Mask's PoV -

     Army is cooking dinner for us but I'm not hungry. I lay on Skull's lap as he watches TV but I can't stop coughing. Recently, my coughing and wheezing has been getting worse. I've felt like shit for the past few months and I can't figure out why. I sit up from Skull's lap. The moment I sit up I start wheezing again. Skull rubs my back, "Mask, you okay, love?"

     I manage to choke out, "I'm fiiinnnee."

     "You are not okay, Mask, you're coughing has gotten so much worse. We're worried about you," Army states from the kitchen doorway.

     Army looks so cute when he cooks for us, he wears a pink apron that says "kiss the cook" that Aloha bought for him. "I'm ooookay... it's just my hay fever, probably. Hyuk." I reply, "I'm tired, I'm going to beeeeeddddd."

     "Mask, you need to eat. You haven't eaten all day," Army complains.

      I start coughing again, "Noootttt hungry." I choke out as I start to walk upstairs towards our bedroom.

     I have to take a break halfway up the stairs to catch my breath before continuing. Once inside our master bedroom, where all of us sleep, I slowly change into my pajamas being careful not to get out of breath and restart my wheezing. I slip into bed, finding my spot. Maybe my boyfriends are right. Maybe I really am sick with more than my allergies and asthma.

     I must have fallen asleep as I'm woken by a knock at the door. Aloha enters seconds later carrying a bowl of curry and rice. "Mask, Army said you need to eat," Aloha announces as he tries to hand me the bowl.

    "Nooooo, I'm too tired and I'm nooottt hungry," I complain, refusing to take the bowl.

     Aloha sits next to me on our bed. "Mask, please eat something. Even just a few bites. I'll feed you."

     "Fine, hyuk." I take off my mask and open my mouth.

     Aloha feeds me a small spoonful of curry. As always Army's cooking is delicious but the curry burns my sore and itchy throat as I swallow. "Is that enough, Aloooohhhha? It hurts my throat." I ask.

     Aloha looks at me concerned. "You're really not hungry?"

     I shake my head.

     "Okay, you can be done. Let me know if you want more later. I'll put it in the fridge for you." Aloha stands and gives me a quick peck on the lips before leaving with the curry.

     I settle back down into bed. I just feel so tired. I close my eyes trying to fall back asleep. A few hours later my lovers quietly sneak into the bedroom trying not to wake me. Skull and Army lay next to me with Aloha on the far side of the bed next to Army. I snuggle into their warmth. "I loooovvvve you guys," I cooe to my boyfriends.

     A chorus of "I love you too, Mask" echos through our darkened bedroom.

     I nuzzle into Skull's neck and I can feel Army's arms wrap around me. I feel warm and loved.

———

     "It's time, Mask." A voice echos from a white void where I find myself.

     What is this place? I stand from my spot where I lay on a pure white floor. My already incredibly pale skin looks paler than usual. I no longer feel the awful pain in my chest or the coughing and shortness of breath. I feel great... but why.
