[Episode three opens up in the hospital where Mary is on life support and Gabriel is on bed rest in the ICU Jordan walks in to see him as does a bunch of other friends]
Jordan: how are you feeling?
Gabriel: like hell
Jordan: I’m sorry you guys got into an accident
Gabriel: it wasn’t an accident
Jordan: what do you mean?
Gabriel: I mean we were ran off the road and the car flipped, we didn’t dodge to miss a deer or whatever bullshit that people are saying
Jordan: people say a lot of things that don’t make much sense I guess
Gabriel: like what else?
Jordan: I don’t want to talk about it right now you need rest not stress, anyway I gotta leave to go to work I just wanted to see you and make sure your okay
Gabriel: wait come back here
[Jordan exits]
Gabriel: well that sucked
[montage moment of people coming in and out of the room visiting nurses and doctors friends and relatives etc, montage ends with Gabriel sleeping he wakes up and turns to the chair beside him where his mom was sitting and she’s not there then the door opens he looks up expecting a parent and Andrew walks in]
Andrew: did I wake you?
Gabriel: no I was up, what are you doing here?
Andrew: I came to see you
Gabriel: I didn’t think you would ever come
Andrew: I didn’t want to come with everyone else I wanted to see you one on one, everyone else would just spoil it
Gabriel: even after I ran away you come to see me?
Andrew: you were right, you do mean more to me than just a physical attraction …..I think I might love you, when you left I was humiliated and destroyed and it hurt so bad and I was going to write you off and move on, but when I heard you had gotten into an accident and I didn’t know if you were alright I didn’t know if you were even alive and my world fell apart and it hurt me more than anything ever I don’t even think I cried that hard when my grandmother died
Gabriel: Andrew I ..
Andrew: let me finish, the time I spend with you may seem fleeting to everyone else but to me it’s a reason to live, I wasn’t happy with being what everyone else wanted, and you saw the real me and you accepted me even though I pushed you away and did everything I could to deny what I felt and who I was and I hurt you so much, and I don’t ever want to do that again, I would have never came out if it wasn’t for you, and although im not all the way there and its going to be a challenge and a process and journey im going to get there, and last night was a big step, and I know I cant do it alone, and I just, I want to be your everything because your everything to me.
[three beat silence]
Gabriel: that was beautiful
[Andrew get up]
Andrew: ill be back later I just wanted to get that off my chest, no matter what happens even if we can only be friends because of the things ive done I don’t ever want to lose you
Gabriel: where are you going
Andrew: home I suppose
Gabriel: stay with me
Andrew: I don’t want you to do this because you feel obligated and I don’t want you to regret tonight later
Gabriel: I want you to, I really do …. I still love you, I think I always have I’m just so confused because of everything but I want you to stay here with me, I don’t want to be alone
[his mom enters and Andrew is passed out in the bed with Gabriel whos head is rested on his chest asleep, she smiles and closes the door blackout/ storyline change]
[opening back up on Mary’s hospital room she is on life support the doctors are looking over her chart, Gabriels mother comes in the doctor stops her and has a talk with her]
Audrey: hows she doing doctor?
Doctor: no change
Audrey: any luck getting in touch with her parents
Doctor: no, and since you’re the only adult around who has a child that was involved with the accident and she has no spouse, for the time being you have power of attourney
Audrey: that’s a lot of weight
Doctor: were not seeing any change in her condition I think its time to go ahead and
Audrey: you cant be serious, if you mean what I think you mean
Doctor: we need to go ahead and make a decision soon because the hospital isn’t equipped to maintain someone for more than thirty days
Audrey: I think its best that we wait for as long as we can, her parents may show up and I wont be responsible for killing someone elses child.but in the mean time you do everything you can to give her the best possible chance of surviving this
[blackout/storyline change]
