slaps Pearson hard across the face You think I'm gonna let some random person walk in here? Unlocked or not, it's my job to protect this house!

pauses the music, takes a deep breath Pearson, there's something I need to tell you. Something I've been keeping from you for a while now.
takes Pearson's hands in his I... I've been keeping this secret because I didn't want to burden you, but... I'm struggling with some serious health issues.
looks down, voice trembling It's... it's cancer. I've been diagnosed with cancer, Pearson.
her eyes widen in shock Oh my god, Derek... Are you serious?
nods, tears streaming down his face I am serious, Pearson. I didn't want to worry you, but I can't keep this a secret anymore.

smiles faintly, watching Derek sweep You're so full of energy, Derek. It's infectious.
stops sweeping and turns to Pearson Thank you, Pearson. Your words mean a lot to me. pauses You know, life is full of ups and downs, twists and turns.
nods Yeah, it really is. But through it all, we stick together, right?
