Hannah got up and kissed him on the lips and stared at him.

Hannah Beth: Get some rest. I'll be outside if you need me.

Hannah Beth: I can't exactly sleep at a hospital but i'll try.

Hannah Beth: I'll be back tomorrow. Don't go anywhere now. (Laughs)

Hannah Beth: Alright. I love you and see you tomorrow.

She walked out of the room and started making her way to the front to leave.

The scene is a dull hospital corridor. It could be any hospital corridor in the world. But this hospital corridor is currently occupied by a death metal icon. Scott H, formerly of Blood of Wecz, sits under a sign, it reads "waiting area". His hair is pulled into a loose ponytail and he is unshaven, bleary eyes look devoid of sleep. His bowed head rises as the footsteps of a nurse come sounding down the corridor.

Nurse: Excuse me, sir. It's visiting time...you can go in now.

Scott H stands up and walks towards the door of a private room. He lifts flowers from the vacant seat beside him, and then turns the door handle, sighs audibly, and walks into the room.

As Scott H walked in and closed the door behind him, he sighed, because he knew that he shouldn't be here, Raven wouldn't really want to see him. His head bowed, he didn't even see her smile at him as he walked to the seat furthest from the bed. He thought that was for the best.

Raven: hi there, stranger.

Scott kept his head down. He felt ashamed to be here, after how he had treated her. Without looking up, he spoke. "I brought you some flowers", he said...placing them onto the foot of her bed, be felt the pain in his heart growing, it was hard to be here knowing what had happened, and he knew she didn't want him there.

Solemnly, he continued to look at the floor.

Scott sat almost motionless on the furthest chair from Raven's hospital bed. One arm rested on his lap, whilst the other elbow sat on his knee, the hand propping his head up, although he still couldn't look at Raven. He loved her so much, and if he looked at her, and didn't see that same emotion in her eyes, he knew it would be like a dagger through his heart.

He wanted to speak, to tell her how sorry he was. Sitting in silence for what seemed like an hour, he finally plucked up the courage to speak. As he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Raven,

"I'm sorry," came the voice from the bed, shocking him. Why was she sorry? "I was stupid. I shouldn't have let you go." Scott wanted to scold her for being sorry. She had done nothing wrong, it was all his doing. He looked up for a second, and saw that she was looking away from him as she spoke. But he saw it, the tear in her eye, and his heart sank. He had done this to her, he had made her cry.

Kamikaze Kate's words rang in his head. She had told him to be honest, but not yet. However, he knew that honesty would be all he could give her here tonight. He stood very quickly, and walked to the glass window, looking out over the gardens. He stood with his hands behind his back, legs parted, and tried to speak.

"Raven...I feel I have to tell you this. I'm not saying it to be horrible, or to hurt you, but because I feel it has to be said if there's ever going to be any chance...or even if there's not...I don't know how you feel on that..." he could feel his own tears welling up, but knew he had to push on. He reached a hand up and wiped his eyes, still facing the window.

"Since...well you know, what happened on Monday, I kind of turned into my old self. The Scott H who was in Blood of Wecz. I didn't mean to, and I regret it every time I think of you. But I did it, and I want to be open, so I don't want to hide anything from you. I slept with a girl on Monday night. And another one last night."

He waited for a reaction from her, and let it sink in.

"I am truly sorry Raven....I can't tell you how sorry. But I'll leave now if you want me to go."

He had thought that a confession would make him feel better. As if all the deceit he had felt would wash away as soon as she knew. But it didn't. His guilt grew even more as the last word emanated from his mouth. How could he have done this to her? Why did he do this to her? He felt so bad he almost asked himself to leave. But he waited for her words, the words that would tell him this was all over. He knew that she wold never want to see him again.

"I can't say I'm not shocked, that wasn't what I expected, but you were - are a free man, I don't control you," he heard her soft voice from the bed behind him, and he winced as she spoke. This made him feel even worse. Why wasn't she mad? He wanted her to lash out, and be mad at him, and then he could feel better, feel that he had gotten what he deserved. She spoke again as he stood with his eyes tightly shut, trying to stave off tears. "Besides, you thought I was sleeping with Joshy because he carried me upstairs, what were you supposed to do?"

What he was supposed to do was believe her when she told him what had really happened. Not ran off and fucked two meaningless, random groupies.

"I'll let you know that you can leave me, that's your choice, but I'd better let you know what I want first." He didn't want to leave Raven, not ever, but every word she said made him feel more guilty than the last, but he knew deserved it. What happened next, he knew he did not deserve. He raised a hand to his forehead and drew it straight down his face, slowly, knowing that the stress was beginning to show.

As he put his hand back behind his back to clasp it with the other once again, still intently looking away from the woman he knew was about to throw him out of the hospital room, he felt someone grab it. He froze stock still as he felt something wrap around his finger.

"I want you to marry me." came the voice of Raven Storme once again. The tears started to roll down his face immediately. After all he had done to her these past few weeks, all he had said, all of the threats that he would leave her, the cheating, the nasty words, she still wanted to marry him. He fought to hide the tears, and then at once realised that he shouldn't.

He turned to face Raven, tears flowing down his cheeks, and attempted to smile at her. He looked down at his hand and saw a small piece of bandage wrapped around his finger. He clutched Raven's hand and kissed it softly. "I'm so sorry for everything I've done," he said with a sincerity that he had never heard in his own voice before. "I love you Raven, and I want to marry you too."

He pulled her hand into his chest, and tried to stop the tears...a man shouldn't be crying should he? He looked at her, and he knew all at once that this was the only woman for him. He kicked off his checkered vans shoes, and for some reason, climbed up beside her on the bed. He kissed her on the forehead softly, and then wrapped his arms around her, before sobbing happily into her shoulder.

Mandy walks to the door and looks through the peep whole and unlocks the door and opens it

Mandy: (smiles) Hey

Mandy: (smiles) Yeah but can you tell me where we are going now? (laughs a little)
