I do NOT own Calvin and Hobbes. I promise I won't kill Calvin. (:

Chapter

Susie and Calvin resumed walking to the park after a few minutes, they sat down on a bench to talk about the cancer, Calvin hoped that talking about it would help Susie. Which was weird because people had been bringing it up with him all the time. Calvin saw a familiar face stalking towards them. The face of Mo. Mo glared down at Calvin, "You jerk, why didn't you tell me you had cancer?"

Calvin looked at the angry Mo, "Uh, well, we aren't friends...precisely." He wondered if he would gain a punch in the head or a headlock. Usually it was one or the other. Once it was both.

"Well, we are sorta friends. Friend Enemy." Mo replied with a glare at Calvin, "Will you die?"

Calvin was surprised that Mo even cared, "No, I don't think so. Why do you care?"

Mo grabbed him in a headlock, "Now, we have already had this conversation. How bad is your cancer?"

Calvin yelped and grinned a little, "Its actually very mild. I have already started chemo, please let go." He squirmed a little and Susie looked slightly worried. She was used to seeing Calvin get beat up however.

Mo released Calvin, "Thats all I really wanted to know." He then walked away leaving Calvin very confused. He looked at Susie, "He didn't beat me up."

"No dur." Susie said with a small smile, "Calvin, you are crazy."

Calvin used fake arrogance, "Thats why you love me. I am dashingly handsome and I am amazingly insane." He struck a pose causing Susie to choke on laughter.

Susie giggled, "Calvin, you are full of yourself." She took the tiger from his back and pretended to listen to it, "Whats that Hobbes? You agree with me?"

Calvin looked indignant as he took the stuffed tiger back, "Hobbes, how could you agree with the cootie infested female?"

"Calvin, we are 18. Do you seriously believe in cooties?" Susie asked with an odd look on her face.

"Yes, the weasel their way into your brain, implant themselves, and make you like the opposite gender." Calvin looked horrified as he described it.

"Calvin, those are called Hormones." Susie said, rolling her eyes.

"That is just another name for cooties." Calvin replied with a superior look, then he whacked Susie in the head with Hobbes before jumping on his skateboard and making his amazing escape.

Susie squealed, "Calvin!" She got on hers and attempted to chase him. Calvin managed to stay away from Susie and he jumped up into a tree, "Ah ha! I am safe!"

Susie glared up at Calvin, "You think I can't climb trees? How weak do you think I am?" Susie waited for an answer.

"Very weak. Look at your weak little arms." Calvin teased from his tree. His eyes where dancing with amusement.

Susie stuck her tongue out at him, "Jerk. I am going to come up there and get you." She climbed into the tree and Calvin jumped out of it. He waved at her then bolted away. Suddenly he stopped, his back heaved like he was gagging and he ran to a trashcan, puking. This was a result of the Chemo.

Susie jumped down and went over to Calvin, patting his back, "Are you okay Calvin?"

"I think I lost everything I have eaten in the past 10 years." Calvin replied, then he shuddered and gagged again.

Susie smiled a bit, "Calvin, it only takes 24 hours to digest food."

"Sure, thats just what they want you to believe. Look, I think I see a kidney in the vomit." Calvin pointed to something.

Susie looked grossed out, "Ewwww, Calvin!"

Calvin looked at her with a slight smile on his face, "I love messing with you Susie. You give such good reactions."

Susie rolled her eyes then gently whacked the back of his head, "You loon."

Calvin made a loon call and made Susie look at him in amazement, "How did you learn how to do that?"

Calvin tilted his head, "Lots of practice and camping with Dad."

"Builds character."

"Pfft, whatever."
