I woke up very disorientated, an excruciating pain in my left wrist. I looked around, white walls surrounded me. Was this heaven? It can't be. A women walked into the room carrying a clipboard, a cup of water and a few pills.

"Oh Mr Deyes you're awake" she spoke.

"Where am i?" I asked still taking in my surroundings.

"You're in hospital Mr Deyes, do you remember what happened to you?"

I recalled the events that unfolded in my mind. I got drunk, smashed the bottle, slit my wrist and...and...Zoe, i called Zoe.

"Zoe, where's Zoe?!"

"Erm there's a young girl sat in the waiting room, i'm unsure of her name though"

"Am i allowed visitors?"

"After you take these pills, they will help with the pain"

I took the pills from the tray and put them in my mouth. The nurse handed me the cup of water, i took a sip and swallowed both pills first time.

"Can you tell the girl i want to see her please"

"Ok, if you need anything just press the buzzer"

She left the room quietly leaving me sat hoping that the girl in the waiting room was Zoe. I had so many questions to ask her. Was she still mad at me? Had she forgiven me? What happened after i left her? My thoughts were interrupted by a brown haired blue eyed beautiful girl. My lips formed a smile as i saw the familiar face of Zoe standing in the door way.

"Zoe" i whispered.

"Alfie" she whispered back.

I held out my arms and she ran towards me. I engulfed her in the best hug of my life. I missed her so much. How could i have put her through this pain.

"I'm sorry" i cried.

"Why are you sorry? You haven't done anything wrong" she wiped the tears from my cheeks.

"I'm sorry for everything i've ever done to upset you and i know you will never forgive me but i truly am sorry"

"Oh Alf, of course i forgive you. I should be the one asking for forgiveness, i ruined everything we had"

"No lets just forget everything and start again"

"Ok that's sounds good"

We both started leaning in towards each other, slowly. I looked between her eyes and her lips. This is what i've been waiting for. Her soft, delicate lips touched mine, it was amazing. We pulled away from each other, a grin plastered on both of our faces.

"I missed you" i smiled.

"I missed you too"

We sat in silence for a while, it was a good type of silence, not awkward at all. Zoe circled my wounded wrist carefully with her thumb. I was so stupid, why would i do that to myself? I could have lost Zoe forever. I removed those thoughts from my mind and enjoyed Zoe's company. I couldn't stop smiling as i remembered each and every kiss we had shared.

The nurse returned later on with another male who i didn't recognise. She told me he was a councillor and that he wanted to have 'a little chat' with me. Oh great everyone thinks i'm a suicidal maniac.
