Finn's eyes flutter open. His eyes take a moment to adjust to the light. He can already tell he's in the hospital. His head is pounding, like a jackhammer inside his skull. Sam is above him, standing over him. Finn can see tears in his lover's eyes as he is about to speak. Kurt is calling out for a nurse or a doctor, yelling that Finn has woken up. Sam leans down and gives Finn a gentle kiss on the lips.
"Please don't ever do that to me again." Sam says with a sob and a smile.
"What happened?" Finn asks with his voice sounding raw and sore.
"You passed out. Blood was coming out of your nose. And you were barely breathing. Finn, I…I don't know what I would've done if you'd died." Sam tries his best to not cry. He wants to be strong for Finn as he waits for the doctor to come and tell his boyfriend the horrible news he knew was coming.
A knock on the door makes Sam turn around to see Dr. Anderson, Blaine's cousin, standing in the doorway. His face his calm but Sam can feel that he's going to tell them something awful.
"What's the news?" Kurt says impatiently
"Have the test results come back yet?" Sam says sounding even more impatient than Kurt.
"Yes, I've got the results. I wish I had better news, but you also need to be aware that from the looks of things its not in the late stages. We've caught the cancer somewhat early." Sam and Kurt's hearts drop to the floor and the only word Finn has heard is cancer all he hears now is a low buzzing/ringing sound and everything is out of focus.
He's trying to wrap his mind around this. The last thing he remembered was going to throw up and that was it.
I have cancer. I was gonna take Sam out tonight. I wanted to celebrate him finishing his therapy with Ms. Pillsbury. We were finally going to have sex again. I mean I wasn't going to pressure him, its just… I have cancer. I wonder if Kurt is really ok. He doesn't sleep much and I know he says its only because Blaine doesn't really sleep anymore, but I can tell he's barely holding himself together sometimes. I wish he'd just let it all go and just cry. I think he'd feel better. I have cancer. I need to find a way to help Blaine. He's become like my other brother and I want to help him. I've tried to get him to talk to him, but he just shuts down and gets all quiet and stuff. I hope he gets better. Kurt will need him if something happens to me. I have cancer. No I'm fine. I'm not even twenty years old yet. I can't have cancer. People like me don't get sick like that. Sure I could get an STD or get paralyzed in some freak accident. But cancer? No way. That only happens to little kids on tv and old people like Kurt's grandpa. There's no way I can have cancer, but I do. I can't leave Sam alone. Hell even if I do die I'm so gonna haunt him. How awesome would that be to be a ghost? You could hang out all day and you can walk through walls and people and the pope and stuff. Yeah, maybe this won't be so bad either way. I do know one thing I am gonna fight with everything I've got to try and beat this thing.
"Like I said, a couple rounds of chemo, and we'll see where we stand on operating to remove the tumors from Finn's brain. Now I'm gonna go get your discharge papers, but I want you to come back on Monday to start chemotherapy. Marsha at the desk outside will set you up with an appointment. Now nothing too strenuous, sex is ok just nothing rough. No heavy lifting or operating machinery. And, all the other Blah, blah, blah that we discussed." Dr. Anderson says to Kurt and Sam. He could tell the second he said the c word, Finn had checked out. Dr. Anderson leaves and Kurt and Sam pull up chairs next to Finn and hold his hands. Kurt and Sam both tough it out and hold back their tears. They tell him they love him and that he's going to beat this thing. Finn nods in agreement. He just wants to make them happy. He isn't worried about himself. He wants to know that no matter what happens to him Sam, Kurt, and Blaine will be ok. Kurt tells him to stop being the modest hero that sacrifices himself to take care of others. He tells to focus on himself for a change, and let him and Sam be the caretakers for a while.
"Um where's Blaine?" Finn asks looking around the room.
"He's still asleep at the apartment. Even through all the commotion he didn't wake up. I stayed behind until Puckerman showed up volunteering to watch him so I could come meet up with Sam and see how you were doing." Kurt squeezes his brother's hand, holding back his tears, but his voice cracks as he sobs through his words.
"Puck's in town?" Finn's voice shows some happiness and it makes Sam smile. Finn turns and looks at Sam.
"Remember the barn?" Finn says with a devious grin.
Sam laughs. "How could I forget? That was some of the hottest sex we've had together." Sam says smiling at Finn, while Kurt rolls his eyes in slight disgust of the image of his brother having a raunchy threesome in a barn during a storm.
"What do you say we repeat it when we go home later?" Finn says almost begging.
Sam slightly chuckles. "Maybe after you're better."
"But, baby, it's gonna be so long before I'm able to reciprocate all the loving you're gonna give me. Please baby, just tonight and then I promise I'll take it easy." Finn says pleading with his boyfriend by giving him the puppy dog eyes that melt Sam's heart every time Finn wants to do something he shouldn't.
Sam looks up at Kurt who's telling him not to do it. But, Sam can't deny Finn this wish. "Ok, but you heard the doctor, nothing too rough."
Finn throws his arms around Sam with sheer joy upon his face. He is so in love with Sam he can barely hold it in most of the time. He looks over at Kurt giving him a look of defeat. He knew Finn would get his way with this. There wouldn't be any stopping him and Sam and Puck from helping each other get their rocks off.
"Maybe Kurt and Blaine will join us." Finn says devilishly.
Kurt and Sam's jaws hit the floor. Sam is intrigued and turned on by the idea, but this was Kurt he was talking about. Finn's brother having sex with them. It could only lead to disaster, but if it was what Finn wanted, Sam would do it as long as Blaine and Kurt were willing. Kurt was a little different. Suddenly his old crush on Finn was surfacing. He couldn't help but love his dorky grin and the way his eyes caught the light. His heart melted for his stepbrother as he now reminded himself of the lack of genetic material that would make them biological brothers. Kurt was starting to get turned on and Finn and Sam could see his tight pants getting tighter.
