A/N: HEY Y'ALL!! So, you guys might think the title of this sounds familiar because I've already posted this story once. But, it was so MESSY and I have fixed this story up. It's nothing like the first time I posted it so, it's not like y'all are re-reading it. ENJOY!!

Mitch had to run some errands this evening so, while he is gone Scott decided to surprise Mitch by cooking his favorite meal. Mitch's favorite dish is, chicken and veggies. He is going to be gone for an hour or so, so that gives Scott enough time to cook it before Mitch gets home. The first thing that Scott did, was lay out all the ingredients that he needed.

"Okay, so I've got the veggies, chicken, and oil. What's next?"

Scott questioned to himself while looking in the cookbook

"Now I need to cut up all the veggies."

This is where everything went wrong, Scott had already chopped the first tomato now he was doing the second one. while he was chopping, his finger accidently got in the way. He completely sliced 3 of this fingers, and blood just starting pouring every where.

"Meow!"

"AHHH! OUCH!!"

Scott wrapped up his bleeding fingers, in a wash cloth and went to find his phone. He was contemplating on calling 911 or Mitch. But, he quickly decided to call his best friend instead. He quickly dialed Mitch's phone number and hit call, after a few rings Mitch answered.

M:"Hey Scotty! What's up?!"

S: "A-A-Are you heading home n-now?"

M: "No, not yet. I've still got a few more things to do, Scotty. Why should I be heading home? Is something wrong?"

S: "I-I-I was cooking dinner for us, and I cut my fingers with the knife."

M: "Did you cut it really bad? Why are you so calm?!!"

S: " It's really bad!! Mitchy, I'm starting to feel a little bit dizzy and sick."

M:"Scott listen to me, you need to sit down before you pass out. Okay?"

 S: "O-Okay, are you on your way home?"

M:"Yes, I will be there in Like 5 minutes. Are you feeling alright Scotty?"

 S: "U-Um I d-d-don't think so...."

M: "Scott? HELLO SCOTTY?! HELLO?"

Mitch heard a crash, and that first he didn't know what to think. Then, he soon realized that Scott had passed out. Which caused him drive over the speed limit but at the moment he didn't care at all. Mitch decided the best thing to do, would be to hang up on Scott, and call 911.

O: "911 what you emergency?"

M: "My friend just cut his fingers open, he needs help!"

 O: "Okay, how is he now? Is the wound still bleeding??"

 M: "I don't know, I'm not with him. I'm driving to our house now."

 O: "Okay Ma'am, I need you to Describe his mental status to me."

Mitch rolled his eyes but, he wasn't going to correct her

M: "He passed out a few minutes ago."

 O: "Does the patient have any medical problems, that you know of?"

M: "Just scoliosis."

 O: "What is the patient's name?"

 M: "Scott Hoying."

 O: "What's the address, for the location?"

Mitch gave it to her very quickly

O:"We are sending an ambulance out now."

M: "Okay, that good"

O: "The ambulance is on it's way to your home so, I will go ahead and hang up now."

M: "That's fine, bye."

Mitch pulls into his driveway, and quickly runs inside. He walks into the kitchen to see Scott passed out, and laying in his own puddle of blood. Mitch went over to his motionless body. He tries to wake Scott up.

"Scotty, come on, wake up for me."

Mitch coaxing doesn't do any good, Scott is still out cold. But thankfully, Mitch can hear the sirens in the distance getting closer. Then a few minutes later, the paramedics were knocking on the door so he quickly let them inside.

"Is he going to be alright?"

Mitch asked one of the paramedics, who was attaching wires onto Scott

"Oh yes, he should regain consciousness any second now. We are going to have to take him to the hospital to get at least like 10-8 stiches, though."

"Can I ride with him?"

"Yes."

"Okay, thank you."

Scott is still not moving or talking but, he can hear everything that is going on around him. The sound of people he didn't recognize, his heartbeat pulsing through his ear, and the agonizing pain that he was in. The only voice he could recognize was Mitch's. However, it wasn't his happy normal voice instead it was panicked and full of worry. 

"Isn't he supposed to be awake, now"

Scott's eyes began to flutter open the first thing he saw was Mitch who, was talking with a paramedic. When Mitch realized that Scott was awake he rushed over to him, with some relief.

"Oh, he's awake. He's awake!! It's okay, you are just fine."

"W-What?? Mitchy, w-e-what happened?"

"I don't know how but, you cut your hand pretty bad."

A paramedic came up to Scott to ask him a few questions

"Sir, can you rate the pain that you are in from 1-10?"

 "like an 8."

"Okay, we are  going to take you to the hospital now."

Before you know it he was rolled out the front door, and into the ambulance. Mitch was right there next to him, holding his hand and telling him everything would be completely fine. The paramedics decided, to give him an IV for the pain.

"Sir, you are going to feel a pinch and a burn."

"Okay."

At The Hospital

When they reached the hospital, Scott was no longer in pain. However, that wouldn't last for long because he was going to have to get about twenty stiches. 

"Oh god, I don't want stiches."

"Scotty, It's going to all be fine. I'll be right here, promise."

Mitch thought he could stay in the room with Scott but, he was he was screaming at the top of his lungs and sobbing. This was from all the pain he was having, and Mitch couldn't take all the crying so he had to leave the room. Scott was begging him to stay but, he just can't. 

"Ow!! Ow!!! M-Mitchy, where are you g-g-going?!"

"Scott, I'm going to go sit in the waiting room and I will come back after. If I stay here any longer I'm going to pass out or have panic attack. I can't see you in pain like this but, I'll be back."

Mitch said as he let the room, and sat down in the waiting room. Even out there he could hear crying coming from Scott. It was absolutely heart breaking but, he had to have stiches. 

After Getting The Stiches

Once Scott was done getting stiches, Mitch went back into his hospital room. Scott seemed to be doing better, he had a smile on his face. When he entered the room, Scott had his arms open for a big hug from Mitch.

"Mitchy!"

"Hi Scotty, how are you feeling?"

"I feel okay. But, it's just because they gave me a pain reliever."

"Well, I'm glad that you are feeling better."

"Me too!! The doctor said I could go home, right after the nurse come in."

"Oh, okay."

20 Minutes Later

"Hi, I'm Scott's nurse."

"Okay, what do I need to do for his cut?"

"He can't get it wet for the next 24 hours, then he can start to clean it. Scott needs to wash it a lot because it will become crusty and it could leave a scar if he doesn't clean it correctly."

"Is there anything else I need to know?"

"Yes, until the stiches are out he can't scratch it, swim, and he can't do contact sports. Bring him back here if he is in pain, there is redness around the wound, and if he has a fever."

"When does he get them out?"

"In about 2-3 weeks."

"Okay, gotcha."

The nurse handed Scott a clipbord and a pin

"Go ahead and sign there and right there."

Scott signed the discharge papers, and the nurse took them. They would be able to leave in about 20 minutes, and Mitch realized he doesn't know why all of this happened.

"Scott?"

"Yeah, Mitchy??"

"How did this happen?? Like what were you trying to do?"

"I-I was trying to surprise you, with a dinner."

"Awwe, really?!"

"Yes."

"That's why I don't let you cook, Scotty!!"
