As you are caught in your "moment", you hear the door open. "I've just come to...oh my" says the nurse as she walks in and smiles. "I didn't mean to interupt you, but I need to check up on Jack especially now that he is awake"
Melody reluctantly breaks away from you. "I'll see you in a bit" She says as she heads for the door, turning round to wink and mouths:
'I'm not through with you yet' as she leaves.
"Well, it seems you're happy" Says the nurse, chuckling as she checks your pulse.
"Well you seem awake and alert again. We'll probably keep you in for a couple of hours and then let you go" She says as she flashes the light in your eyes and writes a note on the clipboard she is carrying.
"Melody told me everything, you know...what happened, I mean...you are a lovely man to do that for her...she never left your side while you were out."
You feel the love you have for Melody flutter in your chest as you hear the story and about her never leaving you...
A couple of hours pass, and the doctors finally give you the okay to leave and Melody waits for you outside with a smile.
"I've called a taxi" she says as you sit next to her. "Thank you again Jack...I don't know what would've happened if it wasn't for you" She says as she rests her head on your shoulder. "Keith wouldn't have done that for me...he would've done it to show everyone that I was 'his'...and would have made me beg for a reward."
Any doubts you had about attacking Keith just flew out the window as you hug her tightly to you.
"Jack?"
"Yes Melody?"
"Could you do me a favour?"
"What is it?..."
