Untamed Heart Page #5

We know he has a congenital defect.

And we do favour,

at some point, a transplant.

It's been left untreated for far too long.

He should remain stable

until a proper donor is available.

And how long can that take?

That we don't know.

He's sedated now,

but he became very upset before,

when we were talking about going in

to relieve the pressure on his heart.

It took two orderlies, two nurses

and myself just to hold him down.

We were surprised

that didn't kill him right there,

what with all the trauma he's experienced.

However, that's also

a very good sign of hope,

that he's more than strong enough

and he can go on living for quite some

time with treatment for what he's got.

Good evening.

Are you with the lady in there?

- Yes. Yes, she's my best friend.

- OK.

- Number five and number seven.

- You positive?

- Number five and number seven.

- Thank you.

Just step over here and we'll get

the paperwork out of the way.

You're not taking off too much, are you?

No.

I only want a trim.

Did you hear me, young lady?

Yeah, I heard you. You told me.

I can't believe I gotta do this today.

I can't take this freakin' lady.

I know. Just try to calm down.

You can't work a miracle,

so just do what you can. Hang tough.

I know you're being tested today. I hope

you're not trying to impress anybody.

All I want is a trim.

It's too cold out yet for short hair.

Mm-hm. Just keep your head still.

Should we maybe involve

your instructor in this,

and she could make sure you don't

make a disaster area out of my hair, hm?

Why'd you stop?

You're not butchering it, are you? I

wouldn't like to have you butcher my hair.

I'm not butchering your hair.

It's a free haircut.

So stop your bitchin'

before I cut it all off, you fat cow!

Thanks!

(phone rings)

- (Cindy) What?

- Can you drive me over to the hospital?

I don't have a car, nobody's home,

and I really wanna see Adam.

When do they open?

I don't know.

Never mind. He's here.

Adam!

What are you doin' here?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean

to upset you, Caroline.

I was so scared.

Are you OK? Are you OK?

You wanna come inside?

You want me to get you something to eat?

You want some breakfast?

The stitches, your stitches.

I bet you're sore.

I'm supposed to be giving you flowers.

They're beautiful.

What'd the doctor say?

I'm not allowed to stick

knives in my stomach.

Very funny. You could have been killed.

They caught the guys who did it to you.

Do the police know what they did to you?

Yeah. I told them.

We'll probably both have to go to court.

Did you have your beauty exam today?

Yeah, but...

it just...

Forget it. It was just a stupid licence.

I was no good at it anyway.

Don't say that.

So... the doctor told you

you're gonna have to have a transplant?

- Adam.

- No. They're wrong.

Adam, the heart you have is diseased.

No one is taking away my heart.

You were just a kid. It was just a story.

You're gonna die someday

if you don't do something about it.

But this is my heart.

I don't want you to die. I love you.

I was...

I was wondering if you think about me.

Of course I think about you.

I wasn't finished.

Finish.

I was wondering if you think about me...

half as much as I think about you.

I, uh... have to tell you something.

It might make you angry.

Look at me.

I watch you sleep sometimes.

The tree - it wasn't the first time

I was in your room.

Or the last.

You come into my room?

The basement under the porch.

To watch me sleep?

Why?

You have peace.

I don't.

My sleep, it's always the same dream.

The jungle.

Dreary, twisted limbs. Strangling vines.

And rain.

Always the rain.

I feel suffocated.

Despair.

Despair of just trying to survive.

Despair and no peace.

I'm... afraid if they take away my heart,

I won't be able to love you the same.

You are my peace.

Oh, my God.

You love with your mind and your soul,

not actually with your heart.

It's just a saying.

Why does it hurt so much here when...

you're not with me?

(knock at door)

Happy... happy birthday!

Come here. You're so beautiful.

You get this.

You get this.

And you get this.

Go get your coat.

- Where are we going?

- It's a surprise.

- What's that?

- It's a present for you.

- For me?

- Don't open it.

It's a surprise.

We can open it later together.

You got... you got me

a present on your birthday?

- I have fallen...

- Did you hurt yourself?

I wasn't finished.

I have fallen so in love with you.

So much more than I told you I would.

All right.

OK.

Come on.

Clear it out! Clear it out!

Clear it out!

- Yeah!

- Oh!

North Stars! North Stars! Yeah!

I can't believe you caught a puck.

That's, like... It's, like, never happened.

Amazing.

You're amazing.

Thank you for taking me, Caroline.

I didn't know if you'd like it.

You know what I like.

I'm glad you like it as much as me.

- I love hockey.

- (laughs)

You didn't even know

what a power play was.

I know, but the next time we go

you can tell me,

and I'll catch another one of these for you.

It was a good game, huh?

Yeah. A good game.

Hey.

Baby. Wake up.

We're home.

Hey.

Wake up. Wake up.

Sweetie. We're home.

Hey!

Hey.

(dog barks)

(sobs)

(priest) If I give away all my possessions,

if I hand over my body so I may boast,

but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind.

Love is not envious or boastful

or arrogant or rude.

It does not insist on its own way.

It is not irritable or resentful.

It does not rejoice in wrongdoing,

but rejoices in the truth.

It bears all things, believes all things,

hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends.

But as for prophecies,

they will come to an end.

As for tongues, they will cease.

As for knowledge, it will come to an end.

For we only know in part,

and we prophecy only in part.

But when the complete comes,

the partial will come to an end.

I love you.

You're family.

Good.

You're lucky. I love you too.

Luck has nothing to do with it.

He was like an angel, you know?

I never knew life could be like that.

He was the one thing I followed through

with, the one thing I didn't give up on.

And I was good at loving him.
