"I don't get it...she has been acting fine when I've seen her." Peter says after being informed about Carlas Kidney faliure.
"She never said a thing" Daniel replies in shock.
After Carla had collapsed in the rovers just over as hour ago peter presumed she was drunk, after Roy abruptedly defended Carla and followed her into the ambulance, the whole pub was shell- shocked to the news.
"I mean kidney faliure? So many people die of that..." Daniel speaks to himself.
"Don't say that Daniel." Peter snaps.
"Why are you so concerned peter, she isn't your problem anymore?!" Toyah overhears.
"We have a past. Just because we aren't together anymore doesn't mean I don't care about her"
"Ugh you know what I'm going for a meeting..." peter adds walking out of the rovers as toyah and Daniel give eachother a weary look.
As Carla lay in her uncomfortable bed in the hospital room, connected to all these wires she thought about what her life had actually come too.
Roy had gone back to their home to pick up some clothes for her as she was told she was staying overnight.
Aiden was having a talk with the doctor about a possible donation, Kate was with Rana sorting out all there problems and Johnny and Michelle had gone to get some bits to eat.
Carla was staring to the side tiredly until she noticed a figure in the window looking at her cautiously.
She gave the figure a funny confused look.
'Shit' he thought 'I have to go in now'
"Peter what are you doing here?" Carla croakily asks him whilst he walks through the doors nervously.
"I just wanted to check how you were...you did collapse in my pub." He responds.
"Yeah, sorry about that."
"Don't worry about it, wasn't your fault. Did they um- tell you what was wrong?" He asks although already knowing the answer.
"Yeah um just anemic." Carla lies.
"Is that it? Because I was told something on the lines of kidney faliure" he says sitting down at her bedside.
Carla looks down. Trying not to show her weakness to her former lover.
"Car you don't need to be afraid to cry. It's me remember" he softly says.
"Yeah...yeah sorry." She mutters.
"Don't be sorry love"
There was now an awkward silence. No one having the guts to say something that would be out of character.
Carla thought about how peter was acting like the old peter she loved all those years ago.
Forgetting about Tina, toyah she couldn't help but get a tingly feeling as she looked up.
And he felt the same...
"We had some good times you and me..." he breaks the silence.
"Mmm...shame it's gone to waste, like my life." She murmurs.
"What? Carla your not wasting your life"
He sighs; "you'll be fine, you always are" he reassures her as his hand goes into contact with her arm and their hearts both flutter.
"It's chronic peter. I'm dying." She bluntly replies.
"Can't you get a transplant?"
"Yeah Aiden has offered. I just feel so bad this isn't right peter." Carla says getting teary.
"Aw I didn't mean to make you cry. Come here..." he says standing up and gently hugging her.
"I don't want to die peter. I don't want to die" she sobs into his shoulder.
"And your not going to die Carla, I won't let that happen."
For a moment it was as if they were still together.
"I love you Carla, so much. Keep fighting" he whispers and she hears...
I had to right about this!! I'm loving Carlas storyline so much right now, although it feels to me as if corrie producers and cutting it off a bit. Next week, Carla is collapsing in the pub and peter is involved. This is just my take on what could happen!! Once again, sorry for any grammar mistakes theirs bound to be loads.
