Lee was at home going mad. "Where is she" Lee thought as he paced the room. He was fed up with it, she always complained that he was never home, but when he did make the effort she was never in. "I would be better off without her" Lee thought. His thinking was interrupted by the phone ringing. He goes and answers it.

Lee: Hi

H: Hi Lee. Something terrible has happened.

Lee: Slow down mate. Now what is it?

H: It's Claire she's *starts to cry*

Lee: She's what?

H: In intensive care in a coma. She stopped breathing and the doctors were going to give up on her but I begged them not to. Now she can't breathe on her own.

Lee: Oh my god, I'll be straight there.

H: Ok please hurry, I don't know how long she has.

H puts down the phone and looks at Claire who is lying perfectly still. She would of looked peaceful if it wasn't for all of the tubes coming out of her body.

H: Oh well I've rung Faye and Lee just Lisa to ring now ok.

Suddenly the machine skipped a beat then returned to normal but as soon as H said "I'm going to ring Lisa" it happened again.

H decided to call a nurse and go outside to call Lisa.

Lisa was in the shower when she heard the phone ringing. She jumped out from the shower and fell but got up quickly. "I've got to get to that phone it could be him." thought Lisa.

When she answered the phone she was so happy when she heard his sweet voice on the phone.

H: Lisa?

Lisa: Hi babe.

H: Don't you dare call me that, I'm ringing to tell you to get down the hospital now.

Lisa: Why *Lisa pretends she has no idea what he was going to say *

H: Claire's in intensive care you've got to come down now.

Lisa: No H, she won't want me there.

H: Don't argue with me just get here.

Lisa had no time to react as H had already hung up. She decided that she would go but only for H's sake, anyway what he didn't know couldn't hurt him.

When Lisa walked into the hospital room she was surprised to see that Faye and Lee weren't there.

Lisa: H?

H looked up, his tear stained face made Lisa wish she wasn't there.

H: Lise, What happened to her?

Lisa: HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW.

H begins to cry.

Lisa: I'm sorry I didn't mean it.

Faye and Lee enter the room.

Faye: I thought Claire was on holiday.

H: No

Faye turns to Lisa who is looking rather edgy and Faye can tell that she is feeling very uneasy.

Faye: Lisa why did you tell me Claire was on holiday?

Lisa: Um........well......I............um.

H: Lisa came on to me that's why.

Lisa: H!!!!!!!!

Lee: You did what?

Faye: That was stupid wasn't it.

H: So come on Lisa why is Claire in this state?

Lisa: You think I done this?

Lee: I don't know about H but I do.

Lisa: H?

H wasn't listening anymore. He was sitting down holding Claire's hand again.
Faye walks over to him and puts her arms around him.

H: Thanks for coming guys. I know Claire would really appreciate it.

Faye: Hey what are friends for.

H smiles but it soon fades when he catches a glimpse of Claire out of the corner of his eye. He thought about how pale and dead looking she looked.

H: Please Lisa tell me if you know something.

Lisa: We had an argument that was it I didn't touch her. *starts to cry*

H cuddles her, of course this is exactly what Lisa wanted, she couldn't believe she was getting away with it.

They all sat in silence after that. The hospital ward was very quite except from the occasional nurse which came in to check on Claire.
Lee suddenly broke the silence rather loudly.

Lee: She moved, her eyelids just fluttered.

Faye: No they didn't.

Lee: Yeah they did, look she done it again.

H: Don't get my hopes up Lee, She hasn't moved I would of noticed.

Had Claire moved or not? Lee was adamant that she had but the others seriously disagreed. They debated this for most of the night.
