'How is she?' Shane rushed up to the doctor as soon as he saw him walk into the lonely waiting room. It had been 4 hours. 4 hours that felt like 12 weeks. It was impossible to live while he knew that Mitchie was in trouble. He hadn't eaten, he hadn't drunk. Hell, he hadn't even slept! He just sat there, clutching onto the letter that he had found with Mitchie when he saw her by the pond. Nate and Caitlyn had stayed with him mostly, only leaving to eat and sleep. They were with him right now, just as anxious as Shane was to find out about Mitchie's condition.

'Not much better. We're preparing her for surgery now. But that's why I'm here. I need you to sign some forms in case…well in case she doesn't make it.' The doctor explained.

Shane's eyes started watering, but he held back the tears. 'What surgery?'

'Mitchie has internal bleeding. Possibly from beatings, she was in a pretty bad state when you found her?!' The doctor hinted. Shane didn't take the hint. He nodded.

'Where do I sign?' The doctor handed him a form and left. Shane walked back over to a seat next to Nate.

'Dude, are you OK?' He had been whispering to Caitlyn while the doctor was talking.

Shane looked up to see that Caitlyn was crying. 'You hit her? Shane?! How could you!' She screamed.

'What? No! I would never hurt her!'

'Well, that's kind of what the doctor was implying man?' Nate added. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to support Caitlyn, but Shane was his best friend! He didn't think that Shane would ever hit Mitchie.

Shane didn't reply. He looked back down to his form and started writing messily.

A few minutes later the doctor came back. Shane dropped the form and stormed over to him. He grabbed him by the collar.

'I would NEVER hit Mitchie! I love her!' He threatened.

'That's…that's not what I was implying! I never believed that you could have hurt her! I was just saying that someone had hurt her!' The doctor managed to stutter out, while Nate let go of Caitlyn and ran over to Shane.

'Let him go! You're not exactly helping your case are you?' Nate screamed. Shane slowly released his grip.

'Sorry…about that…' Shane mumbled. He walked back over to his seat and out his head in his hands.

'It's fine, actually, Mitchie's nearly ready for surgery, so I was wondering if you had finished with the form?' Shane didn't move. Nate walked over and picked up the form.

The doctor was leaving when Shane looked up. 'Can I see her?' He shouted, 'I mean…can I see her before she goes into surgery?'

The doctor hesitated. 'Sure, this way please.' Shane dropped the letter and ran up to the doctor.

Nate wondered back over to Caitlyn.

'Should we go with them?' Caitlyn wondered aloud.

'I think they need to be alone.'

'True…' Caitlyn's eyes wondered over to the piece of paper that Shane had left on the seat.

'Nate, pass me that.' Caitlyn asked. He looked over to what she was looking at and passed her the note.

Shane,

It's not your fault. But forget about me. Go live your own life. I was just holding you back.

Mitchie.
