"I love you too, Stephen." Because of course he does, how can he not? It still doesn't prepare him for Stephen's next words, and he shakes his head, a cold numbness sweeping over him as he tries to process what Stephen is telling him. Brain tumor. His last trip. It doesn't seem real.
It's a long while before he can get his voice to work properly. His mouth opens and closes several times, trying to form words, but it's ages before he actually voices a shaky "No." Because this can't be happening. Because it can't just end like this. Because he can't lose Stephen. Not like this.
"There has to be something that can be done. Some kind of treatment," he insists, ignoring the fact that his voice is breaking and tears are welling up in his eyes. "Stephen, you can't just— You can't die."
