a smile.

"Emsy, I really can't thank you enough for what you did," Katie said hugging her sister tight.

"We've had a long and bumpy road sis, but you know that I love you and I'd do anything for you," Emily said. "And well Naomi too."

"As would I," Naomi said giving Emily a sweet kiss on the cheek.

Katie gripped Emily's hand smiling brightly as she said, "If you ever need anything you tell me because I am always willing to help a sister in need."

THE END
