AT HAKASE'S HOUSE...

"WHAT? Okay I'll go there as fast as I can" Hakase said and he rushed to his car.

AT BEIKA HOSPITAL...

The surgery light blinked. Shiho anxiously rubbed her hand as she paced back and forth in front of the glass door. A hand on her shoulder make jump. She turned around and saw Jodie-sensei.

"I have inform Hakase about the incident. He will arrive shortly. Let's sit or you'll pass out" Jodie-sensei said and they both take a seat.

"Will he be alright? Will he die?" Shiho asked.

" Nothing will go wrong. You probably know Shinichi better than I do. He's strong right?"

"If something happens to him I-I wouldn't be able to live with that" tears spilled down her face.

"Don't say that" Jodie-sensei comforting her.

"Ai-kun,are you all right? Did you get hurt?" Hakase asked after arriving there.

"It's not me. It's Kudo-kun. It's my entire fault. He risked his life for me. I should've been the one that was injured but Kudo-kun took the blow" Shiho covered her face and sobbed loudly.

"Don't cry. We know Shinichi. He's tough. He'll make it. Believe in him. We have to hope" Hakase said while comforting Shiho.

Just then the surgery light blinked off and the glass door opened. The doctor,interns and nurse came out.

"Doctor how is he?" Hakase asked.

"He'll be fine" The doctor answered.

Shiho exhaled loudly in relief. Her knee felt weak and she stumbled back. Luckily Jodie-sensei was behind her.

"Luckily you've bought him here faster. If he had been just a few minutes late he could've die" The doctor said.

"Thank you for saving his life" Hakase said.

"Hakase, can I stay?" Shiho asked.

"You should go home and rest" Jodie-sensei said.

"Please. I want to" she asked.

"Okay. Take care of Shinichi. I'll be back the next morning" Hakase said and he and Jodie-sensei went home leaving Shiho alone in the patient room.

Shiho sat by his bedside. Shinichi's eyes were closed and his face was very pale. Tears welled up in her eyes. She carefully tucked the blanket over Shinichi and grabbed his slightly cold hand. Her eyes searched his face and her bottom lips trembled.

"It's all my fault. I'm so sorry" Shiho leaned his forehead to his hand and silently cried.

Shinichi opened his eyes. He was in darkness. The only light was coming from outside the hallway. He had no idea where he was. He tried to sit up but instantly felt splitting pain in his head. He moaned and touched his bandaged head.

"What happened? Where am I and why does my head hurt so much?" Shinichi asked himself.

The door opened and he looked towards it. Shiho stepped inside with a water jar. Her eyes widened at the sight of him awake.

"Kudo-kun" she quickly ran over.

He had strange look on his face. She worriedly examined his face.

"Are you okay?What's wrong? Do you need something?" Shiho asked but he just stare at her.

A horrible idea come into her mind.

"Don't tell me that you've lose your memory. Kudo-kun,do you remember what happened right?" Shiho asked.

A flashback of the incident entered his mind.

"I remember" Shinichi whispered and Shiho sighed in relief.

"Does Hakase know you were here?" Shinichi asked.

"Yes. He'll back tomorrow. Kudo-kun,why did you save me?" Shiho asked.

"Do you regret me coming to save you?"

"Yes I do. Look at you. You're in the hospital because of me. Look at yourself and tell me that you don't regret it"

"I don't"

"You're lying"

"ENOUGH! If you keep blaming yourself for what happened, you can go back now. I'm fine. The worst thing that could happen to me is something happening to you because I love you"

Shiho's heart melted at his confession words that were thrown at her. Shinichi crossed his arms and scowled but his expression changed instantly when he heard Shiho crying. He sat up, flustered at the unexpected burst of emotions.

"Haibara, stop crying please"

Witout thinking she wrapped her arms around his neck. His eyes widened in surprise.

"I'm sorry. I promise I won't put you in danger. Thank you for being alive.I'm so grateful" Shiho said while crying.

Shinichi could only smiled. He wrapped one arm around her and held her closely.
