A/N: I'm just going to go ahead and apologize. This chapter is going to be a sad one. Happy late Halloween(Alexa, play the ending of 'Sexy' from Mean Girls the musical). I'm so sorry. This is a major plot point that has to be done. Now, on with the chapter.
It took two months for them to get a date set, but it was eventually the night before the court case. Victor blocked Veronica and believed she was out of his life for good. All they had to do now was sign some papers and say they accept the adoption in front of a judge.
They were sitting around the TV, watching 'Top Gun.' All three of them were half asleep. Victor's phone vibrated with a text from Benji, asking if he could come over the next day. He sent a reply, saying that they could hang out that evening.
"We're going to head to bed," Bram whispered.
"Ok," Victor said, Bram helped Simon to their bedroom. He had been informed that his condition had slowly gotten better, but the tumor was still there. They said that to might be gone by December in the treatment continued to do its thing.
Victor finished watching the movie and then went to his room. He climbed into his bed and turned off his lights. His dads were going to wake him up in the morning to get ready for the court hearing. He fell asleep shortly after laying on the bed.
Victor woke up the next morning. It was eight-thirty, which meant he needed to be at the courthouse in under the next hour. He quickly stood up and sloppily got dressed. He ran the comb through his hair and did all of the things he had to do to get ready.
He went to the living room, where he saw Ivy was sitting on the couch. She had tears welling up in her eyes. "Aunt Ivy, what is going on?" Victor asked.
"Please take a seat," Ivy said. Victor did as told. "The cancer was worse than we expected. Sometime during the night, your father suffered a stroke. Bram rushed him to the hospital, trying not to wake you up. He was taken to the intensive care unit."
"The tumor has doubled in size since the last time they checked," Ivy explained. "They had to take him into surgery."
"How is he doing?" Victor asked. "Can I see him?"
"Victor," Ivy said. "He's gone."
A/N: Sorry for the shorter chapter. This one was a hard one to right, but it had to be done. I love you guys, and thanking you for putting up with me. Goodbye for now my friends.
