"Nico, he'll be fine!" Peri tried her hardest to calm her best friend down.

"Yeah, he's in the hospital, it's the best place for him right now." Tom looked, feeling completely useless.

"I should be there with him, not stuck in this stupid, tiny flat!" Nico sighed.

Tom and Peri looked at each other.

"Come on then. We'll go." Peri said.

Tom nodded. "Come on."

The three teenagers walked out of the flat, and made their way to the hospital.

When they entered, Peri spotted Leela being wheeled through. "Mum!"

Nico looked. "You two go, I'll find Dylan."

Tom nodded and walked with Peri to where Leela was being taken. Nico looked around her and ran over to S'Avage. "Where's Dylan? Is he ok?"

Charles put his hand on her shoulder. "Nico calm down. There's no need to panic, he's going to be fine. He needs surgery but he's stable."

Nico nodded, taking deep breaths to try and calm herself. "Can I see him?"

Charles looked at her. "Very well. He shouldn't be having visitors right now, but I have a feeling you'll go to him with or without my permission." He lead her to the room Dylan was in.

Dylan, who was talking to Trevor, looked, and smiled a little at the sight of Nico.

Trevor stopped mid-sentence and looked behind him. "I'll leave you to it." He said and left the room.

"I know you like your dresses but this..?" Nico joked.

"Bit much?" Dylan smirked.

Nico couldn't help but laugh. She walked over to him and hugged him. "Don't ever leave me."

"I won't, I promise." He hugged back. He'd only seen her just a few hours before, he didn't think he would miss her so much already.

"Peri and Tom wanted to come with me but we saw Leela come in.." Nico said.

Dylan looked. "What? She was caught up in it?"

Nico shrugged. "I don't know... It looks like it." She said. She wanted to be angry that he'd put himself in danger, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. She was just so relieved he was alright, when she could have been talking to his corpse.

"I couldn't leave Esther." He spoke, as though hearing what she was thinking. "I know it was stupid, but Curtis wouldn't have known her if I didn't."

She smiled. This was the old Dylan she loved so much.

Lindsey entered the room. "We have to get you prepped for surgery now, Dylan."

He rolled his eyes. "Ok."

Nico looked at him. She didn't want to leave him after almost losing him.

"Go find Peri." Dylan looked at her.

She nodded and the two shared a kiss, before Nico got up and left the room.

Lindsey had stood, watching the scene with a smile on her face. She remembered only vaguely what it felt like to be young and so in love. She watched as Nico left, only to give a warning look to her sister who was about to approach. Satisfied that Kim was walking away, she then turned to Dylan.

Nico found Peri in the waiting area. "Is she ok?"

"Bit deaf for a bit... Apparently she was close to the explosion." Peri looked.

Nico hugged her. "Well least she's ok."

"And Dylan?"

"He's ok. He needs an operation.. Dunno what for though..." Nico said, looking back down the corridor, wanting to be with him.
