Sulu groaned and leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees and putting his head in his hands. This was ridiculous. Ianto was trying to dig himself out of a hole that he was instead only making worse. Trying to keep from lying to him? Sulu couldn't believe he'd think he needed to lie at all. What did he think Sulu would do?

He had no way of knowing what Ianto had been thinking and that just made it hurt more. Some things, all right, Sulu could handle not being told some things. But this was - this was Ianto's health. The one thing Sulu cared about more than anything else this past month, and Ianto was lying to him about it.

With a quiet, strangled noise, Sulu found his voice and said, "I can't believe this. I can't believe you. Why in the hell did you not tell me? We could have been doing something about this!"
