Scott opened his droopy eyes from his long slumber.

There was a piercing pain in his back.

His body was so weak that it was hard to even move a finger.

He felt a light weight on his chest.

Scott looked down to see Mitch's head resting near his collarbone.

His arms were wrapped around Scott's torso.

"I'm happy Dr. Monson let Mitch spend the night."

Memories flew back from last night, replaying Mitch's speech in his head.

He was happy that Mitch was getting physically better.

But his mental state... not so much.

Scott felt pity for him but he knew that was what Mitch hated.

Mitch didn't want anyone to feel bad for him.

Scott looked to the clock above the door.

8:30 am.

"Hey mitchie.." Scott whispered, looking at the sleeping angel in his arms.

"Mitchie, it's time to wake up..."

Mitch groaned and cuddled closer into Scott.

Scott giggled and leaned his head towards Mitch's ear.

Scott was about to whisper another "wake up" when he decided to have a little laugh.

"MITCHIE!!!"

Mitch screamed and sat up.

His eyes fluttered rapidly, looking around the room.

Mitch's eyes landed on Scott laughing, his face red.

Mitch's fear was immediately replaced with relief. He giggled a bit and stood up.

"I'm sorry, Mitch. But that was too good! HAHA."

Mitch smiled at Scott, this was the first time he's seen Scott laugh so hard in a while.

"Well I'm glad that I make you laugh."

Scott calmed down a bit and smiled at Mitch.

"Do you want some breakfast Mitch?"

"Sure, but I have a little request."

Scott nodded as Mitch leaned down to Scott's ear.

"AAHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Scott jumped as Mitch bursted with laughter.

Scott smiled at Mitch. An actual laugh was leaving his boyfriends lips.

"Oh my gosh Scott. Your face!! Haha!"

Mitch started calming down as he left to go get breakfast from the cafeteria.

As he walked down the hallway, he walked through the waiting room.

Mitch looked at all the chairs, noticing that three of them were taken....

By Avi, Kevin, and Kirstie.

Mitch didn't want to face them. Not now.

Mitch quickly tried to rush through into the cafeteria until Avi noticed him.

"Hey Mitch!"

He stopped in his tracks and sighed.

"Hi," he said, turning around and walking towards them.

Avi and Kevin wore big smiles while Kirstie couldn't even look into Mitch's eyes.

Mitch noticed immediately.
