《Infinity || Dan Smith》Fifty-Three.
Advertisement
When Dan gets back to the private hospital Charlie's chemo has already been set up so he doesn't need a mask. Instead he walks into a room braving a loving smile, although he's still traumatised by the 'talk' he had with his mother and sister.
"What took you so long?" Charlie asks while her nurse, who was giving her company, walks out of the room with a supportive smile tattooed onto her face.
"N-nothing..." Dan stutters while Charlie points at her boyfriend.
"I know when there's something wrong." Charlie's in a good mood today, she had a gentle nurse this time and she knew what she was expecting so it hurt less. But she can slowly feel herself gradually become tired.
"But what if I told you that you're wrong...because nothing's wrong." Dan then smiles, but of course Charlie narrows her eyes and tilts her head to the space in the bed besides her.
"I'm never wrong." Dan throws his eyes backward while he sits bedsides Charlie. He wants to tell her the truth, but he's scared that she'll disown him. Charlie clearly means everything to Dan, she's his daughters mother and his lover. He'll do anything and everything for her if he could, even if it means taking away her illness.
"Tell me." Charlie says while she strokes Dan's cheek with the arm that isn't attached to the drip.
"Just the past coming up again and biting me in the arse." Charlie rolls her eyes backwards.
"Now you know how I feel when you go on about your chocolate days." Both Dan and Charlie laugh at the thought of Dan's sob story.
"Sorry..." his voice trails off whilst blushing a very light shade of pink in his puffy cheeks.
"When's the last time you ate?" Because of the chemotherapy, Charlie lately hasn't been eating anything at all. Her appetite is gone and she's...wasting away. Not that she'd admit it though.

"Are you seriously judging me for not eating?" Dan leans on his side while Charlie throws the duvet over him. Although Dan isn't feeling the cold like Charlie is.
"One of us needs to stay strong for Lacey, I mean...you kinda look like a giraffe right now." Dan nods his head. He'll do anything for her...when if it's putting on a bit of winter weight.
Charlie then curls up besides Dan as she suddenly is overwhelmed with tiredness, although they suggest that you don't fall asleep in chemo. "Ay..." Dan whispers nudging Charlie on the arm.
But Charlie doesn't respond. Instead she closes her eyes while Dan tilts his head back. "The bitch called." Charlie whispers.
"Which bitch?" Both Dan and Charlie are plagued by 'bitches' both dead and alive. They've both given up with naming them.
"Au-bitch." Dan cracks a smile. No matter how ill Charlie is, she'll forever call Aubrey a bitch. But Aubrey doesn't mind. She's used to be 'queen bitch' or whatever nicknames Charlie titles her with.
"What did she want?" Dan asks while Charlie tries to hold in a pile feeling.
"For you to go to a premiere tomorrow night." Dan's eyes widens while he shakes his head looking down at Charlie. There's no way he's letting her go to a premiere.
"She's out of her fucking mind." Dan whispers trying not to disturb the calm and relaxing environment.
"Don't you want to know what film it is at least? I was the one who...kinda recommended it." Dan's eyes widen again while Charlie opens her's a little. She smiles at Dan's shocked reaction. Although she knows what he's going to say regardless.
"What film is it then?"
"Doctor Sleep." Dan then looks at her confused. He's never heard of 'Doctor Sleep' before.

Charlie on the other hand smiles, "the Ewan McGregor film..." Dan shrugs with a stupid grin on his face.
"Fucking hell Dan. The premiere is the sequel to The Shining. Because you've been really good to me...and you haven't had any alone time or whatever I thought it would be good if you got to go...without this set back." Charlie laughs a little while pointing to herself.
"You shouldn't of..." Dan then feels bad. He presumed that Charlie would be going with him.
"I should've got you tickets to the IT premiere, you know? I'm sorry about that. But I know how much you adore Kubrick...and this film has several nods towards him." Dan nods his head with a smile. He cannot dent her sweet offer.
"Then you can come back here the day after tomorrow and tell me and Lacey all about it, can't you?" Charlie glides her fingers through Dan's hair. It's getting like how it used to be. Dan hasn't shaved it in months.
"The day after tomorrow?" Dan has been sleeping in the hospital bed with Charlie, despite them not actually living together.
"When you're a film star and go to premieres...you get to go in posh hotel rooms. Nick all the booze in the fridge for me, please." Charlie pats Dan on the chest before winking...only because she cannot stomach alcohol.
"I don't want to leave you alone." But Charlie shrugs.
"I need sleep...and to catch up on all those boring housewives shows that you hate. I'll FaceTime you while you get a suit or whatever." Dan's eyes widen.
"Suit?"
"They're having a big London premiere...so it's fancy." Dan rolls his eyes back before kissing Charlie on top of her head. The only part where it's redeemed 'safe' during chemo.
"Thank you." He whispers with a sympathetic smile.
Charlie would do anything and everything for Dan too...

The Worldforge: Warlock Rising
Abandoned as an orphan, Mar was tested for magic by the Mages of Orelm and was found to possess immense magical potential, but when he grew old enough to start his training he found he was unable to cast so much as a single spell! Embarrassed by their mistake, the mages threw him in the library where he read books and tutored the mage students for a bit of money. All the while, he can’t help but envy the the students who are living the life he had so eagerly awaited. But when an object of great and malevolent power promises to make good on all the promises the mages broke to him Mar is thrust into the world of magic. Mar will find that fate had something more than a life confined to the library planned for him after all. Authors Notes: I consider this to be a comming-of-age Sword and Sorcery story based mostly on the style of classic western fantasies. So if that's your thing then I encourage you to take a peek. Something I want to mention though is that the main character starts of pretty wimpy, and that might not be your thing. That being said, if you stick with him he's got a long way to grow. Also, while this version of the story is meant to be fully readable, more dicerning readers may want to wait until I move out of rough draft phase. There may be some inconsistancies with character and plot while I am still in the rough draft phase. I'm sorry for this, but this is my first web novel and from what I've read the best way to get a good novel out is to write write write, and then edit ruthlessly after you're finished with the book, so that's the plan I'm going to follow. Again, this is a rough draft. Everything you are reading is subject to change, including the name, title, and cover photo. This may no longer be the case once I've decided I know where this fiction is going and I have a reasonable understanding of the characters and their behavior. You're reading what comes off my keyboard as it's made, with very limited editing. There will be mistakes in the text. I do a quick spell check to take out the worst of the errors, but there will be some I miss. You can point them out in the comments if they are particularly confusing or glaring and I will try to fix them, however I am not overly concerned about minor errors as this is not the final draft by any means.
